Date: Wed 05 Jan 2022Original text:
Omnia enim dirae complent mea viscera flammae,
Nam me flamma ferox stimulis devastat acerbic,
Ut pacis pia mox truculenter foedera frangam.
Non tamen oblectat me sponte subire duellum.
Translation:
Fearful flames truly fill all my insides,
For with bitter stings a fierce fire devastates me,
So that soon I cruelly shatter the pious treaties of peace.
Yet I do not enjoy waging war of my own accord.
On the quiver
