ipse deus posuitque manus et bracchia finxit (materiae suadebat amor); tunc saepe locavit comminus, et simili stantem miratus in ira sustulit exsultans nudumque ad pectora pressit.
The god himself placed his hands and moulded his arms, love of his material  persuading, then often set him opposite, wondering at him as he stood in wrath like his own, and lifted him up in triumph and pressed him naked to his chest.
