Ovid Quotes
Parcite, mortales, dapibus temerare nefandiscorpora! sunt fruges, sunt deducentia ramospondere poma suo tumidaeque in vitibus uvae,sunt herbae dulces, sunt quae mitescere flammamollirique queant; nec vobis lacteus umoreripitur, nec mella thymi redolentia florem:prodiga divitias alimentaque mitia tellussuggerit atque epulas sine caede et sanguine praebet.
