pater est natusque, sed aevi confudere modos: puerum Lapithaona Nymphe Dercetis expertem thalami crudumque maritis ignibus ante diem cupido violavit amore improba conubii; nec longum, et pulcher Alatreus editus, ac primae genitorem in flore iuventae consequitur traxitque notas et miscuit annos.
They are father and son, but they have confounded the fashions of age. The Nymph Dercetis in ardent desire for union shamelessly violated the boy Lapithaon before his time, who knew nothing of the marriage bed, unripe for conjugal flames. Twas no long while before fair Alatreus was born; he overtook his father in the flower of youth, took on his traits and mingled the years.
