Description

“I grabbed a pile of dust, and holding it up, foolishly asked for as many birthdays as the grains of dust, I forgot to ask that they be years of youth.”

― Ovid, Metamorphoses



Ovid was one of the most well-known Roman poets living during the 1st-century. He is most remembered for the epic poem “Metamorphoses” which is one of the most important sources of mythology. Other Ovidian works include his ‘Book of Days’, a collection of poems written in the style of first-hand account reports and interviews with Roman gods.
