Epigram
By Callimachus (c. 310240 B.C.)
(Admired and Paraphrased by Horace)
T
And every hare pursues through frost and snow,
Tracking their footsteps. But if some one say,
“See, here’s a beast struck down,” he turns away.
Such is my love: I chase the flying game,
And pass with coldness the self-offering dame.
