The opening

AN EPIGRAM ON THE AMOURS.

We who of late were five books of Naso, are now but three: this work our author has preferred to the former one. Though it should now be no pleasure to thee to read us; still, the labour will be less, the two being removed.

The whole book is in the Sphinx app.
