sed non et Scythici genitor discrimine nati intrepidus tales fundit Sol pectore voces: summe sator, cui nostra dies volventibus annis tot peragit reficitque vices, tuane ista voluntas? Graiaque nunc undis duce te nutuque secundo it ratis? an meritos fas et mihi rumpere questus? hoc metuens et nequa foret manus invida nato, non mediae telluris opes, non improba legi divitis arva plagae (teneant uberrima Teucer et Libys et vestri Pelopis domus): horrida saevo quae premis arva gelu strictosque insedimus amnes.
But not like them untroubled by the peril of his Scythian child the Sun-god pours forth these words from his breast: Supreme Creator, for whom as the years go round our light completes and renews its manifold changes, are these things thy will? Is it beneath thy guidance and with thy favouring consent that the Grecian vessel now sails the sea? May I too break forth into complaints?'they are but just! Through fear of this and that none might move an envious hand against my son, I chose not the wealth of some middle land or the teeming fields of a rich country'let Teucer and the Libyan and the stock of thine own Pelops hold the most fruitful spots'nay, in chill fields oppressed by thy fierce cold and by icebound rivers did we settle.
