Aut prodesse volunt, aut delectare poetae Aut simul et jucunda et idonea dicere vitae
Centuriae seniorum agitant expertia frugis; Celsi praetereunt austera poemata Rhamnes: Omne tulit punctum qui miscuit utile dulci, Lectorem delectando, periterque monendo.
Hic meret aera liber Sosiis; hic et mare transit, Et longum noto scriptori prorogat aevum.
