• “Catullus’s use of metonymy in the word “lecto” in line 10 is essential to understanding the relieved tone of the poem. It is not the “bed” itself that the speaker yearns for, but the closely associated ideas of rest, comfort, safely, and even relief itself.”
• “By speaking directly to Sirmio, rather than referring to it, Catullus demonstrates his feeling of affectionate familiarity.”
• “aquiescimus”
• recognizing “stylistic choices” (and perhaps questioning the usage of the word “form”?) emphasizes how intentional the use of poetic devices is
• “The relief of homecoming is captured...”

• “emphasizes”
• “underscores”
• “it can be inferred”
• “This correlation supports”
