Additional quotes by Gaius Valerius Flaccus

Prima deum magnis canimus freta pervia natis
fatidicamque ratem, Scythici quae Phasidis oras
ausa sequi mediosque inter iuga concita cursus
rumpere flammifero tandem consedit Olympo.

Saepe suas misero promittere destinat artes,
denegat atque una potius decernit in ira
ac neque tam turpi cessuram semet amori
proclamat.

Percutit ore lyram nomenque relinquit harenis.
