Meantime the Trojan cuts his wat'ry way, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAlSjVEclBy3
Fix'd on his voyage, thro' the curling sea; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAuqtv14r5ty
Then, casting back his eyes, with dire amaze, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAC1vgwjZYhz
Sees on the Punic shore the mounting blaze. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAyl5VMJgmmE
The cause unknown; yet his presaging mind 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAX2ljnpTmYb
The fate of Dido from the fire divin'd; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANASQopBEu32m
He knew the stormy souls of womankind, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAVjqziIhsEA
What secret springs their eager passions move, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAhjaOrdOTQ3
How capable of death for injur'd love. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANABbMmsgBOvK
Dire auguries from hence the Trojans draw; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA0W7zz4dVTp
Till neither fires nor shining shores they saw. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA0HKIxUznzF
Now seas and skies their prospect only bound; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAG5mJlROQP1
An empty space above, a floating field around. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAlMI3Dh51n4
But soon the heav'ns with shadows were o'erspread; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA904RD57fFf
A swelling cloud hung hov'ring o'er their head: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAlKMM5SKZYX
Livid it look'd, the threat'ning of a storm: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAOsVCNWBiOT
Then night and horror ocean's face deform. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAD3sY8STOg6
The pilot, Palinurus, cried aloud: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAnrigaTS0d4
"What gusts of weather from that gath'ring cloud 1193Please respect copyright.PENANABcc0WDFP40
My thoughts presage! Ere yet the tempest roars, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAkQ3Zecvmud
Stand to your tackle, mates, and stretch your oars; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANABifJIRY1af
Contract your swelling sails, and luff to wind." 1193Please respect copyright.PENANANF1HbnQ4Wt
The frighted crew perform the task assign'd. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAF5rknuupud
Then, to his fearless chief: "Not Heav'n," said he, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAs3WEUkDlSu
"Tho' Jove himself should promise Italy, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA7ewIfyYpLV
Can stem the torrent of this raging sea. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAedExq4ux14
Mark how the shifting winds from west arise, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA9oNnVaGyJt
And what collected night involves the skies! 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAqcfQPBBCL1
Nor can our shaken vessels live at sea, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANARXBkEYpyOm
Much less against the tempest force their way. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAevYfi6QFAU
'T is fate diverts our course, and fate we must obey. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA5MQ0LWLC8z
Not far from hence, if I observ'd aright 1193Please respect copyright.PENANABbZh2Sfw1e
The southing of the stars, and polar light, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAHxDu2qbC8q
Sicilia lies, whose hospitable shores 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAfEYauayaPw
In safety we may reach with struggling oars." 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA2FBQnXCLhL
Aeneas then replied: "Too sure I find 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAt3VzHcHN1G
We strive in vain against the seas and wind: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAsAq1hVYAdi
Now shift your sails; what place can please me more 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8Vg02LE36t
Than what you promise, the Sicilian shore, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAOv3Nb6bx7r
Whose hallow'd earth Anchises' bones contains, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAqo0su5EqFv
And where a prince of Trojan lineage reigns?" 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAudHp0Wubsx
The course resolv'd, before the western wind 1193Please respect copyright.PENANABLamVlALZI
They scud amain, and make the port assign'd. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAGr6Fr5i4Va
Meantime Acestes, from a lofty stand, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAWPalpY24pK
Beheld the fleet descending on the land; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8xpqLNJ3Qq
And, not unmindful of his ancient race, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAiIGWkxmZVb
Down from the cliff he ran with eager pace, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAZpRkmqlRFH
And held the hero in a strict embrace. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAMCmtlw3p39
Of a rough Libyan bear the spoils he wore, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA1qgIhyOWAx
And either hand a pointed jav'lin bore. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA4Tif8AYYwg
His mother was a dame of Dardan blood; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAqkNwmWL5Zf
His sire Crinisus, a Sicilian flood. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAdAHArZrbTc
He welcomes his returning friends ashore 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA29VM3OtWfk
With plenteous country cates and homely store. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAJYdJg7Tnk7
Now, when the following morn had chas'd away 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAAmsdsKYecq
The flying stars, and light restor'd the day, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA0w10Nx2Po3
Aeneas call'd the Trojan troops around, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA2upB2mcMKT
And thus bespoke them from a rising ground: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAGRoQR3Ostg
"Offspring of heav'n, divine Dardanian race! 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAHwq7dD8ece
The sun, revolving thro' th' ethereal space, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAUKiTQs5dd5
The shining circle of the year has fill'd, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAv0wZV0nfl9
Since first this isle my father's ashes held: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAL3vtgUY1VS
And now the rising day renews the year; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA3DMPsEUzuX
A day for ever sad, for ever dear. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAbiEEXCmmhc
This would I celebrate with annual games, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAmtKp4mGG3O
With gifts on altars pil'd, and holy flames, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAwdmtNQ9pGR
Tho' banish'd to Gaetulia's barren sands, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAIiBnlcZqSd
Caught on the Grecian seas, or hostile lands: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA2VaQwaRcMO
But since this happy storm our fleet has driv'n 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAtco8FmPDRi
(Not, as I deem, without the will of Heav'n) 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAXA6JSQms49
Upon these friendly shores and flow'ry plains, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAwS4B2L66sH
Which hide Anchises and his blest remains, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAaXqz4ezXMN
Let us with joy perform his honors due, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAeqTXHyFlpx
And pray for prosp'rous winds, our voyage to renew; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAugBQMoQ0R8
Pray, that in towns and temples of our own, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAeoFV5Hhx4V
The name of great Anchises may be known, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8vR8BEK6CZ
And yearly games may spread the gods' renown. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAZrj224CFEo
Our sports Acestes, of the Trojan race, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA4Hd6ntB4N9
With royal gifts ordain'd, is pleas'd to grace: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANApfBgN3mXCd
Two steers on ev'ry ship the king bestows; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAv2J2QpMxOt
His gods and ours shall share your equal vows. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8Lue3B8uru
Besides, if, nine days hence, the rosy morn 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAKRrnAh1Baf
Shall with unclouded light the skies adorn, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAoxmfqsc07h
That day with solemn sports I mean to grace: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAJu2SqoaTRQ
Light galleys on the seas shall run a wat'ry race; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAdDmqjd7O4r
Some shall in swiftness for the goal contend, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAd6zsyWMrqp
And others try the twanging bow to bend; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANApjgXnFFtzc
The strong, with iron gauntlets arm'd, shall stand 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAkvTIN8UpMd
Oppos'd in combat on the yellow sand. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANArfengp6xiq
Let all be present at the games prepar'd, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANALcIWZ57ioi
And joyful victors wait the just reward. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAVfeqX193AN
But now assist the rites, with garlands crown'd." 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAXgNAIfeh9w
He said, and first his brows with myrtle bound. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAjMbq9eYSb3
Then Helymus, by his example led, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAfOA560iwNh
And old Acestes, each adorn'd his head; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAm3Sa8dZSZb
Thus young Ascanius, with a sprightly grace, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAclsqyROnPO
His temples tied, and all the Trojan race. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANATZMiaHHyHB
Aeneas then advanc'd amidst the train, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAjJFrzUARCX
By thousands follow'd thro' the flow'ry plain, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA4A9d1jZPJU
To great Anchises' tomb; which when he found, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAoyqbZER3CO
He pour'd to Bacchus, on the hallow'd ground, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAWak9NhO8kq
Two bowls of sparkling wine, of milk two more, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8i7YRz4LvG
And two (from offer'd bulls) of purple gore, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAhEItsiEma0
With roses then the sepulcher he strow'd 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAFrWvNsO9la
And thus his father's ghost bespoke aloud: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA4r0vNOm7gC
"Hail, O ye holy manes! hail again, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAU8g4n4UOHF
Paternal ashes, now review'd in vain! 1193Please respect copyright.PENANANqZqfIIVyf
The gods permitted not, that you, with me, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANASrCgEwIpfu
Should reach the promis'd shores of Italy, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAhlayheWSRa
Or Tiber's flood, what flood soe'er it be." 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAsOQWuzrCXH
Scarce had he finish'd, when, with speckled pride, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAYpPc6g64Rf
A serpent from the tomb began to glide; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA4u8qkzom0S
His hugy bulk on sev'n high volumes roll'd; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAOZNqzBVcIn
Blue was his breadth of back, but streak'd with scaly gold: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAbWNaZGJgHC
Thus riding on his curls, he seem'd to pass 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAisJ7lKtM7v
A rolling fire along, and singe the grass. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAQqgwEzcpUh
More various colors thro' his body run, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAxPfOT1Uv6c
Than Iris when her bow imbibes the sun. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAhilmQXI9L1
Betwixt the rising altars, and around, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANABaeoshyKms
The sacred monster shot along the ground; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAtfrqqa9GKk
With harmless play amidst the bowls he pass'd, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANALyWdSpv9lx
And with his lolling tongue assay'd the taste: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAvyYTHfC0tp
Thus fed with holy food, the wondrous guest 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAN2s3KG2LjF
Within the hollow tomb retir'd to rest. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAItiEGWaKEZ
The pious prince, surpris'd at what he view'd, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA1rJuXGjyFl
The fun'ral honors with more zeal renew'd, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAWubxN233hO
Doubtful if this place's genius were, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAWxOZ6kwvbr
Or guardian of his father's sepulcher. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANACqRFfeCUqD
Five sheep, according to the rites, he slew; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA4EE0LNc49J
As many swine, and steers of sable hue; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAxuCqCXw7m6
New gen'rous wine he from the goblets pour'd. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAZkmhHoehbC
And call'd his father's ghost, from hell restor'd. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA5DxH0sOKI9
The glad attendants in long order come, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAiLJ887MCaY
Off'ring their gifts at great Anchises' tomb: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA3HtXVvIQ6q
Some add more oxen: some divide the spoil; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAi6S8zOVM5z
Some place the chargers on the grassy soil; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANALu97ize21K
Some blow the fires, and off entrails broil. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAyqi1VORz52
Now came the day desir'd. The skies were bright 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA16ioGF0ECJ
With rosy luster of the rising light: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA0cXXJau5JZ
The bord'ring people, rous'd by sounding fame 1193Please respect copyright.PENANATlIpTwe3H5
Of Trojan feasts and great Acestes' name, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA3TH6MMrt0u
The crowded shore with acclamations fill, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAiJNuBh4af3
Part to behold, and part to prove their skill. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAVy1aJABTjm
And first the gifts in public view they place, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANALwLREiJxYA
Green laurel wreaths, and palm, the victors' grace: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA83iVBS85Xv
Within the circle, arms and tripods lie, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAZ8slJtclf5
Ingots of gold and silver, heap'd on high, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAlQc1MiDHH7
And vests embroider'd, of the Tyrian dye. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANADN7kL4Xv0R
The trumpet's clangor then the feast proclaims, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAm0eFoUuLk9
And all prepare for their appointed games. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA9a07WuPzPW
Four galleys first, which equal rowers bear, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAo2s8aAatWb
Advancing, in the wat'ry lists appear. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA0Sy7TAMT3P
The speedy Dolphin, that outstrips the wind, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAkT7KC8eAKY
Bore Mnestheus, author of the Memmian kind: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAnY7Vddymtw
Gyas the vast Chimaera's bulk commands, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAJ27brt3hEo
Which rising, like a tow'ring city stands; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA75tdGI8uPS
Three Trojans tug at ev'ry lab'ring oar; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAumqypx2h8g
Three banks in three degrees the sailors bore; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAmdvbDry7Ja
Beneath their sturdy strokes the billows roar. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANALJN8SlDCjC
Sergesthus, who began the Sergian race, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAWDA2xw6Kcg
In the great Centaur took the leading place; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAyvMI59liHV
Cloanthus on the sea-green Scylla stood, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAqhrcEfMmE3
From whom Cluentius draws his Trojan blood. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAKJk6EhzkC6
Far in the sea, against the foaming shore, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAPVj9njfCzU
There stands a rock: the raging billows roar 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA0QhzBEG2K8
Above his head in storms; but, when 't is clear, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANACbfmzGosPs
Uncurl their ridgy backs, and at his foot appear. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8eQbYRiTP1
In peace below the gentle waters run; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAYZEv20XqN5
The cormorants above lie basking in the sun. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAcaRWCiKhCT
On this the hero fix'd an oak in sight, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAe1BJxyHpX3
The mark to guide the mariners aright. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAPZqlPsTxWc
To bear with this, the seamen stretch their oars; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA7eZeHoyRno
Then round the rock they steer, and seek the former shores. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAw8FnSx5WjJ
The lots decide their place. Above the rest, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAJUPdrb5jGl
Each leader shining in his Tyrian vest; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAk5qWvOLkOM
The common crew with wreaths of poplar boughs 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAcdIpXBRgIA
Their temples crown, and shade their sweaty brows: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAc9VMKoyLY8
Besmear'd with oil, their naked shoulders shine. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANABCzwernzfV
All take their seats, and wait the sounding sign: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAWUSMuTBdV9
They gripe their oars; and ev'ry panting breast 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAaobqtToISU
Is rais'd by turns with hope, by turns with fear depress'd. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA0CYOAaUKuU
The clangor of the trumpet gives the sign; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANARAVvOsIhIR
At once they start, advancing in a line: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAtEm1kJVTsj
With shouts the sailors rend the starry skies; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAlNFJM7eoHF
Lash'd with their oars, the smoky billows rise; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAvxi9mIT6uX
Sparkles the briny main, and the vex'd ocean fries. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA1zujGomzqJ
Exact in time, with equal strokes they row: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAF10XUrDial
At once the brushing oars and brazen prow 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAEmlTVPInn3
Dash up the sandy waves, and ope the depths below. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA2Mx60WsAvE
Not fiery coursers, in a chariot race, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAeCUBqgHAH9
Invade the field with half so swift a pace; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA2P1AExdeAB
Not the fierce driver with more fury lends 1193Please respect copyright.PENANABeB0y0NnOH
The sounding lash, and, ere the stroke descends, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA4opMFuMsJE
Low to the wheels his pliant body bends. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAF2UZm3qfar
The partial crowd their hopes and fears divide, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAiLey8OLvI7
And aid with eager shouts the favor'd side. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAGvQZ3ubFKe
Cries, murmurs, clamors, with a mixing sound, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAEKM3a4obr6
From woods to woods, from hills to hills rebound. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAczFWXObln5
Amidst the loud applauses of the shore, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAjo3W2jXr5x
Gyas outstripp'd the rest, and sprung before: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAljPsL3p372
Cloanthus, better mann'd, pursued him fast, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANABZs4VAQvt7
But his o'er-masted galley check'd his haste. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAz0mChBIREV
The Centaur and the Dolphin brush the brine 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAsjzloabZJH
With equal oars, advancing in a line; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAqO9hveigIx
And now the mighty Centaur seems to lead, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAevRG2tK8F3
And now the speedy Dolphin gets ahead; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAg9n1WwoFxF
Now board to board the rival vessels row, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAlvPFSzc4AW
The billows lave the skies, and ocean groans below. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANANaG0I7ls1U
They reach'd the mark. Proud Gyas and his train 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAavxExxwfKZ
In triumph rode, the victors of the main; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAA4f360zXDq
But, steering round, he charg'd his pilot stand 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA0xDHUxP2Zq
More close to shore, and skim along the sand- 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA5IKlPYo7RH
"Let others bear to sea!" Menoetes heard; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAvXhe2Qw6cB
But secret shelves too cautiously he fear'd, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8hc6peUjtf
And, fearing, sought the deep; and still aloof he steer'd. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAyXzqLMydaE
With louder cries the captain call'd again: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAn2q1Ty067O
"Bear to the rocky shore, and shun the main." 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAPUFbbe3yro
He spoke, and, speaking, at his stern he saw 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAXg6sf8Pb60
The bold Cloanthus near the shelvings draw. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAhWLjXM0H3i
Betwixt the mark and him the Scylla stood, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA7CTcKyxghr
And in a closer compass plow'd the flood. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAaV9xCeolGX
He pass'd the mark; and, wheeling, got before: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAh9Xr7OFNqz
Gyas blasphem'd the gods, devoutly swore, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAo4xJsoB7eZ
Cried out for anger, and his hair he tore. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAsbBVZFppCH
Mindless of others' lives (so high was grown 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAfKx8wTU2E0
His rising rage) and careless of his own, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAqfYF4z2VYH
The trembling dotard to the deck he drew; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA0fNi9cMwMC
Then hoisted up, and overboard he threw: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5uJaPLKYv
This done, he seiz'd the helm; his fellows cheer'd, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAi86vua3eIm
Turn'd short upon the shelfs, and madly steer'd. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANANOWjvOnNFr
Hardly his head the plunging pilot rears, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAmtCfGrEY2t
Clogg'd with his clothes, and cumber'd with his years: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAKJdVACPR2a
Now dropping wet, he climbs the cliff with pain. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAjTdDJumVlB
The crowd, that saw him fall and float again, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAMBx4djxFfj
Shout from the distant shore; and loudly laugh'd, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANARKxrrJgfLU
To see his heaving breast disgorge the briny draught. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA7LVSvpqu61
The following Centaur, and the Dolphin's crew, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAHnoAP1kTD6
Their vanish'd hopes of victory renew; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAuMsLRjesJO
While Gyas lags, they kindle in the race, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA3seCMc8i5m
To reach the mark. Sergesthus takes the place; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAnQ1nPsw6fB
Mnestheus pursues; and while around they wind, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAGJKCvryNQf
Comes up, not half his galley's length behind; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANATCpIgCirEV
Then, on the deck, amidst his mates appear'd, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAgpkfA1efnM
And thus their drooping courage he cheer'd: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANACVyKlbc4qO
"My friends, and Hector's followers heretofore, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAtdpANqbgeC
Exert your vigor; tug the lab'ring oar; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAlgcKyizKgC
Stretch to your strokes, my still unconquer'd crew, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAeQskRf0MTO
Whom from the flaming walls of Troy I drew. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAnvPdDlaGIF
In this, our common int'rest, let me find 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA5YYt3JCntL
That strength of hand, that courage of the mind, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAcZxcYtx2oS
As when you stemm'd the strong Malean flood, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAiUg6v4rvVM
And o'er the Syrtes' broken billows row'd. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAuvXUfAydfk
I seek not now the foremost palm to gain; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8COhQpUbeH
Tho' yet- but, ah! that haughty wish is vain! 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAOypYs6wVP6
Let those enjoy it whom the gods ordain. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAVzeAt09y8h
But to be last, the lags of all the race!- 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAuH1o0u8ahj
Redeem yourselves and me from that disgrace." 1193Please respect copyright.PENANABg6KQg31ed
Now, one and all, they tug amain; they row 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAWe9P6OklHj
At the full stretch, and shake the brazen prow. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANANoGYunFoWm
The sea beneath 'em sinks; their lab'ring sides 1193Please respect copyright.PENANARG2dVYYwUc
Are swell'd, and sweat runs gutt'ring down in tides. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAhDDEjp6biv
Chance aids their daring with unhop'd success; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAwrsJwaQobu
Sergesthus, eager with his beak to press 1193Please respect copyright.PENANABwKBi77hh2
Betwixt the rival galley and the rock, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAMMFnV5c4KD
Shuts up th' unwieldly Centaur in the lock. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAn1LMwvVosC
The vessel struck; and, with the dreadful shock, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAuj7Moy0r7A
Her oars she shiver'd, and her head she broke. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAVjiplZ0hO4
The trembling rowers from their banks arise, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAxxEWOtmdvR
And, anxious for themselves, renounce the prize. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAk3I34hEBBO
With iron poles they heave her off the shores, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANApCnizLCUW0
And gather from the sea their floating oars. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAuafFl2lQqN
The crew of Mnestheus, with elated minds, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAy23Q64hvAh
Urge their success, and call the willing winds; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANApOtqwC0DFF
Then ply their oars, and cut their liquid way 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAupTm9lgsLM
In larger compass on the roomy sea. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAU61MY1jCm6
As, when the dove her rocky hold forsakes, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAE4tPxdn2oO
Rous'd in a fright, her sounding wings she shakes; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAeZzDIQOiw6
The cavern rings with clatt'ring; out she flies, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8CNckmiXnR
And leaves her callow care, and cleaves the skies: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAq21BdfFQi3
At first she flutters; but at length she springs 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA3v4iE3DmNV
To smoother flight, and shoots upon her wings: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAB50SlMs22I
So Mnestheus in the Dolphin cuts the sea; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAlMMsoNcnfg
And, flying with a force, that force assists his way. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAAnX5TdZL8v
Sergesthus in the Centaur soon he pass'd, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAF22KJQ43pb
Wedg'd in the rocky shoals, and sticking fast. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAumw6fM88S9
In vain the victor he with cries implores, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8CgZficmzn
And practices to row with shatter'd oars. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANArf6oM3Dubl
Then Mnestheus bears with Gyas, and outflies: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAQ7idtHG8Mn
The ship, without a pilot, yields the prize. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAF5G4ORFIvi
Unvanquish'd Scylla now alone remains; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANALbr959rOdb
Her he pursues, and all his vigor strains. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAWUZX6JUgiN
Shouts from the fav'ring multitude arise; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA7VhbVrkXhp
Applauding Echo to the shouts replies; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAYrew8cZqhB
Shouts, wishes, and applause run rattling thro' the skies. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAEdV3IE9U2K
These clamors with disdain the Scylla heard, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA1x4Eq9mKH1
Much grudg'd the praise, but more the robb'd reward: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAwEsojgn3qS
Resolv'd to hold their own, they mend their pace, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANArVUxkhz6gL
All obstinate to die, or gain the race. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAlHI6ggiu9D
Rais'd with success, the Dolphin swiftly ran; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAa0qRRT70M7
For they can conquer, who believe they can. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAVjiowlSU6s
Both urge their oars, and fortune both supplies, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA7K4QfEDGdP
And both perhaps had shar'd an equal prize; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA2WdPFGLKSH
When to the seas Cloanthus holds his hands, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANApElDnPgG8W
And succor from the wat'ry pow'rs demands: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAIwokhtiaTN
"Gods of the liquid realms, on which I row! 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAyKLu2QFCa9
If, giv'n by you, the laurel bind my brow, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8D8ErVaz6E
Assist to make me guilty of my vow! 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAdGLZWW40XV
A snow-white bull shall on your shore be slain; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAwC3EMwyV4K
His offer'd entrails cast into the main, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAAMatvzCD8V
And ruddy wine, from golden goblets thrown, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAandnNPZgW3
Your grateful gift and my return shall own." 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA2Y0wdyJYrM
The choir of nymphs, and Phorcus, from below, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANArLIr0AOQrD
With virgin Panopea, heard his vow; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAVNlEFT7RSf
And old Portunus, with his breadth of hand, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAF2sOvFcYJ7
Push'd on, and sped the galley to the land. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA9hrr9CeyhY
Swift as a shaft, or winged wind, she flies, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAFfJsN90v14
And, darting to the port, obtains the prize. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAkOPPWwDydv
The herald summons all, and then proclaims 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAuzyjGXHIV1
Cloanthus conqu'ror of the naval games. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAQOmh42XMUs
The prince with laurel crowns the victor's head, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAJXWHEjTDGk
And three fat steers are to his vessel led, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAHPZTl0HC3o
The ship's reward; with gen'rous wine beside, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA7oWikJ4uCE
And sums of silver, which the crew divide. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAVCu6x5YLDm
The leaders are distinguish'd from the rest; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAFoOXT1sAD9
The victor honor'd with a nobler vest, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAsKoQ4JBYPG
Where gold and purple strive in equal rows, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAuDd3GBXSkg
And needlework its happy cost bestows. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8WBw8mQmtd
There Ganymede is wrought with living art, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAajR9Y1ML7t
Chasing thro' Ida's groves the trembling hart: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA0DOREQo0Os
Breathless he seems, yet eager to pursue; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA2GlNdUgEBK
When from aloft descends, in open view, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANADBKNuzlnZd
The bird of Jove, and, sousing on his prey, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAu2T2eSwvPY
With crooked talons bears the boy away. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8nHRM7DTXU
In vain, with lifted hands and gazing eyes, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANADMQw4HoiFy
His guards behold him soaring thro' the skies, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANACZPBhhFJKb
And dogs pursue his flight with imitated cries. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAyH7ITJ1Ztk
Mnestheus the second victor was declar'd; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAOMAvlKSr3J
And, summon'd there, the second prize he shard. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA4nLcOkIzD2
A coat of mail, brave Demoleus bore, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAuImazIiwav
More brave Aeneas from his shoulders tore, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANABaMIE8WQeA
In single combat on the Trojan shore: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAtWWJGYzjoB
This was ordain'd for Mnestheus to possess; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA46RaSUIvWc
In war for his defense, for ornament in peace. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8xsLfumOdY
Rich was the gift, and glorious to behold, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAEt48u5U6Hs
But yet so pond'rous with its plates of gold, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAbtB1kQb0Uh
That scarce two servants could the weight sustain; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAOVl8NkrPRL
Yet, loaded thus, Demoleus o'er the plain 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAUavklc30eS
Pursued and lightly seiz'd the Trojan train. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAqQc0g3hbUx
The third, succeeding to the last reward, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAnNNDuISEtu
Two goodly bowls of massy silver shar'd, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAnn6T8DmztH
With figures prominent, and richly wrought, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAqmrjrlLc1I
And two brass caldrons from Dodona brought. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAUrFqZOaKTS
Thus all, rewarded by the hero's hands, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANABVReUAfeVA
Their conqu'ring temples bound with purple bands; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA63iPKa7faY
And now Sergesthus, clearing from the rock, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAGz4IV1mmAk
Brought back his galley shatter'd with the shock. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8Q5GaZWFtZ
Forlorn she look'd, without an aiding oar, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAkKGz6r4ACH
And, houted by the vulgar, made to shore. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAEhMwp3phcg
As when a snake, surpris'd upon the road, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAo1thnkvz9R
Is crush'd athwart her body by the load 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAABwzOFFFth
Of heavy wheels; or with a mortal wound 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA0iSzQRy90Z
Her belly bruis'd, and trodden to the ground: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAk70QdNLRaH
In vain, with loosen'd curls, she crawls along; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAYu1E5qwelI
Yet, fierce above, she brandishes her tongue; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANATrcoulf3xV
Glares with her eyes, and bristles with her scales; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAtahlQB0yMg
But, groveling in the dust, her parts unsound she trails: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA3mTGD4zbMs
So slowly to the port the Centaur tends, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAVrjvyjSR7d
But, what she wants in oars, with sails amends. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAiwP3O5rbrU
Yet, for his galley sav'd, the grateful prince 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAAwCIqJt53y
Is pleas'd th' unhappy chief to recompense. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA4E7QvT3erN
Pholoe, the Cretan slave, rewards his care, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAK0yjqb6LBU
Beauteous herself, with lovely twins as fair. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA1ksv53KXjA
From thence his way the Trojan hero bent 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAz8WnUwuxFs
Into the neighb'ring plain, with mountains pent, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAulokYA4nrF
Whose sides were shaded with surrounding wood. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAEWMOwZdNhv
Full in the midst of this fair valley stood 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAoqkZkpPhvC
A native theater, which, rising slow 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAAeiyZHymTs
By just degrees, o'erlook'd the ground below. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAel9HzzoSg4
High on a sylvan throne the leader sate; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAPlfrvCrPnx
A num'rous train attend in solemn state. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAseMDI5XF7a
Here those that in the rapid course delight, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAFiOwY8FMjR
Desire of honor and the prize invite. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAcmXZqZZQox
The rival runners without order stand; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAKD9YtCDbdL
The Trojans mix'd with the Sicilian band. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAVAxEVsD7jX
First Nisus, with Euryalus, appears; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAGO7st2KAUP
Euryalus a boy of blooming years, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAyTGZyKI48d
With sprightly grace and equal beauty crown'd; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAON6rlW00ko
Nisus, for friendship to the youth renown'd. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAxRugkxHzSG
Diores next, of Priam's royal race, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAwozhifqbKh
Then Salius joined with Patron, took their place; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAkhNJhV6CNN
(But Patron in Arcadia had his birth, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAMcAgVeOeOB
And Salius his from Arcananian earth;) 1193Please respect copyright.PENANALYN56AvthW
Then two Sicilian youths- the names of these, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAdMrT24xfMd
Swift Helymus, and lovely Panopes: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAkchuk322ly
Both jolly huntsmen, both in forest bred, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAilSXSaXvZj
And owning old Acestes for their head; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAEfgRD2apuJ
With sev'ral others of ignobler name, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANADjEal3UWOP
Whom time has not deliver'd o'er to fame. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAt3qeuCc42a
To these the hero thus his thoughts explain'd, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAT8L2Cv3Fps
In words which gen'ral approbation gain'd: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAVxvn3jRiYu
"One common largess is for all design'd, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAH3UTy4X4UL
(The vanquish'd and the victor shall be join'd,) 1193Please respect copyright.PENANARMxsO0V0TR
Two darts of polish'd steel and Gnosian wood, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAMunpoeXvW5
A silver-studded ax, alike bestow'd. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAmRT2KCdIEd
The foremost three have olive wreaths decreed: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA0Yo2a9FDol
The first of these obtains a stately steed, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAn4T4ecCDby
Adorn'd with trappings; and the next in fame, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAxIEEKwDLgy
The quiver of an Amazonian dame, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANARwy2bJJl0e
With feather'd Thracian arrows well supplied: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAVevMOLs6Lp
A golden belt shall gird his manly side, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAxZqqZpoMIm
Which with a sparkling diamond shall be tied. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAQfjMkM2i0T
The third this Grecian helmet shall content." 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAxaONW4mX1m
He said. To their appointed base they went; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAkzuulCHEyU
With beating hearts th' expected sign receive, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAEfL7tE798G
And, starting all at once, the barrier leave. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAoX78WLmAee
Spread out, as on the winged winds, they flew, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA75llUOhueJ
And seiz'd the distant goal with greedy view. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAdN0pzV20Tg
Shot from the crowd, swift Nisus all o'erpass'd; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAogMGOG3Wo8
Nor storms, nor thunder, equal half his haste. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA3vGWOScfNS
The next, but tho' the next, yet far disjoin'd, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA21U6BvjJdh
Came Salius, and Euryalus behind; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA4DpADKYhSm
Then Helymus, whom young Diores plied, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAziwlBiCBIf
Step after step, and almost side by side, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA0RuPxh0fW3
His shoulders pressing; and, in longer space, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAIaWRaEAY2g
Had won, or left at least a dubious race. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA9c6hFEDsDQ
Now, spent, the goal they almost reach at last, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAi8wZogk71t
When eager Nisus, hapless in his haste, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAvx5AIi8ORp
Slipp'd first, and, slipping, fell upon the plain, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAJw58evxcQo
Soak'd with the blood of oxen newly slain. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAqT8pukbjzh
The careless victor had not mark'd his way; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8xcZWr49V9
But, treading where the treach'rous puddle lay, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA3ATVWShRLx
His heels flew up; and on the grassy floor 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA2WpbcVsIbx
He fell, besmear'd with filth and holy gore. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAVOAGK3mRdm
Not mindless then, Euryalus, of thee, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAPoELQDKN7G
Nor of the sacred bonds of amity, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA934tYgRrcR
He strove th' immediate rival's hope to cross, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAjjBTz12SUb
And caught the foot of Salius as he rose. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAI4CSteX3hR
So Salius lay extended on the plain; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA2nyL5Owqzo
Euryalus springs out, the prize to gain, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAAiArWDbCkv
And leaves the crowd: applauding peals attend 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAGumb1juwig
The victor to the goal, who vanquish'd by his friend. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAmFDdcCMlse
Next Helymus; and then Diores came, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA5zyCHYGtrK
By two misfortunes made the third in fame. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANACLsYaoWkuL
But Salius enters, and, exclaiming loud 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAo9lZLbVjXJ
For justice, deafens and disturbs the crowd; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA4THQSHGbjA
Urges his cause may in the court be heard; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAE4S9ezgSuj
And pleads the prize is wrongfully conferr'd. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAs7vF4SDffH
But favor for Euryalus appears; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA5IbCeyVtUc
His blooming beauty, with his tender tears, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAiKt0TLudOY
Had brib'd the judges for the promis'd prize. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAYGvQ8v4NQI
Besides, Diores fills the court with cries, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAjObBvp8yox
Who vainly reaches at the last reward, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAkJqc6a8HpM
If the first palm on Salius be conferr'd. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA2t9IyqG5yd
Then thus the prince: "Let no disputes arise: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANADu9tAcauxV
Where fortune plac'd it, I award the prize. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAHBbsi6oXVN
But fortune's errors give me leave to mend, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAsByo7nMhUu
At least to pity my deserving friend." 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAEr8ETFCLNb
He said, and, from among the spoils, he draws 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAJnjiaLSHja
(Pond'rous with shaggy mane and golden paws) 1193Please respect copyright.PENANArqnNWNn5LF
A lion's hide: to Salius this he gives. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAvB5GAUeIVb
Nisus with envy sees the gift, and grieves. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAi8XEJDyXOV
"If such rewards to vanquish'd men are due." 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAFg8Ih9p70D
He said, "and falling is to rise by you, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAwQ0CAti4vR
What prize may Nisus from your bounty claim, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAva5qy8HxCC
Who merited the first rewards and fame? 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAkHvhGvekEM
In falling, both an equal fortune tried; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAtxD3GutI4M
Would fortune for my fall so well provide!" 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA1WZw1yn6xW
With this he pointed to his face, and show'd 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAtd8Z2zaI4i
His hand and all his habit smear'd with blood. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAiTQqiwdWGe
Th' indulgent father of the people smil'd, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAn7uTZ2EheI
And caus'd to be produc'd an ample shield, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAJkg5IOhc3x
Of wondrous art, by Didymaon wrought, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAsbFGMCorbM
Long since from Neptune's bars in triumph brought. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAsyY2Rmdqoa
This giv'n to Nisus, he divides the rest, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANArjYRMuI2mz
And equal justice in his gifts express'd. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAdtBH5bw18z
The race thus ended, and rewards bestow'd, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANALW8LPP3c5i
Once more the princes bespeaks th' attentive crowd: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAsAxRSkglc0
"If there he here whose dauntless courage dare 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAgUkzid4LRE
In gauntlet-fight, with limbs and body bare, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAbVePW8FIfK
His opposite sustain in open view, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANADkQ0jFFxUc
Stand forth the champion, and the games renew. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANABEJfYSWfCz
Two prizes I propose, and thus divide: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAs7yDFcJcmZ
A bull with gilded horns, and fillets tied, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAH1fhx3GEqY
Shall be the portion of the conqu'ring chief; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAGPSvDZBUhi
A sword and helm shall cheer the loser's grief." 1193Please respect copyright.PENANANkinGlGveX
Then haughty Dares in the lists appears; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANACOQFSUKzAg
Stalking he strides, his head erected bears: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAN0SRzyRkIT
His nervous arms the weighty gauntlet wield, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA2BNGZB1Hr9
And loud applauses echo thro' the field. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAozTFd6Jf1P
Dares alone in combat us'd to stand 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAUVJqgVDMwW
The match of mighty Paris, hand to hand; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANATDqYpSfuCC
The same, at Hector's fun'rals, undertook 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8FN0dyc7Gx
Gigantic Butes, of th' Amycian stock, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANACJ8CSeV7RA
And, by the stroke of his resistless hand, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAl4Gz6uWSxs
Stretch'd the vast bulk upon the yellow sand. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAdZBTYPPYqq
Such Dares was; and such he strode along, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAqtvW7ccsL4
And drew the wonder of the gazing throng. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAIkKqD5SVZR
His brawny back and ample breast he shows, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAKRatT3XO0N
His lifted arms around his head he throws, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAnBG0rOXWkF
And deals in whistling air his empty blows. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANANTh7jisoFq
His match is sought; but, thro' the trembling band, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA53yG6cw8tI
Not one dares answer to the proud demand. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAtDESzDqwbI
Presuming of his force, with sparkling eyes 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAVLpagUqeIp
Already he devours the promis'd prize. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAtduZrMZoIS
He claims the bull with awless insolence, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANArhciVy4iMA
And having seiz'd his horns, accosts the prince: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA11ok1ZjdKJ
"If none my matchless valor dares oppose, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAEcuUcyras5
How long shall Dares wait his dastard foes? 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA3hu8pqNGux
Permit me, chief, permit without delay, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAHmyY7x0N9r
To lead this uncontended gift away." 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAY8NOlU3hU4
The crowd assents, and with redoubled cries 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAWpDXBVv0hT
For the proud challenger demands the prize. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAzni25hL6VV
Acestes, fir'd with just disdain, to see 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAPpVnKatv3o
The palm usurp'd without a victory, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAq80zLtUGgL
Reproach'd Entellus thus, who sate beside, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANANmoaYAOFX3
And heard and saw, unmov'd, the Trojan's pride: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAzQ4uVQkVO5
"Once, but in vain, a champion of renown, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAblgyJ7oFQL
So tamely can you bear the ravish'd crown, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAgxdaIJQIcX
A prize in triumph borne before your sight, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAXGT9h0lxqa
And shun, for fear, the danger of the fight? 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAxDiIPKZZrg
Where is our Eryx now, the boasted name, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAjZQuJ4ont7
The god who taught your thund'ring arm the game? 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAfDPwiaa4hc
Where now your baffled honor? Where the spoil 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAfAeJsfKJDr
That fill'd your house, and fame that fill'd our isle?" 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA1rROrjd0jd
Entellus, thus: "My soul is still the same, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAqRFgbFoO3v
Unmov'd with fear, and mov'd with martial fame; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAk7DSByzhhR
But my chill blood is curdled in my veins, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAGAVcaz3GEn
And scarce the shadow of a man remains. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8nSze2wyA5
O could I turn to that fair prime again, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAkx6Llr9oW4
That prime of which this boaster is so vain, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAb5WBXFHEuB
The brave, who this decrepid age defies, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAoXLyutARVJ
Should feel my force, without the promis'd prize." 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAhRwYNTKRtp
He said; and, rising at the word, he threw 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAbUqaMpWxDz
Two pond'rous gauntlets down in open view; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAEbqIZp4q8h
Gauntlets which Eryx wont in fight to wield, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA01gelv4rly
And sheathe his hands with in the listed field. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANABRqfzIzKSV
With fear and wonder seiz'd, the crowd beholds 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAeRMea4gde1
The gloves of death, with sev'n distinguish'd folds 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAsz3nfLhuON
Of tough bull hides; the space within is spread 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8tZBaizeZW
With iron, or with loads of heavy lead: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8Tsg0TnwOH
Dares himself was daunted at the sight, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANALlLZrsVS9V
Renounc'd his challenge, and refus'd to fight. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANABJ5d5VBXBG
Astonish'd at their weight, the hero stands, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAyTbOdGhNDB
And pois'd the pond'rous engines in his hands. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAie6QLaGKVb
"What had your wonder," said Entellus, "been, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAoF4BkRQHFL
Had you the gauntlets of Alcides seen, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAMhVWdkYJJo
Or view'd the stern debate on this unhappy green! 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAzCnEthXsKZ
These which I bear your brother Eryx bore, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA4EohBZeGw2
Still mark'd with batter'd brains and mingled gore. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAggSpFF7X8P
With these he long sustain'd th' Herculean arm; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAuC2T7cvBFm
And these I wielded while my blood was warm, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAssgbKg4v6G
This languish'd frame while better spirits fed, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA4MxXetMMvd
Ere age unstrung my nerves, or time o'ersnow'd my head. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAXpDWQxLu8F
But if the challenger these arms refuse, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAa3JlZJviPT
And cannot wield their weight, or dare not use; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAk1xveSFnWW
If great Aeneas and Acestes join 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAzYuzo0mdPh
In his request, these gauntlets I resign; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANACVXax7wXF1
Let us with equal arms perform the fight, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAQ2Bob4txU8
And let him leave to fear, since I resign my right." 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAvkiquwXWGn
This said, Entellus for the strife prepares; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANArJVktd9NMB
Stripp'd of his quilted coat, his body bares; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAyjYEAIUjqW
Compos'd of mighty bones and brawn he stands, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAJCtsua5PhQ
A goodly tow'ring object on the sands. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAlbSKDOhBsc
Then just Aeneas equal arms supplied, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAFeaBTksPUO
Which round their shoulders to their wrists they tied. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAzS2J2HjGYP
Both on the tiptoe stand, at full extent, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAY1ja3Ayhj5
Their arms aloft, their bodies inly bent; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA3u3DEFYOkG
Their heads from aiming blows they bear afar; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAWg19BU1FTM
With clashing gauntlets then provoke the war. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANARp9nXCMqaZ
One on his youth and pliant limbs relies; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA7aMwRRZPDE
One on his sinews and his giant size. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAEIEJFBaoT6
The last is stiff with age, his motion slow; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAsFhfVVO7iX
He heaves for breath, he staggers to and fro, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAiizhEqCqHI
And clouds of issuing smoke his nostrils loudly blow. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAk026QnoVeS
Yet equal in success, they ward, they strike; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAHCpUWK9HZo
Their ways are diff'rent, but their art alike. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAjAvxMA3tKr
Before, behind, the blows are dealt; around 1193Please respect copyright.PENANADw1rcpghUF
Their hollow sides the rattling thumps resound. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA2kUDpFuE3U
A storm of strokes, well meant, with fury flies, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAWLmhwEgH5P
And errs about their temples, ears, and eyes. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAIBdfKBMADf
Nor always errs; for oft the gauntlet draws 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAbZ6XQ8YhKy
A sweeping stroke along the crackling jaws. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA2rYadLQUVC
Heavy with age, Entellus stands his ground, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA4GwRS1y2ue
But with his warping body wards the wound. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAxQJujHfWGD
His hand and watchful eye keep even pace; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA5u3aS4Pq4T
While Dares traverses and shifts his place, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANABDxpqkfPtK
And, like a captain who beleaguers round 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAdlbjatKwoV
Some strong-built castle on a rising ground, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAYgtjqhk0rj
Views all th' approaches with observing eyes: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAn22n2kfvky
This and that other part in vain he tries, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA01QixZa9Zf
And more on industry than force relies. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANATVzwbbhDuN
With hands on high, Entellus threats the foe; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAQeP6CRM8SQ
But Dares watch'd the motion from below, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAkoib9f5Dt3
And slipp'd aside, and shunn'd the long descending blow. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAFXSlnZ0HFR
Entellus wastes his forces on the wind, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAJ4RjaqCcfM
And, thus deluded of the stroke design'd, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAN2CqEFV1fB
Headlong and heavy fell; his ample breast 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAZNk85OGWvw
And weighty limbs his ancient mother press'd. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAGmxXNuzA3X
So falls a hollow pine, that long had stood 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAG0h2Xo5GUQ
On Ida's height, or Erymanthus' wood, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAOvKqbXaswl
Torn from the roots. The diff'ring nations rise, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAUcVIj6Ci5A
And shouts and mingled murmurs rend the skies, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAIIaiqixQdb
Acestus runs with eager haste, to raise 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA9zMg3BMb41
The fall'n companion of his youthful days. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANALFK3xb8z7S
Dauntless he rose, and to the fight return'd; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAa4wMJkQbbT
With shame his glowing cheeks, his eyes with fury burn'd. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAu2RCrairrz
Disdain and conscious virtue fir'd his breast, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAmwA2BpQ9tH
And with redoubled force his foe he press'd. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA5dfycMPhaS
He lays on load with either hand, amain, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANATAxqu9Hx0I
And headlong drives the Trojan o'er the plain; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAmSNbRIXHsq
Nor stops, nor stays; nor rest nor breath allows; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAD6wu574Shy
But storms of strokes descend about his brows, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAO4MxHnSdmT
A rattling tempest, and a hail of blows. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAOES3orbkDE
But now the prince, who saw the wild increase 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA5v4fJdAI7U
Of wounds, commands the combatants to cease, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANACZvzkcPKSt
And bounds Entellus' wrath, and bids the peace. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANABwvCEhtZ35
First to the Trojan, spent with toil, he came, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAA9g7QVkEAx
And sooth'd his sorrow for the suffer'd shame. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAFWPDJiFGxU
"What fury seiz'd my friend? The gods," said he, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAYKoMP5WJe0
"To him propitious, and averse to thee, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA7JFRxcFt9u
Have giv'n his arm superior force to thine. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAM3aIkfE2tx
'T is madness to contend with strength divine." 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA2wGBqaz9uE
The gauntlet fight thus ended, from the shore 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8J0YgY4jcM
His faithful friends unhappy Dares bore: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAMgTp4rRtlE
His mouth and nostrils pour'd a purple flood, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA66xJSiD40y
And pounded teeth came rushing with his blood. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA6Gw5QEFOTi
Faintly he stagger'd thro' the hissing throng, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAUbQu9pPFpx
And hung his head, and trail'd his legs along. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAmJd2obZKfw
The sword and casque are carried by his train; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA6sQabjtW4Y
But with his foe the palm and ox remain. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA2HsD4eRQAe
The champion, then, before Aeneas came, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA3t8nSIX7EZ
Proud of his prize, but prouder of his fame: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAeEvQuG1pkh
"O goddess-born, and you, Dardanian host, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAN34vCat5Di
Mark with attention, and forgive my boast; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8hJQFAOQ43
Learn what I was, by what remains; and know 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAfyVTrpU9Gq
From what impending fate you sav'd my foe." 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAMJGJguI772
Sternly he spoke, and then confronts the bull; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAlBgdgDF5tH
And, on his ample forehead aiming full, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAf0GbfIaWca
The deadly stroke, descending, pierc'd the skull. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA1X14IOCqTI
Down drops the beast, nor needs a second wound, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAiB7pR5AJi8
But sprawls in pangs of death, and spurns the ground. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA6gSjcSu6oU
Then, thus: "In Dares' stead I offer this. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAlMTqX6OHYK
Eryx, accept a nobler sacrifice; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA9ZKZCikdXd
Take the last gift my wither'd arms can yield: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAgtiX9u6N41
Thy gauntlets I resign, and here renounce the field." 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAhQ1ldHGaOE
This done, Aeneas orders, for the close, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAPOzrusJudB
The strife of archers with contending bows. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA2QdFMwrkws
The mast Sergesthus' shatter'd galley bore 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAR4mouBr1qF
With his own hands he raises on the shore. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAtbUXqNrioc
A flutt'ring dove upon the top they tie, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA6tmonBKzzB
The living mark at which their arrows fly. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAU74ZN2I1xU
The rival archers in a line advance, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAZD0LtEkTti
Their turn of shooting to receive from chance. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAc7XHZyMMnw
A helmet holds their names; the lots are drawn: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8raw6W2Amj
On the first scroll was read Hippocoon. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA23qS2NB8PE
The people shout. Upon the next was found 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAOZqNZFQuGR
Young Mnestheus, late with naval honors crown'd. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAQSMnvjkk0Q
The third contain'd Eurytion's noble name, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAHIWoGqjpnQ
Thy brother, Pandarus, and next in fame, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAZ95vuaVhDf
Whom Pallas urg'd the treaty to confound, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAlka6t3CseR
And send among the Greeks a feather'd wound. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAsa6SqPa7T8
Acestes in the bottom last remain'd, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAMt01g8jTbC
Whom not his age from youthful sports restrain'd. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAuCD9k4OlX9
Soon all with vigor bend their trusty bows, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAwOZ9leWwvC
And from the quiver each his arrow chose. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANACscgkBE8ld
Hippocoon's was the first: with forceful sway 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAvmcoKlUNye
It flew, and, whizzing, cut the liquid way. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAcafhK49Ut6
Fix'd in the mast the feather'd weapon stands: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA2IzJrkabag
The fearful pigeon flutters in her bands, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAmsfEwnvUeq
And the tree trembled, and the shouting cries 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8JR0tKxtGJ
Of the pleas'd people rend the vaulted skies. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANACfHtBdVpEp
Then Mnestheus to the head his arrow drove, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA6ZT63ZgBvC
With lifted eyes, and took his aim above, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA4Z0o3LcOTO
But made a glancing shot, and missed the dove; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANACfAWEB5hzH
Yet miss'd so narrow, that he cut the cord 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAD5ECGWxtiB
Which fasten'd by the foot the flitting bird. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAhMZ2x4ImMZ
The captive thus releas'd, away she flies, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8EruWV85YY
And beats with clapping wings the yielding skies. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAla9vDLDVjA
His bow already bent, Eurytion stood; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAo8r6UnbNUO
And, having first invok'd his brother god, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAz3OVp1hHwq
His winged shaft with eager haste he sped. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAv9ytBjO0KK
The fatal message reach'd her as she fled: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANApLSpMIWDvq
She leaves her life aloft; she strikes the ground, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAysLE0wlDeT
And renders back the weapon in the wound. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAwSHhHe9GfA
Acestes, grudging at his lot, remains, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA1tGz5f7l6G
Without a prize to gratify his pains. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAld4gKZS0uF
Yet, shooting upward, sends his shaft, to show 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA2vl3Tp7gen
An archer's art, and boast his twanging bow. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANARgO6LyDBlF
The feather'd arrow gave a dire portent, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAdElHly9dTX
And latter augurs judge from this event. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAsIv2MrdveK
Chaf'd by the speed, it fir'd; and, as it flew, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAQYBXTRZB3L
A trail of following flames ascending drew: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANALVR6o343on
Kindling they mount, and mark the shiny way; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAxtOrCgmAzp
Across the skies as falling meteors play, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAs53UJvJuXH
And vanish into wind, or in a blaze decay. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAEB6IT5DlOi
The Trojans and Sicilians wildly stare, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAE7uMGpHsPn
And, trembling, turn their wonder into pray'r. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANATdktJm3dtu
The Dardan prince put on a smiling face, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8pLbKCW3yR
And strain'd Acestes with a close embrace; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAbWelIyl6xt
Then, hon'ring him with gifts above the rest, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAEgURNQemKL
Turn'd the bad omen, nor his fears confess'd. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAb5DyljviiO
"The gods," said he, "this miracle have wrought, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA6mSAKoSVdJ
And order'd you the prize without the lot. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAq2xksIB1Ua
Accept this goblet, rough with figur'd gold, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAol1AAsCq8B
Which Thracian Cisseus gave my sire of old: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAD4ONJTLdeZ
This pledge of ancient amity receive, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA0lURnLCNKH
Which to my second sire I justly give." 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAUxnegIco8B
He said, and, with the trumpets' cheerful sound, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAwCcn7sY3Ni
Proclaim'd him victor, and with laurel-crown'd. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAaDoVZPV6Ux
Nor good Eurytion envied him the prize, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAD9RJHTcuwP
Tho' he transfix'd the pigeon in the skies. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAIhQy3g18iK
Who cut the line, with second gifts was grac'd; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAL1zJMankOx
The third was his whose arrow pierc'd the mast. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANABdbEt33Ll3
The chief, before the games were wholly done, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAneJlQ08rWx
Call'd Periphantes, tutor to his son, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAuJcmEGNfB0
And whisper'd thus: "With speed Ascanius find; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAAlDCfBUXDU
And, if his childish troop be ready join'd, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAts4nUreQDy
On horseback let him grace his grandsire's day, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAWLY3t4EgCO
And lead his equals arm'd in just array." 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAzSJoGhwZAH
He said; and, calling out, the cirque he clears. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAPdW36SA0bc
The crowd withdrawn, an open plain appears. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAe5wcGIx2wq
And now the noble youths, of form divine, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANADjCZdRXKTg
Advance before their fathers, in a line; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANADoDKneKxap
The riders grace the steeds; the steeds with glory shine. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAMOukbEArJp
Thus marching on in military pride, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAMpQZevM8og
Shouts of applause resound from side to side. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA3H07wZRrRk
Their casques adorn'd with laurel wreaths they wear, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA2IkBaPP3ao
Each brandishing aloft a cornel spear. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAG5gcyBosDb
Some at their backs their gilded quivers bore; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAlsC32jRdZL
Their chains of burnish'd gold hung down before. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAMitD0GAUt0
Three graceful troops they form'd upon the green; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAUtMcWmDKdW
Three graceful leaders at their head were seen; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAOdZRan1JXa
Twelve follow'd ev'ry chief, and left a space between. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANADjDP8D8LTK
The first young Priam led; a lovely boy, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAGWoe8Si3uA
Whose grandsire was th' unhappy king of Troy; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAZ6Ylg8miZb
His race in after times was known to fame, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA753MgD2OMj
New honors adding to the Latian name; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAoo8uWUFxQy
And well the royal boy his Thracian steed became. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAF9HW4e5GxR
White were the fetlocks of his feet before, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAYpJIHIevC4
And on his front a snowy star he bore. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAniPdPNGqzL
Then beauteous Atys, with Iulus bred, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANArzeXCILm3w
Of equal age, the second squadron led. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAtPuWKRlzJn
The last in order, but the first in place, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAQw797GCb4S
First in the lovely features of his face, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA5PRYnlIeJj
Rode fair Ascanius on a fiery steed, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAc8h2ySrz66
Queen Dido's gift, and of the Tyrian breed. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAIC3QSOn22W
Sure coursers for the rest the king ordains, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAu8FgNKlMBm
With golden bits adorn'd, and purple reins. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAuEGtlJiACv
The pleas'd spectators peals of shouts renew, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAlF29wV44X4
And all the parents in the children view; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA2DW02fvPtx
Their make, their motions, and their sprightly grace, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAvVVa6xNxTc
And hopes and fears alternate in their face. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAs0f8yl8RME
Th' unfledg'd commanders and their martial train 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAhK72VzHByI
First make the circuit of the sandy plain 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAghnZ8PrSpj
Around their sires, and, at th' appointed sign, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANADRnOPGa8RL
Drawn up in beauteous order, form a line. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAwLaD7hj5EW
The second signal sounds, the troop divides 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAUdKOGmoQbp
In three distinguish'd parts, with three distinguish'd guides 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAmiVtYDLHUd
Again they close, and once again disjoin; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAqxCUaT4oZl
In troop to troop oppos'd, and line to line. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA5QQHfTmXF7
They meet; they wheel; they throw their darts afar 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAHD1hisL1Yx
With harmless rage and well-dissembled war. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAspBbE7PQQE
Then in a round the mingled bodies run: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANArXccfAHY5a
Flying they follow, and pursuing shun; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA299XG9kGRL
Broken, they break; and, rallying, they renew 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAjeEoAtkcwi
In other forms the military shew. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAjJMNx5KFRu
At last, in order, undiscern'd they join, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANANqBDuB4HkP
And march together in a friendly line. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANACzRupetqRJ
And, as the Cretan labyrinth of old, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAFvv6QVAm6S
With wand'ring ways and many a winding fold, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA9cWPXx5bVH
Involv'd the weary feet, without redress, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAb1ijp0Niiw
In a round error, which denied recess; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAonETiQD9sT
So fought the Trojan boys in warlike play, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAuIzq57GoVF
Turn'd and return'd, and still a diff'rent way. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAavD7lwlXi6
Thus dolphins in the deep each other chase 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAwm0l63uwqk
In circles, when they swim around the wat'ry race. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANALJvdjtSYxX
This game, these carousels, Ascanius taught; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAQqsxJYMU1v
And, building Alba, to the Latins brought; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA4Q3yaC8FgO
Shew'd what he learn'd: the Latin sires impart 1193Please respect copyright.PENANACKrdw8MhdF
To their succeeding sons the graceful art; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAkIoxvo0YCS
From these imperial Rome receiv'd the game, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAkEGu2xLwaZ
Which Troy, the youths the Trojan troop, they name. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAUs1BPMOdEa
Thus far the sacred sports they celebrate: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAAnGsYMy0Ua
But Fortune soon resum'd her ancient hate; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAh3VU7kPTFQ
For, while they pay the dead his annual dues, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAxvlW6FHGM9
Those envied rites Saturnian Juno views; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAYO5Yv4SfRp
And sends the goddess of the various bow, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANARUprrR3r0W
To try new methods of revenge below; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAbzxiM9rX5W
Supplies the winds to wing her airy way, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAif6ZA0HT92
Where in the port secure the navy lay. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAcXDSzmMNWz
Swiftly fair Iris down her arch descends, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAKuAOc4zB6j
And, undiscern'd, her fatal voyage ends. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANALKiFvITJKV
She saw the gath'ring crowd; and, gliding thence, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAXjue57jDtO
The desart shore, and fleet without defense. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAxL0RT11K10
The Trojan matrons, on the sands alone, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAq7D66O6n4V
With sighs and tears Anchises' death bemoan; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAorWhaXWxbn
Then, turning to the sea their weeping eyes, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAGrr3yHHv68
Their pity to themselves renews their cries. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA3D3SW1lDTC
"Alas!" said one, "what oceans yet remain 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAYBXPcNEtnC
For us to sail! what labors to sustain!" 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAhumQYfeC1r
All take the word, and, with a gen'ral groan, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAI9bmTbIxxZ
Implore the gods for peace, and places of their own. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAK00Gxt4Ad0
The goddess, great in mischief, views their pains, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAjz2Ii9FFcU
And in a woman's form her heav'nly limbs restrains. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANATwRA83AYaZ
In face and shape old Beroe she became, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAEFD6mvTrfR
Doryclus' wife, a venerable dame, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANATeYF3VbBEU
Once blest with riches, and a mother's name. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAoNtkuxZpmB
Thus chang'd, amidst the crying crowd she ran, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAQuluryFJPy
Mix'd with the matrons, and these words began: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAhapYWwsY8a
"O wretched we, whom not the Grecian pow'r, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAJnQfuYvlxT
Nor flames, destroy'd, in Troy's unhappy hour! 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAehbfyze1qM
O wretched we, reserv'd by cruel fate, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA9zStJA8I10
Beyond the ruins of the sinking state! 1193Please respect copyright.PENANADfBsuqBCNu
Now sev'n revolving years are wholly run, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAyDnxfhtTtb
Since this improsp'rous voyage we begun; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAjsK0dSG285
Since, toss'd from shores to shores, from lands to lands, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAqXqjzAfoH4
Inhospitable rocks and barren sands, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAPnHFTHV5f3
Wand'ring in exile thro' the stormy sea, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAKSnUkT7oZ5
We search in vain for flying Italy. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAVtojjXgKWt
Now cast by fortune on this kindred land, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANASsVjTWOzxs
What should our rest and rising walls withstand, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAO6Pxed8wmY
Or hinder here to fix our banish'd band? 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAULKsn0j5Xn
O country lost, and gods redeem'd in vain, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANApUjbbuCSr1
If still in endless exile we remain! 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAEjpe7rUwQo
Shall we no more the Trojan walls renew, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAGQ4NGbwwLO
Or streams of some dissembled Simois view! 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA6E3aCQKFSK
Haste, join with me, th' unhappy fleet consume! 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAkWi296YEEW
Cassandra bids; and I declare her doom. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAKnN4IOizbO
In sleep I saw her; she supplied my hands 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAGHu4cADypD
(For this I more than dreamt) with flaming brands: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA63mmLVd08f
'With these,' said she, 'these wand'ring ships destroy: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANACcKcWZqXAA
These are your fatal seats, and this your Troy.' 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAtAAFOwzV2p
Time calls you now; the precious hour employ: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAzOjDdm8jUf
Slack not the good presage, while Heav'n inspires 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAKAhh3Ravxz
Our minds to dare, and gives the ready fires. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAUu2TVMqtl1
See! Neptune's altars minister their brands: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA4MXP31Hov6
The god is pleas'd; the god supplies our hands." 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAtDbyqsbheh
Then from the pile a flaming fire she drew, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAcI8YBnKh4b
And, toss'd in air, amidst the galleys threw. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAuRtl4aOxEP
Wrapp'd in amaze, the matrons wildly stare: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAuEHZ0zI1yz
Then Pyrgo, reverenc'd for her hoary hair, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANACPwfsjGTN4
Pyrgo, the nurse of Priam's num'rous race: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAs9GbbfTWT9
"No Beroe this, tho' she belies her face! 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAfhJDxnvob9
What terrors from her frowning front arise! 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAw6jwX19Rab
Behold a goddess in her ardent eyes! 1193Please respect copyright.PENANADZfU2fr68e
What rays around her heav'nly face are seen! 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAlBL4FsgtM8
Mark her majestic voice, and more than mortal mien! 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAtFRw1wicr2
Beroe but now I left, whom, pin'd with pain, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAbtYV0Ntlw9
Her age and anguish from these rites detain," 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAwibvnJc1VU
She said. The matrons, seiz'd with new amaze, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAWYnVxq8dhr
Roll their malignant eyes, and on the navy gaze. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAvaNXb6fbAU
They fear, and hope, and neither part obey: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAOjEP2TVHgj
They hope the fated land, but fear the fatal way. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA5JMUJI4T8Q
The goddess, having done her task below, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANABJIRTI3iXy
Mounts up on equal wings, and bends her painted bow. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAiLDJ4rz0UK
Struck with the sight, and seiz'd with rage divine, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAeAWyq8kkAH
The matrons prosecute their mad design: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAe7GBjNTchW
They shriek aloud; they snatch, with impious hands, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAZy02UIJt9K
The food of altars; fires and flaming brands. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAE6NQc0rbDL
Green boughs and saplings, mingled in their haste, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA0RKmeZC1Lp
And smoking torches, on the ships they cast. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA6b8zw813YM
The flame, unstopp'd at first, more fury gains, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA2BzUKbG2qd
And Vulcan rides at large with loosen'd reins: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA3tlodKzrsY
Triumphant to the painted sterns he soars, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAFYMkVLSMEy
And seizes, in this way, the banks and crackling oars. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANARyIWUjDhxf
Eumelus was the first the news to bear, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANApsLD9ifUmV
While yet they crowd the rural theater. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAKiHcCbwah0
Then, what they hear, is witness'd by their eyes: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAhYzrhBkSsl
A storm of sparkles and of flames arise. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANArrnQBT3uia
Ascanius took th' alarm, while yet he led 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAVKpCnaFXsi
His early warriors on his prancing steed, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA0iOe9lXch6
And, spurring on, his equals soon o'erpass'd; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANABpjpTCUdIF
Nor could his frighted friends reclaim his haste. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAOKZ76ut1pe
Soon as the royal youth appear'd in view, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAD3zoKWji22
He sent his voice before him as he flew: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAhq2oTqHRPD
"What madness moves you, matrons, to destroy 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAO3nc62BrGi
The last remainders of unhappy Troy! 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAPW1fB1Q4uG
Not hostile fleets, but your own hopes, you burn, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAC7lYAKdgOq
And on your friends your fatal fury turn. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAbmEsmB2T1T
Behold your own Ascanius!" While he said, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAozVhuqGZ8X
He drew his glitt'ring helmet from his head, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAuoOMyR3hTn
In which the youths to sportful arms he led. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANANircuDlFvy
By this, Aeneas and his train appear; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAF7CoY0VnmS
And now the women, seiz'd with shame and fear, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAslYBMSg7wv
Dispers'd, to woods and caverns take their flight, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAZbBmAtWOYS
Abhor their actions, and avoid the light; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAuMpXQjBuqa
Their friends acknowledge, and their error find, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAQ8ozLqHBxx
And shake the goddess from their alter'd mind. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAy0ZWhszlGp
Not so the raging fires their fury cease, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAfxPW1mjNrn
But, lurking in the seams, with seeming peace, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAqRIyFHa0Yi
Work on their way amid the smold'ring tow, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAacGsmM9ec4
Sure in destruction, but in motion slow. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAYEpfmWC16N
The silent plague thro' the green timber eats, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAiUOe3ux10y
And vomits out a tardy flame by fits. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAjsp3NxLCNO
Down to the keels, and upward to the sails, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAzyEe3uf4vp
The fire descends, or mounts, but still prevails; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAmvxy9YcqP1
Nor buckets pour'd, nor strength of human hand, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANANkwThmvVzZ
Can the victorious element withstand. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAYDijjomeuM
The pious hero rends his robe, and throws 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA3taeJNUQYC
To heav'n his hands, and with his hands his vows. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA9eabT0cy98
"O Jove," he cried, "if pray'rs can yet have place; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAl7ewUux7tP
If thou abhorr'st not all the Dardan race; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA6gX3fe6khO
If any spark of pity still remain; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAuMiHM3VPaP
If gods are gods, and not invok'd in vain; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAg8EagAsITJ
Yet spare the relics of the Trojan train! 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA4JLSW576PI
Yet from the flames our burning vessels free, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANATQGUSQQIbV
Or let thy fury fall alone on me! 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAO4vLts4hdg
At this devoted head thy thunder throw, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAJ4tU9ILrix
And send the willing sacrifice below!" 1193Please respect copyright.PENANASp0tzbb46m
Scarce had he said, when southern storms arise: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAuXXAgcKROP
From pole to pole the forky lightning flies; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA64zZoX4o5j
Loud rattling shakes the mountains and the plain; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAvdCu84hT3U
Heav'n bellies downward, and descends in rain. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAyMLN8JgEcH
Whole sheets of water from the clouds are sent, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAPnsShDxcY1
Which, hissing thro' the planks, the flames prevent, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAZOoujfxfhc
And stop the fiery pest. Four ships alone 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAkS6OBkSwN3
Burn to the waist, and for the fleet atone. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA2Cam42weQg
But doubtful thoughts the hero's heart divide; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAt3x86Z4i9e
If he should still in Sicily reside, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAFyYsQ7FkiJ
Forgetful of his fates, or tempt the main, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAx2qjCC1awW
In hope the promis'd Italy to gain. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANATetJqoz7ew
Then Nautes, old and wise, to whom alone 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAFFxFEwIkgD
The will of Heav'n by Pallas was foreshown; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAlDH3NFnUAD
Vers'd in portents, experienc'd, and inspir'd 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAQ7wTR8ANgj
To tell events, and what the fates requir'd; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAdFclVLP6Yy
Thus while he stood, to neither part inclin'd, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAEBjglgYdsf
With cheerful words reliev'd his lab'ring mind: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAxOq2yqZ8yV
"O goddess-born, resign'd in ev'ry state, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAZViEzmMB34
With patience bear, with prudence push your fate. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAjsvXKaOx53
By suff'ring well, our Fortune we subdue; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAtKlNUvPklO
Fly when she frowns, and, when she calls, pursue. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA04rb8WxfC7
Your friend Acestes is of Trojan kind; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAPxmGQM3VBp
To him disclose the secrets of your mind: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAivpKKZOMaM
Trust in his hands your old and useless train; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAxt6f7GlyEY
Too num'rous for the ships which yet remain: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAAMJeQp9NIJ
The feeble, old, indulgent of their ease, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANABbT1gmKt0z
The dames who dread the dangers of the seas, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAlQlBV25PNf
With all the dastard crew, who dare not stand 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAzP6kjTVWS7
The shock of battle with your foes by land. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAsoZ2KhwkSD
Here you may build a common town for all, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAs5bfuMg7D1
And, from Acestes' name, Acesta call." 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAbGx8aQ9dsx
The reasons, with his friend's experience join'd, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAMpyZJfEJTJ
Encourag'd much, but more disturb'd his mind. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAipi1kwsp7W
'T was dead of night; when to his slumb'ring eyes 1193Please respect copyright.PENANATkJI2kgc54
His father's shade descended from the skies, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA5LOmmJ9FIF
And thus he spoke: "O more than vital breath, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAC5MzZC6YFC
Lov'd while I liv'd, and dear ev'n after death; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAhVZFuDZulP
O son, in various toils and troubles toss'd, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAd17Lc7ktQX
The King of Heav'n employs my careful ghost 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAm28YcSr4DB
On his commands: the god, who sav'd from fire 1193Please respect copyright.PENANARRVCCWcJXu
Your flaming fleet, and heard your just desire. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAag1Jbcux94
The wholesome counsel of your friend receive, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANARLOSMdz6nE
And here the coward train and woman leave: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAigKacvKvsy
The chosen youth, and those who nobly dare, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAPyuzxBnOKJ
Transport, to tempt the dangers of the war. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAak6QQjkSBm
The stern Italians will their courage try; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAa8Xs3MAVUp
Rough are their manners, and their minds are high. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANArxnjNeF1Vs
But first to Pluto's palace you shall go, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAKF6d6YXiun
And seek my shade among the blest below: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAgAcjNA48Hb
For not with impious ghosts my soul remains, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAvuDeduCYfX
Nor suffers with the damn'd perpetual pains, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAKpiJxasXm4
But breathes the living air of soft Elysian plains. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAvyWhn622rP
The chaste Sibylla shall your steps convey, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAuHrylwIDQJ
And blood of offer'd victims free the way. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANANzXybdpg6H
There shall you know what realms the gods assign, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA5nXP1l9Y0W
And learn the fates and fortunes of your line. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANADPZxP3UAtP
But now, farewell! I vanish with the night, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAs6GQibkrgv
And feel the blast of heav'n's approaching light." 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAEIXXrHyXHN
He said, and mix'd with shades, and took his airy flight. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAv9EQKMKjQy
"Whither so fast?" the filial duty cried; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAJwVRkejcD4
"And why, ah why, the wish'd embrace denied?" 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA4zpXrIdclu
He said, and rose; as holy zeal inspires, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAIyDH1mnbwS
He rakes hot embers, and renews the fires; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAVaLhyU8FQm
His country gods and Vesta then adores 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAfLvvlbw92Z
With cakes and incense, and their aid implores. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAnT1xIQZsl8
Next, for his friends and royal host he sent, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAqeDci5VRjL
Reveal'd his vision, and the gods' intent, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAP27Skymv1f
With his own purpose. All, without delay, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAWt8BGO5Yxt
The will of Jove, and his desires obey. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAgfkS3AzyAH
They list with women each degenerate name, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAAkUPzFMWkL
Who dares not hazard life for future fame. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAscS494Mn7m
These they cashier: the brave remaining few, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAd01DNz4cjA
Oars, banks, and cables, half consum'd, renew. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAROKvpF39Ux
The prince designs a city with the plow; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAdfOgVogFlY
The lots their sev'ral tenements allow. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAVWBSz9NLVI
This part is nam'd from Ilium, that from Troy, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAuMmc8nbNrS
And the new king ascends the throne with joy; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAKkwHSm7qZE
A chosen senate from the people draws; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAB7OmcWHLZK
Appoints the judges, and ordains the laws. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAZJwbhHvl1K
Then, on the top of Eryx, they begin 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAOFxgIQXrtJ
A rising temple to the Paphian queen. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAuMkA205HZd
Anchises, last, is honor'd as a god; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAogz91siwrJ
A priest is added, annual gifts bestow'd, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANATRvSRvmcwD
And groves are planted round his blest abode. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAhHg2mF9q2U
Nine days they pass in feasts, their temples crown'd; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAVmDXoALRrO
And fumes of incense in the fanes abound. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAAdLS14vHj9
Then from the south arose a gentle breeze 1193Please respect copyright.PENANApKAZ8oB1PJ
That curl'd the smoothness of the glassy seas; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANABWB8u6P7Wy
The rising winds a ruffling gale afford, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAwKGhCwKpLi
And call the merry mariners aboard. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAbCpeC8X7uv
Now loud laments along the shores resound, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA0pekBunQvy
Of parting friends in close embraces bound. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA3HBbN59cPs
The trembling women, the degenerate train, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAbYm1PiwgSZ
Who shunn'd the frightful dangers of the main, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8XCydqABfy
Ev'n those desire to sail, and take their share 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8XaioEVN95
Of the rough passage and the promis'd war: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANACPc0yJJK7y
Whom good Aeneas cheers, and recommends 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAM0FIrLuDG9
To their new master's care his fearful friends. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA9OkJUqWtlk
On Eryx's altars three fat calves he lays; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA9SUmIdU0hc
A lamb new-fallen to the stormy seas; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAdlSbSHQe3o
Then slips his haulsers, and his anchors weighs. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAV1ShNoVvhe
High on the deck the godlike hero stands, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAsVuNY0TdhJ
With olive crown'd, a charger in his hands; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA9H5XwmajJW
Then cast the reeking entrails in the brine, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA9Ivm7zwAu2
And pour'd the sacrifice of purple wine. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA0nZKmUL1zN
Fresh gales arise; with equal strokes they vie, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAvmJ6BjSUhx
And brush the buxom seas, and o'er the billows fly. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANARLflE7RMGj
Meantime the mother goddess, full of fears, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8joywVldeg
To Neptune thus address'd, with tender tears: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANADWxGZKMgT5
"The pride of Jove's imperious queen, the rage, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAx32fboO0bC
The malice which no suff'rings can assuage, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANALVyCu7ApPd
Compel me to these pray'rs; since neither fate, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAP0hI5t7rTX
Nor time, nor pity, can remove her hate: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANACPeSW7o7LF
Ev'n Jove is thwarted by his haughty wife; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA1rgCZYiq8Z
Still vanquish'd, yet she still renews the strife. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAks1fEf2aOz
As if 't were little to consume the town 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAcONTsQYq4A
Which aw'd the world, and wore th' imperial crown, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAgWqnna1DkX
She prosecutes the ghost of Troy with pains, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAaZUrYb7PS3
And gnaws, ev'n to the bones, the last remains. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA4XcFWTtlzc
Let her the causes of her hatred tell; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAvL4tJHK3rB
But you can witness its effects too well. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANALECOaRQvTB
You saw the storm she rais'd on Libyan floods, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAdoUuHYBtMj
That mix'd the mounting billows with the clouds; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAhMWC3gkOZp
When, bribing Aeolus, she shook the main, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA3iu3ldKYIZ
And mov'd rebellion in your wat'ry reign. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAI1SnXNxVH6
With fury she possess'd the Dardan dames, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAUhDjYkeoJn
To burn their fleet with execrable flames, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAt7DXW3JtNe
And forc'd Aeneas, when his ships were lost, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA6sFlZ0RFrm
To leave his foll'wers on a foreign coast. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAalHq97JVB6
For what remains, your godhead I implore, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAniawSSqNPe
And trust my son to your protecting pow'r. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANALwYsQCUa00
If neither Jove's nor Fate's decree withstand, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAPYupgW2Vsz
Secure his passage to the Latian land." 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAA4PzNq2u5O
Then thus the mighty Ruler of the Main: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAhpvxH5UgyK
"What may not Venus hope from Neptune's reign? 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAiZnYCu5xVF
My kingdom claims your birth; my late defense 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAsOA177SKSK
Of your indanger'd fleet may claim your confidence. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAAoyfobO4nI
Nor less by land than sea my deeds declare 1193Please respect copyright.PENANALVRXusjlCz
How much your lov'd Aeneas is my care. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA3Qq0Xp2UnS
Thee, Xanthus, and thee, Simois, I attest. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAUJ8SGVmUQJ
Your Trojan troops when proud Achilles press'd, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA184LYdIABV
And drove before him headlong on the plain, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANApxdqEAKg9U
And dash'd against the walls the trembling train; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAMWcu8scB9L
When floods were fill'd with bodies of the slain; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAtGBZqAX7RC
When crimson Xanthus, doubtful of his way, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAL0OyBEbBww
Stood up on ridges to behold the sea; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAENEQ3FEQSI
(New heaps came tumbling in, and chok'd his way;) 1193Please respect copyright.PENANASgeKZPtrmK
When your Aeneas fought, but fought with odds 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAvQpXSyD6jg
Of force unequal, and unequal gods; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAcrJG6nmjBH
I spread a cloud before the victor's sight, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANARiX6XtNBFl
Sustain'd the vanquish'd, and secur'd his flight; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAmmyGRoE2YX
Ev'n then secur'd him, when I sought with joy 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAvAfFhHXzA8
The vow'd destruction of ungrateful Troy. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAjFWMu7Cx4O
My will's the same: fair goddess, fear no more, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAyxZvVL9Wgm
Your fleet shall safely gain the Latian shore; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAHzVvwmBBC2
Their lives are giv'n; one destin'd head alone 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAyeRp98ZzhM
Shall perish, and for multitudes atone." 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAYtJkJKVaoD
Thus having arm'd with hopes her anxious mind, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANATwjDyvU7hI
His finny team Saturnian Neptune join'd, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAGV8Jaii1Uh
Then adds the foamy bridle to their jaws, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAo8kRErvzmq
And to the loosen'd reins permits the laws. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAlkRcXYdhpZ
High on the waves his azure car he guides; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAHtzNfwWiZT
Its axles thunder, and the sea subsides, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAvOryQHa5W7
And the smooth ocean rolls her silent tides. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAN9AbbwciwA
The tempests fly before their father's face, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA5OaAE72sDu
Trains of inferior gods his triumph grace, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAkaiuxOM1EW
And monster whales before their master play, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANACbfkMXyBse
And choirs of Tritons crowd the wat'ry way. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA5KbNVALjZj
The marshal'd pow'rs in equal troops divide 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA05NbDRkDSY
To right and left; the gods his better side 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAqGKLUnm6KM
Inclose, and on the worse the Nymphs and Nereids ride. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAmAFlcfEzrE
Now smiling hope, with sweet vicissitude, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANApxyomnoaJH
Within the hero's mind his joys renew'd. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAFX4ZobZgqB
He calls to raise the masts, the sheets display; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAJA4hQr1mYp
The cheerful crew with diligence obey; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANARxLPCQl2cS
They scud before the wind, and sail in open sea. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAox6cS5KWGS
Ahead of all the master pilot steers; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA4Tuf52SFI9
And, as he leads, the following navy veers. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAaOq9foKxYb
The steeds of Night had travel'd half the sky, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAfic6PG1rDi
The drowsy rowers on their benches lie, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANADJeGP9BZ8s
When the soft God of Sleep, with easy flight, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAcLeW3vSRuB
Descends, and draws behind a trail of light. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA2LftQ1LGzy
Thou, Palinurus, art his destin'd prey; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA8ooYuT6hup
To thee alone he takes his fatal way. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA3A9aJ1shXx
Dire dreams to thee, and iron sleep, he bears; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANATt5nNohDU6
And, lighting on thy prow, the form of Phorbas wears. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAjZmeRo7MNP
Then thus the traitor god began his tale: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAWmc0pvBCA2
"The winds, my friend, inspire a pleasing gale; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAS2pnJnCfsR
The ships, without thy care, securely sail. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAJhxT9wq04h
Now steal an hour of sweet repose; and I 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA9AS5oDd7Ip
Will take the rudder and thy room supply." 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAg6Nble1EjD
To whom the yawning pilot, half asleep: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAE8fJHsmS99
"Me dost thou bid to trust the treach'rous deep, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAc1ySd58U2p
The harlot smiles of her dissembling face, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA3FwzFeBX61
And to her faith commit the Trojan race? 1193Please respect copyright.PENANATOKuojcb7g
Shall I believe the Siren South again, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAlZ4u5ILfmk
And, oft betray'd, not know the monster main?" 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAqglHBp95l0
He said: his fasten'd hands the rudder keep, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA060gCViXoL
And, fix'd on heav'n, his eyes repel invading sleep. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAUg0QxbVd7F
The god was wroth, and at his temples threw 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA221dZiMZwh
A branch in Lethe dipp'd, and drunk with Stygian dew: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAX8MxjvVEWA
The pilot, vanquish'd by the pow'r divine, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAqsh5TvmOB1
Soon clos'd his swimming eyes, and lay supine. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAftOHkLt5GX
Scarce were his limbs extended at their length, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAFRRTwV3fWQ
The god, insulting with superior strength, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAL16gRqHMpC
Fell heavy on him, plung'd him in the sea, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAli0rTp08S0
And, with the stern, the rudder tore away. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAbpv1kiiled
Headlong he fell, and, struggling in the main, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAUYEOVtZ9VU
Cried out for helping hands, but cried in vain. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAXUQFHlBWkB
The victor daemon mounts obscure in air, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANALcxJ0TUhbP
While the ship sails without the pilot's care. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAWikoVMkEyz
On Neptune's faith the floating fleet relies; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAishv1XxnMV
But what the man forsook, the god supplies, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAWbNsFlRoRC
And o'er the dang'rous deep secure the navy flies; 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAIs4DkrZh4t
Glides by the Sirens' cliffs, a shelfy coast, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAkddaDZqPTo
Long infamous for ships and sailors lost, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAsgZfx5UxEY
And white with bones. Th' impetuous ocean roars, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANADflvjTeTv9
And rocks rebellow from the sounding shores. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANATuS5jEoOyy
The watchful hero felt the knocks, and found 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAEekArxFmfe
The tossing vessel sail'd on shoaly ground. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAPgzlItMWZy
Sure of his pilot's loss, he takes himself 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAS5bKAyYTyr
The helm, and steers aloof, and shuns the shelf. 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAx30srlT4Pr
Inly he griev'd, and, groaning from the breast, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAj1HfKXbUrH
Deplor'd his death; and thus his pain express'd: 1193Please respect copyright.PENANA9bBGnj9Tla
"For faith repos'd on seas, and on the flatt'ring sky, 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAAsCv1bC63p
Thy naked corpse is doom'd on shores unknown to lie." 1193Please respect copyright.PENANAHTsMjzrDyO
