Imaque de cunctis mediam tenet undique sedem.

Idcircoque manet stabilis, quia totus ab illo

Undique ne caderet. Medium totius et imum est.

Ictuque contractis consistunt corpora plagis,

Quod nisi librato penderet pondere tellus,

Nom ageret currus, mindi sueumtibus astris,

(verse 175 -)

Phoebus ab occasu, et nunquam remearet ad ortus :

Lunave summersos regeret per unanimouslya cursus :

Nec matutinis fulgeret Lucifer horis,

Hesperos emenso dederat qui lumen olympo.

this infinitive s difficult, cannot understood by just looking in Gildersleeve. i have to consult the other grammar about this. (May 22 Monday)

'tantundem refigi' seems to make an accsative noun phrase. (May 24 Wednesday) so if i reconstruct the sentence, it is like 'mundus fecit tantundem refigi ne caderet.' (May 24)

+ refugit > pres. or pf. of refugio : flee

+ cadendo > cado : go down, fall,sink  /  (to separate from something by falling) fall off, fall away, fall, out, drop off, shed  /  become less, diminish, decrease, lessen  /  perish, vanish, decay, cease
