Thestyle, Victoris tormentum dulce Voconi,
quo nemo est toto notior orbe puer,
sic etiam positis formonsus amere capillis
et placeat uati nulla puella tuo:
paulisper domini doctos sepone libellos,
carmina Victori dum lego parua tuo.
Et Maecenati, Maro cum cantaret Alexin,
nota tamen Marsi fusca Melaenis erat.
