Catullus

Catullus, Gaius Valerius. The Carmina of Caius Valerius Catullus. Burton, Sir Richard Francis, translator. London, Printed for the Translators, 1894.

  1. Ah say whate'er shall humans do? in whom shall man show faith?
  2. For sure thou bad'st me safely yield my spirit (wretch!) to thee,
  3. Lulling my love as though my life were all security.
  4. The same now dost withdraw thyself and every word and deed
  5. Thou suffer'st winds and airy clouds to sweep from out thy head.
