Neptunus equo, si certa priorum fama, pater; primus teneri laesisse lupatis ora et litoreo domitasse in pulvere fertur, verberibus parcens; etenim insatiatus eundi ardor et hiberno par inconstantia ponto.
Neptune was the horses father, if our elders tale be true. He is said to have been the first to bruise the younglings mouth with the bit and break him in on the sand of the shore, sparing the lash; for indeed there was no satisfying the horses passion to be moving and he was as changeful as a winter sea.
