sive te rupes et acuta leto
saxa delectant, age te procellae
crede veloci, nisi erile mavis
carpere pensum
65
regius sanguis dominaeque tradi
barbarae paelex.”” aderat querenti
perfidum ridens Venus et remisso
filius arcu.
mox ubi lusit satis, “abstineto”
70
dixit “irarum calidaeque rixae,
cum tibi invisus laceranda reddet
cornua taurus.
uxor invicti Iovis esse nescis.
mitte singultus, bene ferre magnam
75
disce fortunam; tua sectus orbis
nomina ducet.”
