CERES Earth's increase, foison plenty, Barns and garners never empty, Vines and clustering bunches growing, Plants with goodly burthen bowing; Spring come to you at the farthest In the very end of harvest! Scarcity and want shall shun you; Ceres' blessing so is on you.

Junos och Ceres Sång
Language: Swedish (Svenska) after the English
JUNO Ära guld till deras fromma, ålderdom och barn och blomma, allt vad jordisk glädje ger, önskar Juno över er! CERES Rika tegar äng i blomma, loft och lador aldrig tomma, druvor svällande och mogna ax till skörden redobogna. Knappt må hösten gå i graven förrän våren är i saven! Brist och nöd må fly från er, önskar Ceres över er.
