quid querimur flammas totum saevisse per orbem terrarumque rogum cunctas arsisse per urbes? cum vaga dispersi fluitarunt fragmina currus, et caelum exustum est: luit ipse incendia mundus, et vicina novis flagrarunt sidera flammis nunc quoque praeteriti faciem referentia casus.
Why complain that flames raged the whole world over and that the earth became a funeral pyre which burned in every city? When the debris of the shattered chariot was scattered far and wide, even the sky caught fire: heaven itself paid dear for that conflagration, and the nearby stars blazed with unwonted flames and even now display the marks of past calamity.
