    • c. 140 BCE, Accius, Atreus 20:
      Probae etsi in segetem sunt deteriorem datae / Fruges, tamen ipsae suapte natura enitent.
      Though seed be sown on unpropitious soil, / It springs and ripens by its innate virtue.
    • 29 BCE – 19 BCE, Virgil, Aeneid 4.149–150:
      haud illō sēgnior ībat / Aenēās; tantum ēgregiō decus ēnitet ōre.
      that by no means was Aeneas preparing to go with any less grace ; as great a glory shone forth from most noble face.
