Lewis/Short (on Perseus) has two examples (including <cui talia fanti>)
under <for>. You could have checked the phrase using a simple Google search:

http://www.google.pl/search?q="cui+talia+fanti"

;)

The other example is <haec fantem>, from an elegy by Sextus Properius,
occurring also in Valerius Flaccus' "Argonautica". Both sources can be
googled up easily.
