Seite 197 - Barba resecta mihi bisve semelve fuit. Moverat ingenium totam cantata per Urbem Nomine non vero dicta Corinna mihi. 60 Multa quidem scripsi; sed quae vitiosa putavi, Emendaturis ignibus ipse dedi. Tunc quoque, cum fugerem, quaedam placitura cremavi, Iratus studio carminibusque meis. Molle Cupidineis nee inexpugnabile telis 65 Cor mihi, quodque levis causa moveret, erat. Cum
Seite 197 - Dum ferit Ausonia carmina culta lyra. Vergilium vidi tantum ; nee amara Tibullo Tempus amicitiae fata dedere meae. Successor fuit hie tibi, Galle; Propertius illi: Quartus ab his serie temporis ipse fui. Utque ego majores, sic me coluere minores, 55 Notaque non tarde facta Thalia mea est. Carmina cum primum populo juvenilia legi
Seite 4 - ingentes animo et dignas Jove concipit iras, conciliumque vocat; tenuit mora nulla vocatos. est via sublimis, caelo manifesta sereno : Lactea nomen habet, candore notabilis ipso, hac iter est superis ad magni tecta Tonantis regalemque domum ; dextra laevaque deorum atria nobilium valvis celebrantur apertis. plebs habitat diversa locis ; a fronte potentes caelicolae clarique suos posuere penates.
Seite 19 - forsitan et lucos illic urbesque deorum concipias animo, delubraque ditia donis esse ? per insidias iter est formasque ferarum. utque viam teneas, nulloque errore traharis, per tamen adversi gradieris cornua Tauri, 80 Haemoniosque arcus, violentique ora Leonis, saevaque circuitu curvantem bracchia longo Scorpion, atque aliter curvantem bracchia Cancrum. nee tibi quadrupedes animosos ignibus illis,
Seite 76 - instabilemque locum Delos dedit. Ilia duorum facta parens : uteri pars haec est septima nostri. \ ' Sum felix : quis enim neget hoc ? felixque manebo : hoc quoque quis dubitet ? tutam me copia fecit, major sum, quam cui possit Fortuna nocere ; 195 multaque ut eripiat, multo mihi plura relinquit. excessere metum mea jam bona. Fingite demi huic aliquid populo natorum
Seite 61 - dumque puellari studio calathosque sinumque implet, et aequales certat superare legendo, paene simul visa est dilectaque raptaque Diti: 395 usque adeo est properatus amor. Dea territa maesto et matrem et comites, sed matrem saepius, ore clamat; et ut summa vestem laniarat ab ora, collecti flores tunicis cecidere remissis. tantaque simplicitas puerilibus adfuit annis,
Seite 196 - Frater ad eloquium viridi tendebat ab aevo, Fortia verbosi natus ad arma fori; At mihi jam puero caelestia sacra placebant, Inque suum furtim Musa trahebat opus. ao Saepe pater dixit ' Studium quid inutile temptas ?

Seite 197 - firma futura toro. Ultima, quae mecum seros permansit in annos, Sustinuit conjunx exsulis esse viri. Filia me mea bis prima fecunda juventa, 75 Sed non ex uno conjuge, fecit avum; Et jam complerat genitor sua fata, novemque Addiderat lustris altera lustra novem. Non aliter flevi, quam me fleturus ademptum Ille fuit. Matri proxima justa tuli.
