ceu primum ausurae trans alta ignota biremes, seu Tyrrhenam hiemem seu stagna Aegaea lacessant, tranquillo prius arma lacu clavumque levesque explorant remos atque ipsa pericula discunt; at cum experta cohors, tunc pontum irrumpere fretae longius ereptasque oculis non quaerere terras.
Even as ships about to venture for the first time across unknown seas, whether they challenge Tyrrhene storm or spreading Aegean, first test rigging and helm and light oars on a calm lake and learn actual perils; but when their crews are trained, then confidently they break far into the main nor does their gaze seek the lost land.
