V. 77-105. CARTHON. 153
Sinus nivis advenarum strenuorum,
Moina pura, cui cedebant populi,
Foemina pulchra ciliorum fuscorum !"
" Refer," dixit rex cum lenitate,
" Historiam circa virginem, o princeps.
Ut nubes super radio solis est tuus luctus ;
Est tuus animus sub nebulà haud parvà ;
Sunt atro-fuscte ture cogitationes, o ardue bellator,
In tuà solitudine circa Loram sonituum.
(Audiamus) audiatur de tuo juvenili-dolore haud vano,
De vapore qui misit tuam senectam sub tetricitatem."
" lUi quidem dies pacis fuere,"'
Dixit Clessamor gladiorum princeps, [duaruni,
" (AppuU ad) percussi ego Balckitham turrium ar-
JNIurorum curvorum, in cymbà fuscà.
Rlisit ventus mea vehi aUja sub fugam
Ad portum super Cluthà fluentorum lenium.
Tres dies elevatum est convivium et epulum
In aulà Rurmaris cornuuni hospitahum ;
Visus est sinus lucis amoris,
Moina speciosa turrium et principum.
Missum est gaudium conchiE in circuitum ;
Dedit Rurmar victoriarum virginem,
Ejus sinu instar spumiE undarum,
Ejus oculo stelhi lucis populi ;
Nigro instar corvi ejus cirro;
Erant pulchriores ejus cirro ejus mores.
Fuit magnus meus amor ad virginem principum,
Moinam speciosam super clivo planorum.
