Īnstaurant aciēs Volcānī stirpe creātus
Caeculus et veniēns Marsōrum montibus Umbrō.
Dardanidēs contrā furit: Anxuris ēnse sinistram545
et tōtum clipeī ferrō dēiēcerat orbem
(dīxerat ille aliquid māgnum vimque adfore verbō
crēdiderat, caelōque animum fortasse ferēbat
cānitiemque sibi et longōs prōmīserat annōs);
Tarquitus exsultāns contrā fulgentibus armīs,550
silvicolae Faunō Dryopē quem nympha creārat,
obvius ārdentī sēsē obtulit. Ille reductā
lōrīcam clipeīque ingēns onus impedit hastā,
tum caput ōrantis nēquīquam et multa parantis
dīcere dēturbat terrae, truncumque tepentem555
prōvolvēns super haec inimīcō pectore fātur:
'Istīc nunc, metuende, iacē. Nōn tē optima māter
condet humī patriōque onerābit membra sepulcrō:
ālitibus linquēre ferīs, aut gurgite mersum
unda feret piscēsque impāstī vulnera lambent.'560
Prōtinus Antaeum et Lūcam, prīma agmina Turnī,
persequitur, fortemque Numam fulvumque Camertem,
māgnanimō Volcente satum, dītissimus agrī
quī fuit Ausonidum et tacitīs rēgnāvit Amȳclīs.
Aegaeōn quālis, centum cui bracchia dīcunt565
centēnāsque manūs, quīnquāgintā ōribus īgnem
pectoribusque ārsisse, Iovis cum fulmina contrā
tot paribus streperet clipeīs, tot stringeret ēnsīs:
sīc tōtō Aenēās dēsaevit in aequore victor
ut semel intepuit mūcrō. Quīn ecce Niphaeī570
quadriiugīs in equōs adversaque pectora tendit.
Atque illī longē gradientem et dīra frementem
ut vīdēre, metū versī retrōque ruentēs
effunduntque ducem rapiuntque ad lītora currūs.
