Translation of the Epitaph on Virgil and Tibullus  (1804) 
by Domitius Marsus, translated by George Gordon, Lord Byron
Domitius Marsus was the original writer of this epitaph.

He who sublime in epic numbers roll'd
  And he who struck the softer lyre of love,
By Death's unequal hand alike controll'd,
  Fit comrades in Elyssian regions move!
