Amores Ovid 43 B.C.-17 or 18 A.D

Şiir 14

 
But righteous vengeance oft their crimes pursues,
 
And they are lost themselves, who would their
 
children lose;
 
The pois'nous drugs with mortal juices fill
 
Their veins, and, undesign'd, themselves they kill 65
 
Themselves upon the bier are breathless borne,
 
With hair tied up that was in ringlets worn,
 
Thro' weeping crowds that on their course attend;
 
Well may they weep for their unhappy end.
 
Forbid it, heaven, that what I say may prove 70
 
Presaging to the fair I blame and love;
 
Thus let me ne'er, ye pow'rs, her death deplore,
 
'Twas her first fault, and she'll offend no more;
 
No pardon she'll deserve a second time,
 
But, without mercy, punish then her crime. 75
