Catullus+86


 * Catullus 86**

//Quintia is beautiful to many. To me, she is pretty, tall,//
 * Quintia formosa est multis. Mihi candida, longa,**

//stately to me: these I thus individually admit.//
 * recta est: haec ego sic singula confiteor.**

//I deny that all "beautiful" thing: for there is no charm,//
 * Totum illud “formosa” nego: nam nulla venustas,**

//there is no grain of wit in such a great body.//
 * nulla in tam magno est corpore mica salis.**

//Lesbia is gorgeous, who is not only wholly very beautiful,//
 * 5 Lesbia formosa est, quae cum pulcerrima tota est,**

//but at the same time she stole all the charms from all women.//
 * tum omnibus una omnis surripuit Veneres.**
