Pompeius Magnus

This particular poem is from a collection of distichs by Georg Fabricius, Poetae Singulis Distichis Descripti, published in 1546. As the title reveals, the book contains distichs which describe various poets, but there are also distichs on other topics, too, such as the Muses, the Sibyls, and famous historical figures. This particular distich is from the series describing Roman generals; the poem is by Antonius Carchesius.
