Carmen 23: To Furius

To what wind expos'd, you cry,
Furius, does my villa lie?——
Neither to the Southern gale,
Neither does the West prevail,
Neither to the Northern blast,
Nor to sunny-bosom'd East:
But, for an enormous sum
Lies in pawn my pleasant home:
To that wind expos'd it lies;
Wind of plagues, and miseries!
