«Энеида»:
Скоро увидишь ты сам, как от вёсел вспенится море,
Факелы грозно блеснут, озарится пламенем берег
Если тебя на Ливийской земле Аврора застанет.
Медлить не смей! Отплывай! Изменчива и ненадёжна
Женщина! (Перевод С. Ошерова)
Слова явившегося во сне Энею Меркурия, побуждающие его поторопиться с отплытием из Карфагена в Италию.

Pandere res alta terra et caligine mersas.
