Meantime the Trojan cuts his wat'ry way, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAjPsQCsgAir
Fix'd on his voyage, thro' the curling sea; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAG7g8vRnP1U
Then, casting back his eyes, with dire amaze, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAajTU0FwuL6
Sees on the Punic shore the mounting blaze. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAItjqsumTUA
The cause unknown; yet his presaging mind 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAyVYyFjvIP8
The fate of Dido from the fire divin'd; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAZ8DNQm3Nsm
He knew the stormy souls of womankind, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAXLcfQ5emwr
What secret springs their eager passions move, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAZJwKblZn9a
How capable of death for injur'd love. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAtTDILiUj6h
Dire auguries from hence the Trojans draw; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAuIqu2BoSBz
Till neither fires nor shining shores they saw. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA8RFSwkZvkY
Now seas and skies their prospect only bound; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAT8iN8qnmNU
An empty space above, a floating field around. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAUtw115jOEU
But soon the heav'ns with shadows were o'erspread; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA8cDjPEzfiJ
A swelling cloud hung hov'ring o'er their head: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAYuxTLMIuij
Livid it look'd, the threat'ning of a storm: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAhmFPYInDYB
Then night and horror ocean's face deform. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAaXHXmMD9vk
The pilot, Palinurus, cried aloud: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANApPNSIrXhSQ
"What gusts of weather from that gath'ring cloud 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAYrFtFMXMPV
My thoughts presage! Ere yet the tempest roars, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANACoDCpa8kUo
Stand to your tackle, mates, and stretch your oars; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANApdCJkqvZ5Z
Contract your swelling sails, and luff to wind." 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAcuWgX7WUay
The frighted crew perform the task assign'd. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAi2uRSjSpTz
Then, to his fearless chief: "Not Heav'n," said he, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAQsqeIpbmXa
"Tho' Jove himself should promise Italy, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAldOUHKm6RO
Can stem the torrent of this raging sea. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA7H2wCpG7is
Mark how the shifting winds from west arise, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAPYQltGvvYz
And what collected night involves the skies! 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA47qcXfXXRW
Nor can our shaken vessels live at sea, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANArmktYhJ5VE
Much less against the tempest force their way. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAEai4sr43aK
'T is fate diverts our course, and fate we must obey. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA66Kdeck0WZ
Not far from hence, if I observ'd aright 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAjVsysi8cCN
The southing of the stars, and polar light, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAeMGowyeLwN
Sicilia lies, whose hospitable shores 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAQmpiMGmvXx
In safety we may reach with struggling oars." 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAzBPUzgpV4Z
Aeneas then replied: "Too sure I find 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA7ESFZSycNI
We strive in vain against the seas and wind: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA3xlNqzK6BK
Now shift your sails; what place can please me more 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAZmgJivlI79
Than what you promise, the Sicilian shore, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAKcrPdttAW6
Whose hallow'd earth Anchises' bones contains, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAVHQRuwJRrA
And where a prince of Trojan lineage reigns?" 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAIOjNkAJmDl
The course resolv'd, before the western wind 1163Please respect copyright.PENANApBpIdGyH9a
They scud amain, and make the port assign'd. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA0rjHLxpzSj
Meantime Acestes, from a lofty stand, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAEj2VIkpTeY
Beheld the fleet descending on the land; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAo5j8jEfzHj
And, not unmindful of his ancient race, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA0VgUe6NrrV
Down from the cliff he ran with eager pace, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA6Ir76ddxAj
And held the hero in a strict embrace. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAP0JLY9PsNP
Of a rough Libyan bear the spoils he wore, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAloMk342VaI
And either hand a pointed jav'lin bore. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAK3QPMXPk7b
His mother was a dame of Dardan blood; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAwSRhfQ8wsl
His sire Crinisus, a Sicilian flood. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAxOJNbZ9pQr
He welcomes his returning friends ashore 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAlMIhJiLOs3
With plenteous country cates and homely store. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAmstNqnbywL
Now, when the following morn had chas'd away 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAIEQPMEafe0
The flying stars, and light restor'd the day, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANASJG8Ru08hJ
Aeneas call'd the Trojan troops around, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAWBRsx1NgFy
And thus bespoke them from a rising ground: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAQy0qtUFbtg
"Offspring of heav'n, divine Dardanian race! 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAuCArATZEyY
The sun, revolving thro' th' ethereal space, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANABQgunS233M
The shining circle of the year has fill'd, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAfFzUNqjJVo
Since first this isle my father's ashes held: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANArWJzbJDmzM
And now the rising day renews the year; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAsN6QAsNkuj
A day for ever sad, for ever dear. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA5jCgpEouqa
This would I celebrate with annual games, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAK1Be6zgnkm
With gifts on altars pil'd, and holy flames, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA5yXE3qfYet
Tho' banish'd to Gaetulia's barren sands, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAHcZSdWgpNJ
Caught on the Grecian seas, or hostile lands: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAlEfTqFHXEv
But since this happy storm our fleet has driv'n 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA04sKyrvXbk
(Not, as I deem, without the will of Heav'n) 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAJHeqOeeGVZ
Upon these friendly shores and flow'ry plains, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA9zAVnh99SM
Which hide Anchises and his blest remains, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAq1zu28QRcx
Let us with joy perform his honors due, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAff3QbsKKzd
And pray for prosp'rous winds, our voyage to renew; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA1YERzaDMmI
Pray, that in towns and temples of our own, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAQxiWFJpYF5
The name of great Anchises may be known, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA8txc9p0tMv
And yearly games may spread the gods' renown. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAtYtIUN4kat
Our sports Acestes, of the Trojan race, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAPYm8Pb098w
With royal gifts ordain'd, is pleas'd to grace: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAX3u92LYjU1
Two steers on ev'ry ship the king bestows; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAi991GMhMVf
His gods and ours shall share your equal vows. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAoQcMSddLc6
Besides, if, nine days hence, the rosy morn 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAzvnihGNta2
Shall with unclouded light the skies adorn, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAU22zJ95d1r
That day with solemn sports I mean to grace: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAiHzlJfZyz4
Light galleys on the seas shall run a wat'ry race; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAm8FTLV27dH
Some shall in swiftness for the goal contend, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANASqzsPPhP9u
And others try the twanging bow to bend; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAOEnkr5Ov4W
The strong, with iron gauntlets arm'd, shall stand 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAA6nfnRO7ZF
Oppos'd in combat on the yellow sand. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANApOAjFEIyGq
Let all be present at the games prepar'd, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAkMjCNsdL29
And joyful victors wait the just reward. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA1kxEhQTt5W
But now assist the rites, with garlands crown'd." 1163Please respect copyright.PENANABOEyM4WaEG
He said, and first his brows with myrtle bound. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAgmYrhUHHLB
Then Helymus, by his example led, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAX11AuES4Jn
And old Acestes, each adorn'd his head; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAQXIIIzFoX0
Thus young Ascanius, with a sprightly grace, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAxPNY1k8jpi
His temples tied, and all the Trojan race. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA59UGwuBRCm
Aeneas then advanc'd amidst the train, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA17IfVExRqv
By thousands follow'd thro' the flow'ry plain, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAbpbYycquxS
To great Anchises' tomb; which when he found, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAfBYM7F6P4r
He pour'd to Bacchus, on the hallow'd ground, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAwVxEn4CRQU
Two bowls of sparkling wine, of milk two more, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA0zqKMz1tr3
And two (from offer'd bulls) of purple gore, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAmCvxmGRGOE
With roses then the sepulcher he strow'd 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAr6Cc0HKp8R
And thus his father's ghost bespoke aloud: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAoEU8GhP20c
"Hail, O ye holy manes! hail again, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA9BgwSqz9Ic
Paternal ashes, now review'd in vain! 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAiVx4x93Y2a
The gods permitted not, that you, with me, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAnjYoJNMWjk
Should reach the promis'd shores of Italy, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAW21gpmtjok
Or Tiber's flood, what flood soe'er it be." 1163Please respect copyright.PENANASlUknyS055
Scarce had he finish'd, when, with speckled pride, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAfToTqeDY12
A serpent from the tomb began to glide; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANALKUeH5h8Xp
His hugy bulk on sev'n high volumes roll'd; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANACIYsRwpfZ4
Blue was his breadth of back, but streak'd with scaly gold: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAk2ECG4Gq9Y
Thus riding on his curls, he seem'd to pass 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAqdPiHIDgGD
A rolling fire along, and singe the grass. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAn9Nyb3geFD
More various colors thro' his body run, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAh2bGi7FFta
Than Iris when her bow imbibes the sun. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAw2z67Ub6lM
Betwixt the rising altars, and around, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAjJe2Ao7Ylw
The sacred monster shot along the ground; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAWF31xa4TI2
With harmless play amidst the bowls he pass'd, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAStpzVST4DS
And with his lolling tongue assay'd the taste: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAWhpggzNtdv
Thus fed with holy food, the wondrous guest 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAgxXClMMEVB
Within the hollow tomb retir'd to rest. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAZybpqFEaW7
The pious prince, surpris'd at what he view'd, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA9TXoHY2B0x
The fun'ral honors with more zeal renew'd, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAqLIVBQapsZ
Doubtful if this place's genius were, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANANgs4EgtqVO
Or guardian of his father's sepulcher. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAphZs7CX6Tu
Five sheep, according to the rites, he slew; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAw41QfoOUKG
As many swine, and steers of sable hue; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAs9Gin6nYWZ
New gen'rous wine he from the goblets pour'd. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAAm3S9nKz9M
And call'd his father's ghost, from hell restor'd. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANATIfDuP9uv2
The glad attendants in long order come, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANApTvSMt1UCR
Off'ring their gifts at great Anchises' tomb: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA3LcAoVZhKh
Some add more oxen: some divide the spoil; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAwlQGcK0Puw
Some place the chargers on the grassy soil; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAHULl8eKxy4
Some blow the fires, and off entrails broil. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAXT0tgNsAkR
Now came the day desir'd. The skies were bright 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA4B8DA8n4lr
With rosy luster of the rising light: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAehAtPP2q1x
The bord'ring people, rous'd by sounding fame 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAtjbJtSE7fl
Of Trojan feasts and great Acestes' name, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANADcU96UFuVu
The crowded shore with acclamations fill, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAySeVYywMDN
Part to behold, and part to prove their skill. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAyFVcsrmI4E
And first the gifts in public view they place, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANACxyXLujlhR
Green laurel wreaths, and palm, the victors' grace: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAi2JVgWYhmg
Within the circle, arms and tripods lie, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAQE1umUHh8n
Ingots of gold and silver, heap'd on high, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAQLA5E5Ewnx
And vests embroider'd, of the Tyrian dye. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAK1rVST9rsM
The trumpet's clangor then the feast proclaims, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAJ2GiVwim7w
And all prepare for their appointed games. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAukmFGKtWor
Four galleys first, which equal rowers bear, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAzFNSq54Iwg
Advancing, in the wat'ry lists appear. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAgny2ZiDfVd
The speedy Dolphin, that outstrips the wind, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAD8jpHJOGI4
Bore Mnestheus, author of the Memmian kind: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA8LuqsHOE7W
Gyas the vast Chimaera's bulk commands, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAMbkp11ZSml
Which rising, like a tow'ring city stands; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAolCPTOSlTQ
Three Trojans tug at ev'ry lab'ring oar; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAOG8oQQYtkB
Three banks in three degrees the sailors bore; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAGG24mwRqfi
Beneath their sturdy strokes the billows roar. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAxJKEZnTYOY
Sergesthus, who began the Sergian race, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA9ogChfgthS
In the great Centaur took the leading place; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA7tsVGUnzuI
Cloanthus on the sea-green Scylla stood, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAHObqIbxFaH
From whom Cluentius draws his Trojan blood. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAeHF8IDaD3j
Far in the sea, against the foaming shore, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAAMugYJyy6j
There stands a rock: the raging billows roar 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAf9NzTNQ4Gf
Above his head in storms; but, when 't is clear, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAvQpEzNwROe
Uncurl their ridgy backs, and at his foot appear. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAUDidK3nUNw
In peace below the gentle waters run; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANATkBXFKrtmh
The cormorants above lie basking in the sun. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAHnIK4heNsL
On this the hero fix'd an oak in sight, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA5khDSGwPgs
The mark to guide the mariners aright. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAxViIOTad3R
To bear with this, the seamen stretch their oars; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA9Pze9nXkqG
Then round the rock they steer, and seek the former shores. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAcglWbzcit9
The lots decide their place. Above the rest, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA12OjANB5Ry
Each leader shining in his Tyrian vest; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANANTCTMqGVUw
The common crew with wreaths of poplar boughs 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA8NrIA21SmQ
Their temples crown, and shade their sweaty brows: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAFozfJh7bQP
Besmear'd with oil, their naked shoulders shine. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAaGuoItQswy
All take their seats, and wait the sounding sign: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAMpwpwRkc8j
They gripe their oars; and ev'ry panting breast 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA06iYKnHyCm
Is rais'd by turns with hope, by turns with fear depress'd. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAtU9ZZMQ2ZM
The clangor of the trumpet gives the sign; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAXzbnM9Sdpl
At once they start, advancing in a line: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANATYi5MoTGQ5
With shouts the sailors rend the starry skies; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAJNUPdzE9Pm
Lash'd with their oars, the smoky billows rise; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA30rvHY2ZKN
Sparkles the briny main, and the vex'd ocean fries. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAmXL5tOzdjI
Exact in time, with equal strokes they row: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAF99RxiTxN7
At once the brushing oars and brazen prow 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAdqJgUTsLCL
Dash up the sandy waves, and ope the depths below. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAk0yj6rCmRc
Not fiery coursers, in a chariot race, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAvo8yavKZrJ
Invade the field with half so swift a pace; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAgpIkuW9irY
Not the fierce driver with more fury lends 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA3VvvgfpW97
The sounding lash, and, ere the stroke descends, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAsXaq9j0j7v
Low to the wheels his pliant body bends. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAOvkW1Fs50v
The partial crowd their hopes and fears divide, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAQw4V5uAIMb
And aid with eager shouts the favor'd side. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAtarLNBy7oE
Cries, murmurs, clamors, with a mixing sound, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAhp6CaCueqP
From woods to woods, from hills to hills rebound. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAKY0j9rXoHe
Amidst the loud applauses of the shore, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAzmAdcRlMQX
Gyas outstripp'd the rest, and sprung before: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANApYkBY65L3m
Cloanthus, better mann'd, pursued him fast, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA7wJWuMmXjh
But his o'er-masted galley check'd his haste. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAy06p9xUvHW
The Centaur and the Dolphin brush the brine 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAUuVuBBkcC3
With equal oars, advancing in a line; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAvBGlYNBWwG
And now the mighty Centaur seems to lead, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAu4q8p5ta84
And now the speedy Dolphin gets ahead; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAyrrsy5weKt
Now board to board the rival vessels row, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAT9oXtBamBH
The billows lave the skies, and ocean groans below. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAcSBEwmREQ1
They reach'd the mark. Proud Gyas and his train 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAM7TT7kGzSX
In triumph rode, the victors of the main; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAQixFr3Lnbh
But, steering round, he charg'd his pilot stand 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAHNVDFCQhIl
More close to shore, and skim along the sand- 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAIsTgcWwB4l
"Let others bear to sea!" Menoetes heard; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAOs94tgUYvK
But secret shelves too cautiously he fear'd, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANABHUa1KaqdO
And, fearing, sought the deep; and still aloof he steer'd. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAvbFw8bQ3xI
With louder cries the captain call'd again: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAu8yBPb9suk
"Bear to the rocky shore, and shun the main." 1163Please respect copyright.PENANABC1q2mAe9U
He spoke, and, speaking, at his stern he saw 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAvXfFHM1e8h
The bold Cloanthus near the shelvings draw. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAO4txA1lJ9n
Betwixt the mark and him the Scylla stood, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA35fO1uoYSW
And in a closer compass plow'd the flood. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAQcIWLCX3fC
He pass'd the mark; and, wheeling, got before: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAI1bKHfpoCs
Gyas blasphem'd the gods, devoutly swore, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA2bddwgXW9I
Cried out for anger, and his hair he tore. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAtYUYCU2dBp
Mindless of others' lives (so high was grown 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAxMpydrE6vT
His rising rage) and careless of his own, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAjZHwTdnxFd
The trembling dotard to the deck he drew; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAPltFFpIQJF
Then hoisted up, and overboard he threw: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAdAEJsn55jt
This done, he seiz'd the helm; his fellows cheer'd, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAFs663HXFW7
Turn'd short upon the shelfs, and madly steer'd. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAxPh1bLde10
Hardly his head the plunging pilot rears, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANACyfjngHnzb
Clogg'd with his clothes, and cumber'd with his years: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAmNN3W42tlP
Now dropping wet, he climbs the cliff with pain. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAAZzzIfOk7V
The crowd, that saw him fall and float again, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAYL2GAkAGgp
Shout from the distant shore; and loudly laugh'd, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAjhhxsxnZXy
To see his heaving breast disgorge the briny draught. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAOhOqvQ8vUM
The following Centaur, and the Dolphin's crew, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAMVCjSOdMwR
Their vanish'd hopes of victory renew; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAujccqd4JKs
While Gyas lags, they kindle in the race, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANASPWKfGaYoa
To reach the mark. Sergesthus takes the place; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAUxQfJKur3O
Mnestheus pursues; and while around they wind, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANArvW1gv3ki2
Comes up, not half his galley's length behind; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAI8VXMudMt1
Then, on the deck, amidst his mates appear'd, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAVHhuZ3t0IK
And thus their drooping courage he cheer'd: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA3IZnjCibh7
"My friends, and Hector's followers heretofore, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA2MUXSf4NyR
Exert your vigor; tug the lab'ring oar; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAf8uD0pOk6Y
Stretch to your strokes, my still unconquer'd crew, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANASTRduGUB1O
Whom from the flaming walls of Troy I drew. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAdnKgsQFNpk
In this, our common int'rest, let me find 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA6G5smyyZju
That strength of hand, that courage of the mind, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAslLDNFjdJR
As when you stemm'd the strong Malean flood, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA0ZCP3owxUa
And o'er the Syrtes' broken billows row'd. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAc3xlAKGCFq
I seek not now the foremost palm to gain; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANARwakhSkB8e
Tho' yet- but, ah! that haughty wish is vain! 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAtEhY7Wkkk4
Let those enjoy it whom the gods ordain. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAhZqKyoMrCw
But to be last, the lags of all the race!- 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAlMvgP2xPmC
Redeem yourselves and me from that disgrace." 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAG1fVVJWGGv
Now, one and all, they tug amain; they row 1163Please respect copyright.PENANApXlq547vZG
At the full stretch, and shake the brazen prow. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAKtMJvgRzkj
The sea beneath 'em sinks; their lab'ring sides 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAqCNJvoPU2r
Are swell'd, and sweat runs gutt'ring down in tides. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANApQSKOq5MEu
Chance aids their daring with unhop'd success; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA9KEtUXxMZ2
Sergesthus, eager with his beak to press 1163Please respect copyright.PENANABuidm7AlB0
Betwixt the rival galley and the rock, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAmbkha0Zso4
Shuts up th' unwieldly Centaur in the lock. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAQmV1svpWmZ
The vessel struck; and, with the dreadful shock, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAYq1Ux49Sgk
Her oars she shiver'd, and her head she broke. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAIF0u8mgwpI
The trembling rowers from their banks arise, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAUVOm0nZwAd
And, anxious for themselves, renounce the prize. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAmA7o0RnEsA
With iron poles they heave her off the shores, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANALxwmhrCpiX
And gather from the sea their floating oars. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAM8XkwZifL2
The crew of Mnestheus, with elated minds, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANArknvbu2V2e
Urge their success, and call the willing winds; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAnQc63c3vnk
Then ply their oars, and cut their liquid way 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAntQm9RSsZh
In larger compass on the roomy sea. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAqTSJiIbcEl
As, when the dove her rocky hold forsakes, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAqHUuyZGvVF
Rous'd in a fright, her sounding wings she shakes; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAY7CfTWpoiC
The cavern rings with clatt'ring; out she flies, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAXbmmBanKr5
And leaves her callow care, and cleaves the skies: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAsvVFqLPLaS
At first she flutters; but at length she springs 1163Please respect copyright.PENANATfA5sZtMK8
To smoother flight, and shoots upon her wings: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAEHnhIZqxMP
So Mnestheus in the Dolphin cuts the sea; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAZyE79ZfgrT
And, flying with a force, that force assists his way. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANACiV8oCmuMT
Sergesthus in the Centaur soon he pass'd, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAPUuNSoG3yD
Wedg'd in the rocky shoals, and sticking fast. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAzLrHsqiWOC
In vain the victor he with cries implores, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAW6XE6q7ARp
And practices to row with shatter'd oars. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAudBgOspzUf
Then Mnestheus bears with Gyas, and outflies: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAnuUCx0JCyL
The ship, without a pilot, yields the prize. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANADjzoUOCM2h
Unvanquish'd Scylla now alone remains; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAoO2KiXP9H9
Her he pursues, and all his vigor strains. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAbKo37UxAZY
Shouts from the fav'ring multitude arise; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANATWLFSjIJbP
Applauding Echo to the shouts replies; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAWWx3xc4OLf
Shouts, wishes, and applause run rattling thro' the skies. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAkRCPnI2EY3
These clamors with disdain the Scylla heard, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAHa063Kvtxw
Much grudg'd the praise, but more the robb'd reward: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA9ZN0Pcq2ex
Resolv'd to hold their own, they mend their pace, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANATZEqyBqQi4
All obstinate to die, or gain the race. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA7vzjIOsZ5x
Rais'd with success, the Dolphin swiftly ran; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAnUbDCQrUXx
For they can conquer, who believe they can. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAybesQJxL6H
Both urge their oars, and fortune both supplies, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAf6d4u98rrC
And both perhaps had shar'd an equal prize; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAw4DAcuZYM0
When to the seas Cloanthus holds his hands, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA9fVNv8PjBo
And succor from the wat'ry pow'rs demands: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA0Mj3iTLhQ6
"Gods of the liquid realms, on which I row! 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAn6oqlqj7zk
If, giv'n by you, the laurel bind my brow, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAVSkoj2GOPo
Assist to make me guilty of my vow! 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAtWuNLveCzz
A snow-white bull shall on your shore be slain; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAhrTcdqTtDI
His offer'd entrails cast into the main, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA1cekoeglPb
And ruddy wine, from golden goblets thrown, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA3LQhYDCN3b
Your grateful gift and my return shall own." 1163Please respect copyright.PENANALWfTj4BNoA
The choir of nymphs, and Phorcus, from below, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANANJEHPJfLWF
With virgin Panopea, heard his vow; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAV5z9LnW2rt
And old Portunus, with his breadth of hand, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAfISyqDkY52
Push'd on, and sped the galley to the land. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAoZUQ4d2RB4
Swift as a shaft, or winged wind, she flies, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAREXb9pZOVz
And, darting to the port, obtains the prize. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAhrCQVQ9ofS
The herald summons all, and then proclaims 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAR3qafq9VmW
Cloanthus conqu'ror of the naval games. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAGcQMD6UfmA
The prince with laurel crowns the victor's head, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAtsMD0wbeqs
And three fat steers are to his vessel led, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAPp7HnGbSBw
The ship's reward; with gen'rous wine beside, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAhXdjXF6JRU
And sums of silver, which the crew divide. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAuiXZKCVG3F
The leaders are distinguish'd from the rest; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAQGATgMsBSE
The victor honor'd with a nobler vest, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANABMXbNbtQPO
Where gold and purple strive in equal rows, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA0yh4Gly80O
And needlework its happy cost bestows. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANApZg9P8mpgO
There Ganymede is wrought with living art, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAgc5gN9Pgif
Chasing thro' Ida's groves the trembling hart: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA4AnI0Vk5kA
Breathless he seems, yet eager to pursue; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAIWCooN8vV3
When from aloft descends, in open view, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAFXGqsLJKMf
The bird of Jove, and, sousing on his prey, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANABpZUx9gQTj
With crooked talons bears the boy away. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAS7ZgyPCPTk
In vain, with lifted hands and gazing eyes, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAbB2ALkmKdN
His guards behold him soaring thro' the skies, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAh2me3cXr7a
And dogs pursue his flight with imitated cries. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANANRLr0dcYkn
Mnestheus the second victor was declar'd; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA4d4q9HYJwE
And, summon'd there, the second prize he shard. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAbnHmQCyFg1
A coat of mail, brave Demoleus bore, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAVfUbZckHyP
More brave Aeneas from his shoulders tore, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAgkD1XKR4l6
In single combat on the Trojan shore: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANArqGssi7d6Z
This was ordain'd for Mnestheus to possess; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAOcIx1BTH7x
In war for his defense, for ornament in peace. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAYS3yNSAXan
Rich was the gift, and glorious to behold, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAnHS3kmWbqt
But yet so pond'rous with its plates of gold, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAzzzwWJ4Ujq
That scarce two servants could the weight sustain; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAu3F9n3Zhe0
Yet, loaded thus, Demoleus o'er the plain 1163Please respect copyright.PENANADjZYgdlJ9F
Pursued and lightly seiz'd the Trojan train. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAt13MKH8sDP
The third, succeeding to the last reward, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA8qOYYFT6TA
Two goodly bowls of massy silver shar'd, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAKxdYMbvfEg
With figures prominent, and richly wrought, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAJB01GryHTl
And two brass caldrons from Dodona brought. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAybVnceVbhb
Thus all, rewarded by the hero's hands, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAeYuMFySUQq
Their conqu'ring temples bound with purple bands; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA6nIooMwcUf
And now Sergesthus, clearing from the rock, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANACleKqodYF1
Brought back his galley shatter'd with the shock. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAqAFX4DwDF2
Forlorn she look'd, without an aiding oar, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAjJaRQBCiOL
And, houted by the vulgar, made to shore. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAk4iEAIof7T
As when a snake, surpris'd upon the road, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAof8KRfqxR0
Is crush'd athwart her body by the load 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAJkpLoTOa0p
Of heavy wheels; or with a mortal wound 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA29zq5mGbDE
Her belly bruis'd, and trodden to the ground: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAsvBbFSTiWv
In vain, with loosen'd curls, she crawls along; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAoYSRmX7BGY
Yet, fierce above, she brandishes her tongue; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAf7M5fwUKSI
Glares with her eyes, and bristles with her scales; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANACnp0wqH3QY
But, groveling in the dust, her parts unsound she trails: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAZPuadv2ihK
So slowly to the port the Centaur tends, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAjwjKlaG70b
But, what she wants in oars, with sails amends. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANABk2zLS0l1V
Yet, for his galley sav'd, the grateful prince 1163Please respect copyright.PENANArMXX5kJTlv
Is pleas'd th' unhappy chief to recompense. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA3ZQOIUSnsZ
Pholoe, the Cretan slave, rewards his care, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAjEzMUxOnEI
Beauteous herself, with lovely twins as fair. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAOVAOdICeqe
From thence his way the Trojan hero bent 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA6zySL6HTu6
Into the neighb'ring plain, with mountains pent, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAJ6OZcuVMw5
Whose sides were shaded with surrounding wood. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAm6vDLmDJYj
Full in the midst of this fair valley stood 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAG89xSF5FKO
A native theater, which, rising slow 1163Please respect copyright.PENANABXvna9G20a
By just degrees, o'erlook'd the ground below. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANADCXL1VQuZf
High on a sylvan throne the leader sate; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAs4fx74CSc5
A num'rous train attend in solemn state. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANARpK6fjriAO
Here those that in the rapid course delight, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANANLpFWckgiK
Desire of honor and the prize invite. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAehiVLEcOLA
The rival runners without order stand; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAdK6E3iXdyC
The Trojans mix'd with the Sicilian band. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAeqabdvAFzk
First Nisus, with Euryalus, appears; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA2lTXMExVgw
Euryalus a boy of blooming years, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAqHQkfI1NuT
With sprightly grace and equal beauty crown'd; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAhbTtrahHD4
Nisus, for friendship to the youth renown'd. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAjCMrcxzFgI
Diores next, of Priam's royal race, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAxWeuTnUvbs
Then Salius joined with Patron, took their place; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAT6QEhKf2aq
(But Patron in Arcadia had his birth, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANATWJ85t7vgl
And Salius his from Arcananian earth;) 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAt3JrIrKFGe
Then two Sicilian youths- the names of these, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAz4QdYPCRq7
Swift Helymus, and lovely Panopes: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAuUZnjo49xL
Both jolly huntsmen, both in forest bred, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAHZe149xTA8
And owning old Acestes for their head; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA0Wch6Lw5oK
With sev'ral others of ignobler name, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAm7EoCjuC1l
Whom time has not deliver'd o'er to fame. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAcuZQr1h7Qh
To these the hero thus his thoughts explain'd, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAq4ACzO71Vv
In words which gen'ral approbation gain'd: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAaKKcTdSOWW
"One common largess is for all design'd, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANADWU4ciofJH
(The vanquish'd and the victor shall be join'd,) 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAfwFJAGHJyE
Two darts of polish'd steel and Gnosian wood, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAxjp4223U0Z
A silver-studded ax, alike bestow'd. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAgxVgKrMhsC
The foremost three have olive wreaths decreed: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAMKjO5U69BD
The first of these obtains a stately steed, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAdZsZMJ4YAn
Adorn'd with trappings; and the next in fame, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAZaFRv5OnaU
The quiver of an Amazonian dame, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAWFmYnETZja
With feather'd Thracian arrows well supplied: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAnPPmWXKioT
A golden belt shall gird his manly side, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA9fhCbRzX91
Which with a sparkling diamond shall be tied. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA5cjJGsRmGE
The third this Grecian helmet shall content." 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAup11PiBgn8
He said. To their appointed base they went; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA6m581r93p6
With beating hearts th' expected sign receive, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA0m2AtLYZ2o
And, starting all at once, the barrier leave. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAMtWQdDD1hf
Spread out, as on the winged winds, they flew, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAhmk8NFokNZ
And seiz'd the distant goal with greedy view. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA492VnWDPuZ
Shot from the crowd, swift Nisus all o'erpass'd; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAGNTznPL4Tv
Nor storms, nor thunder, equal half his haste. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA1g1uY4Opr8
The next, but tho' the next, yet far disjoin'd, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAs5oVps0961
Came Salius, and Euryalus behind; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAtjBaqwT7gE
Then Helymus, whom young Diores plied, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA0GmSqa6Vzm
Step after step, and almost side by side, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAfoBjgXxP2s
His shoulders pressing; and, in longer space, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAkA7pgoqBgn
Had won, or left at least a dubious race. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAukMlWsKHr9
Now, spent, the goal they almost reach at last, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAqMGgDugr1S
When eager Nisus, hapless in his haste, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAobailujlj2
Slipp'd first, and, slipping, fell upon the plain, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAc8SMeXd8or
Soak'd with the blood of oxen newly slain. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANADElFVxWjbQ
The careless victor had not mark'd his way; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAQdQQc6Slz8
But, treading where the treach'rous puddle lay, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA8y0WaOXCRF
His heels flew up; and on the grassy floor 1163Please respect copyright.PENANASIMOpa267K
He fell, besmear'd with filth and holy gore. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAsjjKuTGHF1
Not mindless then, Euryalus, of thee, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAtkyHe3tm9b
Nor of the sacred bonds of amity, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANADtjiNRF5eK
He strove th' immediate rival's hope to cross, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAjhZ6DuaI9J
And caught the foot of Salius as he rose. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA8U01JhnklS
So Salius lay extended on the plain; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAOrFG58hBcY
Euryalus springs out, the prize to gain, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAVPwSTrfdAl
And leaves the crowd: applauding peals attend 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAlNkKUFD8DM
The victor to the goal, who vanquish'd by his friend. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAs10FzbJ1RL
Next Helymus; and then Diores came, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAGlqQAMO5aX
By two misfortunes made the third in fame. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAQNPumEECWB
But Salius enters, and, exclaiming loud 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAI4yRqr32dB
For justice, deafens and disturbs the crowd; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA2hPWit74AO
Urges his cause may in the court be heard; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAeiklVEsiqe
And pleads the prize is wrongfully conferr'd. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAYPcjWnLQbZ
But favor for Euryalus appears; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA7FT145p6Un
His blooming beauty, with his tender tears, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAkGn4WjM29x
Had brib'd the judges for the promis'd prize. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAJlodRXj9Iv
Besides, Diores fills the court with cries, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAJk4uZkW8GA
Who vainly reaches at the last reward, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAdj36558b6H
If the first palm on Salius be conferr'd. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAESFg2tZfVh
Then thus the prince: "Let no disputes arise: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAzO7HZxHYD7
Where fortune plac'd it, I award the prize. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAhlm7dlCgNC
But fortune's errors give me leave to mend, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANALVKg5LkeHZ
At least to pity my deserving friend." 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAGeZCOlhWyQ
He said, and, from among the spoils, he draws 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAdQ2zDjD5s9
(Pond'rous with shaggy mane and golden paws) 1163Please respect copyright.PENANADZFE5cF5W2
A lion's hide: to Salius this he gives. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAmstzFvdiWs
Nisus with envy sees the gift, and grieves. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAppwDkdy6nQ
"If such rewards to vanquish'd men are due." 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA3xlt0ZTuEw
He said, "and falling is to rise by you, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAAE1fsE5lXC
What prize may Nisus from your bounty claim, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAUKjG32HMNU
Who merited the first rewards and fame? 1163Please respect copyright.PENANATypJCsGXAg
In falling, both an equal fortune tried; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAf6paegvAWv
Would fortune for my fall so well provide!" 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAEHkMqAjI2K
With this he pointed to his face, and show'd 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAcACuuZavJo
His hand and all his habit smear'd with blood. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA2TMbMVlrHy
Th' indulgent father of the people smil'd, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAtNwv7VaRLZ
And caus'd to be produc'd an ample shield, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAQyBR47lXZn
Of wondrous art, by Didymaon wrought, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA8qeQAvjTLN
Long since from Neptune's bars in triumph brought. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAt3B4Hv8WFi
This giv'n to Nisus, he divides the rest, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANARa1njizlCY
And equal justice in his gifts express'd. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAcGnJOzWDsW
The race thus ended, and rewards bestow'd, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAj5H8F1Nh5E
Once more the princes bespeaks th' attentive crowd: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAgACVOLnVy7
"If there he here whose dauntless courage dare 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAmz54GrVjNX
In gauntlet-fight, with limbs and body bare, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAGObgUKL9tu
His opposite sustain in open view, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAayH9H6d9tc
Stand forth the champion, and the games renew. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAtoiOVYS1ct
Two prizes I propose, and thus divide: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA4NgeIkDgTV
A bull with gilded horns, and fillets tied, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAYFt5euOF6B
Shall be the portion of the conqu'ring chief; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAuuFtDXUu16
A sword and helm shall cheer the loser's grief." 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAuSACdAzSmo
Then haughty Dares in the lists appears; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAcyrNKbcqXu
Stalking he strides, his head erected bears: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAqFe1wJrLS3
His nervous arms the weighty gauntlet wield, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA3fFnGl1AK7
And loud applauses echo thro' the field. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAICRPwnftW6
Dares alone in combat us'd to stand 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA5UMGa4MXdM
The match of mighty Paris, hand to hand; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAmTEQKt8FnH
The same, at Hector's fun'rals, undertook 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAJSlNph8Cjr
Gigantic Butes, of th' Amycian stock, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAUpTi7l82n8
And, by the stroke of his resistless hand, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAXGFADRul3d
Stretch'd the vast bulk upon the yellow sand. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAmvHtDQd00D
Such Dares was; and such he strode along, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANARrUvFjDjtB
And drew the wonder of the gazing throng. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAWUDftqrcaJ
His brawny back and ample breast he shows, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANASKu5F3c3vP
His lifted arms around his head he throws, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA9czvTKn4Cb
And deals in whistling air his empty blows. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAacUHM6GqRY
His match is sought; but, thro' the trembling band, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAm0cApakQYo
Not one dares answer to the proud demand. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAqBV0ei6khJ
Presuming of his force, with sparkling eyes 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAkz13XCikju
Already he devours the promis'd prize. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAj4BCzZax3K
He claims the bull with awless insolence, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAga0TdBGemd
And having seiz'd his horns, accosts the prince: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANArfJZ9pwefn
"If none my matchless valor dares oppose, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAV9mifuhHs3
How long shall Dares wait his dastard foes? 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA4wcRinmrp8
Permit me, chief, permit without delay, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAqutgLwbtxn
To lead this uncontended gift away." 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA7h1iCw8Nau
The crowd assents, and with redoubled cries 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAgoTBw1mFRK
For the proud challenger demands the prize. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA9gC2o4TfUw
Acestes, fir'd with just disdain, to see 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAToCt83GokS
The palm usurp'd without a victory, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAbjTCHzFJMO
Reproach'd Entellus thus, who sate beside, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAeMSmTG5NlA
And heard and saw, unmov'd, the Trojan's pride: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA9AmRyHPWsW
"Once, but in vain, a champion of renown, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANARc5VfNCFKh
So tamely can you bear the ravish'd crown, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANATaSj1Wp8Zm
A prize in triumph borne before your sight, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAso7J40qs8k
And shun, for fear, the danger of the fight? 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA8nA6MDM0no
Where is our Eryx now, the boasted name, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAQHwrZSbkAk
The god who taught your thund'ring arm the game? 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAPQUAPBRtNe
Where now your baffled honor? Where the spoil 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA7EMTLYBRK4
That fill'd your house, and fame that fill'd our isle?" 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA6oTMEyIncW
Entellus, thus: "My soul is still the same, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAQaKUgNZYGE
Unmov'd with fear, and mov'd with martial fame; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA1a2MxQvt3F
But my chill blood is curdled in my veins, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAw9owIummo8
And scarce the shadow of a man remains. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAfXr0Fl00nb
O could I turn to that fair prime again, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAbyrGucE9pa
That prime of which this boaster is so vain, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA0nPJtyeei0
The brave, who this decrepid age defies, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA1Yo9dk6YdM
Should feel my force, without the promis'd prize." 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAwaclQCTlJJ
He said; and, rising at the word, he threw 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA6oPSrpkyCv
Two pond'rous gauntlets down in open view; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAKxbK6KuZIc
Gauntlets which Eryx wont in fight to wield, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAkI2Jy1LKgJ
And sheathe his hands with in the listed field. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAn4vsm8GqnX
With fear and wonder seiz'd, the crowd beholds 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAJfPO22151M
The gloves of death, with sev'n distinguish'd folds 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAARbQw5QACd
Of tough bull hides; the space within is spread 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAvGw3i8RbX0
With iron, or with loads of heavy lead: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAgZqMstyaqR
Dares himself was daunted at the sight, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAiwEfU5qlTm
Renounc'd his challenge, and refus'd to fight. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANANjFU0o6LmJ
Astonish'd at their weight, the hero stands, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAc3bgqXafIo
And pois'd the pond'rous engines in his hands. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAojYlrXVYfo
"What had your wonder," said Entellus, "been, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA0FPoHMFZBF
Had you the gauntlets of Alcides seen, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAhjLKtDP3LF
Or view'd the stern debate on this unhappy green! 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5ZpVdpfZD
These which I bear your brother Eryx bore, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA2u5vVKjaGc
Still mark'd with batter'd brains and mingled gore. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA7JZkfLKjDr
With these he long sustain'd th' Herculean arm; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA7v7n3HGDIg
And these I wielded while my blood was warm, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAF6tMp38vlJ
This languish'd frame while better spirits fed, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAIrWmqbFoiB
Ere age unstrung my nerves, or time o'ersnow'd my head. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA70iadIrfr0
But if the challenger these arms refuse, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANApb9nwEORjI
And cannot wield their weight, or dare not use; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAFHJnTI3Ebz
If great Aeneas and Acestes join 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAOOtqVj2Ezx
In his request, these gauntlets I resign; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAeJgzXRfOg5
Let us with equal arms perform the fight, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAgS3nOeGMSb
And let him leave to fear, since I resign my right." 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAaCC9DcjPrA
This said, Entellus for the strife prepares; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAupREBcYzOL
Stripp'd of his quilted coat, his body bares; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAcTLgN5JhWa
Compos'd of mighty bones and brawn he stands, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANANINfVRJyLc
A goodly tow'ring object on the sands. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAPOhOaJkvZj
Then just Aeneas equal arms supplied, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAnmrHoS8HCd
Which round their shoulders to their wrists they tied. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAAMucCEqlMu
Both on the tiptoe stand, at full extent, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAIh9M7OR1yT
Their arms aloft, their bodies inly bent; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANATBy9od7n9n
Their heads from aiming blows they bear afar; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA0kltcFE6ot
With clashing gauntlets then provoke the war. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA5rCXoQBA9Y
One on his youth and pliant limbs relies; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAEWMTjoHbEk
One on his sinews and his giant size. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAZ9jDbJFnee
The last is stiff with age, his motion slow; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAxDg4gPnvQA
He heaves for breath, he staggers to and fro, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAT5jMs3X7O0
And clouds of issuing smoke his nostrils loudly blow. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAkcSvuAwx7F
Yet equal in success, they ward, they strike; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAW2qb6MT1A4
Their ways are diff'rent, but their art alike. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAXWCgtNh30m
Before, behind, the blows are dealt; around 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAn3gbDcM8gq
Their hollow sides the rattling thumps resound. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAhke5pCAw8s
A storm of strokes, well meant, with fury flies, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANARpPEypCeYO
And errs about their temples, ears, and eyes. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAYwcFuL2nmq
Nor always errs; for oft the gauntlet draws 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA3ULa8FndNd
A sweeping stroke along the crackling jaws. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAIdUBgFuPP7
Heavy with age, Entellus stands his ground, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAc2k4yrkC6S
But with his warping body wards the wound. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAH62dpRx2jX
His hand and watchful eye keep even pace; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANADQKRDQ9rfU
While Dares traverses and shifts his place, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA5wZSAQuMHb
And, like a captain who beleaguers round 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAsNdX3Q9V6P
Some strong-built castle on a rising ground, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAYh80mPMrT9
Views all th' approaches with observing eyes: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAs8ABZVNIob
This and that other part in vain he tries, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAgdrKWjysGx
And more on industry than force relies. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAY70zSC3rvx
With hands on high, Entellus threats the foe; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAHDzO0qTGZJ
But Dares watch'd the motion from below, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAAVJ4ztobeE
And slipp'd aside, and shunn'd the long descending blow. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANATySi7e05dv
Entellus wastes his forces on the wind, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAEVRljYGN1d
And, thus deluded of the stroke design'd, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAJTE8BnA8pc
Headlong and heavy fell; his ample breast 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAfdDbHw9Rjk
And weighty limbs his ancient mother press'd. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAbM1v8NIP8Q
So falls a hollow pine, that long had stood 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAH2W0d1wzpZ
On Ida's height, or Erymanthus' wood, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAAYHm5fF913
Torn from the roots. The diff'ring nations rise, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAKL9joCqXqQ
And shouts and mingled murmurs rend the skies, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANApWEMJ5erN2
Acestus runs with eager haste, to raise 1163Please respect copyright.PENANASz9Ns8a7HM
The fall'n companion of his youthful days. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAX4fatPpVQN
Dauntless he rose, and to the fight return'd; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAcx4ku0PIO6
With shame his glowing cheeks, his eyes with fury burn'd. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAr3Gbk7oA3B
Disdain and conscious virtue fir'd his breast, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAjFSeo0UQxe
And with redoubled force his foe he press'd. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANASFrQPjn94Z
He lays on load with either hand, amain, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANABUnA9Hym44
And headlong drives the Trojan o'er the plain; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAHeCcsQqgeH
Nor stops, nor stays; nor rest nor breath allows; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAChi4ziIIN3
But storms of strokes descend about his brows, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANALbc8aIVi3h
A rattling tempest, and a hail of blows. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA33KDbYL65e
But now the prince, who saw the wild increase 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA1k4BELrry1
Of wounds, commands the combatants to cease, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAyh8oc2hLeA
And bounds Entellus' wrath, and bids the peace. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAvB6ebUAByg
First to the Trojan, spent with toil, he came, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAxYP8SUsxZ6
And sooth'd his sorrow for the suffer'd shame. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAu7TZpVKHmt
"What fury seiz'd my friend? The gods," said he, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANANPLrUY5V95
"To him propitious, and averse to thee, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAz5PvzNWSPF
Have giv'n his arm superior force to thine. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAgWNKVAqLIz
'T is madness to contend with strength divine." 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA9XvUDgrYTS
The gauntlet fight thus ended, from the shore 1163Please respect copyright.PENANABHtuscjev4
His faithful friends unhappy Dares bore: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAU1Mn7P7yIL
His mouth and nostrils pour'd a purple flood, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA1KdCoX8027
And pounded teeth came rushing with his blood. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAUT0DIpHEte
Faintly he stagger'd thro' the hissing throng, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAudjNh3ubiV
And hung his head, and trail'd his legs along. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAs2JhmUjZ6o
The sword and casque are carried by his train; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAAd9OCIDXqG
But with his foe the palm and ox remain. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAITPeAQZqmp
The champion, then, before Aeneas came, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAuwFRLHxXOT
Proud of his prize, but prouder of his fame: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAjOuVhuqSah
"O goddess-born, and you, Dardanian host, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANABrqjJiwgBG
Mark with attention, and forgive my boast; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANADCDfYbQOIF
Learn what I was, by what remains; and know 1163Please respect copyright.PENANASJW1vyRiHI
From what impending fate you sav'd my foe." 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAEjJ6sZomJn
Sternly he spoke, and then confronts the bull; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANADaFinL6FnY
And, on his ample forehead aiming full, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAt54jj8z6sX
The deadly stroke, descending, pierc'd the skull. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANArCOKb40XtY
Down drops the beast, nor needs a second wound, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAfKMLGhF9gT
But sprawls in pangs of death, and spurns the ground. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAmsb6fS71Yn
Then, thus: "In Dares' stead I offer this. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANADJMkLAlina
Eryx, accept a nobler sacrifice; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAXR2Z3I66bd
Take the last gift my wither'd arms can yield: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAjlAmmHorTY
Thy gauntlets I resign, and here renounce the field." 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA3st57oSdX4
This done, Aeneas orders, for the close, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANArBQCShySeV
The strife of archers with contending bows. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAhIqagT9Ysf
The mast Sergesthus' shatter'd galley bore 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAVgRmP4TzOx
With his own hands he raises on the shore. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAVzIzcZpjQz
A flutt'ring dove upon the top they tie, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANARPbz7dFNZG
The living mark at which their arrows fly. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAq2fLu2T1d1
The rival archers in a line advance, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAyFs7QrNiUb
Their turn of shooting to receive from chance. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAGbuepJ6kxh
A helmet holds their names; the lots are drawn: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAW3y9l25JKF
On the first scroll was read Hippocoon. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANASit8EYCf6P
The people shout. Upon the next was found 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAYwF4CS8beK
Young Mnestheus, late with naval honors crown'd. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANATUi8PoS1uP
The third contain'd Eurytion's noble name, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAOXp0pv4E7g
Thy brother, Pandarus, and next in fame, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANATUFB63V4Ep
Whom Pallas urg'd the treaty to confound, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANABvnS4KJC7Y
And send among the Greeks a feather'd wound. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAC5sbttGTdj
Acestes in the bottom last remain'd, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAQxyWkUiL8U
Whom not his age from youthful sports restrain'd. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAf4QCr3hEoL
Soon all with vigor bend their trusty bows, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAhZxFtofED7
And from the quiver each his arrow chose. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAljWLAibGrE
Hippocoon's was the first: with forceful sway 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA8seulhzJTo
It flew, and, whizzing, cut the liquid way. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAcKV5huxRnq
Fix'd in the mast the feather'd weapon stands: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAB62k6PESX2
The fearful pigeon flutters in her bands, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA7lBDXlJXM4
And the tree trembled, and the shouting cries 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAdfcR6CI3oa
Of the pleas'd people rend the vaulted skies. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA0RVUdYDPKJ
Then Mnestheus to the head his arrow drove, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA7uyl1JJsjU
With lifted eyes, and took his aim above, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANATToLt5IfWc
But made a glancing shot, and missed the dove; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAtC6uOoxflh
Yet miss'd so narrow, that he cut the cord 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA2WQMPUBmsb
Which fasten'd by the foot the flitting bird. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANALiUtWPuqSz
The captive thus releas'd, away she flies, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAkXlXG2uZCa
And beats with clapping wings the yielding skies. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAuMBodx08Dw
His bow already bent, Eurytion stood; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAFZGxwlVjbs
And, having first invok'd his brother god, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAwAKMz2LoE2
His winged shaft with eager haste he sped. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAW4fZVaGXn1
The fatal message reach'd her as she fled: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAeWSPVAbEgz
She leaves her life aloft; she strikes the ground, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAmWDwoVJw3b
And renders back the weapon in the wound. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAXTLVKy3hMC
Acestes, grudging at his lot, remains, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAsEolAn33dh
Without a prize to gratify his pains. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAiuFtMDEf0S
Yet, shooting upward, sends his shaft, to show 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAP34fpRYxGH
An archer's art, and boast his twanging bow. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA8k5YvviL8f
The feather'd arrow gave a dire portent, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAO0Xv028eVZ
And latter augurs judge from this event. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA4pSBadP6fO
Chaf'd by the speed, it fir'd; and, as it flew, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANASD8NVAHFWr
A trail of following flames ascending drew: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA7pdkWLBNiU
Kindling they mount, and mark the shiny way; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAcRc9QXRac6
Across the skies as falling meteors play, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANATjMyquVdQi
And vanish into wind, or in a blaze decay. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANApv3Vs0L7a5
The Trojans and Sicilians wildly stare, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAlHtlE4OIdI
And, trembling, turn their wonder into pray'r. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA9DU0TDJqI2
The Dardan prince put on a smiling face, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANATrvargSxW9
And strain'd Acestes with a close embrace; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAZ80x3Xjfvb
Then, hon'ring him with gifts above the rest, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAYI1xdPJ4dl
Turn'd the bad omen, nor his fears confess'd. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAaLi3QLhVoE
"The gods," said he, "this miracle have wrought, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANADUCNQchiJZ
And order'd you the prize without the lot. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAI9T6atH1Th
Accept this goblet, rough with figur'd gold, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAyDrN8NM5vI
Which Thracian Cisseus gave my sire of old: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAoXcv2Nt6N1
This pledge of ancient amity receive, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAWO3l3LGiwN
Which to my second sire I justly give." 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAntZqtt0cXP
He said, and, with the trumpets' cheerful sound, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAe9czQisvbf
Proclaim'd him victor, and with laurel-crown'd. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA2Hcvu7wZD6
Nor good Eurytion envied him the prize, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAKSemSJ2M1P
Tho' he transfix'd the pigeon in the skies. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAuwjEKb7HKA
Who cut the line, with second gifts was grac'd; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAYYiNaSMfKU
The third was his whose arrow pierc'd the mast. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAG3DgkcYuqf
The chief, before the games were wholly done, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAcddytpPSJW
Call'd Periphantes, tutor to his son, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAZAYCnl1EoK
And whisper'd thus: "With speed Ascanius find; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANATdB4mJtAAk
And, if his childish troop be ready join'd, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANADLWkjUBEwQ
On horseback let him grace his grandsire's day, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAtglSZqCBLN
And lead his equals arm'd in just array." 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA1gWjKvxUck
He said; and, calling out, the cirque he clears. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAQ8GEmVQXHw
The crowd withdrawn, an open plain appears. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAWuYPpuyHOG
And now the noble youths, of form divine, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAaK8UkMQtjC
Advance before their fathers, in a line; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAsdEVQKH5CW
The riders grace the steeds; the steeds with glory shine. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAd2hj45YEGE
Thus marching on in military pride, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAn4427RZfoG
Shouts of applause resound from side to side. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAAmOiEBrsrk
Their casques adorn'd with laurel wreaths they wear, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAqhyCKOLYte
Each brandishing aloft a cornel spear. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAA0stFDKyV2
Some at their backs their gilded quivers bore; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAZDKeTbraxD
Their chains of burnish'd gold hung down before. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAshvvN3Gsz1
Three graceful troops they form'd upon the green; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAlwx5ff7u0u
Three graceful leaders at their head were seen; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAeI5K77Dx9S
Twelve follow'd ev'ry chief, and left a space between. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANACZn8mRIZRD
The first young Priam led; a lovely boy, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAlilyJIjOlU
Whose grandsire was th' unhappy king of Troy; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAcBg2jWamXG
His race in after times was known to fame, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAzq2xfuzHsl
New honors adding to the Latian name; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAd0A6Wrwbqi
And well the royal boy his Thracian steed became. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAcyJ83mO8et
White were the fetlocks of his feet before, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANABJpZVi0KLR
And on his front a snowy star he bore. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANApW2b3GkCXr
Then beauteous Atys, with Iulus bred, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAGy4FPPl30W
Of equal age, the second squadron led. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAALZeKEZ9ax
The last in order, but the first in place, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAyMkCwDPMrn
First in the lovely features of his face, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAQOy5ZvHnJ8
Rode fair Ascanius on a fiery steed, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAYttd8QBOqj
Queen Dido's gift, and of the Tyrian breed. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA6WAROSm9ny
Sure coursers for the rest the king ordains, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANANLYLC6xOS9
With golden bits adorn'd, and purple reins. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAablNOXvLe5
The pleas'd spectators peals of shouts renew, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAgzjJy7xXQ4
And all the parents in the children view; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA7ZM6nyhY4i
Their make, their motions, and their sprightly grace, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAjuqD33i6kB
And hopes and fears alternate in their face. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAGUFLxqs88c
Th' unfledg'd commanders and their martial train 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAFkR7qGC0uH
First make the circuit of the sandy plain 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAkzSQ3CpBlO
Around their sires, and, at th' appointed sign, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAgXFExLtlQE
Drawn up in beauteous order, form a line. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAs28MQZUt1d
The second signal sounds, the troop divides 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAYqBpxR71Og
In three distinguish'd parts, with three distinguish'd guides 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAJaUbb3ofBB
Again they close, and once again disjoin; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA7v9KrgWLLK
In troop to troop oppos'd, and line to line. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAx7nBR59gx4
They meet; they wheel; they throw their darts afar 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAdbb2CgzIFV
With harmless rage and well-dissembled war. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA6IhP7Ja45j
Then in a round the mingled bodies run: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANANEnKBgQR7l
Flying they follow, and pursuing shun; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANASmW8flaQ5r
Broken, they break; and, rallying, they renew 1163Please respect copyright.PENANArWZfGrg7Yp
In other forms the military shew. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANABv79Pkb0ot
At last, in order, undiscern'd they join, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAfCFIPtsGbb
And march together in a friendly line. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANARgFAN5DCdW
And, as the Cretan labyrinth of old, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAnJC0vVFmdr
With wand'ring ways and many a winding fold, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAptl9CaWn5I
Involv'd the weary feet, without redress, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA8gB8BarOPZ
In a round error, which denied recess; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAaOOGJkHjqI
So fought the Trojan boys in warlike play, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAQIP5yXVHpB
Turn'd and return'd, and still a diff'rent way. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAvVDHqnZzKr
Thus dolphins in the deep each other chase 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAxbmqyJdjjg
In circles, when they swim around the wat'ry race. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAxbOa4Kqwtv
This game, these carousels, Ascanius taught; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA65WSGmpO9M
And, building Alba, to the Latins brought; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAy7G5fhQmli
Shew'd what he learn'd: the Latin sires impart 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAvV8ouulYbq
To their succeeding sons the graceful art; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAnAADskHeCj
From these imperial Rome receiv'd the game, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAxwEw1GlMA9
Which Troy, the youths the Trojan troop, they name. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA9fK2wSLzyU
Thus far the sacred sports they celebrate: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAJwY5UofjY1
But Fortune soon resum'd her ancient hate; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAQ4T8LMTQom
For, while they pay the dead his annual dues, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANALXJNhCZ4OE
Those envied rites Saturnian Juno views; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAFztxcN7ynp
And sends the goddess of the various bow, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANACsb0129MdE
To try new methods of revenge below; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAEDBAlRub0B
Supplies the winds to wing her airy way, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANABkCU0NqiF2
Where in the port secure the navy lay. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAV4wuKZ241V
Swiftly fair Iris down her arch descends, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAD00HwPsO8Q
And, undiscern'd, her fatal voyage ends. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAC3NooOs2NW
She saw the gath'ring crowd; and, gliding thence, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAYJkCEcV8vw
The desart shore, and fleet without defense. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAhSzkeFTy0f
The Trojan matrons, on the sands alone, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANABGl0SaFkVb
With sighs and tears Anchises' death bemoan; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAaK4uWsHXS5
Then, turning to the sea their weeping eyes, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAi7JsY4RRyM
Their pity to themselves renews their cries. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA2RiFhVh7kJ
"Alas!" said one, "what oceans yet remain 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA6oOTZjMXxO
For us to sail! what labors to sustain!" 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAARuMZp1yX5
All take the word, and, with a gen'ral groan, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAw10Q7WSFm8
Implore the gods for peace, and places of their own. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAqODidcf5vV
The goddess, great in mischief, views their pains, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAsFm7AmeOlc
And in a woman's form her heav'nly limbs restrains. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAqqcn0DhEzz
In face and shape old Beroe she became, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAv0anpkZJGU
Doryclus' wife, a venerable dame, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAfrCXLUwsIK
Once blest with riches, and a mother's name. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANABsFmpGIiDC
Thus chang'd, amidst the crying crowd she ran, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAbpLggGlUzR
Mix'd with the matrons, and these words began: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAFvaWBsDjod
"O wretched we, whom not the Grecian pow'r, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAFsytCVoqze
Nor flames, destroy'd, in Troy's unhappy hour! 1163Please respect copyright.PENANASPefJnMCqf
O wretched we, reserv'd by cruel fate, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA0UumKkuVa7
Beyond the ruins of the sinking state! 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAjS9WnCLLY4
Now sev'n revolving years are wholly run, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANADnJvNYnU4f
Since this improsp'rous voyage we begun; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANASyMbvf35ip
Since, toss'd from shores to shores, from lands to lands, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAJcDxpuXlJf
Inhospitable rocks and barren sands, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAX0QsyvFfn2
Wand'ring in exile thro' the stormy sea, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA8dUa7wnofO
We search in vain for flying Italy. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANALLnA9E1s5S
Now cast by fortune on this kindred land, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAVTo5HYsO8W
What should our rest and rising walls withstand, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAGhqfU7Rteo
Or hinder here to fix our banish'd band? 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA9N8RDepxb6
O country lost, and gods redeem'd in vain, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANADQsQHijP1I
If still in endless exile we remain! 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAJjoQ55ZxUs
Shall we no more the Trojan walls renew, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAgImgF8VKOy
Or streams of some dissembled Simois view! 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAj6COqP3gse
Haste, join with me, th' unhappy fleet consume! 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAbelOjYKS4A
Cassandra bids; and I declare her doom. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAcZ5KdQH09y
In sleep I saw her; she supplied my hands 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAucKMuEVST3
(For this I more than dreamt) with flaming brands: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAlifhcwFODn
'With these,' said she, 'these wand'ring ships destroy: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANACdbVBnrUEb
These are your fatal seats, and this your Troy.' 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAhSAN2SwSAw
Time calls you now; the precious hour employ: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA7eMwASiLKv
Slack not the good presage, while Heav'n inspires 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAo1CBMl4Fwz
Our minds to dare, and gives the ready fires. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAVwtPmTX38f
See! Neptune's altars minister their brands: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAWHQEruQK7L
The god is pleas'd; the god supplies our hands." 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAV8aG3fI6mI
Then from the pile a flaming fire she drew, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAHKQ3exJ2Fn
And, toss'd in air, amidst the galleys threw. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAV7lnvhrx5a
Wrapp'd in amaze, the matrons wildly stare: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAjGBCulR9uq
Then Pyrgo, reverenc'd for her hoary hair, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANABFIofwkvLr
Pyrgo, the nurse of Priam's num'rous race: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAGWlNolf2OP
"No Beroe this, tho' she belies her face! 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAhkmklh2kNW
What terrors from her frowning front arise! 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAlha8ti8i0F
Behold a goddess in her ardent eyes! 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAV37LUNHkGo
What rays around her heav'nly face are seen! 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAL5edSdHM98
Mark her majestic voice, and more than mortal mien! 1163Please respect copyright.PENANANtqBjljQc3
Beroe but now I left, whom, pin'd with pain, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAStYeelULiN
Her age and anguish from these rites detain," 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAwDc4Fg7tha
She said. The matrons, seiz'd with new amaze, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAybmuIj5yWl
Roll their malignant eyes, and on the navy gaze. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAlAaY3Lg7PH
They fear, and hope, and neither part obey: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANALu4ZGaNAv1
They hope the fated land, but fear the fatal way. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAQ4EmmSpj7F
The goddess, having done her task below, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANARUI4BWkKWQ
Mounts up on equal wings, and bends her painted bow. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAd6YQR8qBso
Struck with the sight, and seiz'd with rage divine, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA3DzjEfLLNW
The matrons prosecute their mad design: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAWfMizrvemI
They shriek aloud; they snatch, with impious hands, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAkIOwS1jFwj
The food of altars; fires and flaming brands. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA5nreIGGUc4
Green boughs and saplings, mingled in their haste, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAisJOVFmxVj
And smoking torches, on the ships they cast. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAXLBqcVYTo0
The flame, unstopp'd at first, more fury gains, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAIAc3H7BC5I
And Vulcan rides at large with loosen'd reins: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAynHsj0e49m
Triumphant to the painted sterns he soars, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAgGnA3vZE5b
And seizes, in this way, the banks and crackling oars. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAsl6EEL6Xhh
Eumelus was the first the news to bear, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAEaPxm7HmNS
While yet they crowd the rural theater. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA09Jive6gbS
Then, what they hear, is witness'd by their eyes: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAsiXZGxtasq
A storm of sparkles and of flames arise. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAoniBKmeuQK
Ascanius took th' alarm, while yet he led 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAAh3k9FOZjf
His early warriors on his prancing steed, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAbXxbxDMZoD
And, spurring on, his equals soon o'erpass'd; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAwfCbHifyNN
Nor could his frighted friends reclaim his haste. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAPDDfQ8eygu
Soon as the royal youth appear'd in view, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAWc87cPrLrx
He sent his voice before him as he flew: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAY0I9YyyFPt
"What madness moves you, matrons, to destroy 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAcPrZ07Th92
The last remainders of unhappy Troy! 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAKdgzB1zmfo
Not hostile fleets, but your own hopes, you burn, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANATcob8Gsa1R
And on your friends your fatal fury turn. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAMD8Gvge0Vh
Behold your own Ascanius!" While he said, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAon8V5YOMQw
He drew his glitt'ring helmet from his head, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAslFd6n4Nvd
In which the youths to sportful arms he led. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA7fNOdJfYAC
By this, Aeneas and his train appear; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA0UzGuwcqSy
And now the women, seiz'd with shame and fear, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA6Wabo34w8q
Dispers'd, to woods and caverns take their flight, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANABjF5ywAOaG
Abhor their actions, and avoid the light; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAUM4psd0XHU
Their friends acknowledge, and their error find, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAoP6VbHlekX
And shake the goddess from their alter'd mind. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANADCkFMGvg1k
Not so the raging fires their fury cease, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAmou7huvlEU
But, lurking in the seams, with seeming peace, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA52K9irwof1
Work on their way amid the smold'ring tow, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAAxVdcMJxAf
Sure in destruction, but in motion slow. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAiHExy76kID
The silent plague thro' the green timber eats, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAiKdHsgLE2g
And vomits out a tardy flame by fits. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAwLzmx2dvt2
Down to the keels, and upward to the sails, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA2c0FUsNpkz
The fire descends, or mounts, but still prevails; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAbFiJstqU1S
Nor buckets pour'd, nor strength of human hand, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAMxBUaGV25H
Can the victorious element withstand. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA7KnbUI7IGx
The pious hero rends his robe, and throws 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAVV0kyp9VDL
To heav'n his hands, and with his hands his vows. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAbOVwUqWgcN
"O Jove," he cried, "if pray'rs can yet have place; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAtXdmS3vY5o
If thou abhorr'st not all the Dardan race; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAb5AfMfNgdI
If any spark of pity still remain; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAoBeLQXC0O6
If gods are gods, and not invok'd in vain; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAJmNPHI5I9R
Yet spare the relics of the Trojan train! 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA50jb3DRCZK
Yet from the flames our burning vessels free, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAtAF9dEFwAN
Or let thy fury fall alone on me! 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAU5cAgSZmeu
At this devoted head thy thunder throw, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA8z9zWBGZYC
And send the willing sacrifice below!" 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA5Y8wdHkKAG
Scarce had he said, when southern storms arise: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANATvcV6qUrUl
From pole to pole the forky lightning flies; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAC4qLumgbJI
Loud rattling shakes the mountains and the plain; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAhNaINgyCsz
Heav'n bellies downward, and descends in rain. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAhlIwAClNJD
Whole sheets of water from the clouds are sent, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAwBrDARfHxq
Which, hissing thro' the planks, the flames prevent, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAxuRFUkpiCd
And stop the fiery pest. Four ships alone 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAHvkzW5QPMY
Burn to the waist, and for the fleet atone. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA1P3melRllX
But doubtful thoughts the hero's heart divide; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAXypY2iQCsd
If he should still in Sicily reside, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA2q0c64nEpA
Forgetful of his fates, or tempt the main, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAPGQqALBnGM
In hope the promis'd Italy to gain. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANATItqQoEGmg
Then Nautes, old and wise, to whom alone 1163Please respect copyright.PENANADcOXrRQcZ6
The will of Heav'n by Pallas was foreshown; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAQoVibXRwD6
Vers'd in portents, experienc'd, and inspir'd 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAHfOikszkBL
To tell events, and what the fates requir'd; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA7Vizc0GDES
Thus while he stood, to neither part inclin'd, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAwrmvUovOXy
With cheerful words reliev'd his lab'ring mind: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAIE8bCilrVl
"O goddess-born, resign'd in ev'ry state, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAlMGgqFYpY6
With patience bear, with prudence push your fate. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAPx99LRuP4P
By suff'ring well, our Fortune we subdue; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAkBdPWdUKeD
Fly when she frowns, and, when she calls, pursue. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAdoabCu01bd
Your friend Acestes is of Trojan kind; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANARenN3rCZIn
To him disclose the secrets of your mind: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA2AXukc6RjF
Trust in his hands your old and useless train; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAVpOkQQPQ0m
Too num'rous for the ships which yet remain: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAnt2xvTQSFA
The feeble, old, indulgent of their ease, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAXC5iL2Viim
The dames who dread the dangers of the seas, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAxjOGgOi3cS
With all the dastard crew, who dare not stand 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAjuWLWA0JnY
The shock of battle with your foes by land. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAIkgpDt0OP8
Here you may build a common town for all, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANASGaWZWS3WQ
And, from Acestes' name, Acesta call." 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA796Gs1h2vv
The reasons, with his friend's experience join'd, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAIhYYXuZnlB
Encourag'd much, but more disturb'd his mind. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAjsxAKy1q1B
'T was dead of night; when to his slumb'ring eyes 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAlVYgYXwtdL
His father's shade descended from the skies, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAY6KgCVL7xF
And thus he spoke: "O more than vital breath, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAuraSUyPMRD
Lov'd while I liv'd, and dear ev'n after death; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAygPQ30gAYg
O son, in various toils and troubles toss'd, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAawdsGOmJVx
The King of Heav'n employs my careful ghost 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA988paq9e1e
On his commands: the god, who sav'd from fire 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAI53DhQZFrW
Your flaming fleet, and heard your just desire. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAwiMjsL5KJc
The wholesome counsel of your friend receive, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA1tQ3veYCiN
And here the coward train and woman leave: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA4Vq6ftf3hX
The chosen youth, and those who nobly dare, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAXRdH9eg23N
Transport, to tempt the dangers of the war. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAuN2EU7nGEP
The stern Italians will their courage try; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAd9GqGYtY3O
Rough are their manners, and their minds are high. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAuUTzf7pli7
But first to Pluto's palace you shall go, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAOvkxOwyX9U
And seek my shade among the blest below: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAYf8JT4syo3
For not with impious ghosts my soul remains, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAFwUMV0uLsZ
Nor suffers with the damn'd perpetual pains, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAypck4v0iSC
But breathes the living air of soft Elysian plains. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAGGdIf0IQic
The chaste Sibylla shall your steps convey, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAR4zLQtH6MQ
And blood of offer'd victims free the way. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAGMcLI3nbpy
There shall you know what realms the gods assign, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAcaiqhC1N4V
And learn the fates and fortunes of your line. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAbxzJSHqGaV
But now, farewell! I vanish with the night, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAYETFrJrRKw
And feel the blast of heav'n's approaching light." 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAYVI81EJM2q
He said, and mix'd with shades, and took his airy flight. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAIAIlOXaFab
"Whither so fast?" the filial duty cried; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAgSABm3yzpf
"And why, ah why, the wish'd embrace denied?" 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA0tmTtyawA9
He said, and rose; as holy zeal inspires, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAlMp1S5XFMZ
He rakes hot embers, and renews the fires; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAFCsCad5XyW
His country gods and Vesta then adores 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA9dnBdrGHln
With cakes and incense, and their aid implores. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANArwb59rljJ0
Next, for his friends and royal host he sent, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAfqWoKxD35y
Reveal'd his vision, and the gods' intent, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANANXJauOjIIe
With his own purpose. All, without delay, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAqdCzU2zujY
The will of Jove, and his desires obey. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAWxjJWOhJcy
They list with women each degenerate name, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANASqeZIsW2mp
Who dares not hazard life for future fame. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAGcwW4hr9rW
These they cashier: the brave remaining few, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAUM09IkYMgH
Oars, banks, and cables, half consum'd, renew. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAQLf4vSRL8S
The prince designs a city with the plow; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANADDkcOAqxsm
The lots their sev'ral tenements allow. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAFHwo2Kpo8p
This part is nam'd from Ilium, that from Troy, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAnpOheH3wQb
And the new king ascends the throne with joy; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANARTK4xW6D4C
A chosen senate from the people draws; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAQr3SvsMF0p
Appoints the judges, and ordains the laws. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANARuzcXgStTq
Then, on the top of Eryx, they begin 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA1eqLyCE6pb
A rising temple to the Paphian queen. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAKf1TeuJkdE
Anchises, last, is honor'd as a god; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANACE5MpkZT7J
A priest is added, annual gifts bestow'd, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAChpkznAlHt
And groves are planted round his blest abode. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA8KTYXRlV8Y
Nine days they pass in feasts, their temples crown'd; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAcqVzn6Os1Z
And fumes of incense in the fanes abound. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAksbTKFbj3E
Then from the south arose a gentle breeze 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAAd5zTd7VUE
That curl'd the smoothness of the glassy seas; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAjbPwfvGY8R
The rising winds a ruffling gale afford, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAHscwmJedpG
And call the merry mariners aboard. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAP6C5CdHc7P
Now loud laments along the shores resound, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAphUsxr3Ah9
Of parting friends in close embraces bound. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAOgOVT1KGTq
The trembling women, the degenerate train, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAJsRSjh2CjW
Who shunn'd the frightful dangers of the main, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAt5HK1q34Xq
Ev'n those desire to sail, and take their share 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAkyiAIQJXDM
Of the rough passage and the promis'd war: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAI2oBEdJMKH
Whom good Aeneas cheers, and recommends 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAbJt7X7fSFt
To their new master's care his fearful friends. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAD4njCaFRNI
On Eryx's altars three fat calves he lays; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA22bMettqc2
A lamb new-fallen to the stormy seas; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAnTw9ymv1Ay
Then slips his haulsers, and his anchors weighs. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAnkojUe28Ie
High on the deck the godlike hero stands, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAh4U8v3TZyh
With olive crown'd, a charger in his hands; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAT1hhwzAN2D
Then cast the reeking entrails in the brine, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANANHyKlpR2jd
And pour'd the sacrifice of purple wine. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAKwAcjH6iW0
Fresh gales arise; with equal strokes they vie, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA0kjm6zJ2ac
And brush the buxom seas, and o'er the billows fly. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAc5g3HyL7U8
Meantime the mother goddess, full of fears, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAOnasBbg0ss
To Neptune thus address'd, with tender tears: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANATdN9MnlKYI
"The pride of Jove's imperious queen, the rage, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAu9IBNwVhF5
The malice which no suff'rings can assuage, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAkYgrxYFbGI
Compel me to these pray'rs; since neither fate, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAFGk9gxbSGz
Nor time, nor pity, can remove her hate: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAGqH2O4pObh
Ev'n Jove is thwarted by his haughty wife; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAjZFEKmUv3U
Still vanquish'd, yet she still renews the strife. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAe0mbWwA7xA
As if 't were little to consume the town 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAiEjZaNGClt
Which aw'd the world, and wore th' imperial crown, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAuCctlEH2K4
She prosecutes the ghost of Troy with pains, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAsYaRFlfkGM
And gnaws, ev'n to the bones, the last remains. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAZu63vKuoyg
Let her the causes of her hatred tell; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAGHAXigOuP1
But you can witness its effects too well. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAP7RHkoedJL
You saw the storm she rais'd on Libyan floods, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAIyYEGxotDn
That mix'd the mounting billows with the clouds; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA0VRI3BOf40
When, bribing Aeolus, she shook the main, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAIcpECAcgbD
And mov'd rebellion in your wat'ry reign. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA2CaFG5knVi
With fury she possess'd the Dardan dames, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAmI2ihGZ4tP
To burn their fleet with execrable flames, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA4IRVdWctds
And forc'd Aeneas, when his ships were lost, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANABSa6KHLKcH
To leave his foll'wers on a foreign coast. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAp7F5USe90r
For what remains, your godhead I implore, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAzokkWmES7Q
And trust my son to your protecting pow'r. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAL6mmQUa2XQ
If neither Jove's nor Fate's decree withstand, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAatHgTYTMUf
Secure his passage to the Latian land." 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAIyw94mdM8K
Then thus the mighty Ruler of the Main: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAAZW7ILNfes
"What may not Venus hope from Neptune's reign? 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAyRuE689IZU
My kingdom claims your birth; my late defense 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA7MRX2aRd7W
Of your indanger'd fleet may claim your confidence. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAwtw8mHENi0
Nor less by land than sea my deeds declare 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAazVUqQBnyD
How much your lov'd Aeneas is my care. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA8gyRjPFWZ0
Thee, Xanthus, and thee, Simois, I attest. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAYvblJpRkSU
Your Trojan troops when proud Achilles press'd, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAwnjM5wQPT9
And drove before him headlong on the plain, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAFT0rHHQY7Q
And dash'd against the walls the trembling train; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAGoJhk0EmBB
When floods were fill'd with bodies of the slain; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAI6vtRb6apU
When crimson Xanthus, doubtful of his way, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAuuWanf2J7W
Stood up on ridges to behold the sea; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAK4xiKOrECn
(New heaps came tumbling in, and chok'd his way;) 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAuIATjoerLh
When your Aeneas fought, but fought with odds 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAgxkZQ0LYON
Of force unequal, and unequal gods; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAuxWxcI4Ktg
I spread a cloud before the victor's sight, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANABPkKSgYgPo
Sustain'd the vanquish'd, and secur'd his flight; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAca4Zt9wyD0
Ev'n then secur'd him, when I sought with joy 1163Please respect copyright.PENANADG34jXC5Yv
The vow'd destruction of ungrateful Troy. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANANe6r3Q04EU
My will's the same: fair goddess, fear no more, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAr7tFoOLDwO
Your fleet shall safely gain the Latian shore; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAAm6ZCn4JaC
Their lives are giv'n; one destin'd head alone 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAalLQkmMHq2
Shall perish, and for multitudes atone." 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAiXiEHPTdjw
Thus having arm'd with hopes her anxious mind, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANApzjvPKGO86
His finny team Saturnian Neptune join'd, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAJclFGjWgqI
Then adds the foamy bridle to their jaws, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAx0v9W6GSvd
And to the loosen'd reins permits the laws. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA6xuWQimkF0
High on the waves his azure car he guides; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAig7XOLzUAZ
Its axles thunder, and the sea subsides, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAO1nLATVP00
And the smooth ocean rolls her silent tides. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANALthv77mFfY
The tempests fly before their father's face, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAIpb4iGaLgK
Trains of inferior gods his triumph grace, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAdYDFybyXH9
And monster whales before their master play, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAw7KfjAUuMM
And choirs of Tritons crowd the wat'ry way. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAWTWkyXlMOJ
The marshal'd pow'rs in equal troops divide 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAWZrYRc23CK
To right and left; the gods his better side 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAw6kvInkQiK
Inclose, and on the worse the Nymphs and Nereids ride. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAZkwKOfX1dg
Now smiling hope, with sweet vicissitude, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA5YYe1xqB9H
Within the hero's mind his joys renew'd. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAZXYXZcB48t
He calls to raise the masts, the sheets display; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA8ZQbI7HGtJ
The cheerful crew with diligence obey; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAE5KRw89uat
They scud before the wind, and sail in open sea. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAwqUeQkW8Tc
Ahead of all the master pilot steers; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAmPZQX8ioBR
And, as he leads, the following navy veers. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAdKLCQe9qSe
The steeds of Night had travel'd half the sky, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAyWezrTvuHZ
The drowsy rowers on their benches lie, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAsCIZYrPE45
When the soft God of Sleep, with easy flight, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANANDP3XnXAyV
Descends, and draws behind a trail of light. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA4Poq9K1A3h
Thou, Palinurus, art his destin'd prey; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAfPGDt3pSyT
To thee alone he takes his fatal way. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAwFLNKuFZx1
Dire dreams to thee, and iron sleep, he bears; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAJ9LrVIf2by
And, lighting on thy prow, the form of Phorbas wears. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAFcNQKTWZTm
Then thus the traitor god began his tale: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAoxXzkCYfrX
"The winds, my friend, inspire a pleasing gale; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAiftCBF8urp
The ships, without thy care, securely sail. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAmLa6MATumm
Now steal an hour of sweet repose; and I 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAmr6WK7PQa9
Will take the rudder and thy room supply." 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA59jYaQXBJU
To whom the yawning pilot, half asleep: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAAbi5QlTHhX
"Me dost thou bid to trust the treach'rous deep, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANACrQKrK2S8u
The harlot smiles of her dissembling face, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAT1M31fFbe3
And to her faith commit the Trojan race? 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAPsQWuJj6sz
Shall I believe the Siren South again, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAtNNQ6HMaSY
And, oft betray'd, not know the monster main?" 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAj22T41fvhK
He said: his fasten'd hands the rudder keep, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAGICRCK7dXa
And, fix'd on heav'n, his eyes repel invading sleep. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA6dEpJyNOvh
The god was wroth, and at his temples threw 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAo1SlLPJvhn
A branch in Lethe dipp'd, and drunk with Stygian dew: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAFWPtVDpaUo
The pilot, vanquish'd by the pow'r divine, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAqFWiGUrd37
Soon clos'd his swimming eyes, and lay supine. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAaaNgaAFkSH
Scarce were his limbs extended at their length, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAUUd4bmulmb
The god, insulting with superior strength, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAqDlFTSklPS
Fell heavy on him, plung'd him in the sea, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAqZNiI7sjTr
And, with the stern, the rudder tore away. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAHmSINwaJvV
Headlong he fell, and, struggling in the main, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA7QHBtM6RiT
Cried out for helping hands, but cried in vain. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAYdZSwKR7mI
The victor daemon mounts obscure in air, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAbbtuWb4H3c
While the ship sails without the pilot's care. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAGoMs3adATl
On Neptune's faith the floating fleet relies; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA4LwmwGSdr2
But what the man forsook, the god supplies, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAZU5tvKtk46
And o'er the dang'rous deep secure the navy flies; 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAHpq29HX1gi
Glides by the Sirens' cliffs, a shelfy coast, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAspKk8kblLr
Long infamous for ships and sailors lost, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAdYeXsnCG9w
And white with bones. Th' impetuous ocean roars, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAejU80ufbMc
And rocks rebellow from the sounding shores. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA4fcIXj0kdK
The watchful hero felt the knocks, and found 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAZ8Idsr8J67
The tossing vessel sail'd on shoaly ground. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA8Os4ED8OaP
Sure of his pilot's loss, he takes himself 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAbG0aFb81OY
The helm, and steers aloof, and shuns the shelf. 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAO4H0FxYqqb
Inly he griev'd, and, groaning from the breast, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA4vrZlg8Rda
Deplor'd his death; and thus his pain express'd: 1163Please respect copyright.PENANAypZvgpRvea
"For faith repos'd on seas, and on the flatt'ring sky, 1163Please respect copyright.PENANASiq8xaY4Zy
Thy naked corpse is doom'd on shores unknown to lie." 1163Please respect copyright.PENANA4sCawK1lxy
