LTBER QUARTUS.<br />
At regina, gravi jamduclum saucia cura,<br />
Vulnus alit venis, et caeco ca1'pitur igni.<br />
Multa vi1'i vil'tus animo, mUltusque recursat<br />
Gentis honos; hael'ent infixi pectore vultus<br />
Verbaque, nec placidam mcmbl'is tIat cura quietem. 5<br />
P ostera Phoebea lustrahat lampac1e terras<br />
IIumentemque Aurora polo dimoverat nmhram,<br />
Quum sic unanimam alloquitur male sana sororem :<br />
" Anna SOrol', quae me suspensam insomnia terrent?<br />
Quis novus hie nostris successit sec1ibus hospes? 10<br />
Quem sese ore fcrens I quam forti pectore et armis I<br />
Crec10 equitlem, nee vana fi<strong>de</strong>s, genus esse c1eorum.<br />
Degener s animos timor tlrguit. lIeu, quibus ille<br />

Ne cui me vinelo vellem soeiare jugali,<br />
Postquam j}l'imus amor <strong>de</strong>eeptam mOl'te fefellit,<br />
Si non pertaesul11 thalami taeclaeque fuisset,<br />
Ruie uni forsan potui succumber culpae.<br />
Anna, fatebor cnim, miseri post fata Sychaei 20<br />
Conjugis, et sparsos fraterna cae<strong>de</strong> Penates,<br />
Salus hic infiexit sensus, animumque labantem<br />
Impulit. Agnasco vcteris vestigia flall1mae.<br />
Sed mihi vel tellus optem prius ima <strong>de</strong>hiscat.,<br />
Vel pater omnipotens atIigaL me fulmine ad umbras, 25<br />
