Tibullus
Albius Tibullus was a Latin poet and writer of elegies. His first and second books of poetry are extant; many other texts attributed to him are of questionable origins.
"Quis fuit, horrendos primus qui protulit enses? quam ferus et vere ferreus ille fuit!"
"Esteem all things that are good."
"Nec iurare time: veneris periuria venti inrita per terras et freta summa ferunt. gratia magna Iovi: vetuit Pater ipse valere, iurasset cupide quidquid ineptus amor."
"When thou art preparing to commit a sin, think not that thou wilt conceal it; there is a God that forbids crimes to be hidden."
"Credula vitam spes fovet et fore cras semper ait melius."
"Atque aliquis senior veteres veneratus amores annua constructo serta dabit tumulo, et "bene" discedens dicet "placideque quiescas, terraque securae sit super ossa levis."
"The elegant, the tender, and the passionate Tibullus."
"Te spectem, suprema mihi cum venerit hora, Et teneam moriens deficiente manu."
"Audendum est: fortes adiuvat ipsa Venus."
"Te propter nullos tellus tua postulat imbres, arida nec pluvio supplicat herba Iovi."
"Fear not to swear; the winds carry the perjuries of lovers without effect over land and sea, thanks to Jupiter. The father of the gods himself has denied effect to what foolish lovers in their eagerness have sworn."
"I could live in the woods with thee in sight, Where never should human foot intrude: Or with thee find light in the darkest night, And a social crowd in solitude. Dare to act! Even Venus aids the bold."
