Odes Horace Horace. The Odes and Carmen Saeculare of Horace. Conington, John, translator. London: George Bell and Sons, 1882. 'Tis Telephus that you'd bewitch:But he is of a high degree;Bound to a lady fair and rich,He is not free.O think of Phaethon half burn'd,And moderate your passion's greed:Think how Bellerophon was spurn'dBy his wing'd steed.
