“Incubuēre marī tōtumque ā sēdibus īmīs ūna Eurusque Notusque ruunt crēberque procellīs Āfricus et vastōs volvunt ad lītora flūctūs. [The winds] fall upon the sea and they overturn everything from [its] bottom-most depths – together, both East Wind and South Wind and, frequent with gusts, the Southwest Wind – and they roll huge waves toward the shores.”

(The winds released by King Aeolus combine to cause a storm at sea; in particular, the hot “Africus” blew storms from the direction of Carthage. Notes: “incubuere” is an old form of “incubuerunt”. See: Anemoi.)
