  1. ossaque robur agunt, mediaque manente medulla
  2. sanguis it in sucos, in magnos bracchia ramos,
  3. in parvos digiti, duratur cortice pellis.
  4. Iamque gravem crescens uterum perstrinxerat arbor
  5. pectoraque obruerat collumque operire parabat,
  6. non tulit illa moram venientique obvia ligno
  7. subsedit mersitque suos in cortice vultus.
