arma virum, tabulaeque, et Trōia gāza per undās.- [These things] could be seen, scattered – [men] swimming in the vast abyss, men’s weaponry, and also planks [from the ships], and Trojan treasure – throughout the waves.
(The Trojan fleet incurs devastating losses during the storm at sea. Here, “arma” would mean shields, helmets, and miscellaneous equipment capable of floating; “virum” is a syncopated form of the genitive plural, “virorum.”)
