Side 287 - Hast thou given the horse strength? Hast thou clothed his neck with thunder? Canst thou make him afraid as a grasshopper? The glory of his nostrils is terrible. He paweth in the valley, and rejoiceth in his strength: He goeth on to meet the armed men.
Side 75 - And all their echoes mourn. The willows and the hazel copses green Shall now no more be seen Fanning their joyous leaves to thy soft lays. As killing as the canker to the rose...
Side 22 - Vel quae sublegi tacitus tibi carmina nuper, Cum te ad delicias ferres Amaryllida nostras : 'Tityre, dum redeo (brevis est via) pasee capellas, Et potum pastas age, Tityre, et inter agendum Occursare capro (cornu ferit ille) caveto.
Side 158 - For not to have been dipt in Lethe lake Could save the sonne of Thetis from to die...
Side 41 - Malo me Galatea petit, lasciva puella, et fugit ad salices, et se cupit ante videri.

Side 58 - Vare, tuum nomen, superet modo Mantua nobis, Mantua vae miserae nimium vicina Cremonae, cantantes sublime ferent ad sidera cycni.' L. Sic tua Cyrneas fugiant examina taxos, 30 sic cytiso pastae distendant ubera vaccae : incipe, si quid habes. Et me fecere poetam Pierides, sunt et mihi carmina, me quoque dicunt vatem pastores ; sed non ego credulus illis. Nam neque adhuc Vario videor nec dicere Cinna 35 digna, sed argutos inter strepere anser olores.
