ac veluti lentis Cyclopes fulmina massis cum properant, alii taurinis follibus auras accipiunt redduntque, alii stridentia tingunt aera lacu; gemit impositis incudibus Aetna; illi inter sese magna vi bracchia tollunt mp in numerum, versantque tenaci forcipe ferrum: non aliter, si parva licet componere magnis, Cecropias innatus apes amor urget habendi munere quamque suo.
And as, when the Cyclopes in haste forge bolts from tough ore, some with oxhide bellows make the blasts come and go, others dip the hissing brass in the lake, while Aetna groans under the anvils laid upon her; they, with mighty force, now one, now another, raise their arms in measured cadence, and turn the iron with gripping tongs'even so, if we may compare small things with great, an inborn love of gain spurs on the Attic bees, each after its own office.
