Heathcote William Garrod, comp. (1878–1960). The Oxford Book of Latin Verse. 1912.

Domitius Marsus circa 19 B.C.

On the Death, in the same year, of Vergil and Tibullus

TE quoque Vergilio comitem non aequa, Tibulle,

Mors iuuenem campos misit ad Elysios,

ne foret aut elegis mollis qui fleret amores

aut caneret forti regia bella pede.
