Namque Neptuno sacer
\ncrinem solutus omne Laocoon replet
\nclamore vulgus. Mox reducta cuspide
\nuterum notavit, fata sed tardant manus,
\nictusque resilit et dolis addit fidem.
\nIterum tamen confirmat invalidam manum
\naltaque bipenni latera pertemptat. Fremit
\ncaptiva pubes intus et, dum murmurat,
\nroborea moles spirat alieno metu.
\nIbat iuventus capta, dum Troiam capit,
\nbellumque totum fraude ducebat nova.
\nEcce alia monstra: celsa qua Tenedos mare
\ndorso replevit, tumida consurgunt freta
\nundaque resultat scissa tranquillo minor,
\nqualis silenti nocte remorum sonus
\nlonge refertur, cum premunt classes mare
\npulsumque marmor abiete imposita gemit.
\nRespicimus: angues orbibus geminis ferunt
\nad saxa fluctus, tumida quorum pectora
\nrates ut altae lateribus spumas agunt.
\nDat cauda sonitum, liberae ponto iubae
\nconsentiunt luminibus, fulmineum iubar
\nincendit aequor sibilisque undae fremunt.
\nStupuere mentes. Infulis stabant sacri
\nPhrygioque cultu gemina nati pignora
\nLauconte. Quos repente tergoribus ligant
\nangues corusci. Parvulas illi manus
\nad ora referunt, neuter auxilio sibi,
\nuterque fratri: transtulit pietas vices
\nmorsque ipsa miseros mutuo perdit metu.
\nAccumulat ecce liberum funus parens,
\ninfirmus auxiliator. Invadunt virum
\niam morte pasti membraque ad terram trahunt.
\niacet sacerdos inter aras victima
\nterramque plangit. Sic profanatis sacris
\nperitura Troia perdidit primum deos.<\/p>\n
