Catullus 58b - Latin Version

Latin Version

Non custos si fingar ille Cretum
non si Pegaseo ferar volatu
non Ladas ego pinnipesue Perseus
non Rhesi nivease citaeque bigae
adde huc plumpipedas volatilesque
ventorumque simul require cursum
quos iunctos Cameri mihi dicares
defessus tamen omnibus medullis
et multis languaoribus peresus
essem te mihi amice quaeritando
