On the vine.
Non erudiendos privatim adolescentes.
The young should not be educated in solitary confinement.
Incrementa parit votro [=botro]
vicinia botri,
Inque vicem auxilium praestat uterque sibi.
Mollior obscura iuvenis ne discat in umbra,
Sed studiis comitem comparet ille suis.
Proximity to a grape[vine] promotes a richer crop in another vine, and in reciprocation each provides a benefit for itself. Callow youth ought not to do its learning in deep shadow: Let [a boy] have a companion for his studying.
