ELEGIAC VERSES Occasioned by the Sight of the Plains where the Battle of Trebiae was fought

Qua Trebie glaucas falices intersecat undâ, Arvaque Romanis nobilitata malis. Vilus adhuc amnis veteri de clade rubere, Et suspirantes ducere maestus aquas; Maurorumque ala, et nigrae increbrescere turmae, Et pulsa Ausonidum ripa sonare fugâ.
