GCSE Latin 2017, Virgil Aeneid 1, 6. Aeneid 1 418-436, Icebreaker 2

6. Aeneid 1 418-436, Icebreaker 2

427 hic alii effodiunt portus;

428 hic alii locant

alta fundamenta theatris,

429 que excidunt immanes columnas rupibus,

alta decora futuris scaenis.

430 qualis labor exercet apes

nova aestate sub sole,

per florea rura

431 cum educunt

fetus gentis adultos,

432 aut cum stipant liquentia mella

433 et distendunt cellas dulci nectare,

434 aut accipiunt onera venientum,

aut agmine facto

435 arcent a praesepibus fucos

ignavum pecus:

436 opus fervet,

que fragrantia mella redolent thymo.
