Our translations: SPA
Amabo, mea dulcis Ipsitilla, meae deliciae, mei lepores, iube ad te veniam meridiatum. Et si iusseris, illud adiuvato, ne quis liminis obseret tabellam, neu tibi lubeat foras abire, sed domi maneas paresque nobis novem continuas fututiones. Verum si quid ages, statim iubeto: nam pransus iaceo et satur supinus pertundo tunicamque palliumque.
