"Arepo the Sower holds the wheels at work."? I don't think so. Opera is plural, works, and nominative, vocative or accusative. Nominative won't give you any sense, vocative not much better. Accusative makes most sense, which would put it in apposition to rotas: "holds the wheels, his works". [[User:Peter Jackson|Peter Jackson]] 11:07, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
