XIV, LIBER SECUNDUS lyrics

Eheu fugaces, Postume, Postume,

labuntur anni, nec pietas moram

rugis et instanti senectae

adferet indomitaeque morti,

non, si trecenis, quotquot eunt dies,

amice, places inlacrimabilem

Plutona tauris, qui ter amplum

Geryonen Tityonque tristi

compescit unda, scilicet omnibus,

quicumque terrae munere vescimur,

enaviganda, sive reges

sive inopes erimus coloni.

Frustra cruento Marte carebimus,

fractisque rauci fluctibus Hadriae;

frustra per autumnos nocentem

corporibus metuemus Austrum.

Visendus ater flumine languido

Cocytus errans, et Danai genus

infame, damnatusque longi

Sisyphus Aeolides laboris.

Linquenda tellus, et domus, et placens

uxor, neque harum, quas colis, arborum

te, praeter invisas cupressos,

ulla brevem dominum sequetur.

Absumet heres Caecuba dignior

servata centum clavibus, et mero

tinget pavimentum superbis

pontificum potiore coenis.
