at tribus exactis ubi quarta accesserit aestas, carpere mox gyrum incipiat gradibusque sonare compositis, sinuetque alterna volumina crurum, sitque laboranti similis; tum cursibus auras, tum vocet, ac per aperta volans, ceu liber habenis, aequora vix summa vestigia ponat harena: qualis Hyperboreis Aquilo cum densus ab oris incubuit, Scythiaeque hiemes atque arida differt nubila; tum segetes altae campique natantes lenibus horrescunt flabris, summaeque sonorem dant silvae, longique urgent ad litora fluctus; ille volat, simul arva fuga, simul aequora verrens.
But when three summers are past and the fourth is come, let him soon begin to run round the circuit,      to make his steps ring evenly, to bend his legs in alternating curves,      and be as one hard labouring: then, then let him challenge the winds to a race, and, skimming over the open plains, as though free from reins, let him scarce plant his steps on the surface of the sand'as when the gathered North Wind swoops down from Hyperborean coasts, driving on Scythias storms and dry clouds, then the deep cornfields and the watery plains quiver under the gentle gusts, the treetops rustle, and long rollers press shoreward; on flies the wind, sweeping in his flight the fields and seas alike.
