Gentlemen’s agreement (拉丁语)

Triginta tibi sunt pueri totidemque puellae:
una est nec surgit mentula. Quid facies?

You have thirty boys and as many girls:
And one cock, and it won’t stand. What will you do?

Hai trenta ragazzi e altrettante ragazze
sotto mira.
Ma che farai tu con un cazzo solo
che non tira?

Martial, Epigrams, Book 12, LXXXVI
English translation by Robert Hughes
Italian translation by Franco Zagato
