Fronte Capillatâ.—The following lines recurred to my memory after reading in your last number the translation of the epigram by Pasidippus in the article on "Fronte capillatâ," &c.; it is many years since I read them, but have forgotten where. Can you or any of your correspondents inform me who is the author of them?
"Oh! who art thou so fast proceeding,
Ne'er glancing back thine eyes of flame?
Known but to few, through earth I'm speeding,
And Opportunity's my name.
"What form is that, that scowls beside thee?
Repentance is the form you see;
Learn then the fate may yet betide thee,
She seizes them, who seize not me."
