“Tum Pallās biiugīs fugientem Rhoetea praeter / trāicit. Hōc spatium tantumque morae fuit Īlō; / Īlō namque procul validam dērēxerat hastam, / quam medius Rhoeteus intercipit, optime Teuthrā, / tē fugiēns frātremque Tyrēn, currūque volūtus / caedit sēmianimis Rutulōrum calcibus arva.”

“Biiugis erit nominativus hic biiugus: nam alias biiugibus faceret, si esset tertiae formae ab eo quod est 'hic biiugis, huius biiugis'.”
This biiugus might otherwise be called 'biiugibus', which in the nominative is 'biiugis', if I were advancing from the third form (read: third declension) which is (read: gives us) 'hic biiugis, huius biiugis'.
