LÆVIUS, a Latin poet. It is not well known at what time he lived, but probably before the age of Cicero. A poem of his, entitled Erotopagnia, i. e. Love-Games, is quoted by Anus Gellius. Apuleius also quotes six lines from the same poet; but he does not tell from what work he borrowed them. Lævius had also composed a poem entitled The Centaurs, which Festus quotes under the title of Petrarum.
