Oceanum interea surgens Aurora reliquit:
Aeneas, quamquam et sociis dare tempus humandis
praecipitant curae turbataque funere mens est,

Ingentem quercum decisis undique ramis
constituit tumulo fulgentiaque induit arma,

perfossumque locis clipeumque ex aere sinistrae
subligat atque ensem collo suspendit eburnum.

turba ducum, sic incipiens hortatur ovantis:
Maxima res effecta, viri; timor omnis abesto,
quod superest: haec sunt spolia et de rege superbo
