Atque hic ingenti Capaneus Mavortis amore excitus et longam pridem indignantia pacem corda tumens (huic ampla quidem de sanguine prisco nobilitas; sed enim ipse manu praegressus avorum facta, diu tuto superum contemptor et aequi impatiens largusque animae, modo suaserit ira),.
Capaneus was spurred by mighty love of Mars, his swelling breast had long protested lengthy peace. Ample nobility was his from ancient blood, but he himself had outstripped the doughty deeds of his forbears. Long had he despised the High Ones with impunity, impatient of justice and prodigal of life if anger urged.
