<A PERSIUS>
<T PROLOGVS>
<L1>
Nec fonte labra prolui caballino
nec in bicipiti somniasse Parnaso
memini, ut repente sic poeta prodirem
Heliconidasque pallidamque Pirenen
illis remitto quorum imagines lambunt
hedarae sequaces; ipse semipaganus
ad sacra uatum carmen adfero nostrum.
quis expediuit psittaco suum 'chaere'
picamque docuit nostra uerba conari?
magister artis ingenique largitor
uenter, negatas artifex sequi uoces.
quod si dolosi spes refulserit nummi,
coruos poetas et poetridas picas
cantare credas Pegaseium nectar.
<S 1>
<L1>
O CVRAS hominum! o quantum est in rebus inane!
'quis leget haec?' min tu istud ais? nemo hercule. 'nemo?'
uel duo uel nemo. 'turpe et miserabile. quare?
ne mihi Polydamas et Troiades Labeonem
praetulerint? nugae. non, si quid turbida Roma
eleuet, accedas examenue inprobum in illa
castiges trutina nec te quaesiueris extra
nam Romae quis non-a, si fas dicere-sed fas
tum cum ad canitiem et nostrum istud uiuere triste
aspexi ac nucibus facimus quaecumque rel . . .
