64. One Than A Goose's Marrow Softer Far

64

Priapus

Quidam mollior anseris medulla

furatum venit huc amore poenae:

furetur licet usque, non videbo.

One than a goose's marrow softer far,

Comes hither stealing for its penalty's sake:

Steal he as please him: I will see him not.

A certain one, more tender than the marrow of a goose, comes hither thieving for love of the punishment. He may steal when he fists, I shall not see him.
