Book 11.751-761
Tarchon is like an eagle who has grabbed its prey with its talons. The Etruscans rally.
Utque volans alte raptum cum fulva draconem
751
fert aquila implicuitque pedes atque unguibus haesit,
752
saucius at serpens sinuosa volumina versat
753
adrectisque horret squamis et sibilat ore,
754
arduus insurgens; illa haud minus urget obunco
755
luctantem rostro, simul aethera verberat alis:
756
haud aliter praedam Tiburtum ex agmine Tarchon
757
portat ovans. Ducis exemplum eventumque secuti
758
Maeonidae incurrunt. Tum fatis debitus Arruns
759
velocem iaculo et multa prior arte Camillam
760
circuit et quae sit fortuna facillima, temptat.
