      dum medicās adhibēre manūs ad vulnera pāstor
      abnegat, et meliōra deōs sedet ōmina poscēns.
      However there isn't any success of the efforts more present
      than if someone could cut with iron the top
      opening of the ulcer: the problem is nourished and lives by concealment,
      while the shepherd doesn't allow medical hands to hold out
      to the wound, and sits asking the gods for better omens.

      nec multōs adhibet. []
      [] 'A ceremony tomorrow
      I must attend in the valley of Quirinus at sunrise.'
