Martial's Favourites
Polytinus? Chases girls to find a mate;
Hypnus? He thinks his boyhood infra-dig;
Secundus? Buttocks like a peach-fed pig;
Dindymus? Hates to seem effeminate;
Amphion? Could have been a girl from birth.
The charms, the pride, the petulant display
Of these five boys to my mind far outweigh
The golden dowry that a bride is worth.
