cernere vicinum Geminis licet Oriona in magnam caeli tendentem bracchia partem nec minus extento surgentem ad sidera passu, singula fulgentis umeros cui lumina signant et tribus obliquis demissus ducitur ensis, at caput Orion excelso immersus Olympo per tria subducto signatur lumina vultu.
Near neighbour to the Twins, Orion may be seen stretching his arms over a vast expanse of sky and rising to the stars with no less huge a stride. A single light marks each of his shining shoulders, and three aslant trace the downward line of his sword; but three mark Orions head, which is imbedded in high heaven with his countenance remote.
