En ego cum tenebris tota vagor anxius urbes, securum in tenebris me facit esse Venus, nec sinit occurrat quisquam qui coprpora ferro vulneret aut rapta praemia veste petat.

Lo, when I wander anxiously through all the city in the dark, in the dark Venus is there to keep me safe, and lets no one cross my path to wound my body with his steel or seize my garments for his prize. Tibullus Liber Primus II, 25-28
