fixus ut in curru trahitur sine curribus ullis
Myrtilos. haut totum cernes, non integer ipse
in caelum redit, at pars dextera mergitur undis;
vertice lucebit, teneros manus efferet haedos.
laeva Iovis nutrix umero radiabit in ipso,
proxima telluri nascetur planta sinistra.
cetera cum geminis perfecto sidere surgent.
Tauro pistricis pariter cristaeque refulgent
caudaque; vicinum terris iam cerne booten.
et cum se genibus demisit pars ophiuchi,
signum erit, oceano geminos remeare relicto.
totaque iam pristis lucebunt squamea terga;
Eridani et primos deprendat navita fontes,
caelum conspiciens, dum claro se movet ortu
Orion; habet ille notas, quae tempora noctis
significent, ventosve truces fidamve quietem.
