O Ehodocleia ! tliis wreatli I send to thee, "Wliicli I myself of fairest blossoms wove : A lily, rosebud, an anemone. And a narcissus witli the dew still wet, A deeply-tinted purple violet ; And crowned with these less proud shalt thou be made ; Though fair as they, like them thou too must fade.
34 RUFINUS.
Book V. , Epigram 92.
In all her beauty, proud is liiiodope ; With brows uplifted she Scornful retiuiis my greeting when we meet.
Angry, 'neath haughty feet She treads the wi'eaths I hang a...bove her door.
Come, ^^Tinkles, and, yet more. Come, pitiless old age ! Come, hasten ye, Come bend proud Ehodope.
Book V. , Epigram 284.
AJl, all of you I love, save yoiu: too kindly eyes, That something find to love in men whom I despise.

No more upon tliy flute, Tlierimaclius, Beside the lofty plain thy shepherd's song Thou'lt tmie ! Thy homed herds will hear no more Sweet reedy melodies, while 'neath the shade Of the broad oak thou liest.
