"Estncmus Hsemonise, prserupta quod undique claudit 
Silva : vocanl Tempe. Per quae Peneus, ab imo 
Effusus Pindo, spumosis volvitur undis : 
Dejectuque gravi tenues agitantia fumos 
Nubila conducit, suinmasque adspergine silvas 
Impluit ; et sonitu plus quam vicina fatigat. 
Haec domus, hac sedes, haec sunt penetralia magni 
Amnis : in hoc, residens facto de cautibus antro, 
Undis jura dabat, Nymphisque colentibus undas."
