Lesbius est pulcer. quid ni? quem Lesbia malit
quam te cum tota gente, Catulle, tua.
sed tamen hic pulcer uendat cum gente Catullum,
si tria notorum notorum m: natorum m suauia reppererit.
Lesbius is a pretty-boy. Of course, for Lesbia prefers him to you and all your kin, Catullus. But this pretty-boy would sell Catullus and his kin as slaves if he could get three kisses from acquaintances.
