XXXII

Moechus eram regis, sed lignea membra sequebar;
Et Cilicum mons sum, sed mons sum nomine multo;
Et vehor in caelis et in ipsis ambulo terris.

Peck:

A tyrant's sport, though wooden members led,
My name to many mountains I have spread,
I ride the heavens yet on earth I tread.

Ohl:

An adulterer of royalty was I, but wooden members I pursued. And a Cilician mountain am I, but a mountain in name alone. I ride in the heavens and I walk upon the very earth.

Give up? Here's the answer.
