Strana 82 - Indulge Genio, carpamus dulcia, nostrum est Quod vivis : cinis et Manes et fabula fies ; [Vive memor leti, fugit hora, hoc quod loquor inde est.] " En quid agis ? duplici in diversum scinderis hamo, Hunccine an hunc sequeris.
Strana 68 - ... voce traham pura, totumque hoc verba resignent, quod latet arcana non enarrabile fibra. Cum primum pavido custos mihi purpura cessit, 30 bullaque succinctis Laribus donata pependit...
Strana 60 - ... hoc bene sit' tunicatum cum sale mordens 30 cepe et farratam pueris plaudentibus ollam pannosam faecem morientis sorbet aceti?" at si unctus cesses et figas in cute solem, est prope te ignotus cubito qui tangat et acre despuat: "hi mores!
Strana 132 - cui verba? quid istas succinis ambages? tibi luditur. effluis amens, 20 contemnere. sonat vitium percussa, maligne respondet viridi non cocta fidelia limo. udum et molle lutum es, nunc nunc properandus et acri fingendus sine fine rota, sed rure paterno est tibi far modicum, purum et sine labe salinum 25 (quid metuas?) cultrixque foci secura patella.
Strana 26 - Macrine, diem numera meliore lapillo, Qui tibi labentes apponit candidus annos; Funde merum genio. Non tu prece poscis emaci, Quae nisi seductis nequeas committere divis; At bona pars procerum tacita libabit acerra. 5 Haud cuivis promptum est murmurque humilesque susurros Tollere de templis et aperto vivere voto. Mens bona, fama, fides, haec clare et ut audiat hospes; Illa sibi introrsum et sub lingua murmurât: 0 si Ebulliat patruus, praeclarum funus!
Strana 70 - Tecum etenim longos memini consumere soles, Et tecum primas epulis decerpere noctes. Unum opus, et requiem pariter disponimus ambo, Atque verecunda laxamus seria mensa. Non equidem hoc dubites, amborum foedere certo Consentire dies, et ab uno sidere duci. Nostra vel aequali suspendit tempora Libra Parca tenax veri, seu nata fidelibus hora Dividit in Geminos concordia fata duorum: Saturnumque gravem nostro Jove frangimus una.

Strana 10 - ... quo didicisse, nisi hoc fermentum et quae semel intus innata est rupto iecore exierit caprificus?' 25 en pallor seniumque! o mores, usque adeone scire tuum nihil est nisi te scire hoc sciat alter? 'at pulchrum est digito monstrari et dicier "hic est." ten cirratorum centum dictata fuisse pro nihilo pendes?
Strana 10 - Ten' cirratorum centum dictata fuisse Pro nihilo pendas V Ecce inter pocula quaerunt 30 Romulidae saturi, quid dia poemata narrent. Hic aliquis, cui circum humeros hyacinthina laena est, Rancidulum quiddam balba de nare locutus, Phyllidas, Hypsipylas, vatum et plorabile si quid, Eliquat, et tenero supplantat verba palato.
