Catullus 86 is a Latin poem of six lines in elegiac couplets by the Roman poet Catullus.

Analysis

On the inferiority of Quintia to Lesbia, Catullus further treats in 43.1ff.[1] Quintia is evidently not the Sister of the Quintius of 82.1ff. and 100.1ff; for this poem dates from the time of the faith of Catullus in Lesbia, at which time Quintius was his friend.[1]
