una ingens Amiterna cohors priscique Quirites, Ereti manus omnis oliviferaeque Mutuscae; qui Nomentum urbem, qui Rosea rura Velini, qui Tetricae horrentis rupes montemque Severum Casperiamque colunt Forulosque et flumen Himellae qui Tiberim Fabarimque bibunt, quos frigida misit Nursia, et Ortinae classes populique Latini, quosque secans infaustum interluit Allia nomen: quam multi Libyco volvuntur marmore fluctus saevus ubi Orion hibernis conditur undis, vel cum sole novo densae torrentur aristae aut Hermi campo aut Lyciae flaventibus arvis.
With him came Amiternums vast cohort, and the ancient Quirites,     the whole band of Eretum and olive-bearing Mutusca; those who dwell in Nomentums city and the Rosean country by Velinus, on Tetricas rugged crags and Mount Severus, in Casperia and Foruli, and by Himellas stream; those who drink of Tiber and Fabaris, those whom cold Nursia sent, the Ortine squadrons, the Latin peoples, and those whom Allia, ill-boding name, severs with its flood; as many as the waves that roll on the Libyan main, when fierce Orion sinks in the wintry waves; or thick as the corn ears that are scorched by the early sun in the plain of Hermus or the yellow fields of Lycia.
