[Martial] Lib. 1. Epigr. XIV.
De Arriâ & Paeto.
1 WHen from her Breast Chast Arria did unsheath
2 The reeking Sword, & led the way to Death '
3 The blushing Steel to her Lov'd Lord she gave,
4 And said — Tho Wretched, let us still be Brave!
5 Ah that I might prevent thy Fate with Mine:
6 At my own Breast I Bleed, but Smart in Thine.
