Seite 8 - renovatus ager gravidis canebat aristis : no flumina jam lactis, jam flumina nectaris ibant, flavaque de viridi stillabant ilice mella. sub Jove mundus erat, subiit argéntea proles, auro deterior, fulvo pretiosior aere. 115 Juppiter antiqui contraxit témpora veris, perqué hiemes aestusque et inaequales autumnos et breve ver spatiis exegit quattuor annum. turn primum siccis aër
Seite 20 - vox mea facta tua est ; utinam promissa liceret non dare ! confíteor, solum hoc tibi, nate, negarem : dissuadere licet. Non est tua tuta voluntas : magna petis, Phaëthon, et quae née viribus istis muñera conveniant, nee tarn puerilibus annis. 55 sors tua mortalis ; non est mortale, quod optas, plus etiam, quam quod superis contingere fas est, nescius affectas.

Ter limen tetigi, ter sum revocatus, et ipse 55 Indulgens animo pes mihi tardus erat; Saepe Vale dicto rursus sum multa locutus, Saepe eadem mandata dedi, meque ipse fefelli, Respiciens oculis pignora cara meis. 60 Denique ' Quid propero? Scythia est, quo mittimur,' inquam ; ' Roma relinquenda est : utraque justa
