Latin (poetry) text (Catullus 7):
Quaeris, quot mihi bāsiātiōnēs
tuae, Lesbia, sint satis superque.
Quam magnus numerus Libyssae harēnae
lāsarpīciferīs iacet Cyrēnīs
ōrāclum Iovis inter aestuōsī
et Battī veteris sacrum sepulcrum;
aut quam sīdera multa, cum tacet nox,
fūrtīvōs hominum vident amōrēs:
tam tē bāsia multa bāsiāre
vēsānō satis et super Catullō est,
quae nec pernumerāre curiōsī
possint nec malā fascināre linguā.
Latin (prose) text (Apuleius, "Metamorphoses" 6.8):
Nec Mercurius omīsit obsequium. Nam per omnium ōra populōrum passim discurrēns sīc mandātae praedīcātiōnis mūnus exsequēbātur: “Sīc quis ā fugā retrahere vel occultam dēmōnstrāre poterit fugitīvam rēgis fīliam, Veneris ancillam, nōmine Psȳchēn, conveniat retrō mētās Murtiās Mercurium praedīcātōrem, acceptūrus indicīvae nōmine ab ipsā Venere septem sāvia suāvia et ūnum blandientis adpulsū linguae longē mellītum". Ad hunc modum prōnuntiante Mercuriō tantī praemiī cupīdō certātim omnium mortālium studium adrexerat. Quae rēs nunc vel maximē sustulit Psȳchēs omnem cunctātiōnem.
