About This Book
Catullus 2 is a poem by Roman poet Gaius Valerius Catullus that describes the affectionate relationship between an unnamed puella, and her pet sparrow. As scholar and poet John Swinnerton Phillimore has noted, "The charm of this poem, blurred as it is by a corrupt manuscript tradition, has made it one of the most famous in Catullus' book." The meter of this poem is hendecasyllabic, a common form in Catullus' poetry.
