Elegiae

Sex. Propertius

et tu, Roma, meis tribuisti praemia Tuscis,

(unde hodie Vicus nomina Tuscus habet,)tempore quo sociis venit Lycomedius armis

atque Sabina feri contudit arma Tati.

And thou, Rome, thou didst reward my Tuscan kin--from whom to-day the Tuscan street is named--what time the Lycomedian came with succouring host and crushed the Sabine warriors of fierce Tatius.
