Meantime the Trojan cuts his wat'ry way, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANApocvAWgf9b
Fix'd on his voyage, thro' the curling sea; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAViqRQzRm4X
Then, casting back his eyes, with dire amaze, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANARVBZGEdifO
Sees on the Punic shore the mounting blaze. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANACM1cERGOz9
The cause unknown; yet his presaging mind 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAzSLg6dixVM
The fate of Dido from the fire divin'd; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAvtjbjJo8EP
He knew the stormy souls of womankind, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAcm9XSy35Vk
What secret springs their eager passions move, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAFNxvp5bLqC
How capable of death for injur'd love. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAAqfZi6bb0W
Dire auguries from hence the Trojans draw; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAhVazmXlSRD
Till neither fires nor shining shores they saw. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAeTMeWwbKoM
Now seas and skies their prospect only bound; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA3fyN0xmZiX
An empty space above, a floating field around. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAB3JFuVzmdm
But soon the heav'ns with shadows were o'erspread; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA119GvrM7RH
A swelling cloud hung hov'ring o'er their head: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAuzmPCwFFzi
Livid it look'd, the threat'ning of a storm: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAZjnid1DASa
Then night and horror ocean's face deform. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAZqmxvdB0YF
The pilot, Palinurus, cried aloud: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA4Gequ4kGfH
"What gusts of weather from that gath'ring cloud 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAFfg8ilmc11
My thoughts presage! Ere yet the tempest roars, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAfs4x1jVhEf
Stand to your tackle, mates, and stretch your oars; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA1fXHPag062
Contract your swelling sails, and luff to wind." 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAAD5diQsRWI
The frighted crew perform the task assign'd. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAvcKdmPKxLm
Then, to his fearless chief: "Not Heav'n," said he, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAahxGb2q99R
"Tho' Jove himself should promise Italy, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA2PKrbi2ILk
Can stem the torrent of this raging sea. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAujhlrQFenk
Mark how the shifting winds from west arise, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAxMilfoksMj
And what collected night involves the skies! 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAOOQ8ca4dYQ
Nor can our shaken vessels live at sea, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANApW6lVlYzNL
Much less against the tempest force their way. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAbFWbETiiJN
'T is fate diverts our course, and fate we must obey. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAPT4exoUqqP
Not far from hence, if I observ'd aright 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAuWz1AeFDVU
The southing of the stars, and polar light, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA9Q5UlgycYB
Sicilia lies, whose hospitable shores 1297Please respect copyright.PENANArqE6f2Mmxj
In safety we may reach with struggling oars." 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAVVztZrUHNG
Aeneas then replied: "Too sure I find 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA9vSYERTKLY
We strive in vain against the seas and wind: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAxMLDI8OcFw
Now shift your sails; what place can please me more 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAN1HQuTZneC
Than what you promise, the Sicilian shore, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAkNJFtdsW2e
Whose hallow'd earth Anchises' bones contains, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAojwvJT0ZIV
And where a prince of Trojan lineage reigns?" 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAWi7PNRNSTZ
The course resolv'd, before the western wind 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAwmo153wHjQ
They scud amain, and make the port assign'd. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAENwxNcYsIe
Meantime Acestes, from a lofty stand, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA7VU1dGkhL6
Beheld the fleet descending on the land; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAJn8njbYnkJ
And, not unmindful of his ancient race, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAxnAOiViqJd
Down from the cliff he ran with eager pace, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA0D6BcVqNU9
And held the hero in a strict embrace. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAKS6u5xoHyT
Of a rough Libyan bear the spoils he wore, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAxGQcWh9iyh
And either hand a pointed jav'lin bore. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAVQUuv8JPmF
His mother was a dame of Dardan blood; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA4WtN1nWhrZ
His sire Crinisus, a Sicilian flood. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAdTVwZlXLdi
He welcomes his returning friends ashore 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAxKvAzN0pN6
With plenteous country cates and homely store. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAeja7D1pf17
Now, when the following morn had chas'd away 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA8Lv2aZHXFe
The flying stars, and light restor'd the day, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANALs5ZYgzVCi
Aeneas call'd the Trojan troops around, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAlMfhcw2ogq
And thus bespoke them from a rising ground: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAuiGQ51vWL8
"Offspring of heav'n, divine Dardanian race! 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAhUxAUVTmPI
The sun, revolving thro' th' ethereal space, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAQXXhmK71Fg
The shining circle of the year has fill'd, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA1QRauGPH5o
Since first this isle my father's ashes held: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAZmp1xRERzj
And now the rising day renews the year; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAFfqAdQO6tp
A day for ever sad, for ever dear. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANACaX2uj1oIa
This would I celebrate with annual games, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAvjzMsLZxoq
With gifts on altars pil'd, and holy flames, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA43h9ot8iaK
Tho' banish'd to Gaetulia's barren sands, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAmAQCZXk9Gd
Caught on the Grecian seas, or hostile lands: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANApu1cPBdY4r
But since this happy storm our fleet has driv'n 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAdukzKwYHen
(Not, as I deem, without the will of Heav'n) 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAPpgNxH8ia8
Upon these friendly shores and flow'ry plains, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAGxAv6kEAvb
Which hide Anchises and his blest remains, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAxhD4ObIcTg
Let us with joy perform his honors due, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAyDVO5VIpG2
And pray for prosp'rous winds, our voyage to renew; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAU7PjNzyjwM
Pray, that in towns and temples of our own, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAFqPdFDMVJn
The name of great Anchises may be known, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAoXBrRqsR7V
And yearly games may spread the gods' renown. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAisVjJtFAdq
Our sports Acestes, of the Trojan race, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAG2nrJwii5O
With royal gifts ordain'd, is pleas'd to grace: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANApA5wFd9dlu
Two steers on ev'ry ship the king bestows; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA9fkxjeu8Xf
His gods and ours shall share your equal vows. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAKYWLExVotG
Besides, if, nine days hence, the rosy morn 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAd8p5UmNf3I
Shall with unclouded light the skies adorn, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAaVdiDdTr2R
That day with solemn sports I mean to grace: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAoHSFbgUfNd
Light galleys on the seas shall run a wat'ry race; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANABV78VuIlEO
Some shall in swiftness for the goal contend, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA0yoF5gpPtK
And others try the twanging bow to bend; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAy8b5plMKMj
The strong, with iron gauntlets arm'd, shall stand 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAqR270uR6Ud
Oppos'd in combat on the yellow sand. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA8fLf2nzvzw
Let all be present at the games prepar'd, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANADL3FSQUnv9
And joyful victors wait the just reward. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAy2M77KFPoG
But now assist the rites, with garlands crown'd." 1297Please respect copyright.PENANABZAWJqQBm3
He said, and first his brows with myrtle bound. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA3xzEd5IVbF
Then Helymus, by his example led, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAsE76ohV9Hh
And old Acestes, each adorn'd his head; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAUnxoHntJBv
Thus young Ascanius, with a sprightly grace, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA8s28EzCzBU
His temples tied, and all the Trojan race. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAMvIuaGnqIp
Aeneas then advanc'd amidst the train, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANACx0SuB6P12
By thousands follow'd thro' the flow'ry plain, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAHfLDh53cyx
To great Anchises' tomb; which when he found, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAZ6WPZSj5M1
He pour'd to Bacchus, on the hallow'd ground, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAvfSEtYtWwR
Two bowls of sparkling wine, of milk two more, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAzDGIADnUTz
And two (from offer'd bulls) of purple gore, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAnUyoA0Chky
With roses then the sepulcher he strow'd 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAyNe7WSMAGL
And thus his father's ghost bespoke aloud: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAy8Nxy8HkMo
"Hail, O ye holy manes! hail again, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA7XwxIfCtXH
Paternal ashes, now review'd in vain! 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA5zlTGvUXeC
The gods permitted not, that you, with me, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAvTwMyfQAN6
Should reach the promis'd shores of Italy, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAx1RrPOxJj1
Or Tiber's flood, what flood soe'er it be." 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA2JieDsIj41
Scarce had he finish'd, when, with speckled pride, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAuQJnaypwO4
A serpent from the tomb began to glide; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAbNW4lk4FyI
His hugy bulk on sev'n high volumes roll'd; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAV6fGUpUryW
Blue was his breadth of back, but streak'd with scaly gold: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAI8425AvrU2
Thus riding on his curls, he seem'd to pass 1297Please respect copyright.PENANANLR67PKTbl
A rolling fire along, and singe the grass. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANACskdX1ighZ
More various colors thro' his body run, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAeciatfjqJ1
Than Iris when her bow imbibes the sun. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAaxSmiMObOE
Betwixt the rising altars, and around, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAq6kUgGByjI
The sacred monster shot along the ground; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAF7TBL7iDjL
With harmless play amidst the bowls he pass'd, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAB39jbYNjec
And with his lolling tongue assay'd the taste: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAsGxfi8kbWo
Thus fed with holy food, the wondrous guest 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA5zXJwacgJM
Within the hollow tomb retir'd to rest. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAzew89M8A3o
The pious prince, surpris'd at what he view'd, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAOYXZaVfojZ
The fun'ral honors with more zeal renew'd, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAIZdDn09uX4
Doubtful if this place's genius were, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAHahxrGZj7f
Or guardian of his father's sepulcher. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAnigFc1vCG0
Five sheep, according to the rites, he slew; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAL5dsuo25DE
As many swine, and steers of sable hue; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAaMl3CLe0VS
New gen'rous wine he from the goblets pour'd. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA4wGF0GxY0m
And call'd his father's ghost, from hell restor'd. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANADbXpeOnsy5
The glad attendants in long order come, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANASLBBG62YLe
Off'ring their gifts at great Anchises' tomb: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAVC1feTQenK
Some add more oxen: some divide the spoil; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANATV0Sxd7NgJ
Some place the chargers on the grassy soil; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAeHkiuWS1ga
Some blow the fires, and off entrails broil. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAXgBRSV7027
Now came the day desir'd. The skies were bright 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAXVJd3M04Xa
With rosy luster of the rising light: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA3mXYtsowCx
The bord'ring people, rous'd by sounding fame 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA9cd9lG7oCU
Of Trojan feasts and great Acestes' name, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA5e6SuhkJJH
The crowded shore with acclamations fill, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAO4u3y8i3SE
Part to behold, and part to prove their skill. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAXscgWxQrxE
And first the gifts in public view they place, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA0kJqaXnGdP
Green laurel wreaths, and palm, the victors' grace: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA6q3JtY6xSY
Within the circle, arms and tripods lie, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAHE3mBn5XCH
Ingots of gold and silver, heap'd on high, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAOhxquzKy0T
And vests embroider'd, of the Tyrian dye. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANArjOBse5wgh
The trumpet's clangor then the feast proclaims, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAlPGrCyUHLj
And all prepare for their appointed games. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAdgTipZXwKy
Four galleys first, which equal rowers bear, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAJsA1twJQ7h
Advancing, in the wat'ry lists appear. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAN2v76MK1Sj
The speedy Dolphin, that outstrips the wind, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAqfIGQWamKV
Bore Mnestheus, author of the Memmian kind: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANArTpXTYDZX6
Gyas the vast Chimaera's bulk commands, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAPPLsJ4C55d
Which rising, like a tow'ring city stands; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAw4qgbLEzk4
Three Trojans tug at ev'ry lab'ring oar; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAqCWLOufCPu
Three banks in three degrees the sailors bore; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAGk9UJ2WFiR
Beneath their sturdy strokes the billows roar. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANALRF8hvTj2g
Sergesthus, who began the Sergian race, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAwDvbAml5tJ
In the great Centaur took the leading place; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAFkGKcvsjYd
Cloanthus on the sea-green Scylla stood, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANArYaxXapzxA
From whom Cluentius draws his Trojan blood. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAdRVfkaNmts
Far in the sea, against the foaming shore, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANALHictMlmc3
There stands a rock: the raging billows roar 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAWowVlP50go
Above his head in storms; but, when 't is clear, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAbLGoLvUepY
Uncurl their ridgy backs, and at his foot appear. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAnPg9ypFIaI
In peace below the gentle waters run; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAO631NnfozX
The cormorants above lie basking in the sun. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAdvU73sVQSD
On this the hero fix'd an oak in sight, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAqbNGUBNI0G
The mark to guide the mariners aright. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA5sCDGa3ign
To bear with this, the seamen stretch their oars; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAJAXzi735YB
Then round the rock they steer, and seek the former shores. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA6QD1nSgb29
The lots decide their place. Above the rest, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAs8LBPleXdN
Each leader shining in his Tyrian vest; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAlw337lnQnd
The common crew with wreaths of poplar boughs 1297Please respect copyright.PENANApDQEa7S19i
Their temples crown, and shade their sweaty brows: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA5EPD2CY4du
Besmear'd with oil, their naked shoulders shine. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANATipxLZayJB
All take their seats, and wait the sounding sign: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAAr8DCIt6uK
They gripe their oars; and ev'ry panting breast 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAXijxPKxh1g
Is rais'd by turns with hope, by turns with fear depress'd. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAHqEJKeqFOp
The clangor of the trumpet gives the sign; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA0SbQqCyhYf
At once they start, advancing in a line: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAwrrnx7kzum
With shouts the sailors rend the starry skies; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAi3PkRF3V2S
Lash'd with their oars, the smoky billows rise; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA6a2OeDrMl8
Sparkles the briny main, and the vex'd ocean fries. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAhp6jhYleVw
Exact in time, with equal strokes they row: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAiumGPx3PaU
At once the brushing oars and brazen prow 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAFLw6NwlSb0
Dash up the sandy waves, and ope the depths below. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAvzMVgtnkqE
Not fiery coursers, in a chariot race, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAmMR1lNj3bq
Invade the field with half so swift a pace; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAhJhaOfgf28
Not the fierce driver with more fury lends 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAMQfRyjeYmE
The sounding lash, and, ere the stroke descends, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAMfhPU3yv24
Low to the wheels his pliant body bends. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAD0yIu3G49C
The partial crowd their hopes and fears divide, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAWfrECKy09j
And aid with eager shouts the favor'd side. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAVdHoIpSRqo
Cries, murmurs, clamors, with a mixing sound, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAopQPopbezF
From woods to woods, from hills to hills rebound. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAiUVPbOxXi6
Amidst the loud applauses of the shore, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAhTjozta6UL
Gyas outstripp'd the rest, and sprung before: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANARADkDK6Ja4
Cloanthus, better mann'd, pursued him fast, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA4pzeJmNUjc
But his o'er-masted galley check'd his haste. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA2Y8bnfDfvo
The Centaur and the Dolphin brush the brine 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA48aS3O6pa5
With equal oars, advancing in a line; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAe5hymCIuql
And now the mighty Centaur seems to lead, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAS1PKeMPevt
And now the speedy Dolphin gets ahead; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAj43xZh0aRT
Now board to board the rival vessels row, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAPu3zzLuSsR
The billows lave the skies, and ocean groans below. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAKX9dtVPOOD
They reach'd the mark. Proud Gyas and his train 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA80iWc3cRSY
In triumph rode, the victors of the main; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAu3WjVOMN1Y
But, steering round, he charg'd his pilot stand 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAo1IRG9e4a2
More close to shore, and skim along the sand- 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAW9ANkUF4vx
"Let others bear to sea!" Menoetes heard; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAkHU1StBGGG
But secret shelves too cautiously he fear'd, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA6x11MZ01sA
And, fearing, sought the deep; and still aloof he steer'd. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAIbpDlxDU9Q
With louder cries the captain call'd again: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAxH8qqNFoKV
"Bear to the rocky shore, and shun the main." 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAjpHED0zT9t
He spoke, and, speaking, at his stern he saw 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA8oMiyKzuXY
The bold Cloanthus near the shelvings draw. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAkUwwTWjHBf
Betwixt the mark and him the Scylla stood, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAAGfnYYHxCN
And in a closer compass plow'd the flood. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAKYvGSCE0vT
He pass'd the mark; and, wheeling, got before: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAk4lsRWgkWB
Gyas blasphem'd the gods, devoutly swore, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANADNv52T9i8E
Cried out for anger, and his hair he tore. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAuNYfnaLpWY
Mindless of others' lives (so high was grown 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAtuoGHPP65P
His rising rage) and careless of his own, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAw1HnpK8hGK
The trembling dotard to the deck he drew; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAcqU7Bspe1k
Then hoisted up, and overboard he threw: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAPhYvEyH7Zd
This done, he seiz'd the helm; his fellows cheer'd, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANALE95Sn55LI
Turn'd short upon the shelfs, and madly steer'd. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAXZvImE6xEK
Hardly his head the plunging pilot rears, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAtexXUhFn2B
Clogg'd with his clothes, and cumber'd with his years: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANALJZ8pyb2OD
Now dropping wet, he climbs the cliff with pain. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAFway9OYuqz
The crowd, that saw him fall and float again, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAd8eRQsBVcQ
Shout from the distant shore; and loudly laugh'd, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANApMGBX2GgAj
To see his heaving breast disgorge the briny draught. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAmnTs4U6C3e
The following Centaur, and the Dolphin's crew, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAUxOqMOot0F
Their vanish'd hopes of victory renew; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAizRxjnwQJV
While Gyas lags, they kindle in the race, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAmvN2y4qyV2
To reach the mark. Sergesthus takes the place; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA8Kp8rm5PZn
Mnestheus pursues; and while around they wind, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAh20yNXXpQE
Comes up, not half his galley's length behind; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAA4HaHJu08c
Then, on the deck, amidst his mates appear'd, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAlISIll58YK
And thus their drooping courage he cheer'd: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAp8tRDuAItG
"My friends, and Hector's followers heretofore, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAeybLERKDqd
Exert your vigor; tug the lab'ring oar; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA8YFlfX3lmf
Stretch to your strokes, my still unconquer'd crew, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAklEe9lY9hM
Whom from the flaming walls of Troy I drew. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA5MDIvH2ygS
In this, our common int'rest, let me find 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAXzY2GcceOi
That strength of hand, that courage of the mind, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAYhPm4YSdaZ
As when you stemm'd the strong Malean flood, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAIsp4tKmh0C
And o'er the Syrtes' broken billows row'd. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAydfYIymBMU
I seek not now the foremost palm to gain; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAr09atx0jHt
Tho' yet- but, ah! that haughty wish is vain! 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA8UPWch6804
Let those enjoy it whom the gods ordain. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA85FE4HKUoo
But to be last, the lags of all the race!- 1297Please respect copyright.PENANADL6gxOIhR9
Redeem yourselves and me from that disgrace." 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAbAMXopGenH
Now, one and all, they tug amain; they row 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA2t6pVh3d2w
At the full stretch, and shake the brazen prow. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANACnv5nPRJ5u
The sea beneath 'em sinks; their lab'ring sides 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA8ZL45Au8Sd
Are swell'd, and sweat runs gutt'ring down in tides. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAK0t8N847ob
Chance aids their daring with unhop'd success; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAoWZ3aROfle
Sergesthus, eager with his beak to press 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAsDxBf84pf3
Betwixt the rival galley and the rock, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAbnIRe2qWoR
Shuts up th' unwieldly Centaur in the lock. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA9slTG5KjVE
The vessel struck; and, with the dreadful shock, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAd0ES0nd437
Her oars she shiver'd, and her head she broke. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAkdqqn8kgQP
The trembling rowers from their banks arise, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA7vMP3PZuKm
And, anxious for themselves, renounce the prize. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAe13H7CF2i6
With iron poles they heave her off the shores, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAIEjjBCq73b
And gather from the sea their floating oars. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAVIROQOZhuF
The crew of Mnestheus, with elated minds, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANABm1t4OI1Pu
Urge their success, and call the willing winds; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA308IGR1ebG
Then ply their oars, and cut their liquid way 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA61n678fAr3
In larger compass on the roomy sea. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAkCvYvUsa6y
As, when the dove her rocky hold forsakes, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAQC2hWg0agN
Rous'd in a fright, her sounding wings she shakes; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA8GaviUJisL
The cavern rings with clatt'ring; out she flies, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA11IFQSIEhB
And leaves her callow care, and cleaves the skies: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAITQlML5lO4
At first she flutters; but at length she springs 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAbCy9ArCRpj
To smoother flight, and shoots upon her wings: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAu3kGpLQPA9
So Mnestheus in the Dolphin cuts the sea; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAqY8wSr4POj
And, flying with a force, that force assists his way. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAGCxRuZyJnp
Sergesthus in the Centaur soon he pass'd, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAco55zUoZbZ
Wedg'd in the rocky shoals, and sticking fast. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAwNPBjjeqlz
In vain the victor he with cries implores, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAF7oApDKGDq
And practices to row with shatter'd oars. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAHNc5tvZq0u
Then Mnestheus bears with Gyas, and outflies: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAUiqiPkAqO8
The ship, without a pilot, yields the prize. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAwrmwfInyJV
Unvanquish'd Scylla now alone remains; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAlsFSAhI7VI
Her he pursues, and all his vigor strains. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAF9LJsa9oGz
Shouts from the fav'ring multitude arise; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAo1uiE6xOL5
Applauding Echo to the shouts replies; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAEBdTEFOjF1
Shouts, wishes, and applause run rattling thro' the skies. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANArZDl0WxR7g
These clamors with disdain the Scylla heard, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAQB3K8aD9fY
Much grudg'd the praise, but more the robb'd reward: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANALeiNLrFKfz
Resolv'd to hold their own, they mend their pace, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAehDadNETjO
All obstinate to die, or gain the race. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAt5WJE1bnwn
Rais'd with success, the Dolphin swiftly ran; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANALNaqsPOpHG
For they can conquer, who believe they can. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAIjMLyH0vSJ
Both urge their oars, and fortune both supplies, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA95K3I8Iiot
And both perhaps had shar'd an equal prize; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANATOAbetmm2D
When to the seas Cloanthus holds his hands, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAIcVvyMuHV1
And succor from the wat'ry pow'rs demands: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAnmjlG9KId8
"Gods of the liquid realms, on which I row! 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAWJYJYEt61Q
If, giv'n by you, the laurel bind my brow, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAgyQLMCO1jP
Assist to make me guilty of my vow! 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAekKbW78aHs
A snow-white bull shall on your shore be slain; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANANI2LPF8DD6
His offer'd entrails cast into the main, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAjjNmtsqmn2
And ruddy wine, from golden goblets thrown, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANArHhjIMPyp8
Your grateful gift and my return shall own." 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAitFNvuBwtY
The choir of nymphs, and Phorcus, from below, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAw1j9wPvpQV
With virgin Panopea, heard his vow; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAMG8P6KLBDA
And old Portunus, with his breadth of hand, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAksqwAzU7Pf
Push'd on, and sped the galley to the land. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAUIJHnC2mUW
Swift as a shaft, or winged wind, she flies, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAedIGVp47wh
And, darting to the port, obtains the prize. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAi4eeFtdhTg
The herald summons all, and then proclaims 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAJmsBZAbGpq
Cloanthus conqu'ror of the naval games. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA94vuBmAghg
The prince with laurel crowns the victor's head, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA3mvtKW2tWZ
And three fat steers are to his vessel led, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAqUtrXVfrdi
The ship's reward; with gen'rous wine beside, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAY5aOOaL3dY
And sums of silver, which the crew divide. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAjz1eie8VcX
The leaders are distinguish'd from the rest; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAYyfelX7VEj
The victor honor'd with a nobler vest, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAYCy6n0ghls
Where gold and purple strive in equal rows, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAYhQbm6VZYf
And needlework its happy cost bestows. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANApGcg8CEYq2
There Ganymede is wrought with living art, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANATc5SUXrXi4
Chasing thro' Ida's groves the trembling hart: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAwW1M0HGBfW
Breathless he seems, yet eager to pursue; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAAJZthqLvLZ
When from aloft descends, in open view, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAouOi4SKYvz
The bird of Jove, and, sousing on his prey, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAAahjjClLh3
With crooked talons bears the boy away. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAIowyDAn63x
In vain, with lifted hands and gazing eyes, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANANgFYIypNB8
His guards behold him soaring thro' the skies, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAjgwspGHDds
And dogs pursue his flight with imitated cries. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAJfOGrH7bYS
Mnestheus the second victor was declar'd; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAaP3hQDzsZO
And, summon'd there, the second prize he shard. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAZ5tDF1tRF8
A coat of mail, brave Demoleus bore, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAflOOtvYgtx
More brave Aeneas from his shoulders tore, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAZVvodwHwAJ
In single combat on the Trojan shore: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA8MgaajJXDA
This was ordain'd for Mnestheus to possess; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAerm66LZLGH
In war for his defense, for ornament in peace. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA5yuOyISeJq
Rich was the gift, and glorious to behold, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAoB5BZUkPON
But yet so pond'rous with its plates of gold, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAlz7V62t0lc
That scarce two servants could the weight sustain; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAQCqjlLfpiK
Yet, loaded thus, Demoleus o'er the plain 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAFg7wwk2oo9
Pursued and lightly seiz'd the Trojan train. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAYtC2OlocRG
The third, succeeding to the last reward, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAgCGkncfXID
Two goodly bowls of massy silver shar'd, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAEBXmkQ2nx7
With figures prominent, and richly wrought, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAiVYlHZKFgb
And two brass caldrons from Dodona brought. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAs72QWHCKCl
Thus all, rewarded by the hero's hands, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAEB0FpIYaW2
Their conqu'ring temples bound with purple bands; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAa5VXJaJTqL
And now Sergesthus, clearing from the rock, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAWiGRFCaH0w
Brought back his galley shatter'd with the shock. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAzh6YEVVgVo
Forlorn she look'd, without an aiding oar, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAh7g3OHQ9i3
And, houted by the vulgar, made to shore. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAyuSGkNiMwX
As when a snake, surpris'd upon the road, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAU1xHn5tIIt
Is crush'd athwart her body by the load 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA00S5fpiNRq
Of heavy wheels; or with a mortal wound 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAjWXyJdASWg
Her belly bruis'd, and trodden to the ground: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAKoz4EV6rm5
In vain, with loosen'd curls, she crawls along; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAP3ckxw1jLi
Yet, fierce above, she brandishes her tongue; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAlytVwhtHPN
Glares with her eyes, and bristles with her scales; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAj4jRgQjaAO
But, groveling in the dust, her parts unsound she trails: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANALtRTBh3FYZ
So slowly to the port the Centaur tends, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAUV8DgaP8xT
But, what she wants in oars, with sails amends. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAcARnGKzyRo
Yet, for his galley sav'd, the grateful prince 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAepVlfvxNTv
Is pleas'd th' unhappy chief to recompense. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANASTzU5tD7Wo
Pholoe, the Cretan slave, rewards his care, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAM57oDaG8jx
Beauteous herself, with lovely twins as fair. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAoem3MbHLD2
From thence his way the Trojan hero bent 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAVqPt5PplCX
Into the neighb'ring plain, with mountains pent, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAWyS91DdoJo
Whose sides were shaded with surrounding wood. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANASOuqvC32gF
Full in the midst of this fair valley stood 1297Please respect copyright.PENANASXl4loX7gs
A native theater, which, rising slow 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAkJbq57EE28
By just degrees, o'erlook'd the ground below. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA42OQK0pHH4
High on a sylvan throne the leader sate; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAo6SHHKAZyv
A num'rous train attend in solemn state. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAHvtQ8eh5pQ
Here those that in the rapid course delight, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANASUaJoyP8EF
Desire of honor and the prize invite. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAKy737d9Mo3
The rival runners without order stand; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAfycN327LOF
The Trojans mix'd with the Sicilian band. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAt9OaYjdyYh
First Nisus, with Euryalus, appears; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA7XIqeatVdI
Euryalus a boy of blooming years, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAGGGKu6qxUa
With sprightly grace and equal beauty crown'd; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAa1MOYVgQFN
Nisus, for friendship to the youth renown'd. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAjLTXVTOtrj
Diores next, of Priam's royal race, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANALfv0cNM4G5
Then Salius joined with Patron, took their place; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAlGtzzM30V5
(But Patron in Arcadia had his birth, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANARbwkGGuhJW
And Salius his from Arcananian earth;) 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAhoDZ7ClbO8
Then two Sicilian youths- the names of these, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAoOVNbSGcsO
Swift Helymus, and lovely Panopes: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAhvboDj8uQu
Both jolly huntsmen, both in forest bred, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA5KysowB82L
And owning old Acestes for their head; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAj8I7VObDE8
With sev'ral others of ignobler name, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAxz48wwF0sP
Whom time has not deliver'd o'er to fame. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAz5kJ09ysdb
To these the hero thus his thoughts explain'd, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAD022BrMZhO
In words which gen'ral approbation gain'd: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAmg7nTUfMR9
"One common largess is for all design'd, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAcHHf7GaFzG
(The vanquish'd and the victor shall be join'd,) 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAeyeIdqs12O
Two darts of polish'd steel and Gnosian wood, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA3GaxCy4b0v
A silver-studded ax, alike bestow'd. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAG6TGF6L1Cu
The foremost three have olive wreaths decreed: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAodBEsF0nOB
The first of these obtains a stately steed, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANADELR9yQ4up
Adorn'd with trappings; and the next in fame, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAxNFR3OMcSC
The quiver of an Amazonian dame, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAqzcLby0JRD
With feather'd Thracian arrows well supplied: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAzBjUTDi0MI
A golden belt shall gird his manly side, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAlOYaRDGzsf
Which with a sparkling diamond shall be tied. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAyz7OvhnFvV
The third this Grecian helmet shall content." 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAn12eP1b4eZ
He said. To their appointed base they went; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANACQ2T0o6Tlp
With beating hearts th' expected sign receive, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAgwMa2QIhBk
And, starting all at once, the barrier leave. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAIjdII1hhYI
Spread out, as on the winged winds, they flew, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAaTCGI5BQwc
And seiz'd the distant goal with greedy view. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA5UgoVSuzYA
Shot from the crowd, swift Nisus all o'erpass'd; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAee76dbisb7
Nor storms, nor thunder, equal half his haste. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA3Hqi8cdppM
The next, but tho' the next, yet far disjoin'd, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA8yFEtGgrai
Came Salius, and Euryalus behind; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAohkXoeJef9
Then Helymus, whom young Diores plied, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAg52n6bSlkf
Step after step, and almost side by side, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAoPuCQYI8r1
His shoulders pressing; and, in longer space, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA5LdEodHzjX
Had won, or left at least a dubious race. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANApYrv5guGlO
Now, spent, the goal they almost reach at last, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAkJyj3PieWv
When eager Nisus, hapless in his haste, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAk6wpvYQygT
Slipp'd first, and, slipping, fell upon the plain, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAhuy3LnamGF
Soak'd with the blood of oxen newly slain. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAx3hENUNbP8
The careless victor had not mark'd his way; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAN8eH9qQbXe
But, treading where the treach'rous puddle lay, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA0kNi5Y4O24
His heels flew up; and on the grassy floor 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAdSzVLarwOQ
He fell, besmear'd with filth and holy gore. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAyTIZIZMDo4
Not mindless then, Euryalus, of thee, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAa3CcUooJTi
Nor of the sacred bonds of amity, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAKAlHuDIIqN
He strove th' immediate rival's hope to cross, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAULdknGgDck
And caught the foot of Salius as he rose. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAHuMIyJXV3W
So Salius lay extended on the plain; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA1fblTFwZz5
Euryalus springs out, the prize to gain, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAfzaWL0mwZx
And leaves the crowd: applauding peals attend 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAACZr0Bxi8C
The victor to the goal, who vanquish'd by his friend. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA6uBT2eZRcw
Next Helymus; and then Diores came, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAlEjTiPZVTX
By two misfortunes made the third in fame. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAxuzNv77PD7
But Salius enters, and, exclaiming loud 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAO3pQs63biD
For justice, deafens and disturbs the crowd; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAaWBDfTZ5dW
Urges his cause may in the court be heard; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAEnsUXU4iWe
And pleads the prize is wrongfully conferr'd. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAL8EfBQFJxb
But favor for Euryalus appears; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAqjnTGeeXRk
His blooming beauty, with his tender tears, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAvMg7G6SuBJ
Had brib'd the judges for the promis'd prize. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAqmMwd3VoGJ
Besides, Diores fills the court with cries, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA2xtQVvP47s
Who vainly reaches at the last reward, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAqhYZAt4Pug
If the first palm on Salius be conferr'd. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAFqezcGH3ml
Then thus the prince: "Let no disputes arise: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAfI3VTvRIpg
Where fortune plac'd it, I award the prize. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAiwOoqGLXQG
But fortune's errors give me leave to mend, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAQiTqfGwz0H
At least to pity my deserving friend." 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAUGNdfMNQ9R
He said, and, from among the spoils, he draws 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA6pl38sFBOA
(Pond'rous with shaggy mane and golden paws) 1297Please respect copyright.PENANADo82mvwiV0
A lion's hide: to Salius this he gives. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAoO1thcoKan
Nisus with envy sees the gift, and grieves. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANATnYqYT3qJ9
"If such rewards to vanquish'd men are due." 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAlEmcQj1O5U
He said, "and falling is to rise by you, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAkfp6NkYwng
What prize may Nisus from your bounty claim, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAB3OPSwLVVN
Who merited the first rewards and fame? 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAZXYk1tbRKP
In falling, both an equal fortune tried; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA1CUHOxDp2w
Would fortune for my fall so well provide!" 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAuINfVZUyx7
With this he pointed to his face, and show'd 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAW4s0H9zPwA
His hand and all his habit smear'd with blood. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAsDvfbHet4b
Th' indulgent father of the people smil'd, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAjFqqOHdoYt
And caus'd to be produc'd an ample shield, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAPb72DSXOTm
Of wondrous art, by Didymaon wrought, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA0OwBtpE08s
Long since from Neptune's bars in triumph brought. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAy2OZ9UhTsC
This giv'n to Nisus, he divides the rest, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANADae8QkMp4d
And equal justice in his gifts express'd. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAxpFPUzE1BQ
The race thus ended, and rewards bestow'd, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANADAEukAgvhO
Once more the princes bespeaks th' attentive crowd: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAwK60FgkJVI
"If there he here whose dauntless courage dare 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAcINLxTvVGl
In gauntlet-fight, with limbs and body bare, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAGbJNeWlQrj
His opposite sustain in open view, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA26j6MKsNrU
Stand forth the champion, and the games renew. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANARdwPJlOWMp
Two prizes I propose, and thus divide: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAz04Es8bZLo
A bull with gilded horns, and fillets tied, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA7EMQPEBONK
Shall be the portion of the conqu'ring chief; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAvyySPNigzF
A sword and helm shall cheer the loser's grief." 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAfX6Ukwbpku
Then haughty Dares in the lists appears; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAFYkGT3MVpe
Stalking he strides, his head erected bears: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA7UtFkuHQ1T
His nervous arms the weighty gauntlet wield, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAQd7JenDJDC
And loud applauses echo thro' the field. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAXK9PBcvYBo
Dares alone in combat us'd to stand 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA0BrWkGoKCi
The match of mighty Paris, hand to hand; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAPQn1rOt875
The same, at Hector's fun'rals, undertook 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAHGnHdE0y7s
Gigantic Butes, of th' Amycian stock, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAUzQf5V7Sq0
And, by the stroke of his resistless hand, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAgytwo7q9VW
Stretch'd the vast bulk upon the yellow sand. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAaceRfz9iQT
Such Dares was; and such he strode along, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANATTzqsrRbPN
And drew the wonder of the gazing throng. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAJZkI18lhvY
His brawny back and ample breast he shows, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAwJsBDf8Kl2
His lifted arms around his head he throws, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA7ekbOJZZ0n
And deals in whistling air his empty blows. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAdealcpDA0R
His match is sought; but, thro' the trembling band, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANALs5PKLV48W
Not one dares answer to the proud demand. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAzfeV0wP6Hp
Presuming of his force, with sparkling eyes 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAemrmXGeXa9
Already he devours the promis'd prize. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAiO6QgSHR26
He claims the bull with awless insolence, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA7kFjrsCtP1
And having seiz'd his horns, accosts the prince: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA3UIvzKJRr8
"If none my matchless valor dares oppose, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANACwws0XEcl6
How long shall Dares wait his dastard foes? 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA9XZ0nXWwCA
Permit me, chief, permit without delay, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAhwXSjCLM4M
To lead this uncontended gift away." 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAqFQrVG24JZ
The crowd assents, and with redoubled cries 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAcAcO11qkWC
For the proud challenger demands the prize. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA03VsWA8kAa
Acestes, fir'd with just disdain, to see 1297Please respect copyright.PENANANho4M5cKbM
The palm usurp'd without a victory, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAWuIOx5MMRy
Reproach'd Entellus thus, who sate beside, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAQZaDumaJhc
And heard and saw, unmov'd, the Trojan's pride: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA49yEVkG4uA
"Once, but in vain, a champion of renown, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA6Sv4LGX8Jd
So tamely can you bear the ravish'd crown, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAyj3vuXsutG
A prize in triumph borne before your sight, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA1tNGUaaoOJ
And shun, for fear, the danger of the fight? 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAEcsosTy7sr
Where is our Eryx now, the boasted name, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAUh78gRZT6s
The god who taught your thund'ring arm the game? 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA6Xvhi8zeKO
Where now your baffled honor? Where the spoil 1297Please respect copyright.PENANANYomgetGz2
That fill'd your house, and fame that fill'd our isle?" 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAQJXmnWLd5H
Entellus, thus: "My soul is still the same, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANALPlFunoMxF
Unmov'd with fear, and mov'd with martial fame; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA7b9pqa6Unr
But my chill blood is curdled in my veins, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAST6nWA8l6E
And scarce the shadow of a man remains. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANArOmb2fzhrG
O could I turn to that fair prime again, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAebDeFCMxZF
That prime of which this boaster is so vain, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANALRAkEvzXv8
The brave, who this decrepid age defies, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAVVbh16qoKy
Should feel my force, without the promis'd prize." 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAUV5nQEbGUU
He said; and, rising at the word, he threw 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA8xMZQGyAe0
Two pond'rous gauntlets down in open view; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAKcEMbsGz9g
Gauntlets which Eryx wont in fight to wield, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAqv0NPwaXF9
And sheathe his hands with in the listed field. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAlD4itcmHNg
With fear and wonder seiz'd, the crowd beholds 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAGlPux6mF8V
The gloves of death, with sev'n distinguish'd folds 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAI6dAYxYk4n
Of tough bull hides; the space within is spread 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAnboNxrWvvq
With iron, or with loads of heavy lead: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAlUxa7n3Zno
Dares himself was daunted at the sight, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAcgSBPN812g
Renounc'd his challenge, and refus'd to fight. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAaSTNsKTPx0
Astonish'd at their weight, the hero stands, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAQJD1Ewwk4N
And pois'd the pond'rous engines in his hands. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAbp3StYwasD
"What had your wonder," said Entellus, "been, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAsM4mlWDZMs
Had you the gauntlets of Alcides seen, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA3Kago7RHm3
Or view'd the stern debate on this unhappy green! 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAq6S3NtzqnL
These which I bear your brother Eryx bore, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAydOAjBZlp3
Still mark'd with batter'd brains and mingled gore. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAT0e9hSMKZr
With these he long sustain'd th' Herculean arm; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAI1X0bgZcUq
And these I wielded while my blood was warm, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAHNFlGuSMUZ
This languish'd frame while better spirits fed, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA0jeUM1vUiI
Ere age unstrung my nerves, or time o'ersnow'd my head. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANANhSUkrBmbs
But if the challenger these arms refuse, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA2BbJPwEGpP
And cannot wield their weight, or dare not use; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAZG61HG6dIb
If great Aeneas and Acestes join 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAAqopaf7y6e
In his request, these gauntlets I resign; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANATkha6Xb0vy
Let us with equal arms perform the fight, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA6YVgebORZs
And let him leave to fear, since I resign my right." 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAYYqnWfbaYb
This said, Entellus for the strife prepares; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANArqSTZAJaPU
Stripp'd of his quilted coat, his body bares; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAkQTCrV92uy
Compos'd of mighty bones and brawn he stands, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAMo7PWSz5Gu
A goodly tow'ring object on the sands. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA581UAqJ6bN
Then just Aeneas equal arms supplied, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAcyD5PQYqAN
Which round their shoulders to their wrists they tied. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAX1B3ZhuZr5
Both on the tiptoe stand, at full extent, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAiWRfRoimnh
Their arms aloft, their bodies inly bent; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAFh2JFO3m4X
Their heads from aiming blows they bear afar; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAlXVlr2EKVB
With clashing gauntlets then provoke the war. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAvKO0a5t38g
One on his youth and pliant limbs relies; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAG7Zq8stY4i
One on his sinews and his giant size. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAYcjNK7BXKh
The last is stiff with age, his motion slow; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAktpUEMssyu
He heaves for breath, he staggers to and fro, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANALbSEnhyRyS
And clouds of issuing smoke his nostrils loudly blow. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAyHixXiWmfS
Yet equal in success, they ward, they strike; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAp66tYXuFxg
Their ways are diff'rent, but their art alike. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAo9japjQSmG
Before, behind, the blows are dealt; around 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA76ddtlqUYt
Their hollow sides the rattling thumps resound. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAOxFAyPllr2
A storm of strokes, well meant, with fury flies, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAAIcxmNyq8g
And errs about their temples, ears, and eyes. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAP3sQojV4N8
Nor always errs; for oft the gauntlet draws 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA7wF3SqlfrA
A sweeping stroke along the crackling jaws. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA8K8EEcjU0X
Heavy with age, Entellus stands his ground, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA5WSCk4LirM
But with his warping body wards the wound. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAg8rZr8Mgw6
His hand and watchful eye keep even pace; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAqj5QNSUGa8
While Dares traverses and shifts his place, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAizsRZcsQc8
And, like a captain who beleaguers round 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAGCB15YK7H8
Some strong-built castle on a rising ground, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAo7JYOMeEEj
Views all th' approaches with observing eyes: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAHOOICR3WA4
This and that other part in vain he tries, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA95g4lSsjuf
And more on industry than force relies. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAhwjUyC5yMX
With hands on high, Entellus threats the foe; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAEN8I0PnVF8
But Dares watch'd the motion from below, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAtDvZvR1wka
And slipp'd aside, and shunn'd the long descending blow. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAIjyLAcZdm9
Entellus wastes his forces on the wind, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAhn1gaw0vuN
And, thus deluded of the stroke design'd, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAr2xwUz5ZkY
Headlong and heavy fell; his ample breast 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA3iaWQrHAnJ
And weighty limbs his ancient mother press'd. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAbecCFkG98g
So falls a hollow pine, that long had stood 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAjMg5sAOO08
On Ida's height, or Erymanthus' wood, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAq2aC3bE3C4
Torn from the roots. The diff'ring nations rise, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAHZbAVYq8qD
And shouts and mingled murmurs rend the skies, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAnSt1OZ7v8J
Acestus runs with eager haste, to raise 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAop8S9xBDaE
The fall'n companion of his youthful days. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAP3FLzTc2Pk
Dauntless he rose, and to the fight return'd; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAaUzIxbNzP2
With shame his glowing cheeks, his eyes with fury burn'd. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAL3usSFOoXe
Disdain and conscious virtue fir'd his breast, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAdvLvAzgmbu
And with redoubled force his foe he press'd. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA0QEIsTQMPH
He lays on load with either hand, amain, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAKxwxAXdGdg
And headlong drives the Trojan o'er the plain; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAJ3LPhtMVSE
Nor stops, nor stays; nor rest nor breath allows; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAofaCRWNkUt
But storms of strokes descend about his brows, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANATiqSCsk1C3
A rattling tempest, and a hail of blows. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAs3wMyQ8BIG
But now the prince, who saw the wild increase 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAs1AjXBhlDj
Of wounds, commands the combatants to cease, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA7rEMmHakdv
And bounds Entellus' wrath, and bids the peace. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANARUGOeaPEXO
First to the Trojan, spent with toil, he came, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANACQ5Gj57ND7
And sooth'd his sorrow for the suffer'd shame. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAoi9Mtnvh5d
"What fury seiz'd my friend? The gods," said he, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAcXz7FKwUR4
"To him propitious, and averse to thee, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANATkgjLPqg1Y
Have giv'n his arm superior force to thine. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAJKyxRjvfi1
'T is madness to contend with strength divine." 1297Please respect copyright.PENANArlhrp9ohah
The gauntlet fight thus ended, from the shore 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAQ143mZyZnq
His faithful friends unhappy Dares bore: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANALUsZzCuQtU
His mouth and nostrils pour'd a purple flood, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAfTKAlPY37V
And pounded teeth came rushing with his blood. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAMDzAzSJV94
Faintly he stagger'd thro' the hissing throng, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANASmW1oSwlIi
And hung his head, and trail'd his legs along. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAYRwqMvRDUv
The sword and casque are carried by his train; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAxu8xKZCovB
But with his foe the palm and ox remain. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAgbnwlaE5El
The champion, then, before Aeneas came, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA97YkjilvNQ
Proud of his prize, but prouder of his fame: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAQVDFfJlCWO
"O goddess-born, and you, Dardanian host, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAxlh0LgKAfI
Mark with attention, and forgive my boast; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAFmoeF5S9b2
Learn what I was, by what remains; and know 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAfZGxEncLPp
From what impending fate you sav'd my foe." 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAChmX192vQu
Sternly he spoke, and then confronts the bull; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAvTm9rDznxN
And, on his ample forehead aiming full, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAwSlU8HD27R
The deadly stroke, descending, pierc'd the skull. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAFykmrC1DZC
Down drops the beast, nor needs a second wound, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAIMiANv9FjA
But sprawls in pangs of death, and spurns the ground. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAui00JmfuOC
Then, thus: "In Dares' stead I offer this. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAXXGOkGjnSO
Eryx, accept a nobler sacrifice; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAx85mEbJC2A
Take the last gift my wither'd arms can yield: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAXkJiBUq7Ai
Thy gauntlets I resign, and here renounce the field." 1297Please respect copyright.PENANACReS2ixz5h
This done, Aeneas orders, for the close, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAOWKriXa4Cw
The strife of archers with contending bows. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAoeOCJctDuK
The mast Sergesthus' shatter'd galley bore 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAgDGQ6IR8nl
With his own hands he raises on the shore. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANArMkKgKZ9No
A flutt'ring dove upon the top they tie, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA8PvmEZIP2k
The living mark at which their arrows fly. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAsukVMohk2j
The rival archers in a line advance, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA71346O0HR0
Their turn of shooting to receive from chance. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAdJCV8IpPLN
A helmet holds their names; the lots are drawn: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAcA75ZAdkxJ
On the first scroll was read Hippocoon. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAP71eJCFdEF
The people shout. Upon the next was found 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAvw69S4b5v6
Young Mnestheus, late with naval honors crown'd. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA5n61As05RJ
The third contain'd Eurytion's noble name, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANACblmLrbBGs
Thy brother, Pandarus, and next in fame, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANADE54zNAi7b
Whom Pallas urg'd the treaty to confound, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAuZbCrasMGb
And send among the Greeks a feather'd wound. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA93tbZdocen
Acestes in the bottom last remain'd, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA4C1Q60dqC3
Whom not his age from youthful sports restrain'd. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAmrR3hzQfaf
Soon all with vigor bend their trusty bows, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA79KFQ2v6qy
And from the quiver each his arrow chose. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA08qfHvGrWo
Hippocoon's was the first: with forceful sway 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAkVXsUJbMpD
It flew, and, whizzing, cut the liquid way. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAKztIpVf1Ax
Fix'd in the mast the feather'd weapon stands: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAYXlSPhOOqu
The fearful pigeon flutters in her bands, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAwPojDmfj3D
And the tree trembled, and the shouting cries 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAPH0wKIDLK6
Of the pleas'd people rend the vaulted skies. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAN9fcAciAW6
Then Mnestheus to the head his arrow drove, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANARlg9GgFeYr
With lifted eyes, and took his aim above, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAb6rKW9cLnM
But made a glancing shot, and missed the dove; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAAg8rwmZXJ1
Yet miss'd so narrow, that he cut the cord 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA0BcLTpOYGy
Which fasten'd by the foot the flitting bird. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANArJ9ngiOx2M
The captive thus releas'd, away she flies, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANARSPZtvvD1O
And beats with clapping wings the yielding skies. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAF7EHTQmZBt
His bow already bent, Eurytion stood; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAMfj2zvEX5t
And, having first invok'd his brother god, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAuw4QlvztkF
His winged shaft with eager haste he sped. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANArPjKvgZgAQ
The fatal message reach'd her as she fled: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAhvg7AyK9qi
She leaves her life aloft; she strikes the ground, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA6LjNCmM6YZ
And renders back the weapon in the wound. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAxAZ5Aa6qaP
Acestes, grudging at his lot, remains, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANASXqKi9lcJK
Without a prize to gratify his pains. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANArz8ssSIQsJ
Yet, shooting upward, sends his shaft, to show 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAWGYHV4YOmK
An archer's art, and boast his twanging bow. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAXLG70UvBNT
The feather'd arrow gave a dire portent, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA7N2FmKBJmp
And latter augurs judge from this event. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA3mYzoENJwm
Chaf'd by the speed, it fir'd; and, as it flew, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAlRtPnlAddK
A trail of following flames ascending drew: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAZmIXac2bQG
Kindling they mount, and mark the shiny way; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAaIIFX2jc8U
Across the skies as falling meteors play, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAXLFxDledpx
And vanish into wind, or in a blaze decay. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAm5Q0lHodaX
The Trojans and Sicilians wildly stare, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAjj0m5lzsBa
And, trembling, turn their wonder into pray'r. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAM3s6QelhbZ
The Dardan prince put on a smiling face, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA6wDVwks4TQ
And strain'd Acestes with a close embrace; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAIZjZCirD9p
Then, hon'ring him with gifts above the rest, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAHhjC2fAgO9
Turn'd the bad omen, nor his fears confess'd. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAY6Wekqnc2m
"The gods," said he, "this miracle have wrought, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAYdXat9n1a7
And order'd you the prize without the lot. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAL8lzSDROLf
Accept this goblet, rough with figur'd gold, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAl5f7OchyGy
Which Thracian Cisseus gave my sire of old: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA0Tsnfp3Mrk
This pledge of ancient amity receive, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAh76gyJFGSe
Which to my second sire I justly give." 1297Please respect copyright.PENANANQsxeUCUeM
He said, and, with the trumpets' cheerful sound, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANABGSIULrJNZ
Proclaim'd him victor, and with laurel-crown'd. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAFGWBdpfsIB
Nor good Eurytion envied him the prize, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA14x7O210kb
Tho' he transfix'd the pigeon in the skies. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAMqsSlafLIs
Who cut the line, with second gifts was grac'd; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANATBkxvkc7oo
The third was his whose arrow pierc'd the mast. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAGyfXOKudDG
The chief, before the games were wholly done, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAjrG7pEjBH0
Call'd Periphantes, tutor to his son, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAlJHjArseZ1
And whisper'd thus: "With speed Ascanius find; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAKCdwIZX4qg
And, if his childish troop be ready join'd, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA7bTNKYpT3s
On horseback let him grace his grandsire's day, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAlVEVY7bVHB
And lead his equals arm'd in just array." 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAekaHavJWs2
He said; and, calling out, the cirque he clears. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANARMqn1BlQ4U
The crowd withdrawn, an open plain appears. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAXYclYeWSL6
And now the noble youths, of form divine, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAs94IayTdGb
Advance before their fathers, in a line; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAlikMqdgRzv
The riders grace the steeds; the steeds with glory shine. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAOjxCtjffQA
Thus marching on in military pride, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAso7zT0tgUH
Shouts of applause resound from side to side. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAHs3P97A2Je
Their casques adorn'd with laurel wreaths they wear, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAGfEPwEeUyx
Each brandishing aloft a cornel spear. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANArrvVUmDFLA
Some at their backs their gilded quivers bore; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAphWTt2tdyb
Their chains of burnish'd gold hung down before. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA1dIUoSQ0FF
Three graceful troops they form'd upon the green; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANADtbPbMmQ1V
Three graceful leaders at their head were seen; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAa2nRJ6ZN4Z
Twelve follow'd ev'ry chief, and left a space between. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA85PwnJkpsw
The first young Priam led; a lovely boy, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAKg3iAAMWOY
Whose grandsire was th' unhappy king of Troy; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAeUuTbC2dxB
His race in after times was known to fame, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA37vAds3fy0
New honors adding to the Latian name; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAURLpJQmJRj
And well the royal boy his Thracian steed became. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAL4iY7fapK1
White were the fetlocks of his feet before, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA97jnrgqccy
And on his front a snowy star he bore. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAT2v5aQ78jW
Then beauteous Atys, with Iulus bred, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAy2rw2EZocn
Of equal age, the second squadron led. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAXOGMarWfoF
The last in order, but the first in place, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAjCbo5VYw5C
First in the lovely features of his face, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAoOgfN5vHFV
Rode fair Ascanius on a fiery steed, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAupIa2RdCyM
Queen Dido's gift, and of the Tyrian breed. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAzxL4Lr1N93
Sure coursers for the rest the king ordains, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAf6NpsFGAnH
With golden bits adorn'd, and purple reins. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAECMaEP3Hz3
The pleas'd spectators peals of shouts renew, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAa39vcqfpXD
And all the parents in the children view; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAOY91mP9Qgj
Their make, their motions, and their sprightly grace, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAtJmyzFvq7O
And hopes and fears alternate in their face. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANABz1M6y0Q94
Th' unfledg'd commanders and their martial train 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAGgqo6lv628
First make the circuit of the sandy plain 1297Please respect copyright.PENANABbXDbfP71j
Around their sires, and, at th' appointed sign, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAiQjJ7luiX2
Drawn up in beauteous order, form a line. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA8g0z5DDgdH
The second signal sounds, the troop divides 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAohkXmgketG
In three distinguish'd parts, with three distinguish'd guides 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAZ7My3Ui8Vi
Again they close, and once again disjoin; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAltgFZE6VXD
In troop to troop oppos'd, and line to line. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAtOctAJACdf
They meet; they wheel; they throw their darts afar 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAxp6QBbSM8p
With harmless rage and well-dissembled war. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANACXm2si7pnj
Then in a round the mingled bodies run: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA3jaDN6X45V
Flying they follow, and pursuing shun; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA4QmzRteKxP
Broken, they break; and, rallying, they renew 1297Please respect copyright.PENANALCGbnYd4XW
In other forms the military shew. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAEyurFRjJwK
At last, in order, undiscern'd they join, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAD7w41SoeFs
And march together in a friendly line. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAMsvs322Vm3
And, as the Cretan labyrinth of old, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAUpNhWob4KH
With wand'ring ways and many a winding fold, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAcV9gVSivtB
Involv'd the weary feet, without redress, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAq7XdnlDB9F
In a round error, which denied recess; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAsMPXOIM82x
So fought the Trojan boys in warlike play, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAeXoalHAx2K
Turn'd and return'd, and still a diff'rent way. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANARX6Td2iaUe
Thus dolphins in the deep each other chase 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAzoRXVR5BsS
In circles, when they swim around the wat'ry race. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAoHWeE8cN7s
This game, these carousels, Ascanius taught; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAMFDjVIPepq
And, building Alba, to the Latins brought; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAoZ8N93leFO
Shew'd what he learn'd: the Latin sires impart 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAw0qllJCNQC
To their succeeding sons the graceful art; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA4VQBKfWTbu
From these imperial Rome receiv'd the game, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAU7HDYAwVx7
Which Troy, the youths the Trojan troop, they name. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAP0ejtPSFdU
Thus far the sacred sports they celebrate: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA0hJg7v3IjP
But Fortune soon resum'd her ancient hate; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAqqhTS0jKqf
For, while they pay the dead his annual dues, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAmSWWPtp1qk
Those envied rites Saturnian Juno views; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA3xB5NMUanh
And sends the goddess of the various bow, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANANBwQ7EBXZP
To try new methods of revenge below; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA7BKDslIL9Z
Supplies the winds to wing her airy way, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAik9zdiGWU5
Where in the port secure the navy lay. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAOADYqaZTzp
Swiftly fair Iris down her arch descends, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAtX1ojQHXaj
And, undiscern'd, her fatal voyage ends. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANATBQqmI0nIU
She saw the gath'ring crowd; and, gliding thence, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAn38GKvlPNB
The desart shore, and fleet without defense. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAKc39Gw9wZF
The Trojan matrons, on the sands alone, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAuvbNkUhHXC
With sighs and tears Anchises' death bemoan; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANANXRpioRgOI
Then, turning to the sea their weeping eyes, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAvbNmPB68dP
Their pity to themselves renews their cries. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAO5XpiJIgy7
"Alas!" said one, "what oceans yet remain 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAMQJbeAoXLA
For us to sail! what labors to sustain!" 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAAU6lux33RX
All take the word, and, with a gen'ral groan, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAZ6odV3Jnci
Implore the gods for peace, and places of their own. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAlX2ZjqUxrI
The goddess, great in mischief, views their pains, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAaEqdiEAXZY
And in a woman's form her heav'nly limbs restrains. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAR9tHVKy0PE
In face and shape old Beroe she became, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAYV7M25IA6T
Doryclus' wife, a venerable dame, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAJZomDzbk1r
Once blest with riches, and a mother's name. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAdE2IuPXatQ
Thus chang'd, amidst the crying crowd she ran, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA28K83ItOgW
Mix'd with the matrons, and these words began: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAxCX6ntihjC
"O wretched we, whom not the Grecian pow'r, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAQGFSixzk36
Nor flames, destroy'd, in Troy's unhappy hour! 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA9ZfsoKJUfs
O wretched we, reserv'd by cruel fate, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANActayr4HL6g
Beyond the ruins of the sinking state! 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAM2wDmOTMax
Now sev'n revolving years are wholly run, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANArPiotIGo59
Since this improsp'rous voyage we begun; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAVPWiLbJBcj
Since, toss'd from shores to shores, from lands to lands, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAf6FsifSi0U
Inhospitable rocks and barren sands, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAfguGJZjRQc
Wand'ring in exile thro' the stormy sea, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAsyTBsslu6C
We search in vain for flying Italy. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAQOQN9oLM4R
Now cast by fortune on this kindred land, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAECQBjSozgs
What should our rest and rising walls withstand, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAI42zEKuFBF
Or hinder here to fix our banish'd band? 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAU6m02zU4n0
O country lost, and gods redeem'd in vain, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA2lA1XEGDqC
If still in endless exile we remain! 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAtbc2o4aoub
Shall we no more the Trojan walls renew, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAkSVqKZUtC8
Or streams of some dissembled Simois view! 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA9KIvPgtJ90
Haste, join with me, th' unhappy fleet consume! 1297Please respect copyright.PENANArcPROVeiD7
Cassandra bids; and I declare her doom. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAz8S7Tu5t3J
In sleep I saw her; she supplied my hands 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA2Lwemjq6Ky
(For this I more than dreamt) with flaming brands: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANARnK9X3sbIt
'With these,' said she, 'these wand'ring ships destroy: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAd1GCsANdwD
These are your fatal seats, and this your Troy.' 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAJb3G1ezBDA
Time calls you now; the precious hour employ: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAqGSnTaKO6v
Slack not the good presage, while Heav'n inspires 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAVmPVc4R7AD
Our minds to dare, and gives the ready fires. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAzzjt4HOrqc
See! Neptune's altars minister their brands: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAw86UqhCVfB
The god is pleas'd; the god supplies our hands." 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAW6s0S3e1Js
Then from the pile a flaming fire she drew, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAAcjo6xzdgu
And, toss'd in air, amidst the galleys threw. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAPH7vXOeqqN
Wrapp'd in amaze, the matrons wildly stare: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAXS1IWV67Dl
Then Pyrgo, reverenc'd for her hoary hair, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAs49e5q0zee
Pyrgo, the nurse of Priam's num'rous race: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANANNfdwvkq7J
"No Beroe this, tho' she belies her face! 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAKG1UneCXB8
What terrors from her frowning front arise! 1297Please respect copyright.PENANATuIBmb5WCV
Behold a goddess in her ardent eyes! 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAnzTPMMPM3U
What rays around her heav'nly face are seen! 1297Please respect copyright.PENANARd6kgMPLEP
Mark her majestic voice, and more than mortal mien! 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAGijcfE61Rc
Beroe but now I left, whom, pin'd with pain, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANATy889brqAr
Her age and anguish from these rites detain," 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAemFtrzclvm
She said. The matrons, seiz'd with new amaze, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAMigeZKx2W7
Roll their malignant eyes, and on the navy gaze. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAhZA73Cium4
They fear, and hope, and neither part obey: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAuUEWTt7HG8
They hope the fated land, but fear the fatal way. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAVrDTKZHfMo
The goddess, having done her task below, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAnzP9nh9sgi
Mounts up on equal wings, and bends her painted bow. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANALRiTVr89UX
Struck with the sight, and seiz'd with rage divine, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAcAAcjntpo4
The matrons prosecute their mad design: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAvlgpYDQbQZ
They shriek aloud; they snatch, with impious hands, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAuMk7cZpI1S
The food of altars; fires and flaming brands. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAGkdCERqGny
Green boughs and saplings, mingled in their haste, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAcE66Ot90hp
And smoking torches, on the ships they cast. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAtUP1dojygE
The flame, unstopp'd at first, more fury gains, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAFZsauHiExy
And Vulcan rides at large with loosen'd reins: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANALMa756lv5V
Triumphant to the painted sterns he soars, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAb3jVoOQbdo
And seizes, in this way, the banks and crackling oars. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAOXzQOeMRiP
Eumelus was the first the news to bear, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAaiDA8QtlIj
While yet they crowd the rural theater. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAsPpg3Nn9Mt
Then, what they hear, is witness'd by their eyes: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA3Gm34qTxog
A storm of sparkles and of flames arise. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAVA1Zbrp1Mu
Ascanius took th' alarm, while yet he led 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAt3uJryIPcd
His early warriors on his prancing steed, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAf8QbLqxdsY
And, spurring on, his equals soon o'erpass'd; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA3718IESCHE
Nor could his frighted friends reclaim his haste. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA62TnxfFwlX
Soon as the royal youth appear'd in view, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA863r9ERHnv
He sent his voice before him as he flew: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANANv0F9tuNLi
"What madness moves you, matrons, to destroy 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAly525FarWK
The last remainders of unhappy Troy! 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAyD7Z4uusP0
Not hostile fleets, but your own hopes, you burn, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANANY6YGToFxr
And on your friends your fatal fury turn. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAi1bmYrxZSY
Behold your own Ascanius!" While he said, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAwjVLbtvBQq
He drew his glitt'ring helmet from his head, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANABLBLkVpeY4
In which the youths to sportful arms he led. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAaXkVDnJnD4
By this, Aeneas and his train appear; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA7KMbU21jzS
And now the women, seiz'd with shame and fear, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA2J0bt0lk37
Dispers'd, to woods and caverns take their flight, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANApgMYy33H0N
Abhor their actions, and avoid the light; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANADUiBPBCLBt
Their friends acknowledge, and their error find, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA665dSb0fHi
And shake the goddess from their alter'd mind. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAVMszWOHJyv
Not so the raging fires their fury cease, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAooglqn9esq
But, lurking in the seams, with seeming peace, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAWQz4qj9ew0
Work on their way amid the smold'ring tow, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANArnZ6FePZnm
Sure in destruction, but in motion slow. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAG3ko3rVzVo
The silent plague thro' the green timber eats, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAyig2VjqTht
And vomits out a tardy flame by fits. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAx9dpXk3HjG
Down to the keels, and upward to the sails, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA2qtffxejq4
The fire descends, or mounts, but still prevails; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAXQesrxCXmX
Nor buckets pour'd, nor strength of human hand, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAMIRv26ksdO
Can the victorious element withstand. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAp7bJ06L6R6
The pious hero rends his robe, and throws 1297Please respect copyright.PENANACX6kGSJ3W2
To heav'n his hands, and with his hands his vows. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAsDjNgaOOS8
"O Jove," he cried, "if pray'rs can yet have place; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAMjAsCu65SL
If thou abhorr'st not all the Dardan race; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAT7v1UDxbWY
If any spark of pity still remain; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAcwwCoAshqY
If gods are gods, and not invok'd in vain; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAnJMvmLJyE7
Yet spare the relics of the Trojan train! 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAEldz76jWHJ
Yet from the flames our burning vessels free, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA4mxEaYPOTD
Or let thy fury fall alone on me! 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAsUcCX1cMCG
At this devoted head thy thunder throw, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAo5VQbqfGxC
And send the willing sacrifice below!" 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAgI2GPHMT5V
Scarce had he said, when southern storms arise: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAcNx9CdihuK
From pole to pole the forky lightning flies; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAEo0AMRx6Z5
Loud rattling shakes the mountains and the plain; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAmkVMgAKD2c
Heav'n bellies downward, and descends in rain. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAsToGZiJOJ7
Whole sheets of water from the clouds are sent, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAxzPMQZMVpx
Which, hissing thro' the planks, the flames prevent, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAu08cYKtIJl
And stop the fiery pest. Four ships alone 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAqIXB81itNw
Burn to the waist, and for the fleet atone. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA5qwTkR6S9f
But doubtful thoughts the hero's heart divide; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANASO30hInSm7
If he should still in Sicily reside, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAp9QvD5QV89
Forgetful of his fates, or tempt the main, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAOgTxE8hwXZ
In hope the promis'd Italy to gain. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAkplVSv00DM
Then Nautes, old and wise, to whom alone 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAs2FO9TKeYP
The will of Heav'n by Pallas was foreshown; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA3JqIHFh9kz
Vers'd in portents, experienc'd, and inspir'd 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAZRfoo13J8D
To tell events, and what the fates requir'd; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAQLsb1tehpx
Thus while he stood, to neither part inclin'd, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA9ao9E3veUZ
With cheerful words reliev'd his lab'ring mind: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAa3FPaHio58
"O goddess-born, resign'd in ev'ry state, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAWuf3lukzfc
With patience bear, with prudence push your fate. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAetjsJpgDM9
By suff'ring well, our Fortune we subdue; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA5TOeV7jRHF
Fly when she frowns, and, when she calls, pursue. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAIVHb9wt2Xh
Your friend Acestes is of Trojan kind; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANANpgkJrjvcY
To him disclose the secrets of your mind: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAvE0L7UMcNe
Trust in his hands your old and useless train; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAyPSxTYjvdH
Too num'rous for the ships which yet remain: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAl81WSvjEQ1
The feeble, old, indulgent of their ease, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANABSCcYsvZ0q
The dames who dread the dangers of the seas, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANARh4OA7m2Dh
With all the dastard crew, who dare not stand 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAWlAlrL45pC
The shock of battle with your foes by land. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA79PVAS2MT3
Here you may build a common town for all, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAv5nStNQNqr
And, from Acestes' name, Acesta call." 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAvbLIv4KZ3b
The reasons, with his friend's experience join'd, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAg473Qf0esE
Encourag'd much, but more disturb'd his mind. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANARzOy19yuBF
'T was dead of night; when to his slumb'ring eyes 1297Please respect copyright.PENANApZHNMJO3PO
His father's shade descended from the skies, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAX2F82TnCAj
And thus he spoke: "O more than vital breath, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAjUxbw966JD
Lov'd while I liv'd, and dear ev'n after death; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAokCpfXhfl9
O son, in various toils and troubles toss'd, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAujvuHgoUzC
The King of Heav'n employs my careful ghost 1297Please respect copyright.PENANATkNaO6qUz6
On his commands: the god, who sav'd from fire 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA26b9s8NYJt
Your flaming fleet, and heard your just desire. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA8I0e4I8YNq
The wholesome counsel of your friend receive, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAjO58xrwv2O
And here the coward train and woman leave: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAi2ZwApuV75
The chosen youth, and those who nobly dare, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAaEP5iwLs98
Transport, to tempt the dangers of the war. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAWHUI8OSdok
The stern Italians will their courage try; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAUfEHaMhFs3
Rough are their manners, and their minds are high. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAhVqoV9eMqn
But first to Pluto's palace you shall go, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAC6Tzn3Eu8t
And seek my shade among the blest below: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAcPpJArQytp
For not with impious ghosts my soul remains, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAkAIoYdgudV
Nor suffers with the damn'd perpetual pains, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAsbrnSqj5iU
But breathes the living air of soft Elysian plains. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA0QDkcsXT8q
The chaste Sibylla shall your steps convey, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAJNoDUy1oY6
And blood of offer'd victims free the way. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAfAtU6tCw9R
There shall you know what realms the gods assign, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAikaA1XURyw
And learn the fates and fortunes of your line. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA3eN0Q7eIMY
But now, farewell! I vanish with the night, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAHeihgUso7l
And feel the blast of heav'n's approaching light." 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA2fzb2hpIN7
He said, and mix'd with shades, and took his airy flight. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAqH2Qmb8hOO
"Whither so fast?" the filial duty cried; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAMfjL2oQDWy
"And why, ah why, the wish'd embrace denied?" 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAC3UufInrGx
He said, and rose; as holy zeal inspires, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAxgjk9fw5tu
He rakes hot embers, and renews the fires; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANApG2bJ5ukB8
His country gods and Vesta then adores 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAnto1eAHDex
With cakes and incense, and their aid implores. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA3nGu8mBgde
Next, for his friends and royal host he sent, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAICT0rcxsIU
Reveal'd his vision, and the gods' intent, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA7rTOwsVNec
With his own purpose. All, without delay, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAjdFdru9LUN
The will of Jove, and his desires obey. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAzfktzxCiyz
They list with women each degenerate name, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAsLXsovjVP4
Who dares not hazard life for future fame. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANADa5fyPNZZh
These they cashier: the brave remaining few, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAgKfXb1cpH1
Oars, banks, and cables, half consum'd, renew. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAIiyg6FxRZH
The prince designs a city with the plow; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAhioS23w80u
The lots their sev'ral tenements allow. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAyCFSDJC0dE
This part is nam'd from Ilium, that from Troy, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAQgRGjmXpyW
And the new king ascends the throne with joy; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANARAFFajKlmR
A chosen senate from the people draws; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA4A6ZgTl51z
Appoints the judges, and ordains the laws. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAyMnmEE3NoC
Then, on the top of Eryx, they begin 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAibnRz4MHg9
A rising temple to the Paphian queen. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANApc5GhhWrQB
Anchises, last, is honor'd as a god; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAkWL0bPGcGB
A priest is added, annual gifts bestow'd, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAKObk70o21X
And groves are planted round his blest abode. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAekViF2hK1l
Nine days they pass in feasts, their temples crown'd; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAnHe7ZcFMYc
And fumes of incense in the fanes abound. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAtYWaVOAtD0
Then from the south arose a gentle breeze 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAV5yizzNl9Q
That curl'd the smoothness of the glassy seas; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAr4GeShQ3Qa
The rising winds a ruffling gale afford, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA8IQvhbwT1H
And call the merry mariners aboard. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAzM6tmCCLmr
Now loud laments along the shores resound, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAorcLo9Pdld
Of parting friends in close embraces bound. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAMJbqGMojAy
The trembling women, the degenerate train, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAazzCRtgPpW
Who shunn'd the frightful dangers of the main, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANALizLgicU04
Ev'n those desire to sail, and take their share 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA9CDvt9PGB1
Of the rough passage and the promis'd war: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANADkALPjNx4u
Whom good Aeneas cheers, and recommends 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAUFY5tly5Lx
To their new master's care his fearful friends. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAO4PVRWCp5G
On Eryx's altars three fat calves he lays; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA6eAQIYKPzr
A lamb new-fallen to the stormy seas; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAKhit5CU2Ea
Then slips his haulsers, and his anchors weighs. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAV2yysUGuee
High on the deck the godlike hero stands, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANADP26d3WhtR
With olive crown'd, a charger in his hands; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANANWPwPo5a0s
Then cast the reeking entrails in the brine, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAop80bw5Us6
And pour'd the sacrifice of purple wine. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA4BgZ9TUFo5
Fresh gales arise; with equal strokes they vie, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA9nFCOyWZVM
And brush the buxom seas, and o'er the billows fly. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAK3wKygn9Ks
Meantime the mother goddess, full of fears, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANABamsV37L6F
To Neptune thus address'd, with tender tears: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAbqezojkfxi
"The pride of Jove's imperious queen, the rage, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAOPfEJpMSmZ
The malice which no suff'rings can assuage, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAiSe3mB8wPq
Compel me to these pray'rs; since neither fate, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAbOJBrol1vS
Nor time, nor pity, can remove her hate: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAr5HKOIZrej
Ev'n Jove is thwarted by his haughty wife; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAHVAk0mFUZt
Still vanquish'd, yet she still renews the strife. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAc8k9C4hN2F
As if 't were little to consume the town 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA9dXsf9FL2Y
Which aw'd the world, and wore th' imperial crown, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAwxKuJDytrJ
She prosecutes the ghost of Troy with pains, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAed8NdGNxIy
And gnaws, ev'n to the bones, the last remains. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAjECjnaBVXj
Let her the causes of her hatred tell; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAL4DvpAErFG
But you can witness its effects too well. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAdoEICfIdZf
You saw the storm she rais'd on Libyan floods, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAOZ3yhPnknG
That mix'd the mounting billows with the clouds; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAc0BBzlaayV
When, bribing Aeolus, she shook the main, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAG82qFhz6ZZ
And mov'd rebellion in your wat'ry reign. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAhj8tUmg01J
With fury she possess'd the Dardan dames, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAgj8TZyB8F6
To burn their fleet with execrable flames, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAQIJJ0oQAed
And forc'd Aeneas, when his ships were lost, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANApT6yF0ZQJB
To leave his foll'wers on a foreign coast. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAeUEKxPyHE7
For what remains, your godhead I implore, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANASa43uGuhXJ
And trust my son to your protecting pow'r. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAh3bkeKQgGT
If neither Jove's nor Fate's decree withstand, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAiZSEmoYcRT
Secure his passage to the Latian land." 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAvfY5C89j0D
Then thus the mighty Ruler of the Main: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAgrlT8vuV8D
"What may not Venus hope from Neptune's reign? 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAi7s7tBbB8F
My kingdom claims your birth; my late defense 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAQEnziPf87k
Of your indanger'd fleet may claim your confidence. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAWHz0MYXbDr
Nor less by land than sea my deeds declare 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAEwOYBxPbhf
How much your lov'd Aeneas is my care. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAMWClpyJQsY
Thee, Xanthus, and thee, Simois, I attest. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA7BQTmFsEt7
Your Trojan troops when proud Achilles press'd, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAZr7oJxmCnu
And drove before him headlong on the plain, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAjEnPKBEJum
And dash'd against the walls the trembling train; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAuvVZ47JwOV
When floods were fill'd with bodies of the slain; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAsRXU9b6CWI
When crimson Xanthus, doubtful of his way, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAfyssvKWLRa
Stood up on ridges to behold the sea; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAmraTMYNu7K
(New heaps came tumbling in, and chok'd his way;) 1297Please respect copyright.PENANACfwlViTm2H
When your Aeneas fought, but fought with odds 1297Please respect copyright.PENANARg4dEcG7gc
Of force unequal, and unequal gods; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAGZgTSgQcJ2
I spread a cloud before the victor's sight, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA7SCTFFDZyX
Sustain'd the vanquish'd, and secur'd his flight; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAnV5Dr2wMlj
Ev'n then secur'd him, when I sought with joy 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAxXbUuSZsRB
The vow'd destruction of ungrateful Troy. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA3NDoAHb6ST
My will's the same: fair goddess, fear no more, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANArWZGuItN0a
Your fleet shall safely gain the Latian shore; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAwd8JAfM2Ga
Their lives are giv'n; one destin'd head alone 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA4aqhmOZYqS
Shall perish, and for multitudes atone." 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAWu2ig9R300
Thus having arm'd with hopes her anxious mind, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAAPmTRpgAOR
His finny team Saturnian Neptune join'd, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAz7KzXAzhrP
Then adds the foamy bridle to their jaws, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAh9Mq876QGu
And to the loosen'd reins permits the laws. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANANUVjuhFbge
High on the waves his azure car he guides; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA83neqEmM24
Its axles thunder, and the sea subsides, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA5dnQR8JilL
And the smooth ocean rolls her silent tides. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAFmybGU0C7K
The tempests fly before their father's face, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANASxjnB2XxIo
Trains of inferior gods his triumph grace, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAsZM6jx3bwk
And monster whales before their master play, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA4eTXhIkqIr
And choirs of Tritons crowd the wat'ry way. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANADPJK4IJKHi
The marshal'd pow'rs in equal troops divide 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAfEBaDwV6D6
To right and left; the gods his better side 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAJuoheMGCXK
Inclose, and on the worse the Nymphs and Nereids ride. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAWqg9qEnN4P
Now smiling hope, with sweet vicissitude, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAcCtddZTJyM
Within the hero's mind his joys renew'd. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANASRXenJKGYM
He calls to raise the masts, the sheets display; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAHIqZPHk0jH
The cheerful crew with diligence obey; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAFVWsNauMyR
They scud before the wind, and sail in open sea. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAlT5BL7gM2g
Ahead of all the master pilot steers; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANACouWdNv01l
And, as he leads, the following navy veers. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAXgBL9WrSoQ
The steeds of Night had travel'd half the sky, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAUrioaufyx1
The drowsy rowers on their benches lie, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA5jWc9oOCie
When the soft God of Sleep, with easy flight, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA97UiNI97fh
Descends, and draws behind a trail of light. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAJyLrXzdqeN
Thou, Palinurus, art his destin'd prey; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAGSxXsW1l7F
To thee alone he takes his fatal way. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAWISQKEtk3u
Dire dreams to thee, and iron sleep, he bears; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAocEgZOH7g3
And, lighting on thy prow, the form of Phorbas wears. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAmh4DKnj03M
Then thus the traitor god began his tale: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA4C86awpG0k
"The winds, my friend, inspire a pleasing gale; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA013EnGIrWB
The ships, without thy care, securely sail. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAExPnhHgI08
Now steal an hour of sweet repose; and I 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAckZVOytX3J
Will take the rudder and thy room supply." 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAu6g6f5RXrx
To whom the yawning pilot, half asleep: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANACFRwhpw4KI
"Me dost thou bid to trust the treach'rous deep, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA5E44CtCIdv
The harlot smiles of her dissembling face, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA35Z2EZv90j
And to her faith commit the Trojan race? 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAzWe1g23hKx
Shall I believe the Siren South again, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANApSV0W7MjCA
And, oft betray'd, not know the monster main?" 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA6blZwWBkCs
He said: his fasten'd hands the rudder keep, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAxz0d5nRgMI
And, fix'd on heav'n, his eyes repel invading sleep. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAyOlSbyecNZ
The god was wroth, and at his temples threw 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAJc5728svg2
A branch in Lethe dipp'd, and drunk with Stygian dew: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAZ85utEEYlH
The pilot, vanquish'd by the pow'r divine, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAMmkAY5lvQA
Soon clos'd his swimming eyes, and lay supine. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAV6ww0D5EYS
Scarce were his limbs extended at their length, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAEdibZQaX88
The god, insulting with superior strength, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAX9pnsXyom9
Fell heavy on him, plung'd him in the sea, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA2IwAErch60
And, with the stern, the rudder tore away. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAIquIomQVR5
Headlong he fell, and, struggling in the main, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA7y7N1atJvf
Cried out for helping hands, but cried in vain. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANACITA2iWmOl
The victor daemon mounts obscure in air, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAsLhnESxZS9
While the ship sails without the pilot's care. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAG4AxBzvatH
On Neptune's faith the floating fleet relies; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA1W3BXFop1m
But what the man forsook, the god supplies, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAjrDMaVQnQl
And o'er the dang'rous deep secure the navy flies; 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAVueYjg6K2Q
Glides by the Sirens' cliffs, a shelfy coast, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANApa56KX1rh8
Long infamous for ships and sailors lost, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAQSJ4MjOzpd
And white with bones. Th' impetuous ocean roars, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAeGzpT6ECQi
And rocks rebellow from the sounding shores. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAOGXcg26LFe
The watchful hero felt the knocks, and found 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAE6UlzfFcM2
The tossing vessel sail'd on shoaly ground. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA62piZHzpnL
Sure of his pilot's loss, he takes himself 1297Please respect copyright.PENANA8g8oamWA8K
The helm, and steers aloof, and shuns the shelf. 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAjWYlbyj7BD
Inly he griev'd, and, groaning from the breast, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAuHz6rMeO9C
Deplor'd his death; and thus his pain express'd: 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAG3rltLlTUD
"For faith repos'd on seas, and on the flatt'ring sky, 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAl3dJ3lWKOC
Thy naked corpse is doom'd on shores unknown to lie." 1297Please respect copyright.PENANAbbZIXFkEKG
