XII- CATULLE! LESBIA! NULLA POTEST MULIER

Catulle! Lesbia! (Catullus! Lesbia!
nulla potest mulier tantum se dicere amatam no woman can truthfully say she was so much loved
vere, quantum a me Lesbia amata mea est. as my Lesbia was loved by me

Nulla fides ullo fuit umquam foedere tanta, no such big trust was ever kept in any commitment before
quanta in amore tuo ex parte reperta mea est. as, on my side, my love for you was kept )

Huc est mens deducta tua mea Lesbia, culpa to this point, my mind has been dragged down, my Lesbia, by your fault
atque ita se officio perdidit ipsa suo, and so by its own devotion the mind itself has destroyed itself
ut iam nec bene velle queat tibi, si optima fias, as now it's not possible to respect you, if you should become very good,
nec desistere amare, omnia si facias. nor is it able to stop loving you, even if you should do every bad thing )
