LXXV

Evasi flammas, ignis tormenta profugi:
Ipsa medella meo pugnat contraria fato;
Infundor lymphis: gelidis incendor ab undis.

Peck:

Escaped from fire, I its torments spurn:
Myself the cure, against my fate I turn,
I'm drenched with water, then with icy streams I burn.

Ohl:

I have escaped the flames, I have fled the torments of fire. The very remedy opposed to my fate fights with it: I am kindled by liquids; I take fire from water though in its midst.

Give up? Here's the answer.
