Strona 53 - ... remission of sentence, And even this infamy would not attract numerous readers Were there an erudite or violent passion, For the nobleness of the populace brooks nothing below its own altitude. One must have resonance, resonance and sonority . . . like a goose. Varro sang Jason's expedition, Varro, of his great passion Leucadia, There is song in the parchment; Catullus the highly indecorous, Of Lesbia, known above Helen; And in the dyed pages of Calvus, Calvus mourning Quintilia, And but now...
Strona 34 - Callimachi Manes et Coi sacra Philetae, in vestrum, quaeso, me sinite ire nemus. Primus ego ingredior puro de fonte sacerdos Itala per Graios orgia ferre choros.
