Nota Suburanas inter Telethusa puellas,
quae, puto, de quaestu libera facta suo est,
cingit inaurata penem tibi, sancte, corona:
hunc pathicae summi numinis instar habent.
Yon Telethusa befamèd amid the damsels Suburran
(Who by her gains I hold freedwoman now is become)
Girds with a gilded crown, O Holy! thine inguinal organ,
Held by the pathic girls like in degree to a god.
Telethusa, notorious amongst the damsels of the Via Subura,[1] who, I believe, has bought her freedom with the profits of prostitution,[2] encircles thy penis, O venerable one, with a golden crown, for these pathic women consider it equal in eminence to a god.
