Here's a few lines from Sarbiewski's Odes. It's one of those cases where I think I can read it but I can't make any sense it. He's talking about the constellation Aries being in charge of the zodiac.

Demitque, et dominis cornibus annuit
Torvis jura leonibus

-que links to the previous sentence. It seems to translate as "And Aries withdraws privileges from savage lions and nods assent with his lordly horns." But the nodding assent is a non sequitur because the context is that Aries is the leader.

Edit: I have put on my textual critic hat, and I think annuit may in error for abnuit.
