LatinViaFables.com: I'm continuing to work my way through the 15th-century Latin fables of Abstemius! With each fable I'm posting the Latin text, a segmented Latin text, along with an English translation by me, plus the rollicking 17th-century translation by Sir Roger L'Estrange. Today's fable is De Sue et Cane: Pig and Dog. If this fable gives any insight into Latin as it was taught in the Renaissance, the poor kids were getting beaten up and having their ears pulled on a regular basis!
