Sede, novis domibus habitant vivuntque receptæ;

Ipse ego, nam memini, Trojani tempora belli,

Panthorides Euphorbus eram, cui pectore quondam

Hæsit in adverso gravis hasta minoris Atridæ:

Agnovi Clypeum lævæ gestamina nostræ

Nuper Abanteïs templo Junonis in Argis.

Which may be translated:—

Death has no pow’r th’ immortal soul to slay;

That, when its present body turns to clay,

Seeks a fresh home, and with unminish’d might
