Valpy (whose edition I have) cannot quite follow Virgil?s plough?in its construction at least.  But the main acts of agriculture seem to have changed very little, and the alternation of green and corn crops is a good dodge.  And while I heard the fellows going out with their horses to plough as I sat at breakfast this morning, I also read?
Libra die somnique pares ubi fecerit horas,
Et medium luci atque umbris jam dividit orbem,
Exercete, viri, tauros, serite hordea campis
Usque sub extremum brum? intractabilis imbrem. 
One loves Virgil somehow."
