Catullus 70

Question 1

Nulli se dicit mulier mea nubere malle quam mihi, non si se Iuppiter ipse petat. dicit: sed mulier cupido quod dicit amanti, in vento et rapida scribere oportet aqua

Answer 1

My woman says that she prefers to marry no one than me, not if Juppiter himself should not seek her. But what a woman says to a desirous lover, it is right to write in the wind and rapid water.
