Oda II, 10. Texto latino Traducción aproximada (J. I. Pérez) Rectius vives, Licini, neque altum semper urgendo neque, dum procellas cautus horrescis, nimium premendo litus iniquum. Más honestamente vivirás, Licinio, si, cuando precavido temes las tormentas, no navegas siempre en alta mar y tampoco te ciñes demasiado a la traicionera orilla. Auream quisquis mediocritatem diligit, tutus caret obsoleti sordibus tecti, caret invidenda sobrius aula.

Hark, all ye lovely saints above Diana hath agreed with Love, His fiery weapon to remove. Fa la la. Do you not see How they agree? Then cease fair ladies; why weep ye? Fa la la. See, see, your mistress bids you cease, And welcome Love, with love's increase, Diana hath procured your peace. Fa la la. Cupid hath sworn His bow forlorn To break and burn, ere ladies mourn.
