LIB. I. SIVE HIBERNIA LIBERATA. 71
Lochlinidae fremitum, qiialis sub frigora Brumae
Fluminis est longe plangor ; clypeoque sonoro 316
Signa dedit Suaren ; juvenemque, Arnone creatum
Astantemque sibi, compellat vocibus istis.
Auribus excipio fremitum, prout vespere murmur
Saepius audivi culicis : venit aspera proles 320
Erinis, aut mediis sylvis immurmurat Eurus.
Necseciis antegemit Gormal*,quamfluctibus altum
Aestuet. I, superaque jugum, nec segnior esto,
Arnoide ; sylvas, aversumque inspice collem. 324
Prosiluit, revocatque gradum formidine praeceps,
Intorquetque oculorum orbes ; quatit ilia anhelus ;
Orsus inops animi turbatis vocibus hiscit.
Surge, age,rex pelagi domitor, dux inclyte parmis:
E clivo genus Erineum ductorque superbus
Praecipitant, sicut spumanti flumine torrens ; 330
Advolat immensum sparsurus ubique locorum
Fervidus exitium f currus Cuchullinis acris ;
Pulcher et est visu. Retro se fingit in orbem,
Flactus ut impactus scopulo ; vel caerula nubes,
Convexo recubans colli ; gemmisque coruscat, 335
Nil secus ac multo pontus ruere igne videtur,
Nave repercussus nocturna ; lentaque taxus,
* Nota, X. t Y.
