Quidam mollior anseris medulla
furatum venit huc amore poenae:
furetur licet usque, non videbo.
One than a goose's marrow softer far,
Comes hither stealing for its penalty's sake:
Steal he as please him: I will see him not.
A certain one, more tender than the marrow of a goose, comes hither thieving for love of the punishment.[1] He may steal when he fists, I shall not see him.
