tum Danai gemitu atque ereptae virginis ira undique collecti invadunt, acerrimus Aiax et gemini Atridae Dolopumque exercitus omnis: adversi rupto ceu quondam turbine venti confligunt, Zephyrusque Notusque et laetus Eois Eurus equis; stridunt silvae saevitque tridenti spumeus atque imo Nereus ciet aequora fundo.
Then the Danaans, with a shout of rage at the maidens rescue, mustering from all sides, fall upon us, Ajax most fiercely, the two sons of Atreus, and the whole Dolopian host: even as at times, when a hurricane bursts forth, diverse winds clash, West and South and East, proud of his orient steeds; the forests groan and Nereus, steeped in foam, storms with his trident, and stirs the seas from their lowest depths.
