Interea sonuere tubae raucusque per aethram Cantus, et ignoto caelum clangore remugit: Turbati expauere dii, uulgusque minorum Caelicolum trepidat, causarum et nescia corda Haerent, et ueteris renouantur crimina Phlegrae. Tunc Amnes Faunique, Pales, Ephialta, Napeae Respectant proceres nulloque assurgere motu Cernunt attoniti uicibusque alterna profantes Mirantur placidam per pectora sacra quietem. Tum primum posita Siluanus forte cupresso Percitus ac trepidans dextram tendebat inermem, Deliacos poscens arcus atque Herculis arma, Portuni trifidam suspirans flagitat hastam, Gradiui frameam non ausus poscere, falcem Saturni bello suetus disquirit agresti, Diffidensque sui respectat tela Tonantis.
