uixit plurimum in secessu ruris sui Sabini aut Tiburtini, domusque eius ostenditur circa Tiburni luculum. 〈* * *〉 uenerunt in manus meas et elegi sub titulo eius et epistola prosa oratione quasi commendantis se Maecenati, sed utraque falsa puto; nam elegi uulgares, epistola etiam obscura, quo uitio minime tenebatur.

He lived chiefly in the seclusion of his estate, Sabine or Tiburtine, and his house is pointed out near the little grove of Tiburnus. There have come into my hands both elegies under his heading and a letter in prose, as if recommending himself to Maecenas, but I think both are fake; for the elegies are common, and the letter is obscure, a fault to which he was not at all subject. (Suetonius, V. Hor. pp. 47.15 – 48.3 Reifferscheid)
