P sendo propheta surgit et plebem levem
Jam fascinatam cerimoniis tenens,
Pacem Deorum spondet, et tuta omma,
Si gens profana possit excludi sacris.
Megara suflans rupsus in mentes redit.
Jam pro salute publica nugas agunt
Dejusque nugis: alius in alium furit.
Pars sanor recedit admonitu ominum.
Senaxqu libertatis ad Batavos abit.
Per aliquot annos improbi clavum regunt,
Opinione jamque felices sua
Spernunt prorum monita, et insultant binis.
Sed fata lento tacita subrepunt gradu,
Adestque tandem, cuncta quae vertat, dies.
Aequante libra notis et luiis vias,
Ardere visa Luna Neptunum vocat,
Furensque Caurus duplicat ponti metus.
Insolitus imber alveos graditur supra,
Suspensa in altum flumina haud ripas sciunt.
Oceanus ipse fluctibus vastis tumens
Minatur astris, et vetus tentat chaos.
Linquuntur animis accolae et casu stupent.
dnabsolutus agger obstabat male,
tandemque cedens aequor admittit solo,
Late ruina januam pelago facit.
Surdos colonus invocat sero Deos,
Frustraque palmas tendit ad coelum miser.
Ipsa est fuga intercepta; diluvium redit.
Colles teguntur; quisquis his steterat, natat.
Vivumque sorbet omne communis labes.
Subsidit ipsa terra, fit totum mare.
