Translation:Catullus 78b

Translation Original Latin Line


But now I ache, because your dirty saliva has dirtied
  the chaste lips of a chaste girl.
But in truth you will not do this without punishment: for all centuries
  shall know of you and an old tale will be told, about how you are.



sed nunc id doleo, quod purae pura puellae
  suavia comminxit spurca salvia tua.
verum id non impune feres: nam te omnia saecla
  noscent et, qui sis, fama loquetur anus.
