Titus Calpurnius Siculus was a Roman bucolic poet. Eleven eclogues have been handed down to us under his name, of which the last four, from metrical considerations and express manuscript testimony, are now generally attributed to Nemesianus, who lived in the time of the emperor Carus and his sons. The separate authorship of the eclogues of Calpurnius and Nemesianus was established by Haupt.

"Aurea secura cum pace renascitur aetas et redit ad terras tandem squalore situque alma Themis positi iuvenemque beata sequuntur saecula, maternis causam qui vicit Iulis. dum populos deus ipse reget, dabit impia victas post tergum Bellona manus spoliataque telis in sua vesanos torquebit viscera morsus et, modo quae toto civilia distulit orbe, secum bella geret: nullos iam Roma Philippos deflebit, nullos ducet captiva triumphos; omnia Tartareo subigentur carcere bella immergentque caput tenebris lucemque timebunt."
