C. Sergius Orata pensilia balinea primus facere instituit. quae inpensa a leuibus initiis coepta ad suspensa caldae aquae tantum non aequora penetrauit. idem, uidelicet ne gulam Neptuni arbitrio subiectam haberet, peculiaria sibi maria excogitauit, aestuariis intercipiendo fluctus pisciumque diuersos greges separatim molibus includendo, ut nulla tam saeua tempestas inciderit, qua non Oratae mensae uarietate ferculorum abundarent. aedificiis etiam spatiosis et excelsis deserta ad id tempus ora Lucrini lacus pressit, quo recentiore usu conchyliorum frueretur: ubi dum se publicae aquae cupidius inmergit, cum Considio publicano iudicium nanctus est. in quo L. Crassus aduersus illum causam agens errare amicum suum Considium dixit, quod putaret Oratam remotum a lacu cariturum ostreis: namque ea, si inde petere non licuisset, in tegulis reperturum.
