Carmen 103: To Cominius

Cominius, were thy hoary age,
Which deeds of foulest baseness stain,
Submitted to the public rage;
This horrid punishment they'd sure ordain!

Thy tongue, that virtue oft belies,
Pluck'd out, should hungry vultures share;
The crow's black beak dig out thine eyes;
Thy bowels dogs, and wolves thy carcass tear.
