Ede tuos tandem populo, Faustine, libellos
et cultum docto pectore profer opus,
quod nec Cecropiae damnent Pandionis arces
nec sileant nostri praetereantque senes.
Ante fores stantem dubitas admittere Famam
teque piget curae praemia ferre tuae?
Post te uicturae per te quoque uiuere chartae
incipiant: cineri gloria sera uenit.
