V. 130- 137. TEMORA. 131
Vir-ruptor clj-peoruni, esto proficiscens.
" An veniet solatium propter imbecillos, princeps?
Non est, Ossiane, meus clypeus mihi ipsi ;
Est ille fractus et sparsus super clivum ;
Fracta; sunt pennie avis subfuscEe coelorum
Super mea galeà sub ictibus certaminìs.
Quando fugit hostis rapidè,
Erunt patres principum sub solatio ;
At surget eorum suspirium usque ad tertlam-(partem),
Quando interibunt bellatores in campo.
Non cernetur à Folane rex ;
Quare esset ille sub vi luctus ?"
Fili Clathùs, cujus est maxime cieruleus oculus,
Juvenis Folan, ne expergefacito meum pectus.
Nonne fuisti tu ignis sine nebulà,
Et non erit gaudium denuo principi ?
llaud est (lequalitas) expletio tuai fama^ niihi ipsi ;
(At) iustar solis est strenuus meo itineri :
Est ille intuens meos passus cum gaudio,
Sine unibra commorante circa ejus vultum.
Sursum, o Folan, ad Moram tumulorum ;
Est epulum in nebulà appositum.
" Ossiane, da mihi ipsi meum clypeum,
Pennas, quie sunt fuscs super vento :
Pone ea juxta Folanem, o prìnceps,
Ut ne perdat ille nisi tertiam partem suaj famse.
Strenue Ossiane, est imbeciUitas super me ipsum ;
Pone me sub clade in cavernà.
