Est homini, cum se cogitat esse pium,
| 48,323 |
Nec sanctam violasse fidem, nec foedere in ullo
| 48,323 |
Divum ad fallendos numine abusum homines, etc.
| 48,323 |
Another, and less admirable, side of the nature of Catullus is
| 48,323 |
Quis hoc potest videre, quis potest pati.
| 48,323 |
Nisi impudicus et vorax et aleo, etc.--
| 48,323 |
and in the less vigorous but much more offensive 57th poem.
| 48,323 |
Catullus in these poems expresses the animosity which the 'boni'
| 48,323 |
Et ille nunc superbus et superfluens
| 48,323 |
Perambulabit omnium cubilia, etc.
| 48,323 |
Irascere iterum meis iambis
| 48,323 |
Inmerentibus, unice imperator,--
| 48,323 |
Nam castum esse decet pium poetam
| 48,323 |
Ipsum, versiculos nihil necesse est.
| 48,323 |
language.
| 48,323 |
O Colonia, quae cupis ponte ludere magno,--
| 48,323 |
which has some touches of graceful poetry as well as of humourous
| 48,323 |
Quoi cum sit viridissimo nupta flore puella
| 48,323 |
(Et puella tenellulo delicatior haedo,
| 48,323 |
Asservanda nigerrimis diligentius uvis),--
| 48,323 |
Munus hoc mihi maximi da, Colonia, risus--
| 48,323 |
Chommoda dicebat, si quando commoda vellet
| 48,323 |
Dicere, et insidias Arrius hinsidias, etc.
| 48,323 |
Just as the ears of men had recovered from this infliction--
| 48,323 |
Subito affertur nuntius horribilis,
| 48,323 |
Ionios fluctus, postquam illuc Arrius isset,
| 48,323 |
Iam non Ionios esse, sed Hionios.
| 48,323 |
Like fastidious and irritable poets of other times (Horace, Pope,
| 48,323 |
Dii magni, horribilem ac sacrum libellum.
| 48,323 |
friends, who, though in other respects a man of sense, wit, and
| 48,323 |
Plenam veneni et pestilentiae.
| 48,323 |
About one half of the shorter poems, and more than half of the
| 48,323 |
epigrams, are to be classed among his personal lampoons or light
| 48,323 |
satiric pieces. Many of these show Catullus to us on that side of
| 48,323 |
Iam ver egelidos refert tepores,--
| 48,323 |
Phaselus ille quem videtis, hospites,--
| 48,323 |
Iam mens praetrepidans avet vagari,
| 48,323 |
with which a cultivated mind forecasts the pleasure of travelling
| 48,323 |
Aut quam sidera multa, cum facet nox,
| 48,323 |
Furtivos hominum vident amores,--
| 48,323 |
Velut prati
| 48,323 |
Ultimi flos, praetereunte postquam
| 48,323 |
Tactus aratro est;--
| 48,323 |
Nec sapit pueri instar
| 48,323 |
Bimuli, tremula patris dormientis in ulna,--
| 48,323 |
Et puella tenellulo delicatior haedo,
| 48,323 |
Adservanda nigerrimis diligentius uvis.
| 48,323 |
But the great charm of the style in these shorter poems is its
| 48,323 |
Miser Catulle desinas ineptire,--
| 48,323 |
Vivamus, mea Lesbia, atque amemus,--
| 48,323 |
Acmen Septimius suos amores,--
| 48,323 |
Verani, omnibus e meis amicis,--
| 48,323 |
Iam ver egelidos refert tepores,--
| 48,323 |
Paene insularum Sirmio insularumque,--
| 48,323 |
Miser Catulle, desinas ineptire,--
| 48,323 |
we apprehend through a perfectly pure medium, and by a single
| 48,323 |
Minister vetuli puer Falerni
| 48,323 |
Inger mi calices amariores, etc.
| 48,323 |
'In profuse strains of unpremeditated art.'
| 48,323 |
Ne diu taceat procax
| 48,323 |
Fescennina locutio--
| 48,323 |
Quos Hamadryades deae
| 48,323 |
Ludicrum sibi roscido
| 48,323 |
Nutriunt humore,--
| 48,323 |
Alba parthenice velut
| 48,323 |
Luteumve papaver--
| 48,323 |
the symbol of maidens--
| 48,323 |
'Whom youth makes so fair and passion so pale.'
| 48,323 |
The grace of trees and the bloom of flowers were prized by him
| 48,323 |
among the fairest things in Nature. The charm in woman which most
| 48,323 |
the Epithalamium of Peleus and Thetis, he compares Ariadne in her
| 48,323 |
Quales Eurotae progignunt flumina myrtos
| 48,323 |
Aurave distinctos educit verna colores.
| 48,323 |
Viden ut faces
| 48,323 |
Splendidas quatiunt comas?
| 48,323 |
The two pictures, further on in the poem, of a peaceful old age
| 48,323 |
prolonged to the utmost limit of human life--
| 48,323 |
Usque dum tremulum movens
| 48,323 |
Cana tempus anilitas
| 48,323 |
Omnia omnibus annuit--
| 48,323 |
and of infancy, awakening into consciousness and affection,--
| 48,323 |
Torquatus volo parvulus
| 48,323 |
Matris e gremio suae
| 48,323 |
Porrigens teneras manus,
| 48,323 |
Dulce rideat ad patrem
| 48,323 |
Semihiante labello.
| 48,323 |
Sit suo similis patri
| 48,323 |
Manlio et facile insciis
| 48,323 |
Noscitetur ab omnibus,
| 48,323 |
Et pudicitiam suae
| 48,323 |
Matris indicet ore.
| 48,323 |
are drawn with the truest and most delicate hand.
| 48,323 |
Idem cum tenui carptus defloruit ungui,
| 48,323 |
Nulli illum pueri, nullae optavere puellae,--
| 48,323 |
οἵαν τὰν ὑάκινθον ἐν ὤρεσι ποίμενες ἄνδρες
| 48,323 |
πόσσι καταστείβοισι, χάμαι δέ τε πόρφυρον ἄνθος.
| 48,323 |
'Grows, lives, and dies in single blessedness;'
| 48,323 |
Iam iam contingit summum radice flagellum,--
| 48,323 |
Sed ubi oris aurei Sol radiantibus oculis
| 48,323 |
Lustravit aethera album, sola dura, mare ferum,
