More information about this poem and about the color-coding.
Anguillas quisquis · captat, si limpida verrat
Flumina, s(i) illimes || ausit adire lacus,
Cassus erit, ludet·qu(e) operam: mult(um) excitet ergo
Si cret(ae), et vitreas || palmula turbet aquas,
Dives erit: sic iis · res publica turbida lucr(o) est,
Qui pac(e), arctati || legibus, esuriunt.
Notes: It is also possible to consider the third line to have a fourth-foot caesura; for the purposes of this color-coding system, I have chosen to mark it in the third foot.
