A septentrione ingens in litus mare incumbit longeque agit fluctus et magna parte exaestuans stagnat; idem alio caeli statu recipit in se fretum eodemque impetu, quo effusum est, relabens terram naturae suae reddit.
Towards the north a great sea rushes upon the shore, drives its waves far, and like a rising tide forms a pool of great extent; but in another condition of the weather the sea retires into itself, and with the same force with which it poured in, it flows back and restores the land to its natural condition.
