As when, in a bronze basin, the quivering water reflects
A sunbeam or the round of the radiant moon, a light
Goes glancing hither and thither, now shooting up from the water
And jigging upon the fretted ceiling over your head.
Sicut aquae tremulum labris ubi lumen aenis
sole repercussum aut radiantis imagine lunae
omnia pervolitat late loca, iamque sub auras
erigitur summique ferit laquearia tecti.
