10 Nee tamen ilia suae revocatur parcere famae, Turpior et secli vivere luxuria. Has inter gravibus cogor defiere querelis Supplicis ah longis tristior excubiis. Ille meos nunquam patitur requiescere postes 15 Arguta referens carmina blanditia : ELEGY XVI Vestal Tarpeia's far-famed door, Flung wide when pageants passed of yore, Whose steps, with captives' tears bedewed, Long lines of gilded chariots viewed, I now am thumped by scurvy hands And drunken brawls of midnight bands, While barred-out ...suitors strew my porch With faded wreath and dying torch ! Can I, by ribald rhymes disgraced, My mistress shield from nights debased, When, heedless of decorum, she Outdoes the age in laxity ? I can but mourn with sadder air Than that belated gallant there Who squalls away my lintel's peace With serenades that never cease : — 7 o CYNTHIA " Ianua, vel domina penitus crudelior ipsa, Quid mihi tarn duris clausa taces foribus ? Cur nunquam reserata meos admittis amores, Nescia furtivas reddere mota preces ?
