Tum gemini fratres Tiburtia moenia linquunt, fratris Tiburti dictam cognomine gentem, Catillusque acerque Coras, Argiva iuventus, et primam ante aciem densa inter tela feruntur: ceu duo nubigenae cum vertice montis ab alto descendunt Centauri Homolen Othrymque nivalem linquentes cursu rapido; dat euntibus ingens silva locum et magno cedunt virgulta fragore.
Next twin brothers leave the walls of Tibur and the folk called after the name of their brother Tiburtus'Catillus and valiant Coras, Argive youths. On they come in the forefront of battle among the thronging spears, as when the cloud-born Centaurs descend from a lofty mountain peak, leaving Homole or snowy Othrys in rapid race; the mighty forest yields before them as they go, and the thickets give way with a loud crash.
