... Mécène encourageait Properce dans l'entreprise de son poème national, parce qu'il devait aboutir à Auguste; mais Properce, qui avait accepté cette tâche pour plaire à Mécène, comprit que son génie n'était point-là . Il se contenta de souhaiter à Auguste la conquête du monde, à laquelle Auguste ne pensait point, comme Horace lui prédisait la prochaine soumission de l'Inde et de la Chine. Properce, qui a renoncé à toute gloire militaire, sera content s'il assiste aux triomphes de l'empereur, s'il voit son char chargé de dépouilles s'arrêter fréquemment dans sa marche pour qu'Auguste reçoive les applaudissements du peuple. Lui cependant, appuyé sur le sein de la jeune fille qu'il aime, lira les noms des villes conquises, verra les traits et les arcs des soldats étrangers, les chefs assis sous les trophées d'armures, et il lui suffira d'applaudir avec la foule dans la voie Sacrée. L'aimable Tibulle est le seul des poètes de ce temps auquel je n'aie pas à reprocher un vers en l'honneur d'Auguste. Les âmes tendres ne sont pas toujours les plus faibles...
