Aera domi non sunt, superest hoc, Regule, solum,
ut tua vendamus munera: numquid emis? I have not a copper at home; This one thing alone remains, Regulus, To sell your presents: Are you a buyer? In casa non c’รจ un soldo; null’altro mi resta, o Regolo, che vendere i tuoi regali. Vuoi comperarli tu? |
Martial, Epigrams, Book 7, XVI
