Amores 3.15 Flashcards
Quaere novum vatem, tenerorum mater Amorum! raditur hic elegis ultima meta meis: quos ego conposui, Paeligni ruris alumnus — nec me deliciae dedecuere meae — siquid id est, usque a proavis vetus ordinis heres, non modo militiae turbine factus eques.
The search for a new poet, the mother of soft love this final turning point is being scraped by my elegies! Those which I composed, a child of the Paelignian country, nor have my pleasures dishonored me. If it is anything, an old heir of rank continually from ancestors not having been made an equestrian recently by the whirlwind of military service.
Mantua Vergilio, gaudet Verona Catullo; Paelignae dicar gloria gentis ego, quam sua libertas ad honesta coegerat arma, cum timuit socias anxia Roma manus.
Mantua rejoices in Virgil, Verona rejoices in Catullus. I will be called the glory of the Paelignian race, which it’s liberty had compelled honorable arms. When anxious Rome feared the allied bands and some guests watching.
atque aliquis spectans hospes Sulmonis aquosi moenia, quae campi iugera pauca tenent, ‘Quae tantum’ dicat ‘potuistis ferre poetam, quantulacumque estis, vos ego magna voco.’
Culte puer puerique parens Amathusia culti, aurea de campo vellite signa meo!
The walls of watery Sulmona which few acres of field hold. He will say “However small you are, you were able to bear so great a poet, I call you great.” A cultivated boy, and Amathusian parent parent of the cultivated boy, pull out the golden standards from my field.
corniger increpuit thyrso graviore Lyaeus: pulsanda est magnis area maior equis. inbelles elegi, genialis Musa, valete,
post mea mansurum fata superstes opus.
Horned Bacchus has made noise with a heavier stick of Bacchus great horses must hit a larger area. Unwarlike elegies, creative Muse, farewell, the surviving work will remain after my fates.
