Heredem cum me partis tibi, Garrice, quartae
per tua iurares sacra caputque tuum,
credidimus - quis enim damnet sua vota libenter? -
et spem muneribus fovimus usque datis;
inter quae rari Laurentem ponderis aprum
misimus: Aetola de Calydone putes.
at tu continuo populumque patresque vocasti;
ructat adhuc aprum callida Roma meum:
ipse ego - quis credat? - conviva nec ultimus haesi,
sed nec costa data est caudave missa mihi.
De quadrante tuo quid sperem, Garrice? Nulla
de nostro nobis uncia venit apro.
