qualis ubi extremas Io vaga sentit harenas fertque refertque pedem, tumido quam cogit Erinys ire mari Phariaeque vocant trans aequora matres: circuit haut aliter foribusque impendet apertis, an melior Minyas revocet pater; oraque quaerens hospitis aut solo maeret defecta cubili aut venit in carae gremium refugitque sororis atque loqui conata silet; rursusque recedens quaerit, ut Aeaeis hospes consederit oris Phrixus, ut aligeri Circen rapuere dracones.
As when wandering Io felt the sandy verge and ventured and shrank again, yet by compulsion of Erinys must she go upon the swelling sea, and the Pharian matrons call her over the deep: not otherwise moves she to and fro and hovers by the open doors, if perchance her sire in kindlier mood recall the Minyae; and, seeking in vain the strangers face, either she mourns exhausted by her lonely couch, or flees for refuge to her dear sisters bosom, and essaying to speak is silent; and again returning asks her how Phrixus came from abroad to settle in the Aeaean land, how Circe was borne away by winged serpents.
