He seems to me to be equal to a god,
he, if it is allowed, seems to better the gods,
who sitting opposite you over and over again
Look at you and hear you
Sweetly laughing. In my sorry state that
snatches away all my senses: for the moment I saw
you, Lesbia, nothing is enough for me
…
But the tongue grows numb, under my limbs
Seeps a thin flame, with their own sound
my ears ring, both my eyes
are covered by night.
Free time is your trouble, Catullus:
In free time you exult and take too much pleasure:
Free time in the past has brought kings and
prosperous cities to ruin.
