In my life many and infinite wonders I have seen, But who, however many his mouths, could proclaim, O noble clibanus, Your strength, having been born a worthless mortal? But rather Is it just that you be called a new fiery ocean, Paean and life source, provider of sweet streams. From you is born the infinite swell, here one, there another, On this side boiling, but there in turn cold and tepid. You pour forth your beauty into four tetrads of springs. Indian and Matrona, Repentius,
Elijah
the Holy
,
Antoninus
the Good
, dewy Galatea and Hygeia herself, the large lukewarm pool and the small lukewarm pool, The Pearl, the old clibanus, Indian, and also anotherMatrona, Briara and the Nun, and the (spring) of the Patriarch. For those in pain your mighty strength [is ever constant]. |
