Tum iaculo petiere decus, spectacula circi postrema, et metae certarunt vincere finem Burnus avis pollens, quem misit ripa metalli, qua Tagus auriferis pallet turbatus harenis; et Glagus, insignis ventos anteire lacerto; et, cuius numquam fugisse hastilia cervi praerapida potuere fuga, venator Aconteus, Indibilisque, diu laetus bellare Latinis, iam socius; volucresque vagas deprendere nube assuetus iaculis, idem et bellator, Ilerdes.
And now, to end the games, men sought to win glory by casting the javelin. Five competitors strove to hit the mark'Burnus of noble ancestry, who came from the banks where the Tagus runs thick and yellow with golden sands; and Glagus, whose famous arm could outstrip the winds; and Aconteus the hunter, whose lance the deer, at their utmost speed, could never escape; and Indibilis, who long had loved to fight against Rome but was now her ally; and Ilerdes, whose bolt often shot down the birds that flew among the clouds, and who was also brave in battle.
