4. Vivamus mea Lesbia, atque amemus,
rumoresque senum severiorum

dein mille altera, dein secunda centum,
deinde usque altera mille, deinde centum.
dein, cum milia multa fecerimus,
conturbabimus illa, ne sciamus,
aut ne quis malus inuidere possit,
cum tantum sciat esse basiorum.

we will [conturbabimus] that man, we will not know,
but which he is not able to [inuidere] bad,
with much he knows to be kisses.
