Catullus

Summary

Portrait of Catullus Catullus,  Catullus 24

“ I'd prefer you give the wealth of Midas
to that man for whom there is neither a slave nor a coffer,
than that you suffer yourself to be loved by him.
"Why?" you ask "Is he not a good man?" He is;
but there is neither a slave nor a coffer to this fine man.
