invidiam timuit Natura parumque putavit Arctois Alpes opposuisse minis, sicut vallavit multis vitalia membris nec semel inclusit quae pretiosa tulit: iam tum multiplici meruit munimine cingi sollicitosque habuit Roma futura deos.
Nature feared mens jealousy (of Italy) and thought it scant defence to put the Alps in Northern invaders way, just as she has fenced with many limbs our vital parts and placed more than one covering around the precious works she has produced. Even then the Rome that was to be deserved her encirclement of manifold bulwarks and had gods who thought anxiously for her.
