  • Finally, I found a reference in Lucretius:


    Spring-time and Venus come,

    And Venus’ boy, the winged harbinger, steps on before,

    And hard on Zephyr’s foot-prints Mother Flora,

    Sprinkling the ways before them, filleth all

    With colours and with odours excellent.


    De Rerum Natura, 5.737-740.
