He spoke , and striking the air fiercely with beating wings , he landed on the shady peak of Parnassus , and took two arrows with opposite effects from his full quiver : one kindles love , the other dispels it . The one that kindles is golden with a sharp glistening point , the one that dispels is blunt with lead beneath its shaft . With the second he transfixed Peneus’s daughter , but with the first he wounded Apollo piercing him to the marrow of his bones .
Now the one loved , and the other fled from love’s name , taking delight in the depths of the woods , and the skins of the wild beasts she caught , emulating virgin Phoebe , a careless ribbon holding back her hair . Many courted her , but she , averse to being wooed , free from men and unable to endure them , roamed the pathless woods , careless of Hymen or Amor , or whatever marriage might be .

dixit et eliso percussis aere pennis
inpiger umbrosa Parnasi constitit arce
eque sagittifera prompsit duo tela pharetra
diversorum operum : fugat hoc , facit illud amorem ;
quod facit , auratum est et cuspide fulget acuta ,
quod fugat , obtusum est et habet sub harundine plumbum .
hoc deus in nympha Peneide fixit , at illo
laesit Apollineas traiecta per ossa medullas ;
protinus alter amat , fugit altera nomen amantis
silvarum latebris captivarumque ferarum
exuviis gaudens innuptaeque aemula Phoebes :
vitta coercebat positos sine lege capillos .
multi illam petiere , illa aversata petentes
inpatiens expersque viri nemora avia lustrat
nec , quid Hymen , quid Amor , quid sint conubia curat .
