Horace+Odes+1.22

Sapphic
 * Horace Odes 1.22**

//The man upright in life, and innocent in crime//
 * Integer vitae scelerisque purus**

//does not need the African javelins, nor a bow//
 * non eget Mauris iaculis neque arcu**

//nor a quiver having been laid down with poisenous arrows,//
 * nec venenatis gravida sagittis,**

//Fuscus,//
 * Fusce, pharetra,**

//whether about to make a journey through boiling Syrtis//
 * sive per Syrtis iter aestuosas**

//or through inhospitable Caucasus,//
 * sive facturus per inhospitalem**

//or the places which the legendary//
 * Caucasum, vel quae loca fabulosus**

//Hydaspes washes.//
 * lambit Hydaspes.**

//For in the the Sabine woods, a wolf//
 * namque me silva lupus in Sabina,**

//while i was singing about my Lalage and//
 * dum meam canto Lalagen et ultra**

//i was wandering beyond the limit carefree,//
 * terminum curis vagor expeditis,**

//the wolf fled me unarmed,//
 * fugit inermem,**

//sort of portent neither the militant//
 * quale portentum neque militaris**

//wide oak forest nourishes,//
 * Daunias latis alit aesculetis,**

//nor does the land of Juba, produces//
 * nec Iubae tellus generat, leonum**

//the dry nurse of lions//
 * arida nutrix.**

//Put me, in barren fields a place where no tree//
 * pone me, pigris ubi nulla campis**

//is refreshed with the summer breeze//
 * arbor aestiva recreatur aura,**

//a place in the world which side of the world the mist and bad Jupiter//
 * quod latus mundi nebulae malusque**

//presses upon//,
 * Iuppiter urget,**

//place me below chariots of a too close sun//
 * pone sub curru nimium propinqui**

//in a land devoid of homes//
 * solis in terra domibus negata:**

//I will love Lalagen laughing sweetly//
 * dulce ridentem Lalagen amabo,**

//and talking sweetly.//
 * dulce loquentem.**
