Cēnābis bene, mī Fabulle, apud mē

paucīs (sī tibi dī favent) diēbus,

sī tēcum attuleris bonam atque magnam

cēnam, nōn sine candidā puellā

et vīnō et sale et omnibus cachinnīs;

haec sī, inquam, attuleris, venuste noster,

cēnābis bene; nam tuī Catullī

plēnus sacculus est arāneārum.

Sed contrā accipiēs merōs amōrēs et aliquid suāvius: nam unguentum tibi dabō…et, cum tū id olfaciēs, deōs rogābis, ut tē tōtum, Fabulle, nāsum faciant.
