Catullus 82


Quintī, sī tibi vīs oculōs dēbēre Catullum

aut aliud sī quid cārius est oculīs,

ēripere eī nōlī, multō quod cārius īllī

est oculīs seu quid cārius est oculīs.


Quintius, if you want Catullus to owe you his eyes, or anything else, if there is anything else dearer than his eyes, don’t snatch from him what is much dearer to him than his eyes, or whatever else is dearer than his eyes.
