tunc flavum Hypanin flavumque Politen (ille genas Phoebo, crinem hic pascebat Iaccho: saevus uterque deus); victis Hyperenora iungit conversumque fuga Damasum; sed lapsa per armos hasta viri trans pectus abit parmamque tenenti excutit et summa fugiens in cuspide portat.
Then for blond Hypanis and blond Polites'the one keeping his beard for Phoebus, the other his hair for Bacchus, but both gods were unkind. To the vanquished he joins Hyperenor and Damasus, who had turned to flee; but the spear, slipping through his shoulders, runs out through his chest and shakes the shield from his grasp, carrying it on the point in flight.
