"les faictz merveilleux de virgile. " Virgilius, on coming to settle at Rome, made acquaintance with the Emperor's master of the horse, and by his skill in medicine treated successfully various diseases and distempers in the Imperial stables. One day it so happened that the Emperor, havino- received from the ambassadors of a far country the gift of a splendid and apparently very valuable horse, called upon Virgilius, as a judge, to give his opinion. "Sire, " replied Virgilius, after careful in-... spection of all its points, " the steed is indeed well made, but unfortunately it has been reared on asses' milk, and will therefore never be either swift or spirited. " The Emperor, misdoubting the verdict, caused inquiry to be made of the ambassadors, who confessed that the foal, having lost its dam, had indeed been reared by an ass. Struck by the con- firmation of Virgilius' opinion, the Emperor com- manded that daily allowance should be made to him at the expense of the State of half a loaf.
