Ovid, Ars Amatoria, 1.30-1.33
rend= Nor auspice from the flight of chattering birds, From whence the ancients drew their auguries. To which the poet here alludes.
rend= I sing true: Venus, help my venture! Far away from here, you badges of modesty, the thin headband, the ankle-covering dress. I sing of safe love, permissible intrigue, and there’ll be nothing sinful in my song. Now the first task for you who come as a raw recruit is to find out who you might wish to love. The next task is to make sure that she likes you: the third, to see to it that the love will last. That’s my aim, that’s the ground my chariot will cover:
Este procul, vittae tenues, insigne pudoris Nor Clio , nor her sisters, have I seen
rend= As Hesiod saw them on the shady green: Ovid names Clio only, of all the nine, in this place. The fable tells us, she and her sisters were born of Jupiter 's caresses of Mnemosyne, that is, memory.
Nos venerem tutam concessaque furta canemus Experience makes my work a truth so tried

But the Romans were excited to set about the siege, by their indignation on the king’s account, and by their fear on their own account 4.15. They also set the principal men at variance one with another, by several sorts of contrivances and tricks, and gained the opportunity of doing what they pleased, by the mutual quarrels of those who might have obstructed their measures; till at length, when they were satiated with the unjust actions they had done towards men, they transferred their contumelious behavior to God himself, and came into the sanctuary with polluted feet.
