| Although the estate is small, it is of great value to the family, because there work and rest go well together. | Quamvis praedium parvum sit, magni pretii est familiae, quia ibi et labor et quies inter se conveniunt. |
| Mother says that the woman farmer is not only very hardworking, but also very patient. | Mater dicit colonam non solum magnae industriae, sed etiam magnae patientiae esse. |
| When they have returned from the market, everyone will be tired but content, because the vehicle will be full and the house will have bread, pears, and fresh grape juice. | Cum ex nundinis redierint, omnes fessi sed contenti erunt, quia vehiculum plenum erit et domus panem, pira, ac mustum habebit. |
| Thus the girl learns both how farmers live in a village and why a small estate, if it is well cared for, can be useful to everyone. | Sic puella discit et quomodo in pago vivant coloni et cur parvum praedium, si bene curetur, omnibus utile esse possit. |
