88 PHINGALEIS, LIB. II.
Occiduam, toto vir palluit ore, recinctas
Indutus nebulas ; montis prout faucibus ignes, 15
Colluxere oculi flammis ; sub pectore vulnus
Sanguineum patuit, velut ingens rupis hiatus.
Quae te, Connal ait stupefactus, cura remordet,
Gegalide, patriis venator maxime clivis,
Bellatorque asper ? Quantum mutaris ab illo 20
Crugale, qui clypeos inter gladiosque coruscos
Nil usquam turbatus erat, nil palluit unquam.
Ille latet partim partimque recluditur umbris,
Illacrymansque manum ductori porrigit ingens
Ingentem; luctansque animosein verba resolvit, 25
Qualis arundinibus mistis gemit Auster aquosis.
Nunc animus, Connal, tumulum meus occupat
Ullineo gelidum torpet sub littore corpus ; [altum;
Extremumque loquor fato, sate Colgare, tecum. 29
Nec formam inde meam gressumque agnoscere quis-
Mortalispoterit: referonamflaminaCromlae, [quam
Exilesque umbras refero, quas nubila jactant.
En quae me toto sub pectore cura remordet :
Imminet heu Lenae nubes, clademque minatur !
Caede cruentatam video procimibere pubem 55
Erinis infaustae. Pandis qui hmina fehx
Hospitibus, Lcmurum scdes fugc nocturnorum.
