Pompeii: Hast thou ever been in love?
'Tell me, Clodius,' said the Greek at last, 'hast thou ever been in
love?'
'Yes, very often.'
'He who has loved often,' answered Glaucus, 'has loved never. There is
but one Eros, though there are many counterfeits of him.'
'The counterfeits are not bad little gods, upon the whole,' answered
Clodius.
