Templo de Neptuno is an epithalamium, or wedding ode, composed by Francisco Xavier de Menezes, Conde da Ericeira, on the occasion of the marriage of D. Joanna Perpetua de Bragança to D. Luiz Joseph de Castro Noronha Ataide e Sousa, Marques de Cascaes. Published in 1737, this work exemplifies the ornate style of Portuguese poetry during the early 18th century.
