illum ingens haurit specus et transire parantes mergit equos; non arma manu, non frena remisit: sicut erat, rectos defert in Tartara currus, respexitque cadens caelum, campumque coire ingemuit, donec levior distantia rursus miscuit arva tremor lucemque exclusit Averno.
Him a huge cavern swallows, sinking the horses as they are about to cross. He did not let the arms go from his hand or the reins. As he was, he brought the chariot upright down to Tartarus and falling looked back at the sky and groaned to see the plain meet, until a fainter tremor mingled again the sundered fields and shut off the daylight from Avernus.
