AUSONIUS LIB. EPIG. <br /> <br />Trinarii quodam currentem in littoris ora <br /> Ante canes leporem caeruleus rapuit; <br />At lepus: in me omnis terrae pelagique rapina est, <br /> Forsitan et coeli, si canis astra tenet. <br /> <br /> ENGLISHED. <br /> <br />On the Sicilian strand a hare well wrought <br />Before the hounds was by a dog-fish caught; <br />Quoth she: all rape of sea and earth's on me, <br />Perhaps of heav'n, if there a dog-star be.<br /><br />Richard Lovelace<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/ausonius-lib-epig/
