Indulget pecori nimium dum pastor Amyntas
et gaudet fama luxuriaque gregis,
cedentes oneri ramos silvamque pluentem
vicit, concussas ipse secutus opes.
Triste nemus dirae vetuit superesse ruinae
damnavitque rogis noxia ligna pater.
Pingues, Lygde, sues habeat vicinus Iollas:
te satis est nobis annumerare pecus.
