2.2
Nullus argento color est avaris
abdito terris, inimice lamnae
Crispe Sallusti, nisi temperato
splendeat usu.
5
vivet extento Proculeius aevo,
notus in fratres animi paterni:
illum aget penna metuente solvi
Fama superstes.
latius regnes avidum domando
10
spiritum quam si Libyam remotis
Gadibus iungas et uterque Poenus
serviat uni.
crescit indulgens sibi dirus hydrops
nec sitim pellit, nisi causa morbi
15
fugerit venis et aquosus albo
corpore languor.
redditum Cyri solio Phraaten
dissidens plebi numero beatorum
eximit Virtus populumque falsis
20
dedocet uti
vocibus, regnum et diadema tutum
deferens uni propriamque laurum
quisquis ingentis oculo inretorto
spectat acervos.
