General note

Felix qui potuit rerum cognoscere causas: …Qua causa, argentea Phoebe Passibus haud aequis graditur, cur subdita nulli Hactenus Astinomo, numerorum foena recusant Cur remeant Nodi, cur qu' Auges progrediuntur. …Quantis refluum, saga Cynthia pontum Viribus impellit, dum fractis fluctibus ulvam Deserit, ac nautis suspectas nudat arenas, Alternis vicibus suprema ad littoral pulsans.--Virg.
