Translation	Original Latin	Line
My woman says that she prefers to marry no one over me, not even if Jupiter himself should seek her. She says (these things), but what a woman says to her desirous lover is fitting to write on the wind and on fast-flowing water.	Nūllī sē dīcit mulier mea nūbere mālle     quam mihi, nōn sī sē Iuppiter ipse petat. Dīcit: sed mulier cupidō quod dīcit amantī,     in ventō et rapidā scrībere oportet aquā.	70.1 70.2 70.3 70.4
