Fama, malum qua non aliud velocius ullum:

agricolas! quibus ipsa procul discordibus armis

fundit humo facilem victum iustissima tellus.

Optima quaeque dies miseris mortalibus aevi

prima fugit; subeunt morbi tristisque senectus

et labor, et durae rapit inclementia mortis.

Ultima Cumaei venit iam carminis aetas;

magnus ab integro saeclorum nascitur ordo.

iam redit et Virgo, redeunt Saturnia regna,

iam nova progenies caelo demittitur alto.
