Where is Orbilius, pray, great learning's tomb?

Gallus, but now our Cato's creditor
His Tusculanum offered through the town.
We wondered that the master without peer,
The great grammarian, chief among our poets,
Could solve all questions, solvent could not be.
Lo! Crates’ heart, mind of Zenodotus.
