“ Blazing suns once shone for you when you would always come where the girl led, a girl beloved by us as no girl will be loved. There when those many playful things happened, things which you wanted, nor was the girl unwilling, truly, blazing suns shone for you. Now, now she is not willing; you, powerless, must not want: do not follow one who flees, do not live miserably, but endure with a resolute mind, harden yourself. Farewell, girl! Already Catullus is firm, he will not seek you out, nor will he ask one who is unwilling. ”
