-
Non prata viridi laeta facie germinant,/nec adulta leni fluctuat Zephyro seges;/non ulla ramos silva pomiferos habet;/sterilis profundi vastitas squalet soli/et foeda tellus torpet aeterno situ— rerumque maestus finis et mundi ultima. ("No meadows bud, joyous with verdant, / mature waves in the gentle west wind, nor crop; / there is no grove of fruit bearing branches to regard; / barren: and the abysmal fields lie all untilled, / and the foul land lies torpid in abiding sufferance- sad end of things, and the world 's last.") [Lucius Annaeus Seneca, Hercules Furens]
