Floribus austrum + perditus et liquidis inmisi fontibus apros. + Quem fugis, ah, demens? Habitarunt di quoque silvas, + Dardaniusque Paris. Pallas, quas condidit arces, + ipsa colat; nobis placeant ante omnia silvae. + Torva leaena lupum sequitur; lupus ipse capellam; + florentem cytisum sequitur lasciva capella; + te Corydon, o Alexi: trahit sua quemque voluptas. + Aspice, aratra iugo referunt suspensa iuvenci, + et sol crescentis decedens duplicat umbras: + me tamen urit amor; quis enim modus adsit amori? + Ah, Corydon, Corydon, quae te dementia cepit! + Semiputata tibi frondosa vitis in ulmo est; + quin tu aliquid saltem potius, quorum indiget usus, + viminibus mollique paras detexere iunco? + Invenies alium, si te hic fastidit, Alexim. + + + +III.

Non tu in triviis, indocte, solebas + stridenti miserum stipula disperdere carmen? + + _D._ Vis ergo inter nos quid possit uterque vicissim + experiamur? Ego hanc vitulam--ne forte recuses, + bis venit ad mulctram, binos alit ubere fetus-- + depono: tu dic, mecum quo pignore certes. + + _M._ De grege non ausim quicquam deponere tecum. + Est mihi namque domi pater, est iniusta noverca; + bisque die numerant ambo pecus, alter et haedos. + Verum, id quod multo tute ipse fatebere maius, + insanire libet quoniam tibi, pocula ponam + fagina, caelatum divini opus Alcimedontis; + lenta quibus torno facili superaddita vitis + diffusos hedera vestit pallente corymbos: + in medio duo signa, Conon, et--quis fuit alter, + descripsit radio totum qui gentibus orbem, + tempora quae messor, quae curvus arator haberet? + Necdum illis labra admovi, sed condita servo. + + _D._ Et nobis idem Alcimedon duo pocula fecit, + et molli circum est ansas amplexus acantho, + Orpheaque in medio posuit silvasque sequentis. + Necdum illis labra admovi, sed condita servo: + si ad vitulam spectas, nihil est quod pocula laudes. + + _M._ Nunquam hodie effugies; veniam, quocumque vocari + audiat haec tantum--vel qui venit ecce Palaemon + efficiam posthac ne quemquam voce lacessas. + + _D._ Quin age, si quid habes, in me mora non erit ulla, + nec quemquam fugio: tantum, vicine Palaemon, + sensibus haec imis, res est non parva, reponas. + P. Dicite, quandoquidem in molli consedimus herba: + et nunc omnis ager, nunc omnis parturit arbos, + nunc frondent silvae, nunc formosissimus annus. + Incipe, Darmoeta; tu deinde sequere Menalca: + alternis dicetis; amant alterna Camenae. + + _D._ Ab Iove principium, Musae; Iovis omnia plena: + ille colit terras, illi mea carmina curae. + + _M._ Et me Phoebus amat; Phoebo sua semper apud me + munera sunt, lauri et suave rubens hyacinthus. + + _D._ Malo me Galatea petit, lasciva puella, + et fugit ad salices, et se cupit ante videri. + + _M._ At mihi sese offert ultro, meus ignis, Amyntas, + notior ut iam sit canibus non Delia nostris. + + _D._ Parta meae Veneri sunt munera: namque notavi + ipse locum, aeriae quo congessere palumbes. + + _M._ Quod potui, puero silvestri ex arbore lecta + aurea mala decem misi; cras altera mittam. + + _D._ O quotiens et quae nobis Galatea locuta est! + partem aliquam, venti, divom referatis ad auris! + + _M._ Quid prodest, quod me ipse animo non spernis, Amynta. + si, dum tu sectaris apros, ego retia servo? + + _D._ Phyllida mitte mihi: meus est natalis, Iolla; + cum faciam vitula pro frugibus, ipse venito. + + _M._ Phyllida amo ante alias; nam me discedere flevit, + et longum 'formose, vale, vale,' inquit, 'Iolla.' + + _D._ Triste lupus stabulis, maturis frugibus imbres. + arboribus venti, nobis Amaryllidis irae. + + _M._ Dulce satis umor, depulsis arbutus haedis, + lenta salix feto pecori, mihi solus Amyntas. + + _D._ Pollio amat nostram, quamvis est rustica, Musam: + Pierides vitulam lectori pascite vestro. + + _M._ Pollio et ipse facit nova carmina: pascite taurum, + iam cornu petat et pedibus qui spargat arenam. + + _D._ Qui te, Pollio, amat, veniat quo te quoque gaudet: + mella fluant illi, ferat et rubus asper amomum. + + _M._ Qui Bavium non odit, amet tua carmina, Maevi, + atque idem iungat vulpes et mulgeat hircos. + + _D._ Qui legitis flores et humi nascentia fraga, + frigidus, O pueri, fugite hinc, latet anguis in herba. + + _M._ Parcite, oves, nimium procedere; non bene ripae + creditur; ipse aries etiam nunc vellera siccat. + + _D._ Tityre, pascentes a flumine reice capellas: + ipse ubi tempus erit, omnis in fonte lavabo. + + _M._ Cogite ovis, pueri; si lac praeceperit aestus, + ut nuper, frustra pressabimus ubera palmis. + + _D._ Heu, heu, quam pingui macer est mihi taurus in ervo! + Idem amor exitium est pecori pecorisque magistro. + + _M._ His certe neque amor causa est; vix ossibus haerent. + nescio quis teneros oculus mihi fascinat agnos. + + _D._ Dic, quibus in terris--et eris mihi magnus Apollo-- + tris pateat caeli spatium non amplius ulnas. + + _M._ Dic, quibus in terris inscripti nomina regum + nascantur flores, et Phyllida solus habeto. + P.

MENALCAS, MOPSUS + + _Me._ CUR non, Mopse, boni quoniam convenimus ambo, + tu calamos inflare levis, ego dicere versus, + hic corylis mixtas inter consedimus ulmos? + + _Mo._ Tu maior; tibi me est aequum parere, Menalca, + sive sub incertas zephyris motantibus umbras, + sive antro potius succedimus: aspice, ut antrum + silvestris raris sparsit labrusca racemis. + + _Me._ Montibus in nostris solus tibi certat Amyntas. + + _Mo._ Quid, si idem certet Phoebum superare canendo? + + _Me._ Incipe, Mopse, prior, si quos aut Phyllidis ignes, + aut Alconis habes laudes, aut iurgia Codri: + incipe, pascentis servabit Tityrus haedos. + + _Mo._ Immo haec, in viridi nuper quae cortice fagi + carmina descripsi et modulans alterna notavi, + experiar, tu deinde iubeto ut certet Amyntas. + + _Me._ Lenta salix quantum pallenti cedit olivae, + puniceis humilis quantum saliunca rosetis, + iudicio nostro tantum tibi cedit Amyntas. + sed tu desine plura, puer; successimus antro. + + _Mo._ Extinctum nymphae crudeli funere Daphnim + flebant; vos coryli testes et flumina nymphis; + cum complexa sui corpus miserabile nati, + atque deos atque astra vocat crudelia mater. + Non ulli pastos illis egere diebus + frigida, Daphni, boves ad flumina; nulla neque amnem + libavit quadrupes, nec graminis attigit herbam. + Daphni, tuum Poenos etiam ingemuisse leones + interitum montesque feri silvaeque loquuntur. + Daphnis et Armenias curru subiungere tigres + instituit; Daphnis thiasos inducere Bacchi, + et foliis lentas intexere mollibus hastas. + Vitis ut arboribus decori est, ut vitibus uvae, + ut gregibus tauri, segetes ut pinguibus arvis, + tu decus omne tuis. Postquam te fata tulerunt, + ipsa Pales agros atque ipse reliquit Apollo. + Grandia saepe quibus mandavimus hordea sulcis, + infelix lolium et steriles nascuntur avenae; + pro molli viola, pro purpureo narcisso, + carduus et spinis surgit paliurus acutis. + Spargite humum foliis, inducite fontibus umbras, + pastores, mandat fieri sibi talia Daphnis; + et tumulum facite, et tumulo superaddite carmen: + DAPHNIS EGO IN SILVIS HINC VSQUE AD SIDERA NOTVS + + FORMONSI PECORIS CVSTOS FORMONSIOR IPSE. + + _Me._ Tale tuum carmen nobis, divine poeta, + quale sopor fessis in gramine, quale per aestum + dulcis aquae saliente sitim restinguere rivo: + nec calamis solum aequiparas, sed voce magistrum. + [Fortunate puer, tu nunc eris alter ab illo.] + Nos tamen haec quocumque modo tibi nostra vicissim + dicemus, Daphnimque tuum tollemus ad astra; + Daphnin ad astra feremus: amavit nos quoque Daphnis. + + _Mo._ An quicquam nobis tali sit munere maius + Et puer ipse fuit cantari dignus, et ista + iam pridem Stimichon laudavit carmina nobis. + + _Me._ Candidus insuetum miratur limen Olympi, + sub pedibusque videt nubes et sidera Daphnis. + ergo alacris silvas et cetera rura voluptas + Panaque pastoresque tenet, Dryadasque puellas; + nec lupus insidias pecori, nec retia cervis + ulla dolum meditantur: amat bonus otia Daphnis. + ipsi laetitia voces ad sidera iactant + intonsi montes; ipsae iam carmina rupes, + ipsa sonant arbusta: 'Deus, deus ille, Menalca.' + Sis bonus O felixque tuis!

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit https://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. |
