     (please add an English translation of this quotation)

   • 89 CE – 96 CE, Statius, Silvae 1.6.17, (hendecasyllabic):

     Vix Aurora novos movebat ortus,
     iam bellaria linea pluebant:
     hunc rorem veniens profudit Eurus.
     quicquid nobile Ponticis nucetis
     fecundis cadit aut iugis Idumes
     quod ramis pia germinat Damascos
     et quod percoquit Ebosea Caunos
     largis gratuitum cadit rapinis,
     mollēs gāĭŏlī lŭcuntŭlīque
     et massis Amerina non perustis
     et mustaceus et latente palma
     praegnantes caryotides cadebant.

     • 2015 translation by D. R. Shackleton Bailey, revised by Christopher A. Parrott

       Scarce was Aurora moving another dawn and already dainties were raining from the line—such the dew that rising East Wind poured down: the best that falls in Pontic nutteries or Idume’s fertile hills, what pious Damascus grows upon her boughs and what Ebosean Caunus ripens—free of charge descends the lavish loot. Soft mannikins and pastries, Ameria’s solidities unscorched, must cakes and pregnant dates from an invisible palm—down they fell.

   • c. 125 CE – 180 CE, Apuleius, Metamorphoses 10.13.21:

     Nam vespera post opiparas cenas earumque splendidissimos apparatus multas numero partes in cellulam suam mei solebant reportare domini: ille porcorum, pullorum, piscium, et cuiusce modi pulmentorum largissimas reliquias, hic panes, crustula, lucunculos, hamos, laterculos, et plura scitamenta mellita. Qui cum se refecturi clausa cellula balneas petissent, oblatis ego divinitus dapibus affatim saginabar.

     • 1989 translation by J. Arthur Hanson

       In the evenings, after luxurious dinners with the most brilliant trimmings, my masters used to bring back lots of leftovers to their lodgings: the one brought extremely generous remnants of pork, fowl, fish, and every other kind of meat; the other breads, cookies, fritters, croissants, biscuits, and many other honey-sweetened dainties. As soon as they locked up their room and went to the baths to refresh themselves, I would stuff myself to capacity on those heaven-sent feasts.
