Odes

Horace

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

  • Weeping and praying to the shore she clings,
  • Nor ever thence her straining eyesight turns:
  • So, smit by loyal passion's restless stings,
  • Rome for her Caesar yearns.
