  1. Whom now shalt ever love? Whose wilt be called?
  2. To whom shalt kisses give? whose liplets nip?
  3. But thou (Catullus!) destiny-doomed obdure.
  1. Veranius! over every friend of me
  2. Forestanding, owned I hundred thousands three,
  3. Home to Penates and to single-soul'd
  4. Brethren, returned art thou and mother old?
  5. Yes, thou art come. Oh, winsome news come well!
