vitae modo margine adultae nectere temptabat iuvenum pulcherrimus ille cum tribus Eleis unam trieterida lustris: attendit torvo tristis Rhamnusia vultu ac primum implevitque toros oculisque nitorem addidit ac solito sublimius ora levavit, heu misero letale favens, seseque videndo torsit et invidia, mortisque amplexa iacenti iniecit nexus carpsitque immitis adunca ora verenda manu.
