o2 PHINGALEIS, LIB. I.
Vox citharae fidibus mulcebat gratior aulam, 559
Versibiis immiscens curas humilemque pavorem ;
Fronte nitescebant ocuh, quibus ignea cedunt
Sidera. Da quando venias, dux acer in armis,
Illa querebatur, reddit cum taha Carber.
Excipe quam gessit Crimor certamine parmam,
Ahna soror ; facitoque omni rubigine purum 565
Pendeat e tigno spohum hoc, mihi fama perennis.
Nympha, dolore gravis, singultibus iha tendit.
Purpureus fugitore color; lymphataque tectis
Egreditur, carpitque viam, ripamque requirit
Lubaris. Aspiciens supremo funere mersum 570
Quem coluit juvenem, gemitu praecordia rumpit.
Hic * recubant ambo, Cuchuihn ; lentaque taxus
Composito dudum terreno ex aggere surgit.
Littus ad aequoreum forma superante refulsit
Brasollys, Crimorque una post saxa jugonmi ; 575
Vestraque servabunt memori sul:> pectore vates
Nomina, dum fluet alterno cum gurgite pontus.
Finiit ut Carril, mulcet tua gratia fandi
Me vivax, Cuchulhn ait ; cantusque sonorus, 580
Taha quo reseras, decursis condita saecljs,
Advenit, ut placidus manans e nubibus imber,
* Nota k.
