Page 116 - Ditisque profundi 455 pallida regna petunt : regit idem spiritus artus orbe alio : longae — canitis si cognita — vitae mors media est. certe populi quos despicit Arctos felices errore suo quos ille timorum maximus baud urget leti metus. inde ruendi 460 in ferrum mens prona viris animaeque capaces mortis et ignavum rediturae parcere vitae.
