52. ad Fabullum

Non has compositas, Fabulle, nugas

Sera credideris diu lucerna,

Aut ter et quater unguibus remorsis,

Verum post epulas, iocos, trientes,

Magnos cum movet Euchius furores.

Quare sobria si parum Thalia est,

Mirari, rogo, desine et poetam

Defende invidia gravi premente,

Vno versiculo subinde dicto:

"Scripsit ebrius has poeta nugas".
