De Asino Qui Dentibus Aeneidem Consumpsit.

Richard Lovelace

  DE ASINO QUI DENTIBUS AENEIDEM CONSUMPSIT.

Carminis iliaci libros consumpsit asellus;
  Hoc fatum Troiae est: aut equus, aut asinus.

         THE ASSE EATING THE AENEIDS.

A wretched asse the Aeneids did destroy:
A horse or asse is still the fate of Troy.
