LIB. I. SIVE HIBERNIA LIBERATA. 83
Cum Sol est coelo, virides cum despicit agros,
Umbraque radit iter clivis, zephyrique tepescunt.
Nunc age, Phoenaide, leni nunc polUce nervos 585
Argutos pulsa ; Bragellam concine, nympham
Pectore canderiti, nympham, Dunscacidis aedes
Luce serenantem vultus ocuHsque benignis,
Quam tenuit popuhs ducibusque habitata superbis
Tnsula, cum memet dederim sub httore vento ; 589
Quamque milii, decoris primaevo flore virentem,
Moribus et facilem, sociavit foedus amoris.
E scopulo nunquid vultum protendis honestum,
Sicubi prospicias summo mea carbasa ponto ?
Te falht pietas ; solam namque aspicis undam : 594
Spumeus haud fluctus ratis est, quam tota requiris.
Tu modo cede loco : nox est ; tua tempora circum
Aura fremit montis rigidi. Non ipse revertar,
Dum saevus belh campo subsederit aestus.
Fortia * dic, fortis Connal ; quam corde recepi,
Mente abigas, oro, generatam sanguine regum, 600
Egregiam forma sponsam flavisque capilHs,
Sorglani sobolem, fama super aethera noti.
Inde bonus Connal : sylvam custodia solers
Occupet, ac caveat ne quid meditentur iniquum
