Aspice quam densum tacitarum uellus aquarum
defluat in uoltus Caesaris inque sinus.
Indulget tamen ille Ioue, nec uertice moto
concretas pigro frigore ridet aquas,
sidus Hyperborei solitus lassare Bootae
et madidis Helicen dissimulare comis.
Quis siccis lasciuit aquis et ab aethere ludit?
Suspicor has pueri Caesaris esse niues.
