| 17 | tua nunc opera meae puellae | now, because of you, |
| 18 | flendo turgiduli rubent ocelli. | my girlfriends' little eyes are swollen red from weeping |
- Veneres Cupidinesque
這是卡圖盧斯最喜歡的短語。他還在第 13 首詩中使用了它。
- passer... meae puellae - sparrow... of my girl
這種擬聲詞傳達了一種修辭上的語氣，是卡圖盧斯經常使用的。
- modo huc modo illuc - now here now there
這組詞的聲音模仿了小鳥活著時跳來跳去的動作。
- pipiabat - chirped
這個詞的聲音模仿了小麻雀發出的聲音。用掃描形式寫成 - pǐpǐābǎt - 長短音節的組合反映了小鳥的聲音。
