| | I would suggest that "on her lap" in line 2 of the english translation of Carmen 2 could better be expressed as "to her breast" as Catullus uses gremium as "lap".

| | | I think rather than breast (Catullus uses pectus), that the fold (sinu's literal meaning) of her lap is best. | | | | Vivamus atque Amemus. |
