At genetrix, primam funestae sortis ut amens expavit famam (nec tarde credidit), ibat scissa comam vultusque et pectore nuda cruento, non sexus decorisve memor: Pentheia qualis mater ad insani scandebat culmina montis, promissum saevo caput allatura Lyaeo.
But his mother, distraught and terrified by the first rumour of her calamity (nor was she slow to believe it), went with torn hair and face, breasts bare and bleeding, unmindful of sex and seemliness; like the mother of Pentheus climbing to the top of the mad mountain to bring the promised head to cruel Lyaeus.
