Odes

Horace

Horace. The Odes and Carmen Saeculare of Horace. Conington, John, translator. London: George Bell and Sons, 1882.

  • Though Phoebus thrice in brazen mail
  • Should case her towers, they thrice should fall,
  • Storm'd by my Greeks: thrice wives should wail
  • Husband and son, themselves in thrall.”—
