Quae mihi praestiteris memini semperque tenebo.
Cur igitur taceo, Postume? Tu loqueris.
Incipio quotiens alicui tua dona referre,
protinus exclamat: "Dixerat ipse mihi."
Non belle quaedam faciunt duo: sufficit unus
huic operi: si uis ut loquar, ipse tace.
Crede mihi, quamuis ingentia, Postume, dona
auctoris pereunt garrulitate sui.
