Hīc Mars armipotēns animum vīrīsque Latīnīs
addidit et stimulōs ācrīs sub pectore vertit,
immīsitque Fugam Teucrīs ātrumque Timōrem.
Undique conveniunt, quoniam data cōpia pūgnae,720
bellātorque animō deus incidit.
Pandarus, ut fūsō germānum corpore cernit
et quō sit fortūna locō, quī cāsus agat rēs,
portam vī multā conversō cardine torquet
obnīxus lātīs umerīs, multōsque suōrum725
moenibus exclūsōs dūrō in certāmine linquit;
ast aliōs sēcum inclūdit recipitque ruentīs,
dēmēns, quī Rutulum in mediō nōn agmine rēgem
vīderit inrumpentem ultrōque inclūserit urbī,
immānem velutī pecora inter inertia tigrim.730
Continuō nova lūx oculīs effulsit et arma
horrendum sonuēre, tremunt in vertice cristae
sanguineae clipeōque micantia fulmina mittit.
Agnōscunt faciem invīsam atque immānia membra
turbātī subitō Aeneadae. Tum Pandarus ingēns735
ēmicat et mortis frāternae fervidus īrā
effātur: 'Nōn haec dōtālis rēgia Amātae,
nec mūrīs cohibet patriīs media Ardea Turnum.
castra inimīca vidēs, nūlla hinc exīre potestās.'
Ollī subrīdēns sēdātō pectore Turnus:740
'Incipe, sī qua animō virtūs, et cōnsere dextram,
hīc etiam inventum Priamō nārrābis Achillem.'
Dīxerat. Ille rudem nōdīs et cortice crūdō
intorquet summīs adnīxus vīribus hastam;
excēpēre aurae, vulnus Sāturnia Iūnō745
dētorsit veniēns, portaeque īnfīgitur hasta.
'At nōn hōc tēlum, mea quod vī dextera versat,
effugiēs, neque enim is tēlī nec vulneris auctor':
Sīc ait, et sublātum altē cōnsurgit in ēnsem
et mediam ferrō gemina inter tempora frontem750
dīvidit impūbisque immānī vulnere mālās.
Fit sonus, ingentī concussa est pondere tellūs;
conlāpsōs artūs atque arma cruenta cerebrō
sternit humī moriēns, atque illī partibus aequīs
hūc caput atque illūc umerō ex utrōque pependit.755
