Si quicquam mutis gratum acceptumve sepulcris
accidere a nostro, Calve, dolore potest,
quo desiderio veteres renovamus amores
atque olim missas flemus amicitias,
certe non tanto mors immatura dolori est
Quintiliae, quantum gaudet amore tuo.

If anything grateful or pleasing to silent tombs
is able to happen from our grief, Calvus,
by which longing we renew old loves and
we weep for the long departed friendships,
certainly her untimely death is not such great grief
for Quintilia as she rejoices from your love.
