Aquino is a town and comune in the province of Frosinone, in the Lazio region of Italy, 12 km northwest of Cassino.
The ancient Aquinum was a municipium in the time of Cicero, and made a colony by the Triumviri. It was crossed by the Via Latina.
Aquinum is thought to be the birthplace of the poet Juvenal, and was that of the emperor Pescennius Niger.
The earliest recorded Catholic Bishop of Aquino was Bishop Giovino in 593AD.
Aquino's patron saint is San Costanzo, or St. Constantius (different from St. Constantius of Perugia).
St. Thomas Aquinas was born in 1225 in the castle of Roccasecca, 8 kilometres northwards.
One of the gates through which the Via Latina passed, now called Porta S. Lorenzo, is still well preserved, and there are remains within the walls (portions of which, built of large blocks of limestone, still remain) of two (so called) temples, a basilica and an amphitheatre.
Outside, on the south is a well-preserved triumphal arch with composite capitals, and close to it the basilica of Santa Maria Libera, a 9th century building in the Romanesque style erected over the remains of an ancient temple of Hercules Liberator, now roofless. Several Roman inscriptions are built into it, and many others that have been found indicate the ancient importance of the place, which, though it does not appear in early history, is vouched for by Cicero and Strabo.

Genres: Biography, Drama, Romance,Everybody at the party is a many sided polygon
When a guest arrives
They will count how many sides it has on
Standing by the window over there
There is a shape with four sides, so it's a square
And the one who has nine is looking fine
And its name is Nonagon
Everybody turns just in time to see the pentagon arrive
Counting up the sides, it is clear the pentagon has five
Chatting in the kitchen we see
There is a triangle whose sides number three
And is talking to the shape that has nine
Who is known as Nonagon
Nonagon
Nonagon, lets in a guest who has shown up late
Its name is Octagon and its sides add up to eight
Turning the music on is a six sided hexagon
And they all get in a line and do
A dance called, 'the Nonagon
The Nonagon
