Horace Book III OdeA
-
O fons Bandisi splendidior vitroB
-
-
Worthy of flowers and syrups sweetC
O fountain of Bandusian onyxD
To morrow shall a goatling's bleatC
Mix with the sizz of thy carbonicsD
-
A kid whose budding horns portendC
A life of love and war but vainlyE
For thee his sanguine life shall endC
He'll spill his blood to put it plainlyE
-
And never shalt thou feel the heatC
That blazes in the days of siriusD
But men shall quaff thy soda sweetC
And girls imbibe thy drinks deliriousD
-
Fountain whose dulcet cool I singF
Be thou immortal by this Ode aG
Not wholly metricious thingF
Bandusian fount of ice cream sodaG
