4.

Sane meos somnus premeret quum dulcis ocellos
Libera quum curis pectora nostra forent,
Nescio quem puerum vide descendere coelo
Et levibus pennis praecipitare viam:
5Quo magis hunc vidi properante quaerere terras
Hoc minus et nostro corpore seorsus erat,
Ille ferebat enim curvatis cornibus arcum
Leva, et cum nervo dextra tela tenet,
Forte fuit iuxta iuvenis pulcherrimus unus
10Quem Venus in tuto vellet habere thoro,
Hunc ubi conspexit contractis cornibus arcum
Curvat et a digitis lapsa sagitta volat,
Evolat et pectus cari concussit amici:
Me miserum summo dixerat ille sono,
15Me miserum ingemino quid nam carissime defles,
Quid gemis, a sano corpore vulnus abest
Hoc mihi prae gemitu somni discessit ymago,
Tu tibi ne pectus foderit ille vide.

fragmenta (G. Pansa, 1912).
