Pangaea quod ab arce nefas ait, Aeole, vidi! Graia novam ferro molem commenta iuventus pergit et ingenti gaudens domat aequora velo, nec mihi libertas imis freta tollere harenis, qualis eram nondum vinclis et carcere clausus hinc animi structaeque viris fiducia puppis, quod Borean sub rege vident.
Ah! what monstrous deed, Aeolus, have I spied from the heights of Pangaeus! Grecian heroes have devised a strange engine with the axe, and now go forward triumphing joyously over the seas with a huge sail, nor have I power of myself to stir up the sea from its sandy depths, as I had or ever I was fettered and imprisoned. This it is that gives them courage and confidence in the vessel they have built, that they see Boreas ruled by a king.
