  1. Fallaces vitreo Stellas componere mundo
  2. et vaga Saturni sidera saepe queri
  3. venturumque Iovem paucis promittere nummis
  4. Cureti genitor noverat Uranius.
  5. in prolem dilata ruunt periuria patris
  6. et poenam merito filius ore luit.
  7. nam spurcos avidae lambit meretricis hiatus
  8. consumens luxu flagitiisque domum
  9. et, quas fallacis collegit lingua parentis,
  10. has eadem nati lingua refundit opes.
