unde: cf. Il. 2. 307, ὅθεν, etc. loquaces: Anth. Pal. 16. 13. 3, καχλάζουσιν . . . νάμασι Cf. Leigh Hunt, Rimini, 'There gushed a rill| Whose low sweet talking seemed as if it said| Something eternal to that happy shade'; Words. 'Or when the prattle of Blandusia's spring |Haunted his ear, he only listening'; Ronsard, 'L'eau de ta source jazarde| Qui trepillante se suit.' The 'prattle' is perhaps suggested by the repeated l's. Contrast taciturnus amnis (1.31.8).
