habes igitur hic Dionysum inter triumphi Indici oblectamenta marcentem; habes et Phoebum, quem tibi iure poetico inquilinum factum constat ex numine, illum scilicet Phoebum Anthedii mei perfamiliarem, cuius collegio vir praefectus non modo musicos quosque verum etiam geometras, arithmeticos et astrologos disserendi arte supervenit; siquidem nullum hoc exactius compertum habere censuerim quid sidera zodiaci obliqua, quid planetarum vaga, quid exotici sparsa praevaleant.
Here, then, you can find Dionysus bemused amid the delights of his Indian triumph, and Phoebus also, who, as is well known, is for you a god no longer but rather, through a poets privilege, an inmate of your house'that same Phoebus who is a great crony of my friend Anthedius, head of the Apolline college, a man who surpasses in the art of lecturing not only all musicians but all geometers, arithmeticians, and astrologers; for I should think no one knows more perfectly the special influences of the various heavenly bodies'the slanting signs of the zodiac, the roaming planets, or the scattered stars of the extra-zodiacal region.
