Quid inmerentis hospites vexas, canis
ignavos adversum lupos?
quin huc inanis, si potes, vertis minas
et me remorsurum petis?

nam qualis aut Molossus aut fulvos Lacon,
amica vis pastoribus,
agam per altas aure sublata nivis
quaecumque praecedet fera;
tu, cum timenda voce complesti nemus,
10
proiectum odoraris cibum.
cave, cave, namque in malos asperrimus
parata tollo cornua,
qualis Lycambae spretus infido gener
aut acer hostis Bupalo.
15
an si quis atro dente me petiverit,
inultus ut flebo puer?
