Propertius, Elegiae 2, 3b, 48-51
Zoals de stier die zich in het begin van de ploeg los wil rukken; later, gewend aan het juk, gaat hij gedwee naar het veld:
zo is Amors begin voor een jongen vol felle emoties, later verdraagt hij, getemd, alles, rechtvaardig of niet.
[vert. W.A.M. Peters. Baarn 1991, p.50] |

Propertius, Elegiae 2, 3b, 48-51
As at first the ox refuses the plough yet at length become familiar to the yoke and goes quietly to the fields, so do proud
youths fret in the first ecstasy of love, then, calmer grown, bear good and ill alike. [tr. H.E. Butler, Loeb, p. 73] |
