“Пролетта донесе вече мека топлина
и побеснялото небе на март
Зефир смири със сладък полъх.
Нека напуснем, Катуле, фригийските поля
и плодородната земя на жарката Никея.
Към градовете славни на Азия да литнем!
Духът нетърпеливо желае да се скита,
щастливи в страстта си заякват нозете.
Сбогом, мои спътници любими!
Макар че заедно стигнахме надалеч от вкъщи,
различни и случайни пътища ни връщат.”
― The Complete Poems

He symbolized you as infinite love forever together
and the dark cloud and ravens sung a dirge
Oh! Annabel Lee.”

“The gods are given even greater license to lie and deceive. Apparently, they do not have the same degree of responsibility to their relatives and allies as humans do. Effective acts of lying and deception seem to be admired as tokens of one god's at least temporary ascendancy over another god.”
