But best of all is that fine book of the Ars Amatoria that Ovid has set aside for the consideration of dyes, perfumes, and pomades.

The elegies on subjects of love, particularly the Ars Amandi, or Ars Amatoria, though not all uniform in versification, possess the same general character, of warmth of passion, and luscious description, as the epistles.

The _Ars Amatoria,_ full as it is of a not unkindly humour, of worldly wisdom and fine insight, is perhaps the most immoral poem ever written.

The writings of Ovid consist of the _Amores_ in three books; the _Heroic Epistles_, twenty-one in number; the _Ars Amatoria_; the _Remedia Amoris_; the _Metamorphoses_, in fifteen books; the _Fasti_, in six books; the _Tristia_, in five books; the _Epistles_, in four books, and a few minor poems.

The poem deals only with the publication of the _Ars Amatoria_, which was not the true cause of the exile; and rather than admitting his guilt and appealing to Augustus' clemency, Ovid tactlessly argues that Augustus had been wrong to exile him.
