Marcus Annaeus Lucanus,de bello civili,liber IX. In:Lucan with an English translation by J. D. Duff; The Civil War Books I–X (Pharsalia), 1962, p. 536f.:
Temperies vitalis abest, et nulla sub illa Cura Iovis terra est; naturadeside torpet Orbis et inmotis annum non sentit harenis.
The temperate air that life needs is not found there, and Jupiter pays no heed to the land; Nature isinactive; the lifeless expanse, with sands that are never ploughed, is unconscious of the seasons.
Publius Papinius Statius,Silvae,liber V. In:Statius with an English translation by J. H. Mozley, vol. I of two volumes, 1928, p. 292f.:
Iamque alio moliris iter necdeside passu ire paras; nondum validae tibi signa iuventae inrepsere genis, et adhuc tenor integer aevi.
And now thou art planning a journey to other lands, and art preparing to be gone with nosluggish stride; not yet have the signs of vigorous manhood crept about thy cheeks, blameless still is the tenour of thy life.
Publius Papinius Statius,Thebais,liber VI. In:Statius with an English translation by J. H. Mozley, vol. II of two volumes, 1928, p. 70f.:
primitias egomet lacrimarum et caedis acerbae ante tubas ferrumque tuli, dumdeside cura credo sinus fidos altricis et ubera mando.
Tis I that have borne the first-fruits of grief and untimely death, before even trumpets brayed or sword was drawn, while inindolent neglect I put faith in his nurse's bosom and entrusted to her my babe to suckle.
Forsitan hunc aliquis verbosum dicere librum Non dubitet; forsan multo praestantior alter Pauca reperta putet, cum plura invenerit ipse. Deses et impatiens nimis haec obscura putabit. Pro captu lectoris habent sua fata libelli.
Perhaps someone will not hesitate to call this book wordy; perhaps another person may consider a few findings much better, when he himself has found too much. Alazy and impatient person will consider these things too unclear. Books have their fates according to the reader's ability.
