Nosti mortiferum quaestoris, Castrice, signum?
Est operae pretium discere theta nouum:
exprimeret quotiens rorantem frigore nasum,
letalem iuguli iusserat esse notam.
Turpis ab inuiso pendebat stiria naso,
cum flaret media fauce December atrox:
collegae tenuere manus: quid plura requiris?
Emungi misero, Castrice, non licuit.
