de me: Lesbia me dispeream nisi amat. |

May I perish if Lesbia does not love me. |
| quo signo? quia sunt totidem mea: deprecor illam | 3 | By what token? because it is just the same with me. I am perpetually crying out upon her, |
assidue, uerum dispeream nisi amo |

but may I perish if I do not love her. |
