IN IESUITAS EPIGRAMMA 1
olim neci datis lupis Britannicis
cum nuspiam pateret exteris locus
tecti cucullis, devorant impune oves
nihil timentes, donec indutus pari 5
pastor cucullo clanculum Germanicus
orbem soporum suscitat, nubem exuit,
taxans luporum proprio vultu dolos.
his denuo pulsis gregi accedit salus
antiqua; fraudem Roma sed supplet novam, 10
gentique veste consona vulpes tegit
furtim irruentes horridas caudis faces,
vanis ferentes horridas caudis faces,
queis amputatis, tertium Britannia
canit triumphum; numquid haec ultra potest 15
pullo Latinus igne, aut arte Tartarus?
