CARMEN

The notes here are taken from the actual Scala, so be warned that references to the "previous" proverb refer to its order in the Scala, not its order here. You can read more about the word at the Verbosum blog: CARMEN.

Carmina non dant panem.

Carmina poscit amor.

Qui bona vina bibunt, etiam bona carmina scribunt. ~ Note: You can also find the saying in this form: Qui bona vina bibunt vates, bona carmina scribunt.

Levant et carmina curas.

Carmina morte carent.

Debemus carmina Baccho.

Minuentur atrae carmine curae.

Cuius enim panem manduco carmina canto.

Non scribit, cuius carmina nemo legit.

Qui bona vina bibunt, etiam bona carmina scribunt. ~ Note: This is one of the sayings collected by Wegeler, 1003.

Carmina iam moriens, canit exequialia cygnus.
