00:00:04.930 --> 00:00:11.740 align:middle line:84%
This one is a sonnet
extracted from "De Rerum

00:00:11.740 --> 00:00:14.260 align:middle line:90%
Natura," Lucretius's poem.

00:00:14.260 --> 00:00:19.330 align:middle line:84%
So I pick up in the
form of a sonnet

00:00:19.330 --> 00:00:22.660 align:middle line:84%
but this is, I mean, translated
from the "De Rerum Natura."

00:00:25.951 --> 00:00:30.234 align:middle line:84%
Comme qui a soif au milieu
torrentiel du fleuve, où il boit.

00:00:30.258 --> 00:00:33.377 align:middle line:84%
Eux ne peuvent se rassasier
de regarder leurs corps

00:00:33.401 --> 00:00:39.113 align:middle line:84%
à satiété hors d'état de rien arracher
des mains aux tendres portions de corps,

00:00:39.137 --> 00:00:43.160 align:middle line:84%
errant corps à corps tout entiers,
sans savoir où à la fin,

00:00:43.184 --> 00:00:48.720 align:middle line:84%
se mesurant de toute part en fleur,
ils vont fuir de leur âge.

00:00:48.744 --> 00:00:52.439 align:middle line:84%
Et déjà, le corps présage
de jouir, et Vénus

00:00:52.552 --> 00:00:57.456 align:middle line:84%
en est à parsemer les sillons de femmes,
se fichent avidement les corps,

00:00:57.480 --> 00:00:59.782 align:middle line:90%
se joignent les salives des bouches

00:00:59.806 --> 00:01:03.972 align:middle line:84%
et se respirent, s'entre pressant
des dents les bouches pour rien,

00:01:03.996 --> 00:01:06.602 align:middle line:90%
puisqu'ils ne peuvent rien arracher ici,

00:01:06.819 --> 00:01:10.201 align:middle line:84%
ni pénétrer et passer dans le corps
avec tout le corps.

00:01:10.225 --> 00:01:13.491 align:middle line:84%
Entre-temps, on dirait
que c'est ce qu'ils veulent faire

00:01:13.515 --> 00:01:15.739 align:middle line:90%
et combattre jusque-là.

00:01:16.041 --> 00:01:19.607 align:middle line:84%
Cupides aux jointures de Vénus,
ils adhèrent.

00:01:19.691 --> 00:01:23.255 align:middle line:84%
Et les membres tremblant
de volupté, se liquéfient.

00:01:30.240 --> 00:01:33.540 align:middle line:84%
"Like someone thirsty in the
torrential middle of the river

00:01:33.540 --> 00:01:36.300 align:middle line:84%
where he drinks, they
cannot get enough of looking

00:01:36.300 --> 00:01:38.190 align:middle line:90%
at their bodies to repletion.

00:01:38.190 --> 00:01:41.520 align:middle line:84%
In no shape to tear anything
away with hands from tender

00:01:41.520 --> 00:01:45.720 align:middle line:84%
portions of roaming bodies
hand-to-hand altogether,

00:01:45.720 --> 00:01:49.260 align:middle line:84%
without knowing where in
the end measuring themselves

00:01:49.260 --> 00:01:53.100 align:middle line:84%
from all sides and bloom they
shall taste of their age.

00:01:53.100 --> 00:01:55.650 align:middle line:84%
And already the body
foretells coming.

00:01:55.650 --> 00:01:59.550 align:middle line:84%
And Venus is all set to
bestrew the women's furrows;

00:01:59.550 --> 00:02:02.310 align:middle line:84%
avidly clasp
together the bodies,

00:02:02.310 --> 00:02:06.060 align:middle line:84%
join together mouths' saliva
and breathe each other pressing

00:02:06.060 --> 00:02:07.770 align:middle line:90%
mouths together by teeth.

00:02:07.770 --> 00:02:10.979 align:middle line:84%
For nothing since they
can tear nothing away

00:02:10.979 --> 00:02:14.520 align:middle line:84%
here nor penetrate and
go over into the body

00:02:14.520 --> 00:02:16.410 align:middle line:90%
with all the body.

00:02:16.410 --> 00:02:19.110 align:middle line:84%
Meanwhile one would
say that is what

00:02:19.110 --> 00:02:22.350 align:middle line:84%
they want to do and
combat up to that point:

00:02:22.350 --> 00:02:24.990 align:middle line:84%
grasping at Venus's
joints they adhere,

00:02:24.990 --> 00:02:29.690 align:middle line:84%
and limbs trembling with
delight become liquefied."

00:02:29.690 --> 00:02:31.000 align:middle line:90%
