Ovid,
Metamorphoses — Pyramus and Thisbe
“ Having set out later, [Pyramus] saw, in deep sand, the certain tracks of a wild animal, and his whole face turned pale, when [ut] indeed also the garment stained with blood [he] discovered. 'one night', he said, 'will destroy two lovers, from which she was most worthy for long life. My soul is guilty. I killed you, O [girl] who must be pitied, [I] who, in places full of dread, ordered you to come by night, nor did come here first. Tear apart our body and devour our wicked entrails with your fierce bite, O whatever lions dwell under this rock! ”
