Vnus de toto peccauerat orbe comarum
anulus, incerta non bene fixus acu:
hoc facinus Lalage speculo, quo uiderat, ulta est,
et cecidit saeuis icta Plecusa comis.
Desine iam, Lalage, tristes ornare capillos,
tangat et insanum nulla puella caput.
Hoc salamandra notet uel saeua nouacula nudet,
ut digna speculo fiat imago tua.
