- Nec Rhenus, nec Rhodanus, nec Hister, nec Hebrus subiacen Haemo aestate proueniunt; et illis altissimae, ut in septemtrionibus, iugiter sunt nives. Phasis quoque per idem tempus et Borysthenes crescerent, ut nives flumina possent contra aestatem magna producere.
- Neither the Rhine, nor the Rhone rivers, nor the Danube, nor its tributaries the Hebrus (the modern Maritsa River in Greece) and the Haemus (the modern Iskar River in Bulgaria), those being very deep, are perpetually frozen before the summer season. Also at the same time the Phasis (the modern Rioni River in Georgia), and the Borysthenes (the modern Dnieper River) have become so great as to be able to freeze amidst summer heat.

- ~380 CE, Decimius Magnus Ausonius, 'Parentalia 19' "Namiae Pudentillae, sorori Sabinae",.Line 4:
- Tuque Pudentillam verbis adfare supremis, / quae famae curam, quae probitatis habes. / Nobilis haec, frugi, proba, laeta, pudica, decora, / coniugium Sancti iugiter haec habuit. Inviolata tuens castae praeconia vitae / rexit opes proprias, otia agente viro: / non ideo exprobrans aut fronte obducta marito, / quod gereret totam femina sola domum. / Heu nimium iuvenis, sed laeta superstite nato / atque viro, patiens fata suprema obiit: / unanimis nostrae et quondam germana Sabinae / et mihi inoffenso nomine dicta soror. / Nunc etiam manes placidos pia cura retractat / atque Pudentillam fantis honore colit.
- You also, Lady, who think highly of a good name and upright life, speak a word of last farewell to Pudentilla. Well-born, thrifty, and upright, cheerful, modest, and fair, she unfailingly maintained the wedded life of Sanctus. Keeping unstained the praises due to a modest life, she managed her own property, while her lord lived at ease: but for all that she did not taunt her husband nor look black upon him because he left a woman to manage the whole house alone. Alas! Too young, yet happy that her husband and her son still lived, she met her final doom and died. She was of one heart and one in blood with my Sabina, and by me was she called sister unreproved. Now also my loving thoughts busy themselves with her peaceful shade, and voice these words of tribute to my Pudentilla.
- Tuque Pudentillam verbis adfare supremis, / quae famae curam, quae probitatis habes. / Nobilis haec, frugi, proba, laeta, pudica, decora, / coniugium Sancti iugiter haec habuit. Inviolata tuens castae praeconia vitae / rexit opes proprias, otia agente viro: / non ideo exprobrans aut fronte obducta marito, / quod gereret totam femina sola domum. / Heu nimium iuvenis, sed laeta superstite nato / atque viro, patiens fata suprema obiit: / unanimis nostrae et quondam germana Sabinae / et mihi inoffenso nomine dicta soror. / Nunc etiam manes placidos pia cura retractat / atque Pudentillam fantis honore colit.
