qui iuvenes! quantas ostentant, aspice, vires atque umbrata gerunt civili tempora quercu! hi tibi Nomentum et Gabios urbemque Fidenam, hi Collatinas imponent montibus arces, Pometios Castrumque Inui Bolamque Coramque; haec tum nomina erunt, nunc sunt sine nomine terrae.
What fine young men are these! Mark the strength they display and the civic oak that shades their brows! These to your honour will build Nomentum and Gabii and Fidenas town; these shall crown hills with Collatias towers, and Pometii, the Fort of Inuus, Bola and Cora: one day to be famous names, these now are nameless places.
