Gaius Valerius Catullus, 48 "To Iuventius: On Passion"

Catullus tells Iuventius that no amount of making out would be enough for Catullus.

 

Tier 1

o Iuventi, si possum oculos tuos basiare,

 

basiem te plurime

 

nec umquam satis mihi sit,

 

non si ego te basiem plus quam numerum plantarum maturarum in agris.
