Tu ne quaesieris, scire nefas, quem mihi, quem tibi 
finem di dederint, Leuconoë, nec Babylonios 
temptaris numeros. melius, quidquid erit, pati! 
seu pluris hiemes seu Iuppiter ultimam, 
quae nunc oppositis debilitat pumicibus mare 
Tyrrhenum. Sapias, vina liques et spatio brevi 
spem reseces. Dum loquimur, fugerit invida 
aetas: carpe diem, minimum credula postero.
