- c. 99 BCE – 55 BCE, Lucretius, De Rerum Natura 2.476:
- et quo mixta putes magis aspera levibus esse
principiis, unde est Neptuni corpus acerbum,
est ratio secernendi seorsumque videndi,
umor dulcis ubi per terras crebrius idem
percolatur, ut in foveam fluat ac mansuescat;
linquit enim supera taetri primordia viri,
aspera quo magis in terris haerescere possint.- (please add an English translation of this quotation)
