LTB. VI. SIVE HIBERNTA LIBERATA, IQT
Respice mente memor Bragellam. Saucia curis,
Humectansque genas, pelago pia lumina ftgit
Littore in extremo : per tempora sibilat Eurus,
Undantesque comas niveo sub pectore miscet.
Captat hians atrae volitantia murmura noctis, 370-
Remorumque sonos : longe resonare per undas
Ipsa tuum credit cantum citharaeque levamen.
Credit, at incassum, tristis tum reddidit heros :
Fractus enim bello, positis inglorius armis
Non patrios repetam fines. Quid namque viderem
Te, Bragella, imo suspiria rumpere corde ? 376
Me gladiis medium mediumque horrentibus hastis
Vincere vidisti, magnorum maxime regum.
Vincere vidi equidem, rursusque videbere victor,
Phingal ait festo concharum munere notus. 380
Quahs sub Cromla quercus, tua surget in altum
Gloria*; bella manent te plurima ; plurima campa
Vulnera jactabis. Delatam appone ferinam,
Lecte Oscar : dapibus cyathisque accumbite plenis.
Corpora curemus ; nobiscum gaudia carpat 385
Erineus rector fortis, fortesque sodales.
Consedere duces ; epulis numerisque vacamus ;
AttoIIitque animos CuchuIIin. Robora membris
