Note 37 — Chapter II
William P. (William Purdie) Dickson translation
The choliambics (i. 61) run thus:—
Verona docti syllabas amat vatis, Marone felix Mantua est, Censetur Apona Livio suo tellus Stellaque nec Flacco minus, Apollodoro plaudit imbrifer Nilus, Nasone Peligni sonant, Duosque Senecas unicumque Lucanum Facunda loquitur Corduba, Gaudent iocosae Canio suo Gades, Emerita Deciano meo: Te, Liciniane, gloriabitur nostra, Nec me tacebit Bilbilis.
