 1    I|      tender corn~Lets in the flood, whose waters follow fain;~
 2   II|    Vesuvius, and the Clanian flood,~Acerrae’s desolation and

 4   II|    from the Danube’s leagued flood,~Nor Rome’s great State,
 5  III|     Furies, and thy ruthless flood,~Cocytus, and Ixion’s twisted
 6  III| first to try~The threatening flood, or brave the unknown bridge,~
 7  III|  meads, nor swim the rushing flood.~In lonely lawns they feed
 8  III|       past the loud Ascanian flood;~They climb the mountains,
 9  III|   While, plunged beneath the flood, with drenched fell,~The
10  III| emotion, nor rock-channelled flood,~More pure than amber speeding
11   IV|    Persian presses, and that flood~Which from the swart-skinned
12   IV|   home~Beneath this whirling flood, if he thou sayest,~Apollo,
13   IV|      So saying, she bids the flood yawn wide and yield~A pathway
14   IV|     Tiber, and whence Anio’s flood,~And Hypanis that roars
