- 29 BCE – 19 BCE, Virgil, Aeneid 1.84–86:
  
  Incubuēre marī tōtumque ā sēdibus īmīs
  ūna Eurusque Notusque ruunt crēberque procellīs
  Āfricus et vastōs volvunt ad lītora flūctūs.
  
  [The winds] fall upon the sea and they overturn everything from [its] bottom-most depths – together, both East Wind and South Wind and, frequent with gusts, the Southwest Wind – and they roll huge waves toward the shores.
  (The winds released by King Aeolus combine to cause a storm at sea; in particular, the hot “Africus” blew storms from the direction of Carthage. Notes: “incubuere” is an old form of “incubuerunt”. See: Anemoi.)
