HUC 1 Corvine, tuum 2 Juvenalem solvere testis, Debita quae Divis, si parceret unda sodali. Candida 3 Junoni mactabitur agna 3; Minervae 4 Par 4 vellus dabitur; vitulus 5 Iovis 5 imbuet aras Cespite de vivo; cui figo basia cultor Laetitiâ illacrymans, pelago reddente Catullum. Tradidit incolumis votivas ecce tabellas 6, Quas Heluina 7 Ceres missae monimenta salutis In Fanum accipiet; quo multa ostendit imago Huic similes casus: Navim ut detrudit in imum Tempestas victrix! ut mox ferit aethera velis! Aemulus intereà certat cum fulgure fluctus, Vtri praeda ratis cedat: sed saxea profert Brachia in auxilium portus porrecta Lavinus: Tenditur ad positas inclusa per aequora moles; Jamque propè est Statio, at propior Mors instat Amico: Trunca suo pinus malo, scatet alveus undis; Coepit cum ventis jactu decidere Vector, Projicit argentum, tinctas & ab aere lanas, Bascaudásque, volens etiam pulcherrima mitti. Spes vitae cum sole redit; componitur Auster; Atra Dies, toto sed fulget Vesper olympo.
