Priapeia
Priaepia
by divers poets in English verse and prose. Translated by Sir Richard Burton and Leonard C. Smithers
- A robber famed for greed exceeding wonder
- (Eke a Cilician) would this garden plunder;
- Yet in its vasty space, Fabullus, naught
- Save a Priapus stood in marble wrought
- So the Cilician, who with hand sans pelf
- Scornèd departing, stole Priapus' self.
