Talia voce refert curis que ingentibus aeger
spem vultu simulat premit altum corde dolorem
illi se praedae accingunt dapibus que futuris
tergora diripiunt costis et viscera nudant
pars in frusta secant veribus que trementia figunt
litore aëna locant alii flammas que ministrant
tum victu revocant vires fusi que per herbam
implentur veteris Bacchi pinguis que ferinae
postquam exempta fames epulis mensae que remotae
amissos longo socios sermone requirunt
spem que metum que inter dubii seu vivere credant
sive extrema pati nec iam exaudire vocatos
praecipue pius Aeneas nunc acris Oronti
nunc Amyci casum gemit et crudelia se cum
fata Lyci fortem que Gyan fortem que Cloanthum

Such
were
the
words
that
he
voiced
He
sick
as
he
was
with
his
worries
Masked his expression with hope kept gloom in his heart deeply
buried
Clothes hitched up they tackle the spoils make ready for
feasting
Ripping the hides from the ribs pulling out and exposing the raw
flesh
Some hack meat into chunks and impale them pulsing on skewers
Others set cauldrons of bronze on the beaches and stoke up the fires
Then they revitalize vigour with vittles and spilling all over
Meadowlands fill up on vintage Bacchus and succulent wild game
After they’ve feasted their hunger away and removed all the tables
Comrades lost are the grief-stricken quest of their long conversations
Wondering poised between hope and fear whether they should
believe them
Still living or now dead and unable to hear voices calling
Most of all righteous Aeneas who now mourns fiery Orontes
Lost now Amycus lost though he keeps it all silent within him
Lycus’ fate too and Gyas the steadfast and steadfast Cloanthus
