    • c. 195 BCE, Plautus, Trinummus 718–724:
      quid ego nunc agam,
      nisi uti sarcinam constringam et clupeum ad dorsum accomodem,
      fulmentas iubeam suppingi soccis? non sisti potest.
      video caculam militarem me futurum hau longius:
      atque aliquem ad regem in saginam si eru’ se coniexit meus,
      credo ad summos bellatores acrem – fugitorem fore
      et capturum spolia ibi illum qui meo ero advorsus venerit.
      What do I do now, if not to pack my knapsack, fit my shield on my back, and let fasten the heels under the shoes? It cannot be stopped.
      I see myself as a military drudge in a future not far:
      My master stepping into the service and nourishment of some king, I believe that with the mightiest warriors he will be the foremost in retreat
      And will seize spoils where someone shall come against my master.
