  1. scrutatur toto populatrix turba profundo
  2. heu male defensos penetrali flumine pisces,
  3. hic medio procul amne trahens umentia lina
  4. nodosis decepta plagis examina verrit;
  5. ast hic, tranquillo qua labitur agmine flumen,
  6. ducit corticeis fluitantia retia signis;
  7. ille autem scopulis deiectas pronus in undas
  8. inclinat lentae convexa cacumina virgae,
  9. inductos escis iaciens letalibus hamos.
  10. quos ignara doli postquam vaga turba natantum
  11. rictibus invasit patulaeque per intima fauces
  12. sera occultati senserunt vulnera ferri,
  13. dum trepidant, subit indicium crispoque tremori
  14. vibrantis saetae nutans consentit harundo,
  15. nec mora et excussam stridenti verbere praedam
  16. dexter in obliquum raptat puer; excipit ictum
    17. v.1.p.244
  17. spiritus, ut raptis quondam per inane flagellis
  18. aura crepat motoque adsibilat aere ventus.
  19. exultant udae super arida saxa rapinae
  20. luciferique pavent letalia tela diei.
