extemplo Turni sic est adfata sororem diva deam, stagnis quae fluminibusque sonoris praesidet (hunc illi rex aetheris altus honorem Iuppiter erepta pro virginitate sacravit): nympha, decus fluviorum, animo gratissima nostro, scis ut te cunctis unam, quaecumque Latinae magnanimi Iovis ingratum ascendere cubile, praetulerim caelique libens in parte locarim: disce tuum, ne me incuses, Iuturna, dolorem.
Straightway, goddess to goddess, she spoke thus to Turnus sister, mistress of the ponds and sounding rivers: this honour Jupiter, heavens high lord, assigned to her in return for theft of maidenhood: Nymph, glory of rivers, most dear to my heart, you know how, above all Latin maids that have mounted to great-hearted Joves thankless bed, I have preferred you alone, and have gladly given you a place in heaven: learn, Juturna, the grief that will be yours, lest you blame me.
