All were attentive to the godlike man, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAF55dtLKOj8
When from his lofty couch he thus began: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANALXDCx0xq4a
"Great queen, what you command me to relate 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAkjQzKhJoUP
Renews the sad remembrance of our fate: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAo0Hy8iYt4A
An empire from its old foundations rent, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAUB4GRwdxU1
And ev'ry woe the Trojans underwent; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANATR4Qr93432
A peopled city made a desart place; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAL3h6TBcet9
All that I saw, and part of which I was: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAHrkWNimxxB
Not ev'n the hardest of our foes could hear, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAgvS3sNPLVY
Nor stern Ulysses tell without a tear. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAAJdKkg0OjS
And now the latter watch of wasting night, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAzDnvqjjdOQ
And setting stars, to kindly rest invite; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAeWjkJ2bn7s
But, since you take such int'rest in our woe, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA3xnwmlT5zE
And Troy's disastrous end desire to know, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAasbBjs4MdH
I will restrain my tears, and briefly tell 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAns1sopwC6p
What in our last and fatal night befell. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAceQJ8nShil
"By destiny compell'd, and in despair, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAlYYcRJNngH
The Greeks grew weary of the tedious war, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANATaCxIx6DJ7
And by Minerva's aid a fabric rear'd, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANArn2q7cRyTD
Which like a steed of monstrous height appear'd: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA7OuR7vASZp
The sides were plank'd with pine; they feign'd it made 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAlRwoR83qCP
For their return, and this the vow they paid. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAPaCAKfWsZx
Thus they pretend, but in the hollow side 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAxqh2mWGnCk
Selected numbers of their soldiers hide: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAWqgjuDkCHI
With inward arms the dire machine they load, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAO5pZvG0Icz
And iron bowels stuff the dark abode. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAnMxcFvhAWT
In sight of Troy lies Tenedos, an isle 1107Please respect copyright.PENANADfWfrbpy3Q
(While Fortune did on Priam's empire smile) 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAw1aRv6vCbK
Renown'd for wealth; but, since, a faithless bay, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA6WOgOAO2NC
Where ships expos'd to wind and weather lay. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAlb9ZN2VHCb
There was their fleet conceal'd. We thought, for Greece 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAsqsiiitjO2
Their sails were hoisted, and our fears release. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAO30EwSC6l2
The Trojans, coop'd within their walls so long, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAXy0cWwN5pI
Unbar their gates, and issue in a throng, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAD7xOQKDlmj
Like swarming bees, and with delight survey 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAfvgpQueyCT
The camp deserted, where the Grecians lay: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA9jdaB8Jwrd
The quarters of the sev'ral chiefs they show'd; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANATsNf3C5YZX
Here Phoenix, here Achilles, made abode; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAqQ0emdOzAI
Here join'd the battles; there the navy rode. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA22QKsXRamj
Part on the pile their wond'ring eyes employ: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAFyNViZ4zz6
The pile by Pallas rais'd to ruin Troy. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAutrer220Fe
Thymoetes first ('t is doubtful whether hir'd, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAfZi3uWexzs
Or so the Trojan destiny requir'd) 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAPvihy6cdQF
Mov'd that the ramparts might be broken down, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAbV0UCO0kJH
To lodge the monster fabric in the town. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAJs9O4WbE1O
But Capys, and the rest of sounder mind, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAc1L4nHkMA0
The fatal present to the flames designed, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANArf5EXCsbmy
Or to the wat'ry deep; at least to bore 1107Please respect copyright.PENANANquHzrntq3
The hollow sides, and hidden frauds explore. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAcfj0I5wR0B
The giddy vulgar, as their fancies guide, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA6bYn9jnSGz
With noise say nothing, and in parts divide. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAdB4wS3gjoK
Laocoon, follow'd by a num'rous crowd, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA8NaaissLMB
Ran from the fort, and cried, from far, aloud: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAU4oaUZOQZ3
'O wretched countrymen! what fury reigns? 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAZ2gc0TeWUW
What more than madness has possess'd your brains? 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAgM8B6RNKUP
Think you the Grecians from your coasts are gone? 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAiXjZDIknoY
And are Ulysses' arts no better known? 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAqcCvhTVn7m
This hollow fabric either must inclose, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA7tN7gFFvC3
Within its blind recess, our secret foes; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAhc31HYXOJi
Or 't is an engine rais'd above the town, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAU3XiyHWcmh
T' o'erlook the walls, and then to batter down. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAj13nBa0kBT
Somewhat is sure design'd, by fraud or force: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA1eJk4TC0M3
Trust not their presents, nor admit the horse.' 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAyTv1YgSf06
Thus having said, against the steed he threw 1107Please respect copyright.PENANATIxCxxuPo9
His forceful spear, which, hissing as flew, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANASVHBQN8idr
Pierc'd thro' the yielding planks of jointed wood, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAQufcex0sCQ
And trembling in the hollow belly stood. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAaaLNf9pOVS
The sides, transpierc'd, return a rattling sound, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAiFlYFw2XfS
And groans of Greeks inclos'd come issuing thro' the wound 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA9fLkRXDErk
And, had not Heav'n the fall of Troy design'd, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAjnuuA89VPy
Or had not men been fated to be blind, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAdHlfG8Ts6O
Enough was said and done t'inspire a better mind. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAbsGrHw4NcY
Then had our lances pierc'd the treach'rous wood, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAvpRrHU74j4
And Ilian tow'rs and Priam's empire stood. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAh8qfXhTYDD
Meantime, with shouts, the Trojan shepherds bring 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAEtgSWgXWsB
A captive Greek, in bands, before the king; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANANqVKtP0dqd
Taken to take; who made himself their prey, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAagJRenkQfS
T' impose on their belief, and Troy betray; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAUOsV9oKlPH
Fix'd on his aim, and obstinately bent 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAyj0UGjb0xN
To die undaunted, or to circumvent. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA7W9NSGWwn8
About the captive, tides of Trojans flow; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAjdE58UmjIj
All press to see, and some insult the foe. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAznjcghDoam
Now hear how well the Greeks their wiles disguis'd; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAFXNnWLivGS
Behold a nation in a man compris'd. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAFFrT7HbEqj
Trembling the miscreant stood, unarm'd and bound; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAnTvxyJSzzf
He star'd, and roll'd his haggard eyes around, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAgkeEC3N0aT
Then said: 'Alas! what earth remains, what sea 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAWQHHsbA720
Is open to receive unhappy me? 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA6Dl6VJT7fT
What fate a wretched fugitive attends, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAWb8qhM1Cmy
Scorn'd by my foes, abandon'd by my friends?' 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAaATU1aXhck
He said, and sigh'd, and cast a rueful eye: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAHCWW7V3qai
Our pity kindles, and our passions die. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAAGlXQPTh6G
We cheer youth to make his own defense, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAsDu1uRL7K5
And freely tell us what he was, and whence: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAfSoTPptTO9
What news he could impart, we long to know, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAhPhzI5L4nB
And what to credit from a captive foe. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA4M7kgPgzop
"His fear at length dismiss'd, he said: 'Whate'er 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAURHkiVQEnL
My fate ordains, my words shall be sincere: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANARnhIMI1OkN
I neither can nor dare my birth disclaim; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAYe6DMSIpW9
Greece is my country, Sinon is my name. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAh6AuDNufwp
Tho' plung'd by Fortune's pow'r in misery, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAU22xrKY8ef
'T is not in Fortune's pow'r to make me lie. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANActAF5E2Jcw
If any chance has hither brought the name 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAwkuJDHJVhe
Of Palamedes, not unknown to fame, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAMYEszU5J7N
Who suffer'd from the malice of the times, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAGDkJSNsJUo
Accus'd and sentenc'd for pretended crimes, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAkdaFz2rx1U
Because these fatal wars he would prevent; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA9fBmwfpryF
Whose death the wretched Greeks too late lament- 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAfXByG3T83s
Me, then a boy, my father, poor and bare 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAw4GDh6r41f
Of other means, committed to his care, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAvKPAV2fH3S
His kinsman and companion in the war. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA2H24lUJraf
While Fortune favor'd, while his arms support 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAclR3eadn0j
The cause, and rul'd the counsels, of the court, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAVaADMdghOh
I made some figure there; nor was my name 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAgtCgRdRPbv
Obscure, nor I without my share of fame. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAphNqCXzRNY
But when Ulysses, with fallacious arts, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAa5HWEdI2LD
Had made impression in the people's hearts, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAmlXUpdFLpe
And forg'd a treason in my patron's name 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAdXw1GlPOhK
(I speak of things too far divulg'd by fame), 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA72G5BfpXtJ
My kinsman fell. Then I, without support, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANADMWbx6p4iR
In private mourn'd his loss, and left the court. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANACYrcYliE38
Mad as I was, I could not bear his fate 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAfgeaBlHbis
With silent grief, but loudly blam'd the state, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANASkNkMTvZZW
And curs'd the direful author of my woes. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAueQwzpl3Ta
'T was told again; and hence my ruin rose. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAqPk3madLXt
I threaten'd, if indulgent Heav'n once more 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAPa7LdJOWEj
Would land me safely on my native shore, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA1VUgPON12e
His death with double vengeance to restore. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAGVkVDwMJxO
This mov'd the murderer's hate; and soon ensued 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAwoMc8gTios
Th' effects of malice from a man so proud. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANArDTOZgcAYU
Ambiguous rumors thro' the camp he spread, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAqY0x9iXqMb
And sought, by treason, my devoted head; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANApfekdysbNt
New crimes invented; left unturn'd no stone, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAjljyxjpdtz
To make my guilt appear, and hide his own; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAnfqSww8J3a
Till Calchas was by force and threat'ning wrought- 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAKXlxiZW27M
But why- why dwell I on that anxious thought? 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAsCneCgie7Z
If on my nation just revenge you seek, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAlSpJP6QETK
And 't is t' appear a foe, t' appear a Greek; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAaXBZDCXsUd
Already you my name and country know; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAmShssteKy2
Assuage your thirst of blood, and strike the blow: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANACeWbDgV0u5
My death will both the kingly brothers please, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAe17wOlDHUR
And set insatiate Ithacus at ease.' 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAWnK5iLj5si
This fair unfinish'd tale, these broken starts, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAnzcJdNpQN3
Rais'd expectations in our longing hearts: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAgWNVc37sjq
Unknowing as we were in Grecian arts. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAE9q0Z6vL6G
His former trembling once again renew'd, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAUsXX0DBfKM
With acted fear, the villain thus pursued: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANACwgKMKonE9
"'Long had the Grecians (tir'd with fruitless care, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAWJdBAlKAPX
And wearied with an unsuccessful war) 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAquDohKMnzT
Resolv'd to raise the siege, and leave the town; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAAPDmnr0Jer
And, had the gods permitted, they had gone; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAy5PLLvFgZN
But oft the wintry seas and southern winds 1107Please respect copyright.PENANABCoOGWcywO
Withstood their passage home, and chang'd their minds. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAwEBGvnxSZD
Portents and prodigies their souls amaz'd; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANACw9ypLRWvG
But most, when this stupendous pile was rais'd: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAhTND0lAQAD
Then flaming meteors, hung in air, were seen, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA4m348L8fpx
And thunders rattled thro' a sky serene. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAW7qdoZCsXn
Dismay'd, and fearful of some dire event, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAZlVNPBxFcw
Eurypylus t' enquire their fate was sent. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA7yJxAroA2W
He from the gods this dreadful answer brought: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAJX4qwb6XAW
"O Grecians, when the Trojan shores you sought, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAWsT7Xer5Va
Your passage with a virgin's blood was bought: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAdNLZYGrkBW
So must your safe return be bought again, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANATG9E3dYWer
And Grecian blood once more atone the main." 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAELlgfwVoV8
The spreading rumor round the people ran; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAbX85N0dsBS
All fear'd, and each believ'd himself the man. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAmYccDc6SZn
Ulysses took th' advantage of their fright; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAgMFBKJXe3R
Call'd Calchas, and produc'd in open sight: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAjNxbKsVJ52
Then bade him name the wretch, ordain'd by fate 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA3jpBwsx0UO
The public victim, to redeem the state. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANABfTLKkS8X2
Already some presag'd the dire event, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAni7Ya7ALJ9
And saw what sacrifice Ulysses meant. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAfapI5WqzM4
For twice five days the good old seer withstood 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAxYQAsv4GRf
Th' intended treason, and was dumb to blood, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAO4K97MZIon
Till, tir'd, with endless clamors and pursuit 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA81E17mgXhi
Of Ithacus, he stood no longer mute; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAvd6HjIRxAR
But, as it was agreed, pronounc'd that I 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAoSUHiIL7TA
Was destin'd by the wrathful gods to die. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAgQbLeebylH
All prais'd the sentence, pleas'd the storm should fall 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAtSgsiiq2dS
On one alone, whose fury threaten'd all. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAzUlCV0Pivs
The dismal day was come; the priests prepare 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAQtC5SNwBH7
Their leaven'd cakes, and fillets for my hair. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAUActKaQebG
I follow'd nature's laws, and must avow 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAyYHomC6qt7
I broke my bonds and fled the fatal blow. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAX1Ti4J2EFK
Hid in a weedy lake all night I lay, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA77ww6Myb2A
Secure of safety when they sail'd away. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA87cDL6xi3R
But now what further hopes for me remain, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAG3TirBO1fG
To see my friends, or native soil, again; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANATpTLqW1ep2
My tender infants, or my careful sire, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAjThGBjlu3w
Whom they returning will to death require; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAaY9Ji7e1qc
Will perpetrate on them their first design, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAuCrwhi8rTL
And take the forfeit of their heads for mine? 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAXY0I0bxVxA
Which, O! if pity mortal minds can move, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAwSNauzSHfJ
If there be faith below, or gods above, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAS5vpGprNEZ
If innocence and truth can claim desert, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANACsBLKC1IWg
Ye Trojans, from an injur'd wretch avert.' 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA9fuVhmYUHl
"False tears true pity move; the king commands 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAv6jT56icWq
To loose his fetters, and unbind his hands: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAuGSBpSwc98
Then adds these friendly words: 'Dismiss thy fears; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA1JruaznmLn
Forget the Greeks; be mine as thou wert theirs. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA17dY25qefP
But truly tell, was it for force or guile, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAjF0B2hHYXZ
Or some religious end, you rais'd the pile?' 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA64pBZY9ROW
Thus said the king. He, full of fraudful arts, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANARa91rwYjcU
This well-invented tale for truth imparts: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA9r2m2LM43I
'Ye lamps of heav'n!' he said, and lifted high 1107Please respect copyright.PENANArNVs1zD36V
His hands now free, 'thou venerable sky! 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAFWZtC5CNpz
Inviolable pow'rs, ador'd with dread! 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAU4TdvH1Ufe
Ye fatal fillets, that once bound this head! 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA7YW97PjMG4
Ye sacred altars, from whose flames I fled! 1107Please respect copyright.PENANATgqEuiH9iz
Be all of you adjur'd; and grant I may, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA4L6fddWTHR
Without a crime, th' ungrateful Greeks betray, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA3wvZBZU2Ph
Reveal the secrets of the guilty state, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAgwVYH1kbtK
And justly punish whom I justly hate! 1107Please respect copyright.PENANARLJYuijrw3
But you, O king, preserve the faith you gave, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA8DLkDbnjCx
If I, to save myself, your empire save. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA8yGqnGEDxU
The Grecian hopes, and all th' attempts they made, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAvGcBX9JWux
Were only founded on Minerva's aid. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAQggMvIpM79
But from the time when impious Diomede, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAdx4ROefBzS
And false Ulysses, that inventive head, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAO1dPCZTi9N
Her fatal image from the temple drew, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAPTy0v1Ny2K
The sleeping guardians of the castle slew, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANATOnQKU9L70
Her virgin statue with their bloody hands 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA52pMo0yvPh
Polluted, and profan'd her holy bands; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAbonyZmlgD3
From thence the tide of fortune left their shore, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANASiTcaVCv2t
And ebb'd much faster than it flow'd before: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAYccqB2DgOz
Their courage languish'd, as their hopes decay'd; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAaIokGGNsRC
And Pallas, now averse, refus'd her aid. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAOeK04mW5Fs
Nor did the goddess doubtfully declare 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAFmG6H5X6KL
Her alter'd mind and alienated care. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA336zQbKmoQ
When first her fatal image touch'd the ground, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAugP90dgKD0
She sternly cast her glaring eyes around, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAA7PMQHVa82
That sparkled as they roll'd, and seem'd to threat: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAz3lz7rU2gZ
Her heav'nly limbs distill'd a briny sweat. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAgzL1fkqjor
Thrice from the ground she leap'd, was seen to wield 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAdJ0Gjzp1CR
Her brandish'd lance, and shake her horrid shield. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAD0oAP95GiU
Then Calchas bade our host for flight 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAllkziFNCjP
And hope no conquest from the tedious war, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAVro6bfTdmn
Till first they sail'd for Greece; with pray'rs besought 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAdHoxFP4RnZ
Her injur'd pow'r, and better omens brought. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAhIMjsYxWd9
And now their navy plows the wat'ry main, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANASZ662U1ZlK
Yet soon expect it on your shores again, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAn7M3cMHLcq
With Pallas pleas'd; as Calchas did ordain. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA44F2liOUZL
But first, to reconcile the blue-ey'd maid 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAi9lXQAJNKb
For her stol'n statue and her tow'r betray'd, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA7pugXNXl4d
Warn'd by the seer, to her offended name 1107Please respect copyright.PENANACKP2AOVjEe
We rais'd and dedicate this wondrous frame, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA9gDUjWY7th
So lofty, lest thro' your forbidden gates 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAzcWFjxWrnw
It pass, and intercept our better fates: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAQfT1ItjWfs
For, once admitted there, our hopes are lost; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAkfmTTjxbIc
And Troy may then a new Palladium boast; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANASpLxyitXAl
For so religion and the gods ordain, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAITybY6G5DK
That, if you violate with hands profane 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAzFZwBqlCQm
Minerva's gift, your town in flames shall burn, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAa2388s97Bj
(Which omen, O ye gods, on Graecia turn!) 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA0b3FifCR1w
But if it climb, with your assisting hands, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAa85Ey6Y8Ab
The Trojan walls, and in the city stands; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAt9sWNfpTaH
Then Troy shall Argos and Mycenae burn, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAiANQ5Mozbq
And the reverse of fate on us return.' 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA6mCGfYcjvM
"With such deceits he gain'd their easy hearts, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAJEelq43EYk
Too prone to credit his perfidious arts. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA1c1pgpAa5u
What Diomede, nor Thetis' greater son, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAZjKfsM1YXj
A thousand ships, nor ten years' siege, had done- 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAWjCfo0Ha3Z
False tears and fawning words the city won. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAOsyIdBLjrB
"A greater omen, and of worse portent, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAkRc4xbvDV2
Did our unwary minds with fear torment, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAnnzYiZJ5Vu
Concurring to produce the dire event. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAH2BWHZhbOz
Laocoon, Neptune's priest by lot that year, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAhMgQk6tqrz
With solemn pomp then sacrific'd a steer; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAkkTbH0YPrJ
When, dreadful to behold, from sea we spied 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAr15PnJvgQK
Two serpents, rank'd abreast, the seas divide, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANALVXcDEELik
And smoothly sweep along the swelling tide. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAQPEyJe8o3u
Their flaming crests above the waves they show; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAF36dlnbIdg
Their bellies seem to burn the seas below; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAFNHWaGG5pq
Their speckled tails advance to steer their course, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAKnwTXsiTUm
And on the sounding shore the flying billows force. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAK4IsnBHnY2
And now the strand, and now the plain they held; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANANpGXI8lHnf
Their ardent eyes with bloody streaks were fill'd; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAs2W6ZnODBX
Their nimble tongues they brandish'd as they came, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAYwon95vlKt
And lick'd their hissing jaws, that sputter'd flame. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAJCnBycTmME
We fled amaz'd; their destin'd way they take, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANANPGSjGA5t8
And to Laocoon and his children make; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAhDBSv8ozQ6
And first around the tender boys they wind, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANApnGPnarqEd
Then with their sharpen'd fangs their limbs and bodies grind. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAkGZRzlw4BJ
The wretched father, running to their aid 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAdEI6S3A9Dw
With pious haste, but vain, they next invade; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAwATUb0GUXs
Twice round his waist their winding volumes roll'd; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAZbis0YaCru
And twice about his gasping throat they fold. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAPYVHm0V9gA
The priest thus doubly chok'd, their crests divide, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAN1zgL11OX0
And tow'ring o'er his head in triumph ride. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAs4Uxx2cvKy
With both his hands he labors at the knots; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAjWGqZTWMZO
His holy fillets the blue venom blots; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAjpSAF92zPi
His roaring fills the flitting air around. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAZFlKybVslj
Thus, when an ox receives a glancing wound, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAUlgkJTyFwv
He breaks his bands, the fatal altar flies, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA2BujxhEL0V
And with loud bellowings breaks the yielding skies. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAnSMYJbo5Xv
Their tasks perform'd, the serpents quit their prey, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAPNbft4k3Az
And to the tow'r of Pallas make their way: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAEzKNB4sEhv
Couch'd at her feet, they lie protected there 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAxTSlIMHKvF
By her large buckler and protended spear. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA2ahYfmmotG
Amazement seizes all; the gen'ral cry 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAIPnJYqblzF
Proclaims Laocoon justly doom'd to die, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANApR66vHDLkR
Whose hand the will of Pallas had withstood, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANArXFzjtTykd
And dared to violate the sacred wood. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANArKcBT8vww1
All vote t' admit the steed, that vows be paid 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAbTLfwBkQJR
And incense offer'd to th' offended maid. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA2zYy0oWabm
A spacious breach is made; the town lies bare; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAfgPUwrnrFQ
Some hoisting-levers, some the wheels prepare 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAzupwqza4Yt
And fasten to the horse's feet; the rest 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA4XIvBFbZbR
With cables haul along th' unwieldly beast. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAvhe5DeuUhJ
Each on his fellow for assistance calls; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANALoMv5eyblU
At length the fatal fabric mounts the walls, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAdbfZCiZb1u
Big with destruction. Boys with chaplets crown'd, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAkyEu7ZkY9b
And choirs of virgins, sing and dance around. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAIKilRS1xhS
Thus rais'd aloft, and then descending down, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAv3LaeomrGQ
It enters o'er our heads, and threats the town. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAIGzgeO3ooC
O sacred city, built by hands divine! 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAP6PD26xuGL
O valiant heroes of the Trojan line! 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAif9zrOS9jG
Four times he struck: as oft the clashing sound 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAreMXUYR9S5
Of arms was heard, and inward groans rebound. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAsshCs40yzc
Yet, mad with zeal, and blinded with our fate, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAESLkO2kDWk
We haul along the horse in solemn state; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAwIHSzxmN5Y
Then place the dire portent within the tow'r. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAPWOl9dXZgM
Cassandra cried, and curs'd th' unhappy hour; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAxR3BNJzdpv
Foretold our fate; but, by the god's decree, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAsNf1eHqNvr
All heard, and none believ'd the prophecy. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAGopmYDg4QW
With branches we the fanes adorn, and waste, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAbi9ZoaFGRg
In jollity, the day ordain'd to be the last. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAkh1N9a2tEy
Meantime the rapid heav'ns roll'd down the light, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAurIxsLK4Z0
And on the shaded ocean rush'd the night; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAIxvnNEyECH
Our men, secure, nor guards nor sentries held, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA0Zp6Yr94E0
But easy sleep their weary limbs compell'd. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAq95XVGPW2h
The Grecians had embark'd their naval pow'rs 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAkMLPzcCesM
From Tenedos, and sought our well-known shores, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANASr99C4s4Tl
Safe under covert of the silent night, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAfOD6Rra2ja
And guided by th' imperial galley's light; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAb6FmDKCxlR
When Sinon, favor'd by the partial gods, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAyABCTM9KyZ
Unlock'd the horse, and op'd his dark abodes; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA1zFwuV4TzG
Restor'd to vital air our hidden foes, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAHamKEdG3fK
Who joyful from their long confinement rose. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAXvgHCWUgG9
Tysander bold, and Sthenelus their guide, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAL7NE7wsHja
And dire Ulysses down the cable slide: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAbdvDHipnCi
Then Thoas, Athamas, and Pyrrhus haste; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAWuJKd0mgmX
Nor was the Podalirian hero last, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAID4B6adg4S
Nor injur'd Menelaus, nor the fam'd 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAjuSWM1TUkh
Epeus, who the fatal engine fram'd. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAQhH5KHO5On
A nameless crowd succeed; their forces join 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAjMAdVD2aiH
T' invade the town, oppress'd with sleep and wine. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA42fbPdjDk2
Those few they find awake first meet their fate; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAb4ahfdsHF2
Then to their fellows they unbar the gate. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA3gfMZy2NWe
"'T was in the dead of night, when sleep repairs 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAGidPrYhPcr
Our bodies worn with toils, our minds with cares, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAIvxVLrMR1I
When Hector's ghost before my sight appears: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAP7wupzwxNm
A bloody shroud he seem'd, and bath'd in tears; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAytagwCoHWO
Such as he was, when, by Pelides slain, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANABCFWO4DKR5
Thessalian coursers dragg'd him o'er the plain. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA7XYAuu7EUY
Swoln were his feet, as when the thongs were thrust 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAPcwWG50Q4s
Thro' the bor'd holes; his body black with dust; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAsCN94gpGsk
Unlike that Hector who return'd from toils 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA7R5OO1yt1n
Of war, triumphant, in Aeacian spoils, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAj3g4sCmGpg
Or him who made the fainting Greeks retire, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAziJ2K0NHON
And launch'd against their navy Phrygian fire. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA4K0nEq87HV
His hair and beard stood stiffen'd with his gore; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA4iDJ6uOuMw
And all the wounds he for his country bore 1107Please respect copyright.PENANARwzjNjenjs
Now stream'd afresh, and with new purple ran. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANApGPB2odiEV
I wept to see the visionary man, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAN42T4wSwvs
And, while my trance continued, thus began: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAGhSC7PzhlK
'O light of Trojans, and support of Troy, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAa81ktX8ZS2
Thy father's champion, and thy country's joy! 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAderYI9yNoS
O, long expected by thy friends! from whence 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAttElZ8fw1g
Art thou so late return'd for our defense? 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAZGS5HqcV4K
Do we behold thee, wearied as we are 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAVePrklQR48
With length of labors, and with toils of war? 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAPChcxEh32s
After so many fun'rals of thy own 1107Please respect copyright.PENANASTpRzp5Lv3
Art thou restor'd to thy declining town? 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAAE5VCqlgQf
But say, what wounds are these? What new disgrace 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAeW6paTL7B7
Deforms the manly features of thy face?' 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAzGceXeZfBM
"To this the specter no reply did frame, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA17dSeSrMb6
But answer'd to the cause for which he came, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAYpmgXY0njl
And, groaning from the bottom of his breast, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAF33DMNgjQU
This warning in these mournful words express'd: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAT4jo8zmvaf
'O goddess-born! escape, by timely flight, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA2IuDX9Qc2q
The flames and horrors of this fatal night. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANARMyTnoBPCl
The foes already have possess'd the wall; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAJQTAHkkD6c
Troy nods from high, and totters to her fall. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA75rin7by9i
Enough is paid to Priam's royal name, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA8S6GG1AkCA
More than enough to duty and to fame. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAKcTIiojtg8
If by a mortal hand my father's throne 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAcNoB3uY7yM
Could be defended, 't was by mine alone. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAgY0g0PqBts
Now Troy to thee commends her future state, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAxcNvpWkCSa
And gives her gods companions of thy fate: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAsbQNu3TmS7
From their assistance walls expect, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAcrBYiAMj89
Which, wand'ring long, at last thou shalt erect.' 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAc1f7wFw5pA
He said, and brought me, from their blest abodes, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAb2Xt9kM1Ji
The venerable statues of the gods, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAvuoJWc67oC
With ancient Vesta from the sacred choir, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA0T1cUfUKuO
The wreaths and relics of th' immortal fire. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA0MG2YpRfKY
"Now peals of shouts come thund'ring from afar, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA5FsqGXBgK6
Cries, threats, and loud laments, and mingled war: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAYupz3uWpbj
The noise approaches, tho' our palace stood 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAYOMrAl5va0
Aloof from streets, encompass'd with a wood. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAlPwxEkINkH
Louder, and yet more loud, I hear th' alarms 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAamGEKUyP26
Of human cries distinct, and clashing arms. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAUBiSkuVoUR
Fear broke my slumbers; I no longer stay, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA8c0yZilmnJ
But mount the terrace, thence the town survey, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAtxLEbYGS27
And hearken what the frightful sounds convey. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAz1pUxns4JR
Thus, when a flood of fire by wind is borne, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANApAy9DVoC4N
Crackling it rolls, and mows the standing corn; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAugiceJvpBY
Or deluges, descending on the plains, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAtYj4qgT1tj
Sweep o'er the yellow year, destroy the pains 1107Please respect copyright.PENANANOKU9hq50B
Of lab'ring oxen and the peasant's gains; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAQHgeiZU0Bl
Unroot the forest oaks, and bear away 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAXlFy1KyZjh
Flocks, folds, and trees, and undistinguish'd prey: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAbGwZ7eYgOj
The shepherd climbs the cliff, and sees from far 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAKvNunFOMBS
The wasteful ravage of the wat'ry war. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAmmWdcE6XDU
Then Hector's faith was manifestly clear'd, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAJyRSFbR4Se
And Grecian frauds in open light appear'd. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAIG31uuuf5E
The palace of Deiphobus ascends 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAV7dfcXNPQc
In smoky flames, and catches on his friends. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAOMEn49pzcD
Ucalegon burns next: the seas are bright 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAK8WAgE1d9h
With splendor not their own, and shine with Trojan light. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAHrbwOpqhf0
New clamors and new clangors now arise, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAsZaMIFa7eV
The sound of trumpets mix'd with fighting cries. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA9bMEjlgVZC
With frenzy seiz'd, I run to meet th' alarms, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA3oiKBsQZ2D
Resolv'd on death, resolv'd to die in arms, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANADvBtimO9pi
But first to gather friends, with them t' oppose 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAwhuX0TyFP0
(If fortune favor'd) and repel the foes; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAHChKJA7lUr
Spurr'd by my courage, by my country fir'd, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAX5IPqpYfIs
With sense of honor and revenge inspir'd. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAJZQdLHvv9b
"Pantheus, Apollo's priest, a sacred name, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAnJc9dXpYyC
Had scap'd the Grecian swords, and pass'd the flame: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAe8mlSgPgQr
With relics loaden. to my doors he fled, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAs5jsqmTE36
And by the hand his tender grandson led. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAZMWtfW7sxQ
'What hope, O Pantheus? whither can we run? 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAVRbHRyEK3e
Where make a stand? and what may yet be done?' 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAeUuSmsgQfX
Scarce had I said, when Pantheus, with a groan: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAWCO8pECaYK
'Troy is no more, and Ilium was a town! 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAaXbBgzf2kW
The fatal day, th' appointed hour, is come, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA6d4a0Qmrt9
When wrathful Jove's irrevocable doom 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA8VtIVBubKH
Transfers the Trojan state to Grecian hands. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAe8VaxJqqOM
The fire consumes the town, the foe commands; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAx1VVlYVbTW
And armed hosts, an unexpected force, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAcYrSMV2j8e
Break from the bowels of the fatal horse. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAjyzu8PdSFs
Within the gates, proud Sinon throws about 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAMYt7HHB2WI
The flames; and foes for entrance press without, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA2t9hOrwssS
With thousand others, whom I fear to name, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA4ZE7YnLZj5
More than from Argos or Mycenae came. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA1fNp1JX6FC
To sev'ral posts their parties they divide; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAKuuascwxLt
Some block the narrow streets, some scour the wide: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAt0671AZtBW
The bold they kill, th' unwary they surprise; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAswfp1w38jW
Who fights finds death, and death finds him who flies. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAdJo1rLx2vN
The warders of the gate but scarce maintain 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAuv1P8CkfsC
Th' unequal combat, and resist in vain.' 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAwgdwIriiia
"I heard; and Heav'n, that well-born souls inspires, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAnnSMfzi3wn
Prompts me thro' lifted swords and rising fires 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA3NYf1EzeBY
To run where clashing arms and clamor calls, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAmRfP9BRtxC
And rush undaunted to defend the walls. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAez7mkZT9QQ
Ripheus and Iph'itus by my side engage, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAkJB5jBPf8X
For valor one renown'd, and one for age. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAhEtKrDWudQ
Dymas and Hypanis by moonlight knew 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAhENSGGH9be
My motions and my mien, and to my party drew; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANASwyv4yIVIx
With young Coroebus, who by love was led 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAhaGLdtfkXb
To win renown and fair Cassandra's bed, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAMh9fpCqo1K
And lately brought his troops to Priam's aid, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAe6yTRMC4fD
Forewarn'd in vain by the prophetic maid. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAcpokOVILoQ
Whom when I saw resolv'd in arms to fall, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAf9gsnwfVxu
And that one spirit animated all: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAPTyJSPP36S
'Brave souls!' said I,- 'but brave, alas! in vain- 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAn6FzP05ZKY
Come, finish what our cruel fates ordain. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAozktQShHFs
You see the desp'rate state of our affairs, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA5LGGBFIMIb
And heav'n's protecting pow'rs are deaf to pray'rs. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA9ofAosYcyo
The passive gods behold the Greeks defile 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA26UOZdpovU
Their temples, and abandon to the spoil 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAGfUGlNmmbD
Their own abodes: we, feeble few, conspire 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA8dMi35z3FE
To save a sinking town, involv'd in fire. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA8KxLcxhbmZ
Then let us fall, but fall amidst our foes: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAoRKiNOoNg5
Despair of life the means of living shows.' 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAvC43ZZS0jz
So bold a speech incourag'd their desire 1107Please respect copyright.PENANARacx7YfUYq
Of death, and added fuel to their fire. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAojZDgaRzrw
"As hungry wolves, with raging appetite, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA0vU8VgrAbv
Scour thro' the fields, nor fear the stormy night- 1107Please respect copyright.PENANALzicdyv9FY
Their whelps at home expect the promis'd food, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAo7iXlGW1UB
And long to temper their dry chaps in blood- 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAlgige4IQ62
So rush'd we forth at once; resolv'd to die, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA9TuD52blw1
Resolv'd, in death, the last extremes to try. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA3n8A42M5dh
We leave the narrow lanes behind, and dare 1107Please respect copyright.PENANALee0ukr5xP
Th' unequal combat in the public square: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAXs8uCKpZFP
Night was our friend; our leader was despair. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAstIIVCZQo8
What tongue can tell the slaughter of that night? 1107Please respect copyright.PENANABJls5bV0Mn
What eyes can weep the sorrows and affright? 1107Please respect copyright.PENANArMuLf0mHrg
An ancient and imperial city falls: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAZlc6IugP5x
The streets are fill'd with frequent funerals; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAymKKX5C7Od
Houses and holy temples float in blood, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAs29xaPwVVl
And hostile nations make a common flood. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAlgGBVKJZWl
Not only Trojans fall; but, in their turn, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAnAFcXJcqAO
The vanquish'd triumph, and the victors mourn. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAWFPHxhgtyo
Ours take new courage from despair and night: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAe3hm234xXn
Confus'd the fortune is, confus'd the fight. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAEZzDMjB8NO
All parts resound with tumults, plaints, and fears; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAj49BullCuf
And grisly Death in sundry shapes appears. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAjrFg0fDhLH
Androgeos fell among us, with his band, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAstrPQRJVXj
Who thought us Grecians newly come to land. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAMYSOW8jS8g
'From whence,' said he, 'my friends, this long delay? 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAECmLiO3Fr8
You loiter, while the spoils are borne away: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAMULcB9scnR
Our ships are laden with the Trojan store; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAR0JifusHcn
And you, like truants, come too late ashore.' 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAXDTlwr7sQN
He said, but soon corrected his mistake, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAEL9p4KtNLL
Found, by the doubtful answers which we make: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAO5FG2J0Md3
Amaz'd, he would have shunn'd th' unequal fight; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAzyWZqMO8JZ
But we, more num'rous, intercept his flight. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAaAbG35LC3S
As when some peasant, in a bushy brake, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA9Xn7qMXCQn
Has with unwary footing press'd a snake; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAe1ypJUNv9h
He starts aside, astonish'd, when he spies 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA86KzFKSUxC
His rising crest, blue neck, and rolling eyes; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAchb06OBx5s
So from our arms surpris'd Androgeos flies. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAlSL94nsIeS
In vain; for him and his we compass'd round, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAlOIfvU7qT6
Possess'd with fear, unknowing of the ground, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAqXUxHFgx0o
And of their lives an easy conquest found. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA3QCDPTOhcy
Thus Fortune on our first endeavor smil'd. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA03j3sWSgaq
Coroebus then, with youthful hopes beguil'd, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA1u79JGVNGi
Swoln with success, and a daring mind, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAQKvMKfP7Mx
This new invention fatally design'd. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAqD1wlYuelc
'My friends,' said he, 'since Fortune shows the way, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANADJb2XFsXNW
'T is fit we should th' auspicious guide obey. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAmKrjRZCFH7
For what has she these Grecian arms bestow'd, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA3QJc9pjQVn
But their destruction, and the Trojans' good? 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAwwXG4nE6mh
Then change we shields, and their devices bear: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAbUdXBA6gK1
Let fraud supply the want of force in war. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAY9uJtwxUr3
They find us arms.' This said, himself he dress'd 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA2qi2jS0zip
In dead Androgeos' spoils, his upper vest, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANABYPGbcpxcn
His painted buckler, and his plumy crest. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAR1CkydWXs4
Thus Ripheus, Dymas, all the Trojan train, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAhXjS5WpJz2
Lay down their own attire, and strip the slain. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAx3GuCHpBTT
Mix'd with the Greeks, we go with ill presage, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAQseDwETf3j
Flatter'd with hopes to glut our greedy rage; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAtbHwX2E5Ck
Unknown, assaulting whom we blindly meet, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAoTZWXVv8bq
And strew with Grecian carcasses the street. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAwPRAQlO02j
Thus while their straggling parties we defeat, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAamlEVcO1Bm
Some to the shore and safer ships retreat; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAHZfYnwXM2h
And some, oppress'd with more ignoble fear, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA2qikz8s3Xv
Remount the hollow horse, and pant in secret there. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA0YRpGqGBui
"But, ah! what use of valor can be made, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAtc1dfNrANb
When heav'n's propitious pow'rs refuse their aid! 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA2gygzPLfql
Behold the royal prophetess, the fair 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAVqdYHXbj9e
Cassandra, dragg'd by her dishevel'd hair, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAUlDUc8NSzB
Whom not Minerva's shrine, nor sacred bands, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAzr6YdQLiDH
In safety could protect from sacrilegious hands: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA6lEVcp4AEW
On heav'n she cast her eyes, she sigh'd, she cried- 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAAM5I8Nzch9
'T was all she could- her tender arms were tied. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA392blFBY6u
So sad a sight Coroebus could not bear; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAOb51g7xeJS
But, fir'd with rage, distracted with despair, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAZ2cCjg5eJg
Amid the barb'rous ravishers he flew: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAMuN4pwlDC4
Our leader's rash example we pursue. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAIa0Qrfw1rX
But storms of stones, from the proud temple's height, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAbS8ZSGv6tH
Pour down, and on our batter'd helms alight: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAoqnYJVXAJl
We from our friends receiv'd this fatal blow, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAEb48bHdu34
Who thought us Grecians, as we seem'd in show. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA0Ppgf4ZTa6
They aim at the mistaken crests, from high; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA4whJQGbFHc
And ours beneath the pond'rous ruin lie. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANALOFtyHGfQo
Then, mov'd with anger and disdain, to see 1107Please respect copyright.PENANANzVO6FesYI
Their troops dispers'd, the royal virgin free, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAHmP0Vi88Hn
The Grecians rally, and their pow'rs unite, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAEXXWhdq6Xs
With fury charge us, and renew the fight. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAJ0AajgEAc3
The brother kings with Ajax join their force, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAHtdTq1EZT2
And the whole squadron of Thessalian horse. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAlQ506uHjHQ
"Thus, when the rival winds their quarrel try, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAwrA6exs0UK
Contending for the kingdom of the sky, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAkHc759xQ9E
South, east, and west, on airy coursers borne; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANALScsvm4FcP
The whirlwind gathers, and the woods are torn: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAGAkNt4hAaq
Then Nereus strikes the deep; the billows rise, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANABZAPWutBSo
And, mix'd with ooze and sand, pollute the skies. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANArNBlUhoJ3l
The troops we squander'd first again appear 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAPdw5zGcqjX
From several quarters, and enclose the rear. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANANdXVNETIei
They first observe, and to the rest betray, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA41TQ7lPyxA
Our diff'rent speech; our borrow'd arms survey. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAbdYMiWKK5u
Oppress'd with odds, we fall; Coroebus first, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAUZqxh0OAKx
At Pallas' altar, by Peneleus pierc'd. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANANjn8Um30o9
Then Ripheus follow'd, in th' unequal fight; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAGuzRWojBGD
Just of his word, observant of the right: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANALnUCjn2U9x
Heav'n thought not so. Dymas their fate attends, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAO1t18OFY61
With Hypanis, mistaken by their friends. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAvIgeKFu0zw
Nor, Pantheus, thee, thy miter, nor the bands 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAui4pyP2LBF
Of awful Phoebus, sav'd from impious hands. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAs0H3WFEbpf
Ye Trojan flames, your testimony bear, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANApSLtexsdBr
What I perform'd, and what I suffer'd there; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA43DRcrvfAX
No sword avoiding in the fatal strife, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAP1b02BiEdJ
Expos'd to death, and prodigal of life; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAuApmO3Zw28
Witness, ye heavens! I live not by my fault: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANArtQgeyPS57
I strove to have deserv'd the death I sought. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAb6VRMydBtr
But, when I could not fight, and would have died, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAOLYp4SKU44
Borne off to distance by the growing tide, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAVXILBS8Yb1
Old Iphitus and I were hurried thence, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAvQbRu3VFLL
With Pelias wounded, and without defense. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA9oEKlSpRWB
New clamors from th' invested palace ring: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAAXH8rXIaWN
We run to die, or disengage the king. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA1BtZXc8ISV
So hot th' assault, so high the tumult rose, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAY3WuijRDEQ
While ours defend, and while the Greeks oppose 1107Please respect copyright.PENANADyVL5Z429Z
As all the Dardan and Argolic race 1107Please respect copyright.PENANApQpWyDSPjY
Had been contracted in that narrow space; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAc91bB7IUOr
Or as all Ilium else were void of fear, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANActm6QAvm2f
And tumult, war, and slaughter, only there. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAtoBzoo9DdT
Their targets in a tortoise cast, the foes, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAq0266H2wkT
Secure advancing, to the turrets rose: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAvBzCRLaSDa
Some mount the scaling ladders; some, more bold, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA0ATKa4zjSH
Swerve upwards, and by posts and pillars hold; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAyFZv6vUN5k
Their left hand gripes their bucklers in th' ascent, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAiThzky4DSM
While with their right they seize the battlement. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA951PhAyTdi
From their demolish'd tow'rs the Trojans throw 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAx2ENRH1r5j
Huge heaps of stones, that, falling, crush the foe; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANATAYunMRUT5
And heavy beams and rafters from the sides 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA8yn5os3Tdc
(Such arms their last necessity provides) 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAuz8zo3UGf1
And gilded roofs, come tumbling from on high, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAagYH7C7myj
The marks of state and ancient royalty. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAJx5dkuRPee
The guards below, fix'd in the pass, attend 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAyqgoly85vZ
The charge undaunted, and the gate defend. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAAFF9gSq5OD
Renew'd in courage with recover'd breath, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAKJ8pcNua2H
A second time we ran to tempt our death, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAhtwDKdNLUR
To clear the palace from the foe, succeed 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAFOZh0EznLC
The weary living, and revenge the dead. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAzSWWYnzTHj
"A postern door, yet unobserv'd and free, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAhHYm6rTTx5
Join'd by the length of a blind gallery, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAiKMpNAFoHR
To the king's closet led: a way well known 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAcuJzbCveod
To Hector's wife, while Priam held the throne, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAUVPlCFNptw
Thro' which she brought Astyanax, unseen, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAb94D3nQURK
To cheer his grandsire and his grandsire's queen. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANArA0s89JrZU
Thro' this we pass, and mount the tow'r, from whence 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAwN0A7EU24a
With unavailing arms the Trojans make defense. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAYA0DPbW0vA
From this the trembling king had oft descried 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA78jVMUMnH6
The Grecian camp, and saw their navy ride. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAqZilVcHQaS
Beams from its lofty height with swords we hew, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAUfCQ0fmbWr
Then, wrenching with our hands, th' assault renew; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAFrKDn7VSbx
And, where the rafters on the columns meet, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAdoNO0qC7xi
We push them headlong with our arms and feet. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAK9KeGQKDKR
The lightning flies not swifter than the fall, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAKqLByaZkSY
Nor thunder louder than the ruin'd wall: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAcLSvDISc28
Down goes the top at once; the Greeks beneath 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAzWkU17BvlM
Are piecemeal torn, or pounded into death. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAxuTqdkrlTe
Yet more succeed, and more to death are sent; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAJUgzNHOrKO
We cease not from above, nor they below relent. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA13oCERNKsx
Before the gate stood Pyrrhus, threat'ning loud, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANANvMikewxDx
With glitt'ring arms conspicuous in the crowd. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA6zsF4XXVA0
So shines, renew'd in youth, the crested snake, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA6cwnk9JcCb
Who slept the winter in a thorny brake, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAME3AH7TvGg
And, casting off his slough when spring returns, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAHgOena46XQ
Now looks aloft, and with new glory burns; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA0TcARe4zGh
Restor'd with poisonous herbs, his ardent sides 1107Please respect copyright.PENANApaRvNLT4qF
Reflect the sun; and rais'd on spires he rides; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA06ALz4ugn7
High o'er the grass, hissing he rolls along, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAqV5CR0Sa2W
And brandishes by fits his forky tongue. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAVJm82JjiMZ
Proud Periphas, and fierce Automedon, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAviVyn2NT7V
His father's charioteer, together run 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAbqrV4FDGaQ
To force the gate; the Scyrian infantry 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA1QdmtHiUfd
Rush on in crowds, and the barr'd passage free. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAjlcssMDKNr
Ent'ring the court, with shouts the skies they rend; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA2NrT5cQFcH
And flaming firebrands to the roofs ascend. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA0VcxN8Bq4y
Himself, among the foremost, deals his blows, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAneLRfEx2Yw
And with his ax repeated strokes bestows 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAToq0AISvPM
On the strong doors; then all their shoulders ply, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANACOfkdOTUge
Till from the posts the brazen hinges fly. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAGKZwXytLIZ
He hews apace; the double bars at length 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAblOcKBYfav
Yield to his ax and unresisted strength. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANANUIVcPaOtU
A mighty breach is made: the rooms conceal'd 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAuL39tC2jDK
Appear, and all the palace is reveal'd; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANARC87lO8PK7
The halls of audience, and of public state, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANALDtBFpBwDf
And where the lonely queen in secret sate. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAhIxcN0ROWR
Arm'd soldiers now by trembling maids are seen, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAzWSN58T5fC
With not a door, and scarce a space, between. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAR0QtQUUJAF
The house is fill'd with loud laments and cries, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAFVEAIpC7og
And shrieks of women rend the vaulted skies; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA8z1pwBD4FB
The fearful matrons run from place to place, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA8893RzOao3
And kiss the thresholds, and the posts embrace. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA5LoXE3uVVH
The fatal work inhuman Pyrrhus plies, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAdzUlzxX9zv
And all his father sparkles in his eyes; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANATNLi4BzyPz
Nor bars, nor fighting guards, his force sustain: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAswAh7FUynA
The bars are broken, and the guards are slain. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAKFdteCxFdP
In rush the Greeks, and all the apartments fill; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAnV8gqdKNHu
Those few defendants whom they find, they kill. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANArMKhtNV0yw
Not with so fierce a rage the foaming flood 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAMPMkgw0xSJ
Roars, when he finds his rapid course withstood; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAZM5VRo7Z9f
Bears down the dams with unresisted sway, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANASNwcoqQz1r
And sweeps the cattle and the cots away. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAqlHJuhpNmW
These eyes beheld him when he march'd between 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAdUSbjyFzLh
The brother kings: I saw th' unhappy queen, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAMvgVGzqpan
The hundred wives, and where old Priam stood, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAw6asiTxB5h
To stain his hallow'd altar with his brood. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAvNXL9Rq4JR
The fifty nuptial beds (such hopes had he, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA4Hx9LawJV8
So large a promise, of a progeny), 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAKaqzI32i23
The posts, of plated gold, and hung with spoils, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAhSRFWLUklZ
Fell the reward of the proud victor's toils. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA6mB7204BEw
Where'er the raging fire had left a space, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAQDdk7fpLGh
The Grecians enter and possess the place. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAsSmeY8nRKU
"Perhaps you may of Priam's fate enquire. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANALxhbFZzQDU
He, when he saw his regal town on fire, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAA4VqrZuMfo
His ruin'd palace, and his ent'ring foes, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAxkxXi8nfyv
On ev'ry side inevitable woes, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANASEIwftHnKO
In arms, disus'd, invests his limbs, decay'd, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANASPAT9cZvu8
Like them, with age; a late and useless aid. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAyIAuDq68cL
His feeble shoulders scarce the weight sustain; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAVPFuwv48xB
Loaded, not arm'd, he creeps along with pain, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA6L56Pr2R3R
Despairing of success, ambitious to be slain! 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAf4gANXb1QY
Uncover'd but by heav'n, there stood in view 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAq0ji6qrQh5
An altar; near the hearth a laurel grew, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANANVZ9StJMDs
Dodder'd with age, whose boughs encompass round 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAr9Xgwx8rlH
The household gods, and shade the holy ground. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAJJQ77KuMLl
Here Hecuba, with all her helpless train 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAu0iAAnEyzM
Of dames, for shelter sought, but sought in vain. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAVaIU4NUyau
Driv'n like a flock of doves along the sky, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANATjqIbDUluD
Their images they hug, and to their altars fly. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAHl0rs442eE
The Queen, when she beheld her trembling lord, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANALzwp7wV4ya
And hanging by his side a heavy sword, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAWAJxIuBYTu
'What rage,' she cried, 'has seiz'd my husband's mind? 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAggcbhweyzD
What arms are these, and to what use design'd? 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAhPPbYXimZY
These times want other aids! Were Hector here, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAu4IVVzoiIq
Ev'n Hector now in vain, like Priam, would appear. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAE8uhpOHVik
With us, one common shelter thou shalt find, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAtMz8Q7KB44
Or in one common fate with us be join'd.' 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAWT2aD7YBsm
She said, and with a last salute embrac'd 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAOC4mnyThq2
The poor old man, and by the laurel plac'd. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAvEXip4YmM0
Behold! Polites, one of Priam's sons, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAMgzH9qlhkF
Pursued by Pyrrhus, there for safety runs. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAM146WHJkSr
Thro' swords and foes, amaz'd and hurt, he flies 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAOwkCnQgBci
Thro' empty courts and open galleries. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAZvI1WZS6Uv
Him Pyrrhus, urging with his lance, pursues, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAFFMzD0qCwW
And often reaches, and his thrusts renews. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAswDNc7K9zn
The youth, transfix'd, with lamentable cries, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAZg79Cahd5L
Expires before his wretched parent's eyes: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA7VOKQn0vhC
Whom gasping at his feet when Priam saw, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAtS4sS9satr
The fear of death gave place to nature's law; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAHMJLMLkqlj
And, shaking more with anger than with age, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAwnytPPr8Ma
'The gods,' said he, 'requite thy brutal rage! 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAEKdZGonozL
As sure they will, barbarian, sure they must, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAkt7TPnesoM
If there be gods in heav'n, and gods be just- 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAmfdlzTKVf5
Who tak'st in wrongs an insolent delight; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA1JFjYnT0XK
With a son's death t' infect a father's sight. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAG0BVs8HZTD
Not he, whom thou and lying fame conspire 1107Please respect copyright.PENANASUjL4gVbdW
To call thee his- not he, thy vaunted sire, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANArDTVns4QvC
Thus us'd my wretched age: the gods he fear'd, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA8aH6wQzkI8
The laws of nature and of nations heard. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAh09H7r5h7q
He cheer'd my sorrows, and, for sums of gold, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAFGxtb5QRaA
The bloodless carcass of my Hector sold; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA5VPvhtFB00
Pitied the woes a parent underwent, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAJvXHXr53yH
And sent me back in safety from his tent.' 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAMpopF6UxlK
"This said, his feeble hand a javelin threw, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAwdlF8DeFzm
Which, flutt'ring, seem'd to loiter as it flew: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAQPfQyO0qV2
Just, and but barely, to the mark it held, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANANaKx7OxWej
And faintly tinkled on the brazen shield. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAFdajyfe9Gp
"Then Pyrrhus thus: 'Go thou from me to fate, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAvx88S94wXz
And to my father my foul deeds relate. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANABnIrpfqPfh
Now die!' With that he dragg'd the trembling sire, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA2rPZ6UpHUc
Slidd'ring thro' clotter'd blood and holy mire, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA7dzqIIshcS
(The mingled paste his murder'd son had made,) 1107Please respect copyright.PENANALpwHgFrXtV
Haul'd from beneath the violated shade, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANALvHPUYYTi7
And on the sacred pile the royal victim laid. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANArM4hFBRrZ4
His right hand held his bloody falchion bare, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA8e2yHkxbht
His left he twisted in his hoary hair; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANATZFZPygeem
Then, with a speeding thrust, his heart he found: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAg8XqFCJSxs
The lukewarm blood came rushing thro' the wound, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA0L9WioTdyh
And sanguine streams distain'd the sacred ground. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA7Wu4TCBFtA
Thus Priam fell, and shar'd one common fate 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA2IczK67L9e
With Troy in ashes, and his ruin'd state: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAafZkkTM0cM
He, who the scepter of all Asia sway'd, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAHz5CaotjfS
Whom monarchs like domestic slaves obey'd. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA7KVs9eXHDh
On the bleak shore now lies th' abandon'd king, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA9jpOGNf2gT
A headless carcass, and a nameless thing. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAJGN3ugBhCz
"Then, not before, I felt my cruddled blood 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAXXcSEU4seH
Congeal with fear, my hair with horror stood: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA7YAsagOuP4
My father's image fill'd my pious mind, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAKP2tajAWLS
Lest equal years might equal fortune find. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAsdgo3bGdYx
Again I thought on my forsaken wife, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA8oWYFOHVzZ
And trembled for my son's abandon'd life. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAupplYNbXQW
I look'd about, but found myself alone, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA81nPTJv9Qo
Deserted at my need! My friends were gone. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAJOAAz1TZSr
Some spent with toil, some with despair oppress'd, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAwGJYQ4X5sj
Leap'd headlong from the heights; the flames consum'd the rest. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA4JgEwtMBhN
Thus, wand'ring in my way, without a guide, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAsA0E97cXUc
The graceless Helen in the porch I spied 1107Please respect copyright.PENANASO89ZR0I04
Of Vesta's temple; there she lurk'd alone; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAcH9l67DL1J
Muffled she sate, and, what she could, unknown: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAvhSGPu6ndk
But, by the flames that cast their blaze around, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANATPe2d3cZTO
That common bane of Greece and Troy I found. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAQDyyLwrDZi
For Ilium burnt, she dreads the Trojan sword; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA8iOnWwxR3a
More dreads the vengeance of her injur'd lord; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAZwxLrHz5Kf
Ev'n by those gods who refug'd her abhorr'd. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAZw3wTlqtQZ
Trembling with rage, the strumpet I regard, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAHx0UJAQHfH
Resolv'd to give her guilt the due reward: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAkBif9kVeeF
'Shall she triumphant sail before the wind, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAmo0ZVyR4Uz
And leave in flames unhappy Troy behind? 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAZowHLjjiQp
Shall she her kingdom and her friends review, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAL0MmrhCqFi
In state attended with a captive crew, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAmTGjTk99XM
While unreveng'd the good old Priam falls, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAG5NRY7dRaU
And Grecian fires consume the Trojan walls? 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAHsTd8B9UJc
For this the Phrygian fields and Xanthian flood 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAEXxLSyIrCq
Were swell'd with bodies, and were drunk with blood? 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAD3tIUkeMy9
'T is true, a soldier can small honor gain, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAVucWKflzT6
And boast no conquest, from a woman slain: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA9aG7IlpD6i
Yet shall the fact not pass without applause, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAt4JKEWGBtn
Of vengeance taken in so just a cause; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANApo9JWQWGt0
The punish'd crime shall set my soul at ease, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAwflmmqeh4J
And murm'ring manes of my friends appease.' 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAspf6Vllu6Z
Thus while I rave, a gleam of pleasing light 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAxTVKjD9JPC
Spread o'er the place; and, shining heav'nly bright, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAroR8Nh07Ow
My mother stood reveal'd before my sight 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAThxmqGzpPz
Never so radiant did her eyes appear; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAzzAmWx7V6E
Not her own star confess'd a light so clear: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAPYAeEAzDTL
Great in her charms, as when on gods above 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA57dJzdra2Y
She looks, and breathes herself into their love. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANABr5lwE7yJP
She held my hand, the destin'd blow to break; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAW2oPjyyDFx
Then from her rosy lips began to speak: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAYFtejfCAe7
'My son, from whence this madness, this neglect 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAmpgpGdtqjr
Of my commands, and those whom I protect? 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAKlWEMhu8ls
Why this unmanly rage? Recall to mind 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAby5ZLZdPmi
Whom you forsake, what pledges leave behind. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAz1TlAVIbYU
Look if your helpless father yet survive, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANATbrtae4Vs5
Or if Ascanius or Creusa live. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAA1xBBngRiC
Around your house the greedy Grecians err; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANApfsF4Thj3u
And these had perish'd in the nightly war, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAhYEFOPm2Rq
But for my presence and protecting care. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAhRuLkd48kU
Not Helen's face, nor Paris, was in fault; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAx3ost5Phh6
But by the gods was this destruction brought. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAhnxSwE5CgE
Now cast your eyes around, while I dissolve 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAUlEctanDNO
The mists and films that mortal eyes involve, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA0sFYbwCuhu
Purge from your sight the dross, and make you see 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA46OBr2x8Mf
The shape of each avenging deity. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAO2UuHUHG6A
Enlighten'd thus, my just commands fulfil, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAb7MejWK6Ed
Nor fear obedience to your mother's will. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAoXQ1Ejxitx
Where yon disorder'd heap of ruin lies, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANANjjsWB1w8X
Stones rent from stones; where clouds of dust arise- 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAB7Cn5Rlfde
Amid that smother Neptune holds his place, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAyeqLb36Wby
Below the wall's foundation drives his mace, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAPoaPSI0qaw
And heaves the building from the solid base. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAcgKLKZMLY0
Look where, in arms, imperial Juno stands 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA2mzMcuYft5
Full in the Scaean gate, with loud commands, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAATYGw9zCiU
Urging on shore the tardy Grecian bands. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAl5CZcquEyc
See! Pallas, of her snaky buckler proud, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAwpqwaNFbRa
Bestrides the tow'r, refulgent thro' the cloud: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAVOIq5HO9Rb
See! Jove new courage to the foe supplies, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANANr1pJmvgB2
And arms against the town the partial deities. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA247dBBbkVR
Haste hence, my son; this fruitless labor end: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAK0NVMqEGIv
Haste, where your trembling spouse and sire attend: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAvNu1M9kIN1
Haste; and a mother's care your passage shall befriend.' 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAd3CIbIjcAz
She said, and swiftly vanish'd from my sight, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAdfclzyDPCR
Obscure in clouds and gloomy shades of night. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANADE2C8PdkEy
I look'd, I listen'd; dreadful sounds I hear; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAMK7fgK8gwP
And the dire forms of hostile gods appear. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAhrcnJFgFqB
Troy sunk in flames I saw (nor could prevent), 1107Please respect copyright.PENANANgWexT0jk2
And Ilium from its old foundations rent; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAfKA0f7qOMm
Rent like a mountain ash, which dar'd the winds, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAzUrhTRCmSK
And stood the sturdy strokes of lab'ring hinds. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAeVeVwC02Ei
About the roots the cruel ax resounds; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAypsmNZh7dd
The stumps are pierc'd with oft-repeated wounds: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAI2BMeJNEb8
The war is felt on high; the nodding crown 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAFhFH6R2fW2
Now threats a fall, and throws the leafy honors down. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAC3pLOakSiw
To their united force it yields, tho' late, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA7JoPoHo5gw
And mourns with mortal groans th' approaching fate: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAUU84v6ZgH0
The roots no more their upper load sustain; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAIIMxrnwRoU
But down she falls, and spreads a ruin thro' the plain. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAOj0QCCmuzg
"Descending thence, I scape thro' foes and fire: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAynwCN7NELZ
Before the goddess, foes and flames retire. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAVw23V3AHPg
Arriv'd at home, he, for whose only sake, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAtUDWS1IXca
Or most for his, such toils I undertake, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA3tEOQDGbQF
The good Anchises, whom, by timely flight, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAMPXagsdQEh
I purpos'd to secure on Ida's height, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANALP9lV0bf7U
Refus'd the journey, resolute to die 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAZiQa4a28ki
And add his fun'rals to the fate of Troy, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANArR0IEgdlAb
Rather than exile and old age sustain. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAmAlJU4Zd3L
'Go you, whose blood runs warm in ev'ry vein. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAQen8PxWbdR
Had Heav'n decreed that I should life enjoy, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAbbbQx5fll0
Heav'n had decreed to save unhappy Troy. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAShqKEWy2Su
'T is, sure, enough, if not too much, for one, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAblyEs1A7vX
Twice to have seen our Ilium overthrown. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAKPy4IGjJov
Make haste to save the poor remaining crew, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANALrpovfkVen
And give this useless corpse a long adieu. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA1jXdV1qOOy
These weak old hands suffice to stop my breath; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA5NlzYOV7tS
At least the pitying foes will aid my death, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAleXhAoB3qS
To take my spoils, and leave my body bare: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANALB5l1DFd12
As for my sepulcher, let Heav'n take care. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAJ1aqDKGzKe
'T is long since I, for my celestial wife 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAdc2yrcdogw
Loath'd by the gods, have dragg'd a ling'ring life; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA5YD86B4rFX
Since ev'ry hour and moment I expire, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAL8CVCdi4AS
Blasted from heav'n by Jove's avenging fire.' 1107Please respect copyright.PENANASx0zebBYrC
This oft repeated, he stood fix'd to die: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAUNaPeOZ3Ke
Myself, my wife, my son, my family, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANASEvI0Xt08I
Intreat, pray, beg, and raise a doleful cry- 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAFgOuSzEC3s
'What, will he still persist, on death resolve, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAa61naalAmX
And in his ruin all his house involve!' 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAgPIGkr2CA0
He still persists his reasons to maintain; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAwnism42uMz
Our pray'rs, our tears, our loud laments, are vain. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANABQygQCpCwQ
"Urg'd by despair, again I go to try 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAXZ0f8WeIlT
The fate of arms, resolv'd in fight to die: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAnIWYzdmjb5
'What hope remains, but what my death must give? 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAqjZieyQwso
Can I, without so dear a father, live? 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAdVmuNdbpUb
You term it prudence, what I baseness call: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA4dfs9UlPxw
Could such a word from such a parent fall? 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA7XfubLZt1M
If Fortune please, and so the gods ordain, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAGqFkHb6xH0
That nothing should of ruin'd Troy remain, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAT0t8JlNvNC
And you conspire with Fortune to be slain, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAv4b6ECCeVd
The way to death is wide, th' approaches near: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAuhMbN1Hijw
For soon relentless Pyrrhus will appear, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAVcAmvvULvr
Reeking with Priam's blood- the wretch who slew 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAP2WsJEW1AE
The son (inhuman) in the father's view, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAkTC2gsfKs3
And then the sire himself to the dire altar drew. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAcWus5uiMrv
O goddess mother, give me back to Fate; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAuwlH2tf3cs
Your gift was undesir'd, and came too late! 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAJ2axjp4fKE
Did you, for this, unhappy me convey 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAEnBGy0ibZ6
Thro' foes and fires, to see my house a prey? 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAPTfFYaTNtb
Shall I my father, wife, and son behold, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANANjp9u4oncZ
Welt'ring in blood, each other's arms infold? 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAeSuEW5mwdt
Haste! gird my sword, tho' spent and overcome: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA6akFOYbUeg
'T is the last summons to receive our doom. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAJjhAsAPo7J
I hear thee, Fate; and I obey thy call! 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAtnMvXOog1o
Not unreveng'd the foe shall see my fall. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA6IqumFC5Pp
Restore me to the yet unfinish'd fight: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAfgaan3rg6d
My death is wanting to conclude the night.' 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAcipziPBHbA
Arm'd once again, my glitt'ring sword I wield, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANARQ23xPZLhI
While th' other hand sustains my weighty shield, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAjNvv76pkWH
And forth I rush to seek th' abandon'd field. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANATjnqZ1qrKT
I went; but sad Creusa stopp'd my way, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAxSdv6GMJ6n
And cross the threshold in my passage lay, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAVhhXnFETLe
Embrac'd my knees, and, when I would have gone, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAOcfwxXGJyj
Shew'd me my feeble sire and tender son: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAJ0AEBLo8F5
'If death be your design, at least,' said she, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAS2QfzJFmC9
'Take us along to share your destiny. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAwuNJnCFcfl
If any farther hopes in arms remain, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAvEGybeMmuI

To whom do you expose your father's life, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAvo61nCvWBH
Your son's, and mine, your now forgotten wife!' 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAGww0Dr7NYW
While thus she fills the house with clam'rous cries, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAzz89IGHwGg
Our hearing is diverted by our eyes: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAmcwhjqR1Jg
For, while I held my son, in the short space 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAu0IHQ9nbjy
Betwixt our kisses and our last embrace; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAfgOd3Affv1
Strange to relate, from young Iulus' head 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAmoTaaG5jjI
A lambent flame arose, which gently spread 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAaPOLZ4r3nu
Around his brows, and on his temples fed. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAsJqIwK1Dvv
Amaz'd, with running water we prepare 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAnoVm9VTvb2
To quench the sacred fire, and slake his hair; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAfIFPPR9e14
But old Anchises, vers'd in omens, rear'd 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAcLC415dmvz
His hands to heav'n, and this request preferr'd: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAlDu1nbKMFk
'If any vows, almighty Jove, can bend 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAXYokdMYnir
Thy will; if piety can pray'rs commend, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAQtxFrJorUD
Confirm the glad presage which thou art pleas'd to send.' 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAg9Mf9d1rKc
Scarce had he said, when, on our left, we hear 1107Please respect copyright.PENANASqu7jm6J86
A peal of rattling thunder roll in air: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA9oqLJaiViu
There shot a streaming lamp along the sky, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAbNA2gX8eAs
Which on the winged lightning seem'd to fly; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANANLTQhsGeKe
From o'er the roof the blaze began to move, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAteB4nfNlBo
And, trailing, vanish'd in th' Idaean grove. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAgWliKx1GS7
It swept a path in heav'n, and shone a guide, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAhjbB8Xd3P2
Then in a steaming stench of sulphur died. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAbljBqKLNAE
"The good old man with suppliant hands implor'd 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAGsSU4ojFLV
The gods' protection, and their star ador'd. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAsTksBRIXtU
'Now, now,' said he, 'my son, no more delay! 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAFQjKe7W7y6

And guard this relic of the Trojan race, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAkZnhOoAVIJ
This tender child! These omens are your own, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAL5oIWniIDg
And you can yet restore the ruin'd town. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA4pyss8SJ1i
At least accomplish what your signs foreshow: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAs7z6QlTpXc
I stand resign'd, and am prepar'd to go.' 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA77ewsl9YhL
"He said. The crackling flames appear on high. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAiHTpWL6d8y
And driving sparkles dance along the sky. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAbTDTNrX9nz
With Vulcan's rage the rising winds conspire, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAgLQGTGuPwG
And near our palace roll the flood of fire. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAasGNi8YINe
'Haste, my dear father, ('t is no time to wait,) 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAZSxaSYGisV
And load my shoulders with a willing freight. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA1NXHYPQUqU
Whate'er befalls, your life shall be my care; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAvJClOppDVT
One death, or one deliv'rance, we will share. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAnxvpTog6im
My hand shall lead our little son; and you, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAsXyq4qKMp6
My faithful consort, shall our steps pursue. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA6h3NJFDq01
Next, you, my servants, heed my strict commands: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAyf2yaKRF0N
Without the walls a ruin'd temple stands, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANADl1L4The0z
To Ceres hallow'd once; a cypress nigh 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAEpu8RFAcIq
Shoots up her venerable head on high, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA9DfkUN1aPc
By long religion kept; there bend your feet, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAPKI53oi7Or
And in divided parties let us meet. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAi1OFsxDnPA
Our country gods, the relics, and the bands, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAQxIiI0XgRD
Hold you, my father, in your guiltless hands: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAzrNw2zNuUV
In me 't is impious holy things to bear, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAk56eiLMHf3
Red as I am with slaughter, new from war, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAXkd7HQ9jDf
Till in some living stream I cleanse the guilt 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAh7sIGAfJHR
Of dire debate, and blood in battle spilt.' 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAGlBq0giMFJ
Thus, ord'ring all that prudence could provide, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAgDUvSU4zic
I clothe my shoulders with a lion's hide 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAoRPTFiDgCR
And yellow spoils; then, on my bending back, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAYac7NAWLY0
The welcome load of my dear father take; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAT5gaU80Wog
While on my better hand Ascanius hung, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA6V0WiX1rsq
And with unequal paces tripp'd along. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANASbKNptncd3
Creusa kept behind; by choice we stray 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAEdnSzSd562
Thro' ev'ry dark and ev'ry devious way. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAhaIuNn85jf
I, who so bold and dauntless, just before, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAfsVazEprnj
The Grecian darts and shock of lances bore, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAi2w25asDXi
At ev'ry shadow now am seiz'd with fear, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAT8Kzzc0gVa
Not for myself, but for the charge I bear; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAicG1C7e76E
Till, near the ruin'd gate arriv'd at last, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANACgTTtJS1EE
Secure, and deeming all the danger past, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAig7cgYxRw3
A frightful noise of trampling feet we hear. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANARKIQrs040E
My father, looking thro' the shades, with fear, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAmthA0ynVqi
Cried out: 'Haste, haste, my son, the foes are nigh; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAadBKIHIEY0
Their swords and shining armor I descry.' 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAFsJkqhrtex
Some hostile god, for some unknown offense, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAbnKpIvrjoy
Had sure bereft my mind of better sense; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAU79kCGAqiL
For, while thro' winding ways I took my flight, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAWOMiAyfca0
And sought the shelter of the gloomy night, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAhLaMu4pkHe
Alas! I lost Creusa: hard to tell 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAG8sM5kXXIX
If by her fatal destiny she fell, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAgfq8DXarMn
Or weary sate, or wander'd with affright; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAJZRTGpyDdc
But she was lost for ever to my sight. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAJ768h3LZLf
I knew not, or reflected, till I meet 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAC235yy4jiA
My friends, at Ceres' now deserted seat. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANADln65XGAnT
We met: not one was wanting; only she 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAk1Z2a4jWEh
Deceiv'd her friends, her son, and wretched me. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAuF1t2b6IsB
"What mad expressions did my tongue refuse! 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAJQIPpaHhTN
Whom did I not, of gods or men, accuse! 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAiyEgQgpXPR
This was the fatal blow, that pain'd me more 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAPG4gLhloqZ
Than all I felt from ruin'd Troy before. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAX7uppwrUsq
Stung with my loss, and raving with despair, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAcJq1csVh4S
Abandoning my now forgotten care, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAy0JZAL2XdO
Of counsel, comfort, and of hope bereft, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAu9tzBAxhpR
My sire, my son, my country gods I left. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAYzM6PXBZCu
In shining armor once again I sheathe 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAupA1puLuNb
My limbs, not feeling wounds, nor fearing death. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA4Pk1FOBydq
Then headlong to the burning walls I run, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAiky3CsGs2I
And seek the danger I was forc'd to shun. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA2kitIPdR5Z
I tread my former tracks; thro' night explore 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAXWN8Htues3
Each passage, ev'ry street I cross'd before. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAmH9AMDFLok
All things were full of horror and affright, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAryd7gLmmcj
And dreadful ev'n the silence of the night. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAxfDq3e484W
Then to my father's house I make repair, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAUMoqOvaCMq
With some small glimpse of hope to find her there. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAlKiZc3rbxK
Instead of her, the cruel Greeks I met; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA6GL3jjSEkU
The house was fill'd with foes, with flames beset. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAoQy8NR0YJB
Driv'n on the wings of winds, whole sheets of fire, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAFTs4pjnsCs
Thro' air transported, to the roofs aspire. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAr3HiracGxU
From thence to Priam's palace I resort, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAB53k2ROP76
And search the citadel and desart court. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAl0MvljbXrm
Then, unobserv'd, I pass by Juno's church: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAMyRQcSRTkg
A guard of Grecians had possess'd the porch; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAWDiYAs2SxV
There Phoenix and Ulysses watch prey, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAmQL1clfDKj
And thither all the wealth of Troy convey: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA3NaW37aKwA
The spoils which they from ransack'd houses brought, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAJcbOoW5xMR
And golden bowls from burning altars caught, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAf5QBNsykPm
The tables of the gods, the purple vests, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAhC8EPIno3j
The people's treasure, and the pomp of priests. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAwdcWTZV2s3
A rank of wretched youths, with pinion'd hands, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAwLBFYs6566
And captive matrons, in long order stands. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAt8soFuNBNW
Then, with ungovern'd madness, I proclaim, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA2zR5fIY6kq
Thro' all the silent street, Creusa's name: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANABtCvF3NRC7
Creusa still I call; at length she hears, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAPkMRRtVhOk
And sudden thro' the shades of night appears- 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAKpHuJ1h391
Appears, no more Creusa, nor my wife, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA4rvSJrbQ7D
But a pale specter, larger than the life. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAv8YosHFiEK
Aghast, astonish'd, and struck dumb with fear, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA3ilytXeKx1
I stood; like bristles rose my stiffen'd hair. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANADUKN9DvKWx
Then thus the ghost began to soothe my grief 1107Please respect copyright.PENANABbf51sl8mq
'Nor tears, nor cries, can give the dead relief. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA4ecKhVqh3Q
Desist, my much-lov'd lord,'t indulge your pain; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAdWVfECPzQ1
You bear no more than what the gods ordain. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAFWB1zET5Cr
My fates permit me not from hence to fly; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAMqOdSiWXS1
Nor he, the great controller of the sky. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAtgxZ07CPaK
Long wand'ring ways for you the pow'rs decree; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAlZpMamLS7g
On land hard labors, and a length of sea. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAB0NtwG7fTe
Then, after many painful years are past, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAkGQZ6nqAyY
On Latium's happy shore you shall be cast, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAQTFFK2GikR
Where gentle Tiber from his bed beholds 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAO2vXAUmb75
The flow'ry meadows, and the feeding folds. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAwfVVzlBWDe
There end your toils; and there your fates provide 1107Please respect copyright.PENANALiDvzVg88O
A quiet kingdom, and a royal bride: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAI8xjLLvzXc
There fortune shall the Trojan line restore, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAfdXAlHGQFr
And you for lost Creusa weep no more. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAI3QTfhbIaP
Fear not that I shall watch, with servile shame, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAWtB5XB5Jcg
Th' imperious looks of some proud Grecian dame; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAwxNxDqCpcn
Or, stooping to the victor's lust, disgrace 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA3bqwXJqKtM
My goddess mother, or my royal race. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAIzKLoBsyT6
And now, farewell! The parent of the gods 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAXc917OWbiD
Restrains my fleeting soul in her abodes: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAZBpCEFUnmJ
I trust our common issue to your care.' 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAIGkHlxXQuJ
She said, and gliding pass'd unseen in air. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAzeOKvpm3se
I strove to speak: but horror tied my tongue; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANACbq6rzTbR5
And thrice about her neck my arms I flung, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAgUmQdi8vVq
And, thrice deceiv'd, on vain embraces hung. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAZ45ugwEgVU
Light as an empty dream at break of day, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANADG5qj4MI49
Or as a blast of wind, she rush'd away. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAFxmliDQZAJ
"Thus having pass'd the night in fruitless pain, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA5N2k2wQ7EY
I to my longing friends return again, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAqhOyiUTm09
Amaz'd th' augmented number to behold, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAUEYaMP8wkJ
Of men and matrons mix'd, of young and old; 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAI9XjkIGNZw
A wretched exil'd crew together brought, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAATTL9IWJ7b
With arms appointed, and with treasure fraught, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAsuyITFdwL9
Resolv'd, and willing, under my command, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANADS2pmWrimo
To run all hazards both of sea and land. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANA5n9oDTZ0hy
The Morn began, from Ida, to display 1107Please respect copyright.PENANATKFQuGkYn8
Her rosy cheeks; and Phosphor led the day: 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAGxlpwkRL6q
Before the gates the Grecians took their post, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAVlcdNzn0ss
And all pretense of late relief was lost. 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAzo4d2t1Xiu
I yield to Fate, unwillingly retire, 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAL6tYgj3Btv
And, loaded, up the hill convey my sire." 1107Please respect copyright.PENANAWTS8inKXt7
