Not illustrated. 1893 Excerpt: ...sine remigis ictu Concava traiecto cumba rudente vehat. Parvus eras, memini, nec te transire refugi, Summaque vix talos contigit unda meos. Nunc ruis adposito nivibus de monte solutis, Et turpi crassas gurgite volvis aquas. Quid properasse iuvat, quid parca dedisse quieti Tempora, quid nocti conseruisse diem, Si tamen hic standum est, si non datur artibus ullis Ulterior nostro ripa premenda pedi?
