In Lesbiam, Epig. 39.

Lesbia why dost thou swear
That thou wast born that year
When Brutus was made Consull? tis a lye.
Thy Mother brought thee forth her womb
When Numa reigned first in Rome,
93

And so again thou dost the truth deny.
For thy long dated ages seem to say
Thou wast produced from Prometheus clay.
