Horace Odes I, XXXI
Robin Bond, Associate Professor of Classics at the University of Canterbury, Christchurch, New Zealand, recorded Book One of Horace's Odes one Sunday morning, for the use of his students, and has kindly released the recording for posting here on Latinum.
Quid dedicatum poscit Apollinem
uates? Quid orat, de patera nouum
fundens liquorem? Non opimae
Sardiniae segetes feraces,
non aestuosae grata Calabriae
armenta, non aurum aut ebur Indicum,
non rura, quae Liris quieta
mordet aqua taciturnus amnis.
Premant Calena falce quibus dedit
Fortuna uitem, diues et aureis
mercator exsiccet culillis
uina Syra reparata merce,
dis carus ipsis, quippe ter et quater
anno reuisens aequor Atlanticum
inpune: me pascust oliuae,
me cichorea leuesque maluae.
Frui paratis et ualido mihi,
Latoe, dones, at, precor, integra
cum mente, nec turpem senectam
degere nec cithara carentem.
