pone metus, laudanda rogas nec digna negari.
sed mihi multa dei (nec tu sperare quod urgues
desine), multa metus regnique uolubile pondus
subiciunt animo. ueniet qui debitus istis,
nata, modus neque te incassum fleuisse quereris.
tu solare uirum, neu sint dispendia iustae
dura morae: magnos cunctamur, nata, paratus.
proficitur bello.' dicentem talia nascens
lux mouet ingentesque iubent adsurgere curae.
