XXXVII

Dissimilis matri, patri diversa figura,
Confusi generis, generi non apta propago,
Ex aliis nascor nec quidquam nascitur ex me.

Peck:

My form with neither parent's doth agree
Of mingled race not fit for progeny,
And though of others born, there's born no son of me.

Ohl:

Unlike my mother, in semblance different from my father, of mingled race, a breed unfit for progeny, of others I am born, and none is born of me.

Give up? Here's the answer.
