sint haec barbaricis gentilia numina pagis, quos penes omne sacrum est, quidquid formidotremendum suaserit; horrificos quos prodigialia cogunt credere monstra deos, quos sanguinolentus edendi mos iuvat, ut pinguis luco lanietur in alto victima visceribus multa inter vina vorandis.
Leave these heathen divinities to pagan barbarians; with them everything that fear has taught them to dread is held sacred; signs and marvels compel them to believe in frightful gods, and they find satisfaction in the bloody eating that is their custom, which makes them slaughter a fattened victim in a lofty grove to devour its flesh with floods of wine.
