Sīc fātur lacrimāns, classīque immittit habēnās
et tandem Euboïcīs Cūmārum adlābitur ōrīs.
Obvertunt pelagō prōrās; tum dente tenācī
ancora fundābat nāvīs et lītora curvae
praetexunt puppēs. Iuvenum manus ēmicat ārdēns5
lītus in Hesperium; quaerit pars sēmina flammae
abstrūsa in vēnīs silicis, pars dēnsa ferārum
tēcta rapit silvās inventaque flūmina mōnstrat.
At pius Aenēās arcēs quibus altus Apollō
praesidet horrendaeque procul sēcrēta Sibyllae,10
antrum immāne, petit, magnam cui mentem animumque
Dēlius īnspīrat vātēs aperitque futūra.
Iam subeunt Triviae lūcōs atque aurea tēcta.
