“equo ne credite, Teucri! Quidquid id est, timeo⟳ Danaos et dona ferentes.”

Do not trust the horse, Trojans! Whatever it is, I fear the Danaans even if they are bearing gifts.

“saepe illos aspera ponti | interclusit hiems et terruit Auster euntis; | praecipue, cum iam hic trabibus contextus acernis | staret equus, toto sonuerunt aethere nimbi. Often a fierce tempest of the deep cut them off and the gale scared them from going. Above all, when yonder horse now stood framed of maple-beams, storm clouds sounded throughout the sky.”

To what end have they set up this huge mass of a horse?

“Sed nos immensum spatiis confecimus aequor, | et iam tempus equum fumantia solvere colla.”

But in our course we have traversed a mighty plain, and now it is time to unyoke the necks of our smoking steeds.
