4. An Apology for Absence -
Seek Rome, my book, and if she question thee
Whence thou art come, say, " Down Aemilian Road,"
And if she ask the place of my abode
Tell her Cornelius' Forum harbours me;
Confess that here I sojourn to be free
From all her pomp and show, a weary load,
And shall return when I forget to be
A bard and sing a jingling lyric ode.
Whence thou art come, say, " Down Aemilian Road,"
And if she ask the place of my abode
Tell her Cornelius' Forum harbours me;
Confess that here I sojourn to be free
From all her pomp and show, a weary load,
And shall return when I forget to be
A bard and sing a jingling lyric ode.
