Se quis, amans quod amare iuvat, feliciter ardet
gaudet et vento naviget ille suo

Nec te lar patrius, sed amor revocabit amicae

Vina parant animum Veneri, nisi plurima sumas
ut stupeant multo corda sepulta mero.
Nutritur vento, vento restignutur ignis;
lenis alit flammas, grandior aura necat.
Aut nulla ebrietas, aut tanta sit, ut tibi curas

Afierwmeno ap' ta spirometers twn minwn

A touching and marvellous ingenuity
Such as you see only in [the faces of] angels in holy pictures
Imitates the cheek where the smile makes a hollow.

Arthur Rimbaud, from Les Stupra*, (trans. Oliver Bernard, 1962)


*Stupra(Latin): defilements, pollutions by lust

(p.)script(h)um

Hamlet: Is this a prologue, or the posy for a ring?
First Player: 'Tis brief, my lord.
Hamlet: As woman's love.

"Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,

Enwrought with golden and silver light,

The blue and the dim and the dark cloths

Of night and light and the half-light,

I would spread the cloths under your feet:

But I, being poor, have only my dreams;

I have spread my dreams under your feet;

Tread softly, because you tread on my dreams."
