Those who, light in vigor, drive kine in vain not hard to move; stones, radiant with sun, and the mountain, they scatter with the shafts of the year.

They who with mighty strength o'erthrow like oxen difficult to yoke, Cause e'en the heavenly stone to shake ' yea, shake the rocky mountain as they race along.
