Book IX, Epigram 75 (Ker)

Not of hard flint or laid rubble, nor of burnt brick, wherewith Semiramis girt the long walls of Babylon, has Tucca made his bath; but of the havoc of the woods and of balks of pine, so that Tucca may go to sea in his bath! He also, luxurious man that he is! builds costly warm baths of every kind of marble that Carystos discovers, that Phrygian Synnas, that African Numidia has sent him, and of that which Eurotas has washed green vvitii his spring. But firewood is lacking. Put the bath under the warm bath!
