82 P.L.M.
Non satis est quod nos mergit 1 furiosa iuventus
transversosque rapit fama sepulta probris?
En 2 etiamfamuli cognataque faece caterva 3
inter conrasas luxuriantur opes. 4
Vilis servus habet regni bona, cellaque capti
deridet Vestam Romuleamque casam.
Idcirco virtus medio iacet obruta caeno,
nequitiae classes candida vela ferunt.
