That man, if it is appropriate, seems to surpass the gods,
who sitting opposite sees and hears you
over and over
sweetly laughing, which seizes all senses
from wretched me:
nothing remains of the
voice in my mouth
but my tongue is numb, the thin flame glides down
under my joints, my ears are ringing with
their own noise, twin lights are covered
over by night
leisure, Catullus, is a trouble for you:
you rejoice and
leisure destroyed both former kings
and prosperous cities.
