How Do I Love Me? Let Me Count the Ways
Ausonius, Epigrammata de diversis rebus 99 “Ad Narcissum qui sui ipsius amore captus erat” If you desired another, Narcissus, you could have him. But as things stand, you have a surfeit of love, yet none of its fruits. Si cuperes alium, posses, Narcisse, potiri. nunc tibi amoris adest copia, fructus abest.
Narcissus, Jan Cossiers (1600-1671)
