Devenere locos laetos et amoena vireta
Fortunatonun nemorum, sedesque beatas.
--
They reach the realms of tranquil bliss. Green spaces folded in with trees, A paradise of pleasances.

Lines 638-639 (translated by John Conington)

Cf. Dryden's translation: ... They took their way Where long extended plains of pleasure lay: The verdant fields with those of heav'n may vie, With ether vested, and a purple sky; The blissful seats of happy souls below.Virgil
Otium et reges prius et beatas
perdidit urbes.Gaius Valerius Catullus
Diva potens nemorum terror silvestribus ac spes!
Cui licet anfractus ire per ethereos,
Infernasque domos terrestria iura resolve.
Et dic quas terras nos habitare velis.
Dic certam sedem qua te venerabor in euum.
Qua tibi virgineis templa dicabo choris.Geoffrey of Monmouth
