Passage from "Tristia", by Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)
Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso) was born in Rome, educated for public life and held some offices of considerable dignity, but poetry was his delight, and he early resolved to devote himself to it.
He accordingly sought the society of the contemporary poets, and was acquainted with Horace and saw Virgil, though the latter died when Ovid was yet too young and undistinguished to have formed his acquaintance.
