Strana 212 - Sit reliqua ? ast illi tremat omento popa venter? ' Vende animam lucro ; mercare ; atque excute solers ' Omne latus mundi : ne sit praestantior alter ' Cappadocas rigidH pingues plausisse catasta.
Strana 142 - Ne pueros coram populo Medea trucidet, Aut humana palam coquat exta nefarius Atreus, Aut in avem Procne vertatur, Cadmus in anguem. Quodcunque ostendis mihi sic incredulus odi.
Strana 108 - Inspice : nescio quid trepidat mihi pectus, et aegris Faucibus exsuperat gravis halitus, inspice sodes, Qui dicit medico ; jussus requiescere, postquam Tertia compositas vidit nox currere venas, De majore domo modice sitiente lagena Lenia loturo sibi Surrentina rogavit.

Strana 168 - Unde datum hoc sumis, tot subdite rebus ? An dominum ignoras, nisi quem vindicta relaxat? 125 ' I, puer, et strigiles Crispini ad balnea defer...
Strana 157 - To-morrow you will live, you always cry; In what far country does this morrow lie, That 'tis so mighty long ere it arrive? Beyond the Indies does this morrow live? Tis so far-fetched, this morrow, that I fear Twill be both very old and very dear. To-morrow I will live, the fool does say; To-day itselfs too late, the wise lived yesterday.

Strana 114 - Visa est si forte pecunia, sive Candida vicini subrisit molle puella, Cor tibi rite salit? Positum est algente catino Durum olus, et populi cribro decussa farina; Tentemus fauces : tenero latet ulcus in ore Putre, quod haud deceat plebeia radere beta.
