Meantime the Trojan cuts his wat'ry way, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANASLlApcTg3W
Fix'd on his voyage, thro' the curling sea; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANARvZaymr8IU
Then, casting back his eyes, with dire amaze, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAzFGQPj9730
Sees on the Punic shore the mounting blaze. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAJpS6pMjjpe
The cause unknown; yet his presaging mind 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAG3EtyVV3Ck
The fate of Dido from the fire divin'd; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAumf5oKsPOR
He knew the stormy souls of womankind, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAmX0YtA13Ja
What secret springs their eager passions move, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAd2c5M2mR1E
How capable of death for injur'd love. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAhzYRtBQ6p8
Dire auguries from hence the Trojans draw; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA6iP2t5uefm
Till neither fires nor shining shores they saw. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAuitFCiaZCC
Now seas and skies their prospect only bound; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAxlAtzqewee
An empty space above, a floating field around. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAvuHu5Cy24s
But soon the heav'ns with shadows were o'erspread; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANASMwnbAjYkx
A swelling cloud hung hov'ring o'er their head: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAEfABvZwlVF
Livid it look'd, the threat'ning of a storm: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA8w8RaMC6Ws
Then night and horror ocean's face deform. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAXYZsHH5CMR
The pilot, Palinurus, cried aloud: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAArNyv57ieh
"What gusts of weather from that gath'ring cloud 1298Please respect copyright.PENANATUTaDZ5NJh
My thoughts presage! Ere yet the tempest roars, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAjhhE4hjtjx
Stand to your tackle, mates, and stretch your oars; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAVUCGdspblZ
Contract your swelling sails, and luff to wind." 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAeJSI5oqgv7
The frighted crew perform the task assign'd. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAdoClI3FSQS
Then, to his fearless chief: "Not Heav'n," said he, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAEkRyYpcdZF
"Tho' Jove himself should promise Italy, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA59NuQO5GX3
Can stem the torrent of this raging sea. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAobtcBssD9O
Mark how the shifting winds from west arise, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAuZpa26J4OF
And what collected night involves the skies! 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAPv2PMnl35x
Nor can our shaken vessels live at sea, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAr03BjJKiOu
Much less against the tempest force their way. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANANDtHm2KDfm
'T is fate diverts our course, and fate we must obey. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA41JIvjH5tY
Not far from hence, if I observ'd aright 1298Please respect copyright.PENANACXv86XJXaK
The southing of the stars, and polar light, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAXnuroajWPm
Sicilia lies, whose hospitable shores 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAhpGidNWPHD
In safety we may reach with struggling oars." 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAGuGyor0RiY
Aeneas then replied: "Too sure I find 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAztXEs1eTI6
We strive in vain against the seas and wind: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAugODBBD1D3
Now shift your sails; what place can please me more 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAqpRbliCOEJ
Than what you promise, the Sicilian shore, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAr5TnY65exM
Whose hallow'd earth Anchises' bones contains, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAGPjST4VyiO
And where a prince of Trojan lineage reigns?" 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAuHT2nxzxCT
The course resolv'd, before the western wind 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAsaiWaKR2W2
They scud amain, and make the port assign'd. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA6PxBwRXyuF
Meantime Acestes, from a lofty stand, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAfYcAWjxVwp
Beheld the fleet descending on the land; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAGipDUcKYC5
And, not unmindful of his ancient race, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAlckRaQwsle
Down from the cliff he ran with eager pace, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANArErN8tGEtq
And held the hero in a strict embrace. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA3NO86Kx1Rl
Of a rough Libyan bear the spoils he wore, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAncXOXjw80w
And either hand a pointed jav'lin bore. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA0uR5CsecZB
His mother was a dame of Dardan blood; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAxYRTuRmLB2
His sire Crinisus, a Sicilian flood. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAIKucNZ796P
He welcomes his returning friends ashore 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAhRKiHWPy6Z
With plenteous country cates and homely store. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAWlmS4tAB9O
Now, when the following morn had chas'd away 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAhhhcG5hbv9
The flying stars, and light restor'd the day, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAUg89GSBJdM
Aeneas call'd the Trojan troops around, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA2KDOy9ILqH
And thus bespoke them from a rising ground: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAZApHcUUoW6
"Offspring of heav'n, divine Dardanian race! 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAppQH9mGaH1
The sun, revolving thro' th' ethereal space, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAa1nYBl4m7Z
The shining circle of the year has fill'd, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAid5O9WciRV
Since first this isle my father's ashes held: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANATBdjcQQ43i
And now the rising day renews the year; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAJfMx69SgS8
A day for ever sad, for ever dear. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAuL9NLVVshS
This would I celebrate with annual games, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA4U2LPEuMRu
With gifts on altars pil'd, and holy flames, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAwJNCsYT7Qp
Tho' banish'd to Gaetulia's barren sands, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANANBh9V09AHG
Caught on the Grecian seas, or hostile lands: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAtPlioA0bfa
But since this happy storm our fleet has driv'n 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAeZwD5waqkp
(Not, as I deem, without the will of Heav'n) 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAWexIKudQ18
Upon these friendly shores and flow'ry plains, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAw7hPL3sB8p
Which hide Anchises and his blest remains, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANABV6WFOjLdj
Let us with joy perform his honors due, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAFSQoDMgHEF
And pray for prosp'rous winds, our voyage to renew; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAfkG8SH4DnR
Pray, that in towns and temples of our own, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAtZNuVxY91h
The name of great Anchises may be known, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAGXu45eezlv
And yearly games may spread the gods' renown. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA8BOFD4SKww
Our sports Acestes, of the Trojan race, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAo6HXnPYEcc
With royal gifts ordain'd, is pleas'd to grace: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANArO3yvFP14E
Two steers on ev'ry ship the king bestows; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAm6WkaFFrUR
His gods and ours shall share your equal vows. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAMPiH2ezzIX
Besides, if, nine days hence, the rosy morn 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAQXHopOH6yb
Shall with unclouded light the skies adorn, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAy5bDwVTPRv
That day with solemn sports I mean to grace: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAtxFpcru23r
Light galleys on the seas shall run a wat'ry race; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAjIQdt7IgtH
Some shall in swiftness for the goal contend, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAXE51VfslWR
And others try the twanging bow to bend; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAbnQ63mwv5X
The strong, with iron gauntlets arm'd, shall stand 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAQsbjGBISYb
Oppos'd in combat on the yellow sand. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANARyz6yC2h35
Let all be present at the games prepar'd, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAXb1e5vQ3Fd
And joyful victors wait the just reward. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAJiO8CW2766
But now assist the rites, with garlands crown'd." 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAQbSC86apjA
He said, and first his brows with myrtle bound. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAerqCqAfV2D
Then Helymus, by his example led, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAitY6aujcwj
And old Acestes, each adorn'd his head; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAliF3sOAJlY
Thus young Ascanius, with a sprightly grace, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAIfrrLi7MnA
His temples tied, and all the Trojan race. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANArG4kl8HUtu
Aeneas then advanc'd amidst the train, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANASyL6s0N7ui
By thousands follow'd thro' the flow'ry plain, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAqzIHf0fnEC
To great Anchises' tomb; which when he found, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAq5pFVreYrX
He pour'd to Bacchus, on the hallow'd ground, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAraVkJsKhKY
Two bowls of sparkling wine, of milk two more, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAEl9QulXOvF
And two (from offer'd bulls) of purple gore, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAeaII5J4wmp
With roses then the sepulcher he strow'd 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAuqeS1nKul5
And thus his father's ghost bespoke aloud: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAecYSZhaw7P
"Hail, O ye holy manes! hail again, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAPorf1dFjZq
Paternal ashes, now review'd in vain! 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAiqh1lvHXxz
The gods permitted not, that you, with me, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAPyv6npJVxm
Should reach the promis'd shores of Italy, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAgYxl7QZi1X
Or Tiber's flood, what flood soe'er it be." 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAynHOFqWiww
Scarce had he finish'd, when, with speckled pride, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAZNWFZ0VYSx
A serpent from the tomb began to glide; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANArjEFw33Ka5
His hugy bulk on sev'n high volumes roll'd; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAVbmx7jHMgF
Blue was his breadth of back, but streak'd with scaly gold: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAbt8iyhgzj0
Thus riding on his curls, he seem'd to pass 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAhCaA23bsJ9
A rolling fire along, and singe the grass. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAvbQKzTwonL
More various colors thro' his body run, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANArRwqI2KBb3
Than Iris when her bow imbibes the sun. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANADnLPnGe4JJ
Betwixt the rising altars, and around, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAdiQJn4Tm7r
The sacred monster shot along the ground; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAhxHHwSYVhF
With harmless play amidst the bowls he pass'd, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANApafKrX7RQz
And with his lolling tongue assay'd the taste: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAbKskw48MBR
Thus fed with holy food, the wondrous guest 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAVfEpDljJ7v
Within the hollow tomb retir'd to rest. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA7d6ChLJbhL
The pious prince, surpris'd at what he view'd, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA9aEsFYdBrV
The fun'ral honors with more zeal renew'd, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAAdY55S5z1Z
Doubtful if this place's genius were, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAVtQdgJ9ZWS
Or guardian of his father's sepulcher. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA6rmTKT76Q1
Five sheep, according to the rites, he slew; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA68M4uVf9Tp
As many swine, and steers of sable hue; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA1RBxkUmGcM
New gen'rous wine he from the goblets pour'd. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAHMmIVaZYVO
And call'd his father's ghost, from hell restor'd. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAlELvMAqN5E
The glad attendants in long order come, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAg0kyOOFAl3
Off'ring their gifts at great Anchises' tomb: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAJoJGbUz05z
Some add more oxen: some divide the spoil; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAzKp8oelORE
Some place the chargers on the grassy soil; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAgAgd3CRp8a
Some blow the fires, and off entrails broil. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAm6U7IMalyI
Now came the day desir'd. The skies were bright 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAGp7mwjoBs6
With rosy luster of the rising light: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAtGfuLZVft9
The bord'ring people, rous'd by sounding fame 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA170hM8pJJX
Of Trojan feasts and great Acestes' name, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANApa0sQwS4QM
The crowded shore with acclamations fill, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAhNpMjhCzVU
Part to behold, and part to prove their skill. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA9KckI34DQt
And first the gifts in public view they place, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAg7LiOPXNg1
Green laurel wreaths, and palm, the victors' grace: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAjaVBKU7qzn
Within the circle, arms and tripods lie, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAwa99ruod0g
Ingots of gold and silver, heap'd on high, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAvLxPNHzCJo
And vests embroider'd, of the Tyrian dye. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA5MXTmnlY68
The trumpet's clangor then the feast proclaims, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAPsbwxJ6tif
And all prepare for their appointed games. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAj7bjhhDPV1
Four galleys first, which equal rowers bear, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA0U0bEhrkLn
Advancing, in the wat'ry lists appear. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAov3wofa2wf
The speedy Dolphin, that outstrips the wind, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANATSkNSV4dj3
Bore Mnestheus, author of the Memmian kind: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAwfbKw6NhDb
Gyas the vast Chimaera's bulk commands, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAKqNZqW2wFL
Which rising, like a tow'ring city stands; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAhDuKt4Nicv
Three Trojans tug at ev'ry lab'ring oar; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA854cxBCwlU
Three banks in three degrees the sailors bore; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAxd2aqwnw0h
Beneath their sturdy strokes the billows roar. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAcmIeuk7EJF
Sergesthus, who began the Sergian race, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA0Tl7zabgIj
In the great Centaur took the leading place; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAOImxq77kXx
Cloanthus on the sea-green Scylla stood, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAoKzaqudGKl
From whom Cluentius draws his Trojan blood. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA75NAqT5Cyq
Far in the sea, against the foaming shore, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAxNah8Lu9iw
There stands a rock: the raging billows roar 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAKLX0REv6j8
Above his head in storms; but, when 't is clear, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAhH3mypQ7pz
Uncurl their ridgy backs, and at his foot appear. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAN3DGfmA22O
In peace below the gentle waters run; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANATfIxTYLWuO
The cormorants above lie basking in the sun. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAlvNQJWhVYg
On this the hero fix'd an oak in sight, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAdLYYrFyFmU
The mark to guide the mariners aright. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAx9yvqP0QWq
To bear with this, the seamen stretch their oars; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANACbGNdY3v0h
Then round the rock they steer, and seek the former shores. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAq08GhLjoTf
The lots decide their place. Above the rest, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA2U9R31t3uS
Each leader shining in his Tyrian vest; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA8dXVPn1WrA
The common crew with wreaths of poplar boughs 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAb9YcDYKjop
Their temples crown, and shade their sweaty brows: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA8dVy0R2x5y
Besmear'd with oil, their naked shoulders shine. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAGlu9yj6PdK
All take their seats, and wait the sounding sign: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAY04jLIPbk9
They gripe their oars; and ev'ry panting breast 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAE2JgKltTLt
Is rais'd by turns with hope, by turns with fear depress'd. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANArWeU3D7Cv4
The clangor of the trumpet gives the sign; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANASph0mBN7LR
At once they start, advancing in a line: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAqdYEkyi3U2
With shouts the sailors rend the starry skies; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAOTtOsgyf6w
Lash'd with their oars, the smoky billows rise; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA3GZ9FOuCNr
Sparkles the briny main, and the vex'd ocean fries. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAlPp7nibbdt
Exact in time, with equal strokes they row: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAM3hG7Y524i
At once the brushing oars and brazen prow 1298Please respect copyright.PENANALF8f2ho4Sb
Dash up the sandy waves, and ope the depths below. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAoy4LEFhzhD
Not fiery coursers, in a chariot race, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAiAOarBsfuJ
Invade the field with half so swift a pace; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAVgyS6FVbDY
Not the fierce driver with more fury lends 1298Please respect copyright.PENANACwmDcKZWEv
The sounding lash, and, ere the stroke descends, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA69TTQfZMW7
Low to the wheels his pliant body bends. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAJSZrtv6bsk
The partial crowd their hopes and fears divide, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAzMmZC2HFzQ
And aid with eager shouts the favor'd side. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA3RCFtRbK1Q
Cries, murmurs, clamors, with a mixing sound, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAL4rXjly8t5
From woods to woods, from hills to hills rebound. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAqAka0Q2oeo
Amidst the loud applauses of the shore, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAT21yjIl04T
Gyas outstripp'd the rest, and sprung before: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAgyWfxIEK3B
Cloanthus, better mann'd, pursued him fast, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA3bcBSdL0IQ
But his o'er-masted galley check'd his haste. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAPOV8PdGFxh
The Centaur and the Dolphin brush the brine 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAwVLn6fYsgI
With equal oars, advancing in a line; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA0JvAJ4MyD3
And now the mighty Centaur seems to lead, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANABqp7UgPPjL
And now the speedy Dolphin gets ahead; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAJLDvQGbnIe
Now board to board the rival vessels row, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANATwvHOmogzY
The billows lave the skies, and ocean groans below. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAMw0mAWbmxI
They reach'd the mark. Proud Gyas and his train 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAv4q8Ukigj5
In triumph rode, the victors of the main; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAdB4reqOPWH
But, steering round, he charg'd his pilot stand 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAXZG8uAXjnN
More close to shore, and skim along the sand- 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAYtD4eLb70o
"Let others bear to sea!" Menoetes heard; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAN4o8MP1KSo
But secret shelves too cautiously he fear'd, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA5wlKRdc012
And, fearing, sought the deep; and still aloof he steer'd. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANALTBmZysj9f
With louder cries the captain call'd again: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAcQSaI6bPh4
"Bear to the rocky shore, and shun the main." 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAHLIpqywgSj
He spoke, and, speaking, at his stern he saw 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA5mzvG3dOer
The bold Cloanthus near the shelvings draw. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAtlX5UVOeFO
Betwixt the mark and him the Scylla stood, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAo58ANXCFm9
And in a closer compass plow'd the flood. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANACxTXeuySoN
He pass'd the mark; and, wheeling, got before: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAQuiqTK6m5u
Gyas blasphem'd the gods, devoutly swore, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAiSuDQblNEy
Cried out for anger, and his hair he tore. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA1WagYc5G8I
Mindless of others' lives (so high was grown 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA3Y3A0JuNSz
His rising rage) and careless of his own, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAPgSI8xv3ZJ
The trembling dotard to the deck he drew; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAPv7jRW6USu
Then hoisted up, and overboard he threw: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAvQIt8D4Jai
This done, he seiz'd the helm; his fellows cheer'd, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAEPxgRYtTO6
Turn'd short upon the shelfs, and madly steer'd. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA5LtL48e4dE
Hardly his head the plunging pilot rears, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAl8kfu3NQ7Q
Clogg'd with his clothes, and cumber'd with his years: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANATtoQ4DpcQg
Now dropping wet, he climbs the cliff with pain. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANApr6gPpkXC1
The crowd, that saw him fall and float again, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAprPZWFFgTQ
Shout from the distant shore; and loudly laugh'd, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANACixdAbvX1y
To see his heaving breast disgorge the briny draught. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAYDVi0LQ2yr
The following Centaur, and the Dolphin's crew, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA1F7UoW9vZk
Their vanish'd hopes of victory renew; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAnFfSYXNSFI
While Gyas lags, they kindle in the race, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAqy79TzaFeo
To reach the mark. Sergesthus takes the place; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAg8ZHkko5kd
Mnestheus pursues; and while around they wind, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAV2YvDQ5H4z
Comes up, not half his galley's length behind; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAEQiuTfgu12
Then, on the deck, amidst his mates appear'd, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANACmIN8DS4va
And thus their drooping courage he cheer'd: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAzf317A7uVo
"My friends, and Hector's followers heretofore, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAfS2LmQuzdO
Exert your vigor; tug the lab'ring oar; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAiOh2emYYI3
Stretch to your strokes, my still unconquer'd crew, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAJ3w33t22hk
Whom from the flaming walls of Troy I drew. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAppYTjjyC3V
In this, our common int'rest, let me find 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAfT9MzoBd3S
That strength of hand, that courage of the mind, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA0jfGgHt1AS
As when you stemm'd the strong Malean flood, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAuLjzQs4yii
And o'er the Syrtes' broken billows row'd. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAmRyfDZ7D1C
I seek not now the foremost palm to gain; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA4darBjUE07
Tho' yet- but, ah! that haughty wish is vain! 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAzilQKWkYVp
Let those enjoy it whom the gods ordain. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAu2SnSnwSp4
But to be last, the lags of all the race!- 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAGwUxivxG9H
Redeem yourselves and me from that disgrace." 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAFYGMgXXCwb
Now, one and all, they tug amain; they row 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAgClCClSNpC
At the full stretch, and shake the brazen prow. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA9NTYrmfKRD
The sea beneath 'em sinks; their lab'ring sides 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAWvG5iwzMti
Are swell'd, and sweat runs gutt'ring down in tides. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAPaY8s30mzF
Chance aids their daring with unhop'd success; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAPbL8vqi5oo
Sergesthus, eager with his beak to press 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAhmnZhBYQ4M
Betwixt the rival galley and the rock, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAp0BTNVx879
Shuts up th' unwieldly Centaur in the lock. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAok3hH0OIAS
The vessel struck; and, with the dreadful shock, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAduHGbkn0IV
Her oars she shiver'd, and her head she broke. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAjHJ1867EMQ
The trembling rowers from their banks arise, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAXbEaUBkqiD
And, anxious for themselves, renounce the prize. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA79NruVOw2e
With iron poles they heave her off the shores, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAZBqYnLTZk8
And gather from the sea their floating oars. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAlknWGesIv7
The crew of Mnestheus, with elated minds, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAtEc26NYHPm
Urge their success, and call the willing winds; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAtwbxZo613M
Then ply their oars, and cut their liquid way 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAcaABp96JWV
In larger compass on the roomy sea. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAXArvXfw4lG
As, when the dove her rocky hold forsakes, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA1uoyQJ1Bfo
Rous'd in a fright, her sounding wings she shakes; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAlsLicjoFSx
The cavern rings with clatt'ring; out she flies, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAjkHNRPXzvT
And leaves her callow care, and cleaves the skies: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA4MGFGZgeuq
At first she flutters; but at length she springs 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAy0wLZWg2tw
To smoother flight, and shoots upon her wings: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANARbCWM6edyI
So Mnestheus in the Dolphin cuts the sea; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANApo7RtiT44f
And, flying with a force, that force assists his way. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAei2Z2p8kLY
Sergesthus in the Centaur soon he pass'd, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANABnQptRdrp0
Wedg'd in the rocky shoals, and sticking fast. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANApNBKYK6elu
In vain the victor he with cries implores, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA7ziPWnkKxD
And practices to row with shatter'd oars. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAdXZY3f7S0f
Then Mnestheus bears with Gyas, and outflies: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAeqxJ1KIT8q
The ship, without a pilot, yields the prize. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAzKCmmsXrjk
Unvanquish'd Scylla now alone remains; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA0wumo06Jbu
Her he pursues, and all his vigor strains. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA85NrudiV8e
Shouts from the fav'ring multitude arise; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANARtvgmSY3a5
Applauding Echo to the shouts replies; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAHJi8K2UwuT
Shouts, wishes, and applause run rattling thro' the skies. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA8y7ckeaDuq
These clamors with disdain the Scylla heard, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAy42ArLmlnt
Much grudg'd the praise, but more the robb'd reward: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAncdRegcbO9
Resolv'd to hold their own, they mend their pace, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA3SdptP5YSl
All obstinate to die, or gain the race. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAgaJcSFz7ZH
Rais'd with success, the Dolphin swiftly ran; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAf4OMA1PmHy
For they can conquer, who believe they can. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANApG1iwM0fz3
Both urge their oars, and fortune both supplies, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAmmgXJFSLo1
And both perhaps had shar'd an equal prize; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAmwgTDINQX5
When to the seas Cloanthus holds his hands, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA9EAC4B7uY3
And succor from the wat'ry pow'rs demands: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAeKL5eWob3W
"Gods of the liquid realms, on which I row! 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA8knCyZ2ODU
If, giv'n by you, the laurel bind my brow, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAewQrVDBaqb
Assist to make me guilty of my vow! 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA74nKMCXlrX
A snow-white bull shall on your shore be slain; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAnLECQVP9XX
His offer'd entrails cast into the main, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAPAjhCUw3Cx
And ruddy wine, from golden goblets thrown, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAUVwH4kN2ro
Your grateful gift and my return shall own." 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA1abXRZFpAO
The choir of nymphs, and Phorcus, from below, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAteWvsdsVbO
With virgin Panopea, heard his vow; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAWoeSsUPoJ0
And old Portunus, with his breadth of hand, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAi4AeXMqgTo
Push'd on, and sped the galley to the land. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANATz5HJ1uzJN
Swift as a shaft, or winged wind, she flies, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAEyi5lMlmfs
And, darting to the port, obtains the prize. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAtjKCkGvoVR
The herald summons all, and then proclaims 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA2gYRnChImq
Cloanthus conqu'ror of the naval games. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA0Ha8qn6hZX
The prince with laurel crowns the victor's head, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAcim6kJFuDH
And three fat steers are to his vessel led, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAvegcKKooU0
The ship's reward; with gen'rous wine beside, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA3hYmfSiGQB
And sums of silver, which the crew divide. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAbnb1Pf4HFg
The leaders are distinguish'd from the rest; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAtUQxEuHLkZ
The victor honor'd with a nobler vest, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA7k1DqCUb6J
Where gold and purple strive in equal rows, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAQOnbY2KwE4
And needlework its happy cost bestows. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAuWqkzsmeRX
There Ganymede is wrought with living art, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAnJJqsq0G8o
Chasing thro' Ida's groves the trembling hart: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANALIqHKmJT15
Breathless he seems, yet eager to pursue; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA04XQIrfkDu
When from aloft descends, in open view, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAU2wTzpUQl3
The bird of Jove, and, sousing on his prey, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAmfSoitnJzO
With crooked talons bears the boy away. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAAe6IQ1XjNr
In vain, with lifted hands and gazing eyes, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANARpk9TRaDiv
His guards behold him soaring thro' the skies, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAiVekEa0LiS
And dogs pursue his flight with imitated cries. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAmgWY5TPfma
Mnestheus the second victor was declar'd; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAha1MGpgucq
And, summon'd there, the second prize he shard. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAsmIxB17xWe
A coat of mail, brave Demoleus bore, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAxqn0fgS925
More brave Aeneas from his shoulders tore, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAAApVyLpsGY
In single combat on the Trojan shore: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAEZtmDfOBSq
This was ordain'd for Mnestheus to possess; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAnHe2dlwrhY
In war for his defense, for ornament in peace. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAadm578agLZ
Rich was the gift, and glorious to behold, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAFvZpBaLMuF
But yet so pond'rous with its plates of gold, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANARiXnxY7iK9
That scarce two servants could the weight sustain; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA5jDqBW3VHP
Yet, loaded thus, Demoleus o'er the plain 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAxp9oa49IEW
Pursued and lightly seiz'd the Trojan train. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAHAnKTRqJHX
The third, succeeding to the last reward, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAmW8gytTFaq
Two goodly bowls of massy silver shar'd, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAKSZhTKG8ht
With figures prominent, and richly wrought, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAYlKC2wMWvx
And two brass caldrons from Dodona brought. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAt5oaW8jHI6
Thus all, rewarded by the hero's hands, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAIK3uJm5yH2
Their conqu'ring temples bound with purple bands; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAIk81MLlm2o
And now Sergesthus, clearing from the rock, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAoqGrLsSopq
Brought back his galley shatter'd with the shock. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAiDASH05uIl
Forlorn she look'd, without an aiding oar, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA9ZP95Vt7Ae
And, houted by the vulgar, made to shore. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAX81tzWoRbB
As when a snake, surpris'd upon the road, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAw6KkiX6nJg
Is crush'd athwart her body by the load 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAdA2JKN5Cw6
Of heavy wheels; or with a mortal wound 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAhqR4IjKLFc
Her belly bruis'd, and trodden to the ground: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANApvDloCuZX1
In vain, with loosen'd curls, she crawls along; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAIBRg3St9c5
Yet, fierce above, she brandishes her tongue; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAR3ZkY2Eho5
Glares with her eyes, and bristles with her scales; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAGLHmsei9QY
But, groveling in the dust, her parts unsound she trails: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAIQeoqb8aiW
So slowly to the port the Centaur tends, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAgNybf0sptX
But, what she wants in oars, with sails amends. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAhx19jUzj3g
Yet, for his galley sav'd, the grateful prince 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAsbRPqs5JPS
Is pleas'd th' unhappy chief to recompense. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAQUV3HB3Qnk
Pholoe, the Cretan slave, rewards his care, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAJVndAWspxd
Beauteous herself, with lovely twins as fair. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAa8ZwTzHQ8u
From thence his way the Trojan hero bent 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAsnVA6xaiy3
Into the neighb'ring plain, with mountains pent, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAoRrrZ1i45W
Whose sides were shaded with surrounding wood. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAuKPpL0V9iP
Full in the midst of this fair valley stood 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA4e4biEfLJa
A native theater, which, rising slow 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAIfc4kOa6Gu
By just degrees, o'erlook'd the ground below. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAqMX6lRwck4
High on a sylvan throne the leader sate; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAAs4i27SJtW
A num'rous train attend in solemn state. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANACIYEP3nweT
Here those that in the rapid course delight, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAOvFeBusonK
Desire of honor and the prize invite. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAVx876TZXnv
The rival runners without order stand; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA2U56mMAsbq
The Trojans mix'd with the Sicilian band. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA2x1GFFNC78
First Nisus, with Euryalus, appears; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAj16Qa67i4O
Euryalus a boy of blooming years, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANARtTxiLt6de
With sprightly grace and equal beauty crown'd; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAkrdisaKbMv
Nisus, for friendship to the youth renown'd. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAn1JZ0RZVDr
Diores next, of Priam's royal race, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA9hyY8qxO6z
Then Salius joined with Patron, took their place; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAEHzILo1ScO
(But Patron in Arcadia had his birth, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAPJpp05ATNn
And Salius his from Arcananian earth;) 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAahwmFVlQV0
Then two Sicilian youths- the names of these, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAg5W0BMc2bk
Swift Helymus, and lovely Panopes: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA2v2xmYa389
Both jolly huntsmen, both in forest bred, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAaIuPdgiMX9
And owning old Acestes for their head; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAQizsDnlOsd
With sev'ral others of ignobler name, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANACWcTWesvsp
Whom time has not deliver'd o'er to fame. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAJNcNJPBzJQ
To these the hero thus his thoughts explain'd, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAhRR1KK0VEu
In words which gen'ral approbation gain'd: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAawPN9j5hVh
"One common largess is for all design'd, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAKf83XGYf30
(The vanquish'd and the victor shall be join'd,) 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAxWiG1FCPVK
Two darts of polish'd steel and Gnosian wood, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAz293KnQtDa
A silver-studded ax, alike bestow'd. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAXbWwr4Z8RU
The foremost three have olive wreaths decreed: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAiuQgNSyO7n
The first of these obtains a stately steed, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAEbrEM8D1IM
Adorn'd with trappings; and the next in fame, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA2hvI7TW4Hz
The quiver of an Amazonian dame, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANATBOghX70tk
With feather'd Thracian arrows well supplied: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAHzpQCafCrK
A golden belt shall gird his manly side, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAS2z9JQ1m8W
Which with a sparkling diamond shall be tied. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAu33bFVNUtj
The third this Grecian helmet shall content." 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAUbEl9trQ37
He said. To their appointed base they went; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA9IL3LqonW8
With beating hearts th' expected sign receive, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAx8xiy8SVxk
And, starting all at once, the barrier leave. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA8cA6DSg4Jk
Spread out, as on the winged winds, they flew, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAup7XdxROTi
And seiz'd the distant goal with greedy view. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAZDKcOCWWbq
Shot from the crowd, swift Nisus all o'erpass'd; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAW0PjxkoVyf
Nor storms, nor thunder, equal half his haste. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAOU3g49u6Q1
The next, but tho' the next, yet far disjoin'd, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANANz4crJo2RS
Came Salius, and Euryalus behind; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAwWJlSvajOD
Then Helymus, whom young Diores plied, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA0nx1OvOjFp
Step after step, and almost side by side, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA4tyi0CJPTl
His shoulders pressing; and, in longer space, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAGUyRK911Ht
Had won, or left at least a dubious race. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA1XvE6yvg43
Now, spent, the goal they almost reach at last, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAVOAdzlHNBF
When eager Nisus, hapless in his haste, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAqsbAJTDOVt
Slipp'd first, and, slipping, fell upon the plain, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAJ1XrQbMlWA
Soak'd with the blood of oxen newly slain. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANARkGGFq7KUt
The careless victor had not mark'd his way; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANASqfdB5oBCu
But, treading where the treach'rous puddle lay, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA0gOwzJFJ3E
His heels flew up; and on the grassy floor 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAMXDF5aOS2S
He fell, besmear'd with filth and holy gore. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA5IO2tfhM5L
Not mindless then, Euryalus, of thee, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAK8kxQpbeom
Nor of the sacred bonds of amity, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA8vlw4FdJPi
He strove th' immediate rival's hope to cross, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANARkzNGYqQ9a
And caught the foot of Salius as he rose. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANApZfEn1Lplt
So Salius lay extended on the plain; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAFZwdbOQHqT
Euryalus springs out, the prize to gain, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANANP3kQN4g3R
And leaves the crowd: applauding peals attend 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAUq4n6hIHSm
The victor to the goal, who vanquish'd by his friend. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAJGF36dyXyo
Next Helymus; and then Diores came, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA0RWRBUvvPg
By two misfortunes made the third in fame. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA4zFRiJ8e6J
But Salius enters, and, exclaiming loud 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAJ4DCYx5Jgo
For justice, deafens and disturbs the crowd; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANASwO5Iu8YeR
Urges his cause may in the court be heard; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANABwsuYYGWS0
And pleads the prize is wrongfully conferr'd. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAieLokalQXQ
But favor for Euryalus appears; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAShjzJRJu4O
His blooming beauty, with his tender tears, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAYHP3UMvTPS
Had brib'd the judges for the promis'd prize. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAKjjox0uWQr
Besides, Diores fills the court with cries, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAUx0SbeAn5f
Who vainly reaches at the last reward, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAqHUpF9WVNZ
If the first palm on Salius be conferr'd. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAcOgBGpBP32
Then thus the prince: "Let no disputes arise: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAGV6kiKcpkQ
Where fortune plac'd it, I award the prize. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANATjN1kPh4J7
But fortune's errors give me leave to mend, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAAyaZQXNskz
At least to pity my deserving friend." 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA9N9yvMlH9p
He said, and, from among the spoils, he draws 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA5P7wZAVEcS
(Pond'rous with shaggy mane and golden paws) 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAOVlps8AIqh
A lion's hide: to Salius this he gives. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAFeLCRD4TqG
Nisus with envy sees the gift, and grieves. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA01PFEiyZnz
"If such rewards to vanquish'd men are due." 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAQ7DXA9pHFI
He said, "and falling is to rise by you, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAzXaH1Fiiys
What prize may Nisus from your bounty claim, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAKtKDF9qDNn
Who merited the first rewards and fame? 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAvCoEEpGaAU
In falling, both an equal fortune tried; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAVIeIjMNMmC
Would fortune for my fall so well provide!" 1298Please respect copyright.PENANARrjvtwuZ7J
With this he pointed to his face, and show'd 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA2HKqzuSk4N
His hand and all his habit smear'd with blood. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA7RecUMWsLe
Th' indulgent father of the people smil'd, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA2GT96Q8kKi
And caus'd to be produc'd an ample shield, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAQnltlxPfVw
Of wondrous art, by Didymaon wrought, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAzlFpFHajwH
Long since from Neptune's bars in triumph brought. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAamNoJSJqQM
This giv'n to Nisus, he divides the rest, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA4yCdJARAZW
And equal justice in his gifts express'd. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAD0me2VXALn
The race thus ended, and rewards bestow'd, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA3WNE1TUiFS
Once more the princes bespeaks th' attentive crowd: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAR2EM7ZK81J
"If there he here whose dauntless courage dare 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAvb9wis0OBV
In gauntlet-fight, with limbs and body bare, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANArhApR4rmAD
His opposite sustain in open view, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAgnF0Y42tAg
Stand forth the champion, and the games renew. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAYiRTg6x5Ib
Two prizes I propose, and thus divide: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAVOBsQhbz22
A bull with gilded horns, and fillets tied, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAAwvqHMUTc0
Shall be the portion of the conqu'ring chief; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANADBir39TNj7
A sword and helm shall cheer the loser's grief." 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAXNDg0j1l70
Then haughty Dares in the lists appears; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANATfMsf5bpT3
Stalking he strides, his head erected bears: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAJgqTR7G0wL
His nervous arms the weighty gauntlet wield, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANArQPU24DxMA
And loud applauses echo thro' the field. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAsXstg8L5Bt
Dares alone in combat us'd to stand 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAsbGpVc01Dt
The match of mighty Paris, hand to hand; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAByad6ATU3r
The same, at Hector's fun'rals, undertook 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAoyIfkHaOzJ
Gigantic Butes, of th' Amycian stock, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAGEjcDCRDvW
And, by the stroke of his resistless hand, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANANiCRacyvvA
Stretch'd the vast bulk upon the yellow sand. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAWhzSaSGPij
Such Dares was; and such he strode along, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAoievgFquRr
And drew the wonder of the gazing throng. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA6Svq887Svs
His brawny back and ample breast he shows, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAwAsqe42vsi
His lifted arms around his head he throws, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAoFn9Ba7ZcX
And deals in whistling air his empty blows. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAs7ODY4Lkeg
His match is sought; but, thro' the trembling band, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA9jxCpO7jv1
Not one dares answer to the proud demand. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAWXxDeIKXJa
Presuming of his force, with sparkling eyes 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAf1PhKGtVU9
Already he devours the promis'd prize. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAhGiWipIvRa
He claims the bull with awless insolence, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA5iOZu8yko2
And having seiz'd his horns, accosts the prince: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAKq09R6Vyc5
"If none my matchless valor dares oppose, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA0LwJjDvdI7
How long shall Dares wait his dastard foes? 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAHJJQn6RhpM
Permit me, chief, permit without delay, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAyZOKQL80fH
To lead this uncontended gift away." 1298Please respect copyright.PENANASXaGw4V3Mp
The crowd assents, and with redoubled cries 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAr6Zrf1Y7bb
For the proud challenger demands the prize. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAjXzPPjXZ3X
Acestes, fir'd with just disdain, to see 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAXAK4CyDQ2n
The palm usurp'd without a victory, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAExGEAV0YXo
Reproach'd Entellus thus, who sate beside, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANArpMB8YriNs
And heard and saw, unmov'd, the Trojan's pride: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA6PFdKPzCOe
"Once, but in vain, a champion of renown, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAZcbmypIeDF
So tamely can you bear the ravish'd crown, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAWgFOLtO9vW
A prize in triumph borne before your sight, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANApmsSoNy9HH
And shun, for fear, the danger of the fight? 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAh8M6IQxxpC
Where is our Eryx now, the boasted name, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAWf1sFfXo7y
The god who taught your thund'ring arm the game? 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAALQJp2bZj4
Where now your baffled honor? Where the spoil 1298Please respect copyright.PENANABkpalX5O8W
That fill'd your house, and fame that fill'd our isle?" 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAaIKMpPHP36
Entellus, thus: "My soul is still the same, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAYTzpgU4fJ0
Unmov'd with fear, and mov'd with martial fame; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA96XaTK0WNM
But my chill blood is curdled in my veins, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAZAWC6LoA5e
And scarce the shadow of a man remains. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA8UCv40Tz1T
O could I turn to that fair prime again, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANARl1OkG17iz
That prime of which this boaster is so vain, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANASGkpApKKS6
The brave, who this decrepid age defies, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAhRIXivt95k
Should feel my force, without the promis'd prize." 1298Please respect copyright.PENANATBmWAdrZ9d
He said; and, rising at the word, he threw 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAqGDJ12o81h
Two pond'rous gauntlets down in open view; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAsiCPhT42hz
Gauntlets which Eryx wont in fight to wield, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANATqwS2Lx20X
And sheathe his hands with in the listed field. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA5ohOPD0x5Q
With fear and wonder seiz'd, the crowd beholds 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAwRm56YlhP0
The gloves of death, with sev'n distinguish'd folds 1298Please respect copyright.PENANANlwboeWY4S
Of tough bull hides; the space within is spread 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAzV1JEqE0Zk
With iron, or with loads of heavy lead: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA3ymN9zHTZy
Dares himself was daunted at the sight, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAPEgebx37ln
Renounc'd his challenge, and refus'd to fight. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAi9AWGkJy6I
Astonish'd at their weight, the hero stands, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAdLGi5A9uZy
And pois'd the pond'rous engines in his hands. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAg5advJrYFc
"What had your wonder," said Entellus, "been, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAaR6qd3pI9E
Had you the gauntlets of Alcides seen, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA3Yo8b3Fh7n
Or view'd the stern debate on this unhappy green! 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA1wTI10z1L2
These which I bear your brother Eryx bore, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAnghbMPcPy0
Still mark'd with batter'd brains and mingled gore. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAK5rggte4Df
With these he long sustain'd th' Herculean arm; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANALc4JHXdct9
And these I wielded while my blood was warm, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA1gI36vVz4W
This languish'd frame while better spirits fed, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA0nAnEGQ939
Ere age unstrung my nerves, or time o'ersnow'd my head. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAcMekoGBbue
But if the challenger these arms refuse, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAWQMd5oHtMO
And cannot wield their weight, or dare not use; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA8qHW8iFaFn
If great Aeneas and Acestes join 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAVLPgxiJBzf
In his request, these gauntlets I resign; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAYOGVc926GY
Let us with equal arms perform the fight, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA9xJP9WfAzE
And let him leave to fear, since I resign my right." 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAdrflrxAv5F
This said, Entellus for the strife prepares; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA5sMFEgp2HV
Stripp'd of his quilted coat, his body bares; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAA2ZkmECqhB
Compos'd of mighty bones and brawn he stands, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAo6UxkqujvB
A goodly tow'ring object on the sands. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA65FaPVBbTG
Then just Aeneas equal arms supplied, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANACfGIBoXjj9
Which round their shoulders to their wrists they tied. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAPkeQYpUByK
Both on the tiptoe stand, at full extent, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAfgiesyzPw1
Their arms aloft, their bodies inly bent; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA5cvgkFWxro
Their heads from aiming blows they bear afar; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAjG0H55SJgy
With clashing gauntlets then provoke the war. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAmq69duQxnP
One on his youth and pliant limbs relies; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAT0fJ3HxUcb
One on his sinews and his giant size. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAIP5I3JxDDO
The last is stiff with age, his motion slow; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAlPnn7qyvTJ
He heaves for breath, he staggers to and fro, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAeKY0ziXsqT
And clouds of issuing smoke his nostrils loudly blow. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA2YbdJQBS5S
Yet equal in success, they ward, they strike; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAzByRo0ogub
Their ways are diff'rent, but their art alike. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAL5SQfd2071
Before, behind, the blows are dealt; around 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA2dHr0bDiwo
Their hollow sides the rattling thumps resound. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA1kcuaCyT8z
A storm of strokes, well meant, with fury flies, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAMmObLHih0g
And errs about their temples, ears, and eyes. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAi8oQgEYLLB
Nor always errs; for oft the gauntlet draws 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA3AjbJ8Iemd
A sweeping stroke along the crackling jaws. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAjg3OynTdNg
Heavy with age, Entellus stands his ground, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA5JKidGH48g
But with his warping body wards the wound. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAVqRUgqRA6t
His hand and watchful eye keep even pace; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAMzIBI0NotA
While Dares traverses and shifts his place, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA5AKRIBEtNK
And, like a captain who beleaguers round 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAyofTyCMoX3
Some strong-built castle on a rising ground, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAD3RVX00T4P
Views all th' approaches with observing eyes: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA0oGtRjJKc4
This and that other part in vain he tries, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAtpKjgsozH3
And more on industry than force relies. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAXsDDB3E5wx
With hands on high, Entellus threats the foe; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA821c3IDH0C
But Dares watch'd the motion from below, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANACKx2JaoMTQ
And slipp'd aside, and shunn'd the long descending blow. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAzCZjjctfTr
Entellus wastes his forces on the wind, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAyAxXtBZA9v
And, thus deluded of the stroke design'd, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA9Ghx18CdAH
Headlong and heavy fell; his ample breast 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAFRyK6wMAUF
And weighty limbs his ancient mother press'd. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAN5zdYCfnKw
So falls a hollow pine, that long had stood 1298Please respect copyright.PENANARluDVkdtLn
On Ida's height, or Erymanthus' wood, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAFcJtwshQf6
Torn from the roots. The diff'ring nations rise, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAV1JcHqMSth
And shouts and mingled murmurs rend the skies, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAKOqfLlDthG
Acestus runs with eager haste, to raise 1298Please respect copyright.PENANALrbN9iOGU1
The fall'n companion of his youthful days. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAv0TCEiW5aM
Dauntless he rose, and to the fight return'd; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA0TbHslmJTv
With shame his glowing cheeks, his eyes with fury burn'd. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAGZKURDgyln
Disdain and conscious virtue fir'd his breast, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAlqKiO8g2Xb
And with redoubled force his foe he press'd. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAwuGGUTnVFx
He lays on load with either hand, amain, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAK1AytigW3h
And headlong drives the Trojan o'er the plain; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA9592d8atk3
Nor stops, nor stays; nor rest nor breath allows; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA7IpDaoiDl6
But storms of strokes descend about his brows, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAqxachoMEwC
A rattling tempest, and a hail of blows. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAph0yE1WiZw
But now the prince, who saw the wild increase 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAe3vx9xC1Ur
Of wounds, commands the combatants to cease, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA3fZlhVfcPo
And bounds Entellus' wrath, and bids the peace. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAeV5G6h8hQW
First to the Trojan, spent with toil, he came, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAqDBQ2yVHM7
And sooth'd his sorrow for the suffer'd shame. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA9LgUWPLxWD
"What fury seiz'd my friend? The gods," said he, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANArXYsK89zDD
"To him propitious, and averse to thee, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAeokLyDpeJy
Have giv'n his arm superior force to thine. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAeo8labLaDy
'T is madness to contend with strength divine." 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA2Oxlh8SNoK
The gauntlet fight thus ended, from the shore 1298Please respect copyright.PENANADdV6Yc3oX1
His faithful friends unhappy Dares bore: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANANDAXvnKLTH
His mouth and nostrils pour'd a purple flood, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAq9xNYWgw60
And pounded teeth came rushing with his blood. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA5D2OGyNQMH
Faintly he stagger'd thro' the hissing throng, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAsiUcWblKIN
And hung his head, and trail'd his legs along. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAU0MGaXjITY
The sword and casque are carried by his train; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA2j8I87l39C
But with his foe the palm and ox remain. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAttAyLMCEsh
The champion, then, before Aeneas came, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAprF071Wpa8
Proud of his prize, but prouder of his fame: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAitOh7j5anV
"O goddess-born, and you, Dardanian host, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAMi4lqg3WhH
Mark with attention, and forgive my boast; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA5cmODpIf3U
Learn what I was, by what remains; and know 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAnhXkMTIKOa
From what impending fate you sav'd my foe." 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAWXqHtNAKan
Sternly he spoke, and then confronts the bull; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAHepLbpAHix
And, on his ample forehead aiming full, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAm3kv2cMWoB
The deadly stroke, descending, pierc'd the skull. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAQd6r1j6cgw
Down drops the beast, nor needs a second wound, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAgZF7Ky5cHC
But sprawls in pangs of death, and spurns the ground. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAonwf90Ka0r
Then, thus: "In Dares' stead I offer this. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAn5xEzUZK7O
Eryx, accept a nobler sacrifice; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAxE0hEzDbn0
Take the last gift my wither'd arms can yield: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAvco4KOjtyv
Thy gauntlets I resign, and here renounce the field." 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA1LpxkJ9CPA
This done, Aeneas orders, for the close, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAQn5mnQtwx3
The strife of archers with contending bows. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANATqKm45sIGd
The mast Sergesthus' shatter'd galley bore 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAfIGXJ3xdbi
With his own hands he raises on the shore. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA4OZvTxjkSm
A flutt'ring dove upon the top they tie, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAk0A9u2xOOG
The living mark at which their arrows fly. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAsqDU8vyCLI
The rival archers in a line advance, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAVWAnPj7TyU
Their turn of shooting to receive from chance. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAsbGZSUNaSP
A helmet holds their names; the lots are drawn: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA8BymNCURoS
On the first scroll was read Hippocoon. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAk37RTJoaQA
The people shout. Upon the next was found 1298Please respect copyright.PENANALuR0SnOJgu
Young Mnestheus, late with naval honors crown'd. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANABJ1sS6qJkL
The third contain'd Eurytion's noble name, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAwV8uluKtjT
Thy brother, Pandarus, and next in fame, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAI7TPcbTp8U
Whom Pallas urg'd the treaty to confound, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA7NFL4Te44f
And send among the Greeks a feather'd wound. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAeDI9atQUlR
Acestes in the bottom last remain'd, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAqdW8LWGqiz
Whom not his age from youthful sports restrain'd. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAep8qVBWGho
Soon all with vigor bend their trusty bows, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANALH3l6SNScE
And from the quiver each his arrow chose. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA4O4GRgf9V1
Hippocoon's was the first: with forceful sway 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAhehUJlTDXS
It flew, and, whizzing, cut the liquid way. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAeS0rNgXyYO
Fix'd in the mast the feather'd weapon stands: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAs65Ti8oSJH
The fearful pigeon flutters in her bands, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAKEu0B0ldo7
And the tree trembled, and the shouting cries 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA9SvbEAZYuQ
Of the pleas'd people rend the vaulted skies. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAyDORXaidn9
Then Mnestheus to the head his arrow drove, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAgfTTYMaAZw
With lifted eyes, and took his aim above, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA90hnLN7Rts
But made a glancing shot, and missed the dove; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAjXHIgHrFDH
Yet miss'd so narrow, that he cut the cord 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAW1AcPi5mTT
Which fasten'd by the foot the flitting bird. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANANuT8h6cfY7
The captive thus releas'd, away she flies, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANArua1D1zv0M
And beats with clapping wings the yielding skies. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA8CvsrFHOd6
His bow already bent, Eurytion stood; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAHwf7HZxjCC
And, having first invok'd his brother god, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAolXlOHydg4
His winged shaft with eager haste he sped. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAIfvpWhS4W2
The fatal message reach'd her as she fled: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA5NQABdhgI6
She leaves her life aloft; she strikes the ground, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAfSszhLohQO
And renders back the weapon in the wound. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANANpffBX1GeY
Acestes, grudging at his lot, remains, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA9UfWSy17RJ
Without a prize to gratify his pains. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAoUm0BbElZD
Yet, shooting upward, sends his shaft, to show 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAV8iHi4yF6a
An archer's art, and boast his twanging bow. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAlG7IIA77Ke
The feather'd arrow gave a dire portent, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANASnGZO06oo3
And latter augurs judge from this event. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAsIRvMsMV4D
Chaf'd by the speed, it fir'd; and, as it flew, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAvysNkIrlbV
A trail of following flames ascending drew: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAZB5oV2vY0Y
Kindling they mount, and mark the shiny way; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA1zf5WaItrd
Across the skies as falling meteors play, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA6LKm1UcnB9
And vanish into wind, or in a blaze decay. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAeOsMdYvZ64
The Trojans and Sicilians wildly stare, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANADB7jejui8z
And, trembling, turn their wonder into pray'r. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAXyFVjQxtok
The Dardan prince put on a smiling face, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANApgbRPUpTmZ
And strain'd Acestes with a close embrace; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAIbkpikXfUd
Then, hon'ring him with gifts above the rest, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAKzEuCW8EDZ
Turn'd the bad omen, nor his fears confess'd. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA5SAYzC38Tn
"The gods," said he, "this miracle have wrought, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAmrYBTTnmXa
And order'd you the prize without the lot. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAjlXfufO4Yo
Accept this goblet, rough with figur'd gold, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAkhrmjavs9M
Which Thracian Cisseus gave my sire of old: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAkhpeMOkbEw
This pledge of ancient amity receive, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA4MIq89rJm4
Which to my second sire I justly give." 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAqXVKYSAYij
He said, and, with the trumpets' cheerful sound, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANArH44C0BMM4
Proclaim'd him victor, and with laurel-crown'd. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAxPZL2XsShR
Nor good Eurytion envied him the prize, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA2pyNLyth3n
Tho' he transfix'd the pigeon in the skies. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAgZ4aoELxu3
Who cut the line, with second gifts was grac'd; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAM2SlmTwCRV
The third was his whose arrow pierc'd the mast. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA24nGf4G9SR
The chief, before the games were wholly done, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAfnU1EVwL2Y
Call'd Periphantes, tutor to his son, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAIUVcuGD9ea
And whisper'd thus: "With speed Ascanius find; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAu8BYTmC1ur
And, if his childish troop be ready join'd, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAn3sLfdac97
On horseback let him grace his grandsire's day, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANACACx545rBo
And lead his equals arm'd in just array." 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAH6rlCj8Lyk
He said; and, calling out, the cirque he clears. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAsVF3ZeWt7P
The crowd withdrawn, an open plain appears. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAUWGY2T2qYN
And now the noble youths, of form divine, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAZozQCGvsR0
Advance before their fathers, in a line; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAiuvqJaGarv
The riders grace the steeds; the steeds with glory shine. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAtHs9znWagC
Thus marching on in military pride, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANARY9EUjJ10P
Shouts of applause resound from side to side. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAUWyHRoGrat
Their casques adorn'd with laurel wreaths they wear, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAP4gtnKTVDg
Each brandishing aloft a cornel spear. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAIORECUi1LG
Some at their backs their gilded quivers bore; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA3VjbJLCtHP
Their chains of burnish'd gold hung down before. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAIIb5eOMpa3
Three graceful troops they form'd upon the green; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANASxE9IRuHm0
Three graceful leaders at their head were seen; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANADwXK4N8WuO
Twelve follow'd ev'ry chief, and left a space between. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAkr1yfkjrfd
The first young Priam led; a lovely boy, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAoVXMRzfmEc
Whose grandsire was th' unhappy king of Troy; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANActtPyG38Ge
His race in after times was known to fame, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAfoEDnWzhfR
New honors adding to the Latian name; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAu6zoNDo6Rq
And well the royal boy his Thracian steed became. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA6wuamT1WYS
White were the fetlocks of his feet before, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANARm1LSEO6uG
And on his front a snowy star he bore. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA4KBpI8H6Nh
Then beauteous Atys, with Iulus bred, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAI07SaXUFQf
Of equal age, the second squadron led. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAl14vete98T
The last in order, but the first in place, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAyBUsoNIYsj
First in the lovely features of his face, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAiqFOsAWDP8
Rode fair Ascanius on a fiery steed, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANARtPEdXVBT5
Queen Dido's gift, and of the Tyrian breed. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAnAablrswMj
Sure coursers for the rest the king ordains, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAREHFioSKuS
With golden bits adorn'd, and purple reins. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAGs4mkhryTF
The pleas'd spectators peals of shouts renew, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANACXmZDo3f5v
And all the parents in the children view; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAhJFnxKJ4M1
Their make, their motions, and their sprightly grace, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANADqHjIDMgdm
And hopes and fears alternate in their face. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAxpsvakg2uq
Th' unfledg'd commanders and their martial train 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAPSP9ptfxu1
First make the circuit of the sandy plain 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAligPsHq9to
Around their sires, and, at th' appointed sign, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA9RMPefrqyF
Drawn up in beauteous order, form a line. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAR3krvaYbNM
The second signal sounds, the troop divides 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAxahIV6iFfU
In three distinguish'd parts, with three distinguish'd guides 1298Please respect copyright.PENANATaQOugrmzl
Again they close, and once again disjoin; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA9zjfX006ay
In troop to troop oppos'd, and line to line. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA6xLwdeGECh
They meet; they wheel; they throw their darts afar 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAVYIEW6BndQ
With harmless rage and well-dissembled war. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANACIjJuwg7C1
Then in a round the mingled bodies run: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAoxHmifnVBC
Flying they follow, and pursuing shun; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAEI2uwYsT2N
Broken, they break; and, rallying, they renew 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAtCSQ1Rw8FS
In other forms the military shew. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAM9X7t7b0cc
At last, in order, undiscern'd they join, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAn9XNfLWBlZ
And march together in a friendly line. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAUOTU0vxwmv
And, as the Cretan labyrinth of old, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAks5UmhV5TT
With wand'ring ways and many a winding fold, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAnguVhr7caQ
Involv'd the weary feet, without redress, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA1vyKA5AvmC
In a round error, which denied recess; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAonyBMOn0Yj
So fought the Trojan boys in warlike play, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAiYCqJHC9Ca
Turn'd and return'd, and still a diff'rent way. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAP75ceRRdI7
Thus dolphins in the deep each other chase 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAoN7pAuMsml
In circles, when they swim around the wat'ry race. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA9EcQwQGwd7
This game, these carousels, Ascanius taught; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAOpgoyZbXbR
And, building Alba, to the Latins brought; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANADQMYpK5UmD
Shew'd what he learn'd: the Latin sires impart 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAk9LTg9iazM
To their succeeding sons the graceful art; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAPJhTKbCOjJ
From these imperial Rome receiv'd the game, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA5C2MlGA5uI
Which Troy, the youths the Trojan troop, they name. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAgemXn2kJhr
Thus far the sacred sports they celebrate: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAzA0zspZwN7
But Fortune soon resum'd her ancient hate; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA4SakLkwoZD
For, while they pay the dead his annual dues, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAsu9j9ZgE7F
Those envied rites Saturnian Juno views; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA8jGLrxgPjs
And sends the goddess of the various bow, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAiieqFo5X7N
To try new methods of revenge below; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA5CzOw4qf6g
Supplies the winds to wing her airy way, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAwfRR6B8uha
Where in the port secure the navy lay. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANANHNUIzoucc
Swiftly fair Iris down her arch descends, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAxquIeRQOH5
And, undiscern'd, her fatal voyage ends. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAmEm3CgqgSV
She saw the gath'ring crowd; and, gliding thence, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAjTRXpvGHZz
The desart shore, and fleet without defense. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAui03Ol8aO8
The Trojan matrons, on the sands alone, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA7Iz576MDVT
With sighs and tears Anchises' death bemoan; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAhKS3GKMc34
Then, turning to the sea their weeping eyes, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAHFyOGy0UE6
Their pity to themselves renews their cries. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAF9efOTbzQ8
"Alas!" said one, "what oceans yet remain 1298Please respect copyright.PENANASoRiqmEcuh
For us to sail! what labors to sustain!" 1298Please respect copyright.PENANATyIFriE01b
All take the word, and, with a gen'ral groan, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAkj1stHhQRA
Implore the gods for peace, and places of their own. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAD9cP71siph
The goddess, great in mischief, views their pains, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAkN41svSQDM
And in a woman's form her heav'nly limbs restrains. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANANCyGXWhgV0
In face and shape old Beroe she became, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAo6IMEljgWy
Doryclus' wife, a venerable dame, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA49Kj6ZRBME
Once blest with riches, and a mother's name. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAgQK3QerJ5U
Thus chang'd, amidst the crying crowd she ran, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA3hQKQXWeDs
Mix'd with the matrons, and these words began: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAYp5n2IoeYw
"O wretched we, whom not the Grecian pow'r, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAZjIfjzUe74
Nor flames, destroy'd, in Troy's unhappy hour! 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA2WkvlqH6eC
O wretched we, reserv'd by cruel fate, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAbAxYndKsAb
Beyond the ruins of the sinking state! 1298Please respect copyright.PENANANt2FzhVqsw
Now sev'n revolving years are wholly run, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA8xB1W73ItQ
Since this improsp'rous voyage we begun; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAh9925gBtGW
Since, toss'd from shores to shores, from lands to lands, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAbS5BpEbohy
Inhospitable rocks and barren sands, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAJkmQU426bP
Wand'ring in exile thro' the stormy sea, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAQfhMW2NEKH
We search in vain for flying Italy. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAXXWnZPPmkf
Now cast by fortune on this kindred land, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAiRhhBnExZG
What should our rest and rising walls withstand, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAnBkiZzFnfF
Or hinder here to fix our banish'd band? 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAlUWOCaouwe
O country lost, and gods redeem'd in vain, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAkobw35t188
If still in endless exile we remain! 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAtI5ViwSVSY
Shall we no more the Trojan walls renew, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANATHvD6Z90OD
Or streams of some dissembled Simois view! 1298Please respect copyright.PENANASuG6J7nI9v
Haste, join with me, th' unhappy fleet consume! 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAmTE5NxIO5H
Cassandra bids; and I declare her doom. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANALG0ZUhyGp2
In sleep I saw her; she supplied my hands 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAIDROgpGLa9
(For this I more than dreamt) with flaming brands: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAyEN9pzVZoC
'With these,' said she, 'these wand'ring ships destroy: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA6ejoIZTa5z
These are your fatal seats, and this your Troy.' 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAlhqNRa3Jty
Time calls you now; the precious hour employ: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAaS4SUaoNMv
Slack not the good presage, while Heav'n inspires 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAul1QCsRkII
Our minds to dare, and gives the ready fires. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAQYptHu1qit
See! Neptune's altars minister their brands: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAoi11SVUvE6
The god is pleas'd; the god supplies our hands." 1298Please respect copyright.PENANARcJQmOoLRG
Then from the pile a flaming fire she drew, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANApjHutyVMT0
And, toss'd in air, amidst the galleys threw. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAze5HmOKLEi
Wrapp'd in amaze, the matrons wildly stare: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAGAvKvQq5PT
Then Pyrgo, reverenc'd for her hoary hair, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA4Ig97tvvBv
Pyrgo, the nurse of Priam's num'rous race: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAMQ34vricU4
"No Beroe this, tho' she belies her face! 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAYZe3Cw6wPP
What terrors from her frowning front arise! 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAQQh3Q8dUbH
Behold a goddess in her ardent eyes! 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAvXWsX01IGp
What rays around her heav'nly face are seen! 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAfHIuaqKqbG
Mark her majestic voice, and more than mortal mien! 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAN1BzQZJQkc
Beroe but now I left, whom, pin'd with pain, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAfCfLYnUmKn
Her age and anguish from these rites detain," 1298Please respect copyright.PENANALDNtMPE93t
She said. The matrons, seiz'd with new amaze, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAFww5iKWsoP
Roll their malignant eyes, and on the navy gaze. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAWVIU0e0mc0
They fear, and hope, and neither part obey: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAKs3MUoyfp7
They hope the fated land, but fear the fatal way. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAlIUDyOZI5x
The goddess, having done her task below, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAAbkY2oJaLD
Mounts up on equal wings, and bends her painted bow. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAsEk2GXTKP0
Struck with the sight, and seiz'd with rage divine, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAFQk952d928
The matrons prosecute their mad design: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA4DeVYCZeqa
They shriek aloud; they snatch, with impious hands, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAeLeYz6VMD4
The food of altars; fires and flaming brands. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAS97Gxp6OSE
Green boughs and saplings, mingled in their haste, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAM8AB5FKbIl
And smoking torches, on the ships they cast. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA4zvH6jR0Lk
The flame, unstopp'd at first, more fury gains, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAbGHKE2Ofsi
And Vulcan rides at large with loosen'd reins: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAr9yj7brAPm
Triumphant to the painted sterns he soars, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAAkzx41we6z
And seizes, in this way, the banks and crackling oars. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANANt1dF58WH3
Eumelus was the first the news to bear, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAn9wiRmVR7Z
While yet they crowd the rural theater. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAwqgpXHM7Cu
Then, what they hear, is witness'd by their eyes: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANASVu7pTwZx9
A storm of sparkles and of flames arise. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAtrPbPUluM5
Ascanius took th' alarm, while yet he led 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAaEDXXrcof0
His early warriors on his prancing steed, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAc9QUGKuVQy
And, spurring on, his equals soon o'erpass'd; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAyGKxgIuW14
Nor could his frighted friends reclaim his haste. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAr3ppe2VTxk
Soon as the royal youth appear'd in view, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAgGn3kYQdk7
He sent his voice before him as he flew: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAWx0YFCNcUZ
"What madness moves you, matrons, to destroy 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAGVCTNCsPks
The last remainders of unhappy Troy! 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAxS9iZGfLcQ
Not hostile fleets, but your own hopes, you burn, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAE4HDbVQQOw
And on your friends your fatal fury turn. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAriESGfV8p6
Behold your own Ascanius!" While he said, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANACHF5ltqdAX
He drew his glitt'ring helmet from his head, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAHqCAvyGyCo
In which the youths to sportful arms he led. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANASYG9aGy9yH
By this, Aeneas and his train appear; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAmRxbuVVFif
And now the women, seiz'd with shame and fear, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANALKOKRC2lld
Dispers'd, to woods and caverns take their flight, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANApph5YrsGdp
Abhor their actions, and avoid the light; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAsOjiX8xwRn
Their friends acknowledge, and their error find, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAa6ruMy8CeO
And shake the goddess from their alter'd mind. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAhOA41sXZju
Not so the raging fires their fury cease, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAkp2U0JTfWJ
But, lurking in the seams, with seeming peace, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA0S6vPzIA3n
Work on their way amid the smold'ring tow, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAu0VySxO8GH
Sure in destruction, but in motion slow. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANALWwXNYPWkc
The silent plague thro' the green timber eats, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAE0BBcJ4cka
And vomits out a tardy flame by fits. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAOpFh76GZxb
Down to the keels, and upward to the sails, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA0MCcLuQLU4
The fire descends, or mounts, but still prevails; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAJFtbOB0dXh
Nor buckets pour'd, nor strength of human hand, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAOdwsUvH7VR
Can the victorious element withstand. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAKgWXuhw2uU
The pious hero rends his robe, and throws 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAG3oNgxg4Uw
To heav'n his hands, and with his hands his vows. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAB4mmn6ONZU
"O Jove," he cried, "if pray'rs can yet have place; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAS9xaLftCqc
If thou abhorr'st not all the Dardan race; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAWJSbgJsYxd
If any spark of pity still remain; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA3IdPILCYNK
If gods are gods, and not invok'd in vain; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAl3Qr7Ym7Cx
Yet spare the relics of the Trojan train! 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAOzwxNh15AX
Yet from the flames our burning vessels free, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA0DPPOvSgLr
Or let thy fury fall alone on me! 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAQj1haRG63m
At this devoted head thy thunder throw, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAo1rroQueS2
And send the willing sacrifice below!" 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAHBCL63oMh4
Scarce had he said, when southern storms arise: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA3pZbVXeN6W
From pole to pole the forky lightning flies; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAOvDev6i12l
Loud rattling shakes the mountains and the plain; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAZkxeuagcu8
Heav'n bellies downward, and descends in rain. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA14mFUOKkWL
Whole sheets of water from the clouds are sent, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAmTHsOskTfy
Which, hissing thro' the planks, the flames prevent, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAQqKzem807L
And stop the fiery pest. Four ships alone 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAzssxlI6pKF
Burn to the waist, and for the fleet atone. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAuLAMtlhPei
But doubtful thoughts the hero's heart divide; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAW2dVh1amUr
If he should still in Sicily reside, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA39BKlZPZUm
Forgetful of his fates, or tempt the main, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAD4ZC2t93Vx
In hope the promis'd Italy to gain. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAToXD6EkRZy
Then Nautes, old and wise, to whom alone 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAvKvZWWfSFS
The will of Heav'n by Pallas was foreshown; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAhxlBHpUBNZ
Vers'd in portents, experienc'd, and inspir'd 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAvDyrzWsQpO
To tell events, and what the fates requir'd; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANACFkh3f3CId
Thus while he stood, to neither part inclin'd, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAbS0DfVhrjt
With cheerful words reliev'd his lab'ring mind: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAuZS4K5oMFy
"O goddess-born, resign'd in ev'ry state, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAc80WPjeV2B
With patience bear, with prudence push your fate. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAIKC6lSDk4K
By suff'ring well, our Fortune we subdue; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAzvoHUSLkL9
Fly when she frowns, and, when she calls, pursue. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAXfSzwRbwEF
Your friend Acestes is of Trojan kind; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAyDeARZsLqm
To him disclose the secrets of your mind: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAOTNU2qoJ2c
Trust in his hands your old and useless train; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAlYaPoKLIVp
Too num'rous for the ships which yet remain: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAG6YaX4TK5P
The feeble, old, indulgent of their ease, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAKbVtLoJgEU
The dames who dread the dangers of the seas, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAQMcavMiGS7
With all the dastard crew, who dare not stand 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAaeQWlo4wKW
The shock of battle with your foes by land. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAjs60clc5Yp
Here you may build a common town for all, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAM85KwKk2je
And, from Acestes' name, Acesta call." 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAEAS9jizARf
The reasons, with his friend's experience join'd, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAkz6vlCxJXw
Encourag'd much, but more disturb'd his mind. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAukq28pVGFn
'T was dead of night; when to his slumb'ring eyes 1298Please respect copyright.PENANALnqmCEV7RM
His father's shade descended from the skies, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANADunyvtNOAu
And thus he spoke: "O more than vital breath, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA8VeXmDymCf
Lov'd while I liv'd, and dear ev'n after death; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAYQxJxgrbmO
O son, in various toils and troubles toss'd, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAQbSl8Ym8jl
The King of Heav'n employs my careful ghost 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAcZZkp0BTic
On his commands: the god, who sav'd from fire 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAqWT7q9v68K
Your flaming fleet, and heard your just desire. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAXVjmvjQPcK
The wholesome counsel of your friend receive, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAn9D4NbQDKr
And here the coward train and woman leave: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANADVrMbX1ZXo
The chosen youth, and those who nobly dare, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANArObio3n22K
Transport, to tempt the dangers of the war. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAFchDr2eiPZ
The stern Italians will their courage try; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAKA6jGXXvO8
Rough are their manners, and their minds are high. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA2wW6Pc7YJs
But first to Pluto's palace you shall go, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAW0VQzn8H8T
And seek my shade among the blest below: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAZMdpHRSSkp
For not with impious ghosts my soul remains, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANApxZ2YdphTn
Nor suffers with the damn'd perpetual pains, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA5u9YSVzERE
But breathes the living air of soft Elysian plains. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAnHt00r6Y3v
The chaste Sibylla shall your steps convey, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAGuWXwTigha
And blood of offer'd victims free the way. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAcipugZN5ab
There shall you know what realms the gods assign, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAnazZPy6MzA
And learn the fates and fortunes of your line. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAq38lYIdYpS
But now, farewell! I vanish with the night, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA6aOW4I4tqH
And feel the blast of heav'n's approaching light." 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAqm4HtqIFuc
He said, and mix'd with shades, and took his airy flight. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAeeDkM7ATvj
"Whither so fast?" the filial duty cried; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAPuxhEfGW1U
"And why, ah why, the wish'd embrace denied?" 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAv3NYtOlBEO
He said, and rose; as holy zeal inspires, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAPIklwN2nOK
He rakes hot embers, and renews the fires; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAcAGuj4fKK6
His country gods and Vesta then adores 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAvweS9bZcax
With cakes and incense, and their aid implores. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA9l1Pw11WGq
Next, for his friends and royal host he sent, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAvLfHgQy2bd
Reveal'd his vision, and the gods' intent, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAuzmmqU294G
With his own purpose. All, without delay, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAvUOlCzK0kl
The will of Jove, and his desires obey. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA7T6hYFqLKu
They list with women each degenerate name, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAFJz4kdmMlP
Who dares not hazard life for future fame. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAyoDpw8VnYn
These they cashier: the brave remaining few, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA2DW8GsvTqU
Oars, banks, and cables, half consum'd, renew. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAiF9OQbUtY5
The prince designs a city with the plow; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA0r5dMYmPSA
The lots their sev'ral tenements allow. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAI4QhaMEQzy
This part is nam'd from Ilium, that from Troy, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAUbjBBJoKDX
And the new king ascends the throne with joy; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANALAGwMvURY0
A chosen senate from the people draws; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA6DE9iWeGMB
Appoints the judges, and ordains the laws. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAEM5nBzWhIV
Then, on the top of Eryx, they begin 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA8Fxu0PNvlr
A rising temple to the Paphian queen. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAtqxb0kpjQG
Anchises, last, is honor'd as a god; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAONaBcyTrYU
A priest is added, annual gifts bestow'd, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANArSRJdsfU9p
And groves are planted round his blest abode. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA5JoqW0kC7e
Nine days they pass in feasts, their temples crown'd; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAxb5tYx3f38
And fumes of incense in the fanes abound. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAYgWM4LPCcZ
Then from the south arose a gentle breeze 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAMxWkK5LpBL
That curl'd the smoothness of the glassy seas; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAgwtKxX1IMi
The rising winds a ruffling gale afford, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAji0B2mIGai
And call the merry mariners aboard. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAfKzR8NSWC6
Now loud laments along the shores resound, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA5UhEcCglKL
Of parting friends in close embraces bound. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAafRrPWGyXB
The trembling women, the degenerate train, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAILtiYi2Ui5
Who shunn'd the frightful dangers of the main, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAkAWoPH7pLZ
Ev'n those desire to sail, and take their share 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAQtAhOc6V7N
Of the rough passage and the promis'd war: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAKj8BfGGVbF
Whom good Aeneas cheers, and recommends 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAeW1Qvttpoq
To their new master's care his fearful friends. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAWKDZ6ghoyW
On Eryx's altars three fat calves he lays; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAUTPZXhV9yV
A lamb new-fallen to the stormy seas; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANANDtFTHjmSi
Then slips his haulsers, and his anchors weighs. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANArgz6YsYFc7
High on the deck the godlike hero stands, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA5LCX11TmD6
With olive crown'd, a charger in his hands; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAylPwxXm27F
Then cast the reeking entrails in the brine, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAsrU4A2IsW7
And pour'd the sacrifice of purple wine. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAeJVnLhuKdC
Fresh gales arise; with equal strokes they vie, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANATD3EtKI6dv
And brush the buxom seas, and o'er the billows fly. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAml5Tl6AQwz
Meantime the mother goddess, full of fears, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAsO82mGkFIP
To Neptune thus address'd, with tender tears: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAJ6f5UhoVzj
"The pride of Jove's imperious queen, the rage, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAgb0GqmDTT1
The malice which no suff'rings can assuage, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA1hTwgywfQc
Compel me to these pray'rs; since neither fate, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA0pJaPvsQrm
Nor time, nor pity, can remove her hate: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA1HNavVGx25
Ev'n Jove is thwarted by his haughty wife; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAVYPLuabhWA
Still vanquish'd, yet she still renews the strife. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAYT1ULWbf9C
As if 't were little to consume the town 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA0YzguLHwbZ
Which aw'd the world, and wore th' imperial crown, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAAqGGRuwovg
She prosecutes the ghost of Troy with pains, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA4LebHxOhKn
And gnaws, ev'n to the bones, the last remains. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAu6day481bK
Let her the causes of her hatred tell; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANACaaX28cnaV
But you can witness its effects too well. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANABZXQkQJPEW
You saw the storm she rais'd on Libyan floods, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAQ2gXWEy48T
That mix'd the mounting billows with the clouds; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA6uQA2tTv3q
When, bribing Aeolus, she shook the main, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAu0voTqfEye
And mov'd rebellion in your wat'ry reign. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAHoK6IpOuf2
With fury she possess'd the Dardan dames, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAjete3OVhTM
To burn their fleet with execrable flames, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAGJxNruumKX
And forc'd Aeneas, when his ships were lost, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANATkt4PK1R7B
To leave his foll'wers on a foreign coast. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAWGsoagKSxG
For what remains, your godhead I implore, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAoPkznqNkNf
And trust my son to your protecting pow'r. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAbOvrcrWK3C
If neither Jove's nor Fate's decree withstand, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAEMmWtEByHW
Secure his passage to the Latian land." 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAHgM5cFE5nz
Then thus the mighty Ruler of the Main: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAduQDT7Z153
"What may not Venus hope from Neptune's reign? 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAOVIDucogKR
My kingdom claims your birth; my late defense 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAgXwqxKaN18
Of your indanger'd fleet may claim your confidence. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAoC5jTIRver
Nor less by land than sea my deeds declare 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAwfaEE3qyB3
How much your lov'd Aeneas is my care. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANABq5sEi8Gmk
Thee, Xanthus, and thee, Simois, I attest. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAPhUaYEgGGe
Your Trojan troops when proud Achilles press'd, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANASSieWfIGFb
And drove before him headlong on the plain, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAIgU1WcX8As
And dash'd against the walls the trembling train; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAo02yjjFTB7
When floods were fill'd with bodies of the slain; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAoYRUB79MeW
When crimson Xanthus, doubtful of his way, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAb0pIdrXYlg
Stood up on ridges to behold the sea; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAP5hNX2Vy4g
(New heaps came tumbling in, and chok'd his way;) 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAoeSx8B0qoP
When your Aeneas fought, but fought with odds 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAR1MWdxcxPy
Of force unequal, and unequal gods; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAzcfxWpBX9S
I spread a cloud before the victor's sight, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA8ejH2TmRoU
Sustain'd the vanquish'd, and secur'd his flight; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANACedB99bgiH
Ev'n then secur'd him, when I sought with joy 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA9CYvO2OaZ1
The vow'd destruction of ungrateful Troy. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAEBoCbRzx5P
My will's the same: fair goddess, fear no more, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAZmAbmxZZ8y
Your fleet shall safely gain the Latian shore; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA3GQ9NfxSOl
Their lives are giv'n; one destin'd head alone 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAxHHCpYFIJd
Shall perish, and for multitudes atone." 1298Please respect copyright.PENANACW1iQBwEOH
Thus having arm'd with hopes her anxious mind, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAa1Jx9fDlcr
His finny team Saturnian Neptune join'd, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAJSeM5XpEBB
Then adds the foamy bridle to their jaws, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAjjmFJctghs
And to the loosen'd reins permits the laws. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAHXvUeURq2d
High on the waves his azure car he guides; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAM6AGofABhr
Its axles thunder, and the sea subsides, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANATt0FNeQcag
And the smooth ocean rolls her silent tides. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAurI93Mqhtn
The tempests fly before their father's face, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAqtos4yN3u7
Trains of inferior gods his triumph grace, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANASAABQSTL9Y
And monster whales before their master play, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAqcJnOZUaUL
And choirs of Tritons crowd the wat'ry way. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANApAGBkrLUdr
The marshal'd pow'rs in equal troops divide 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAJBDQoQVufA
To right and left; the gods his better side 1298Please respect copyright.PENANARkQj7ij3CS
Inclose, and on the worse the Nymphs and Nereids ride. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAw14ZrCxum7
Now smiling hope, with sweet vicissitude, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA33WOoXoDho
Within the hero's mind his joys renew'd. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAiCj964sBwf
He calls to raise the masts, the sheets display; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAMoGJek0A4I
The cheerful crew with diligence obey; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAbLrfMidE2G
They scud before the wind, and sail in open sea. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAkURsOvEApV
Ahead of all the master pilot steers; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAJRTeCDIK8f
And, as he leads, the following navy veers. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAQX75hnPidl
The steeds of Night had travel'd half the sky, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAjYQCn2n5S4
The drowsy rowers on their benches lie, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANApQ3Eg8q70A
When the soft God of Sleep, with easy flight, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANALmFjEYVcsd
Descends, and draws behind a trail of light. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANApBQvrl5W7m
Thou, Palinurus, art his destin'd prey; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA4gWdDyPc9z
To thee alone he takes his fatal way. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAjMZ5Rhj17w
Dire dreams to thee, and iron sleep, he bears; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAZVdXilMKLU
And, lighting on thy prow, the form of Phorbas wears. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA9MoS9m4CkL
Then thus the traitor god began his tale: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAxRYlcxtsu0
"The winds, my friend, inspire a pleasing gale; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAUi7iKRdtXy
The ships, without thy care, securely sail. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANADrt9o1rUhb
Now steal an hour of sweet repose; and I 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAszQvxc6jbZ
Will take the rudder and thy room supply." 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAia0K75pd9W
To whom the yawning pilot, half asleep: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANANIVAqoiroM
"Me dost thou bid to trust the treach'rous deep, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAZF20eVMaQZ
The harlot smiles of her dissembling face, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAZ8Mjjmgwch
And to her faith commit the Trojan race? 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAba6DnpWKgR
Shall I believe the Siren South again, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAdHqICXMIch
And, oft betray'd, not know the monster main?" 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA0OtpqQeKEL
He said: his fasten'd hands the rudder keep, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAnRIrSxggEV
And, fix'd on heav'n, his eyes repel invading sleep. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANATmFDo6f0dv
The god was wroth, and at his temples threw 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAzZAV92xI1s
A branch in Lethe dipp'd, and drunk with Stygian dew: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAc3ureudJuC
The pilot, vanquish'd by the pow'r divine, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAMvHfpIpF7Q
Soon clos'd his swimming eyes, and lay supine. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA0tRF9SuiKv
Scarce were his limbs extended at their length, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA4pXa3P3Pfs
The god, insulting with superior strength, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAGNJbpeKvM7
Fell heavy on him, plung'd him in the sea, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAJsN0THpFXi
And, with the stern, the rudder tore away. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAWmJXNZvQer
Headlong he fell, and, struggling in the main, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA4A4vqxErGE
Cried out for helping hands, but cried in vain. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAdXbQzjHQoK
The victor daemon mounts obscure in air, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAbrTLA3tdqv
While the ship sails without the pilot's care. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANA5npkoVtNII
On Neptune's faith the floating fleet relies; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAbwT0ZX6U20
But what the man forsook, the god supplies, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANALugVNj7YrI
And o'er the dang'rous deep secure the navy flies; 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAZjVV71Aw5p
Glides by the Sirens' cliffs, a shelfy coast, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAx2foEfo70D
Long infamous for ships and sailors lost, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAF1m1s4OOtQ
And white with bones. Th' impetuous ocean roars, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAgl35ibIKRj
And rocks rebellow from the sounding shores. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAz6VjeiHA4x
The watchful hero felt the knocks, and found 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAfuFZtmss61
The tossing vessel sail'd on shoaly ground. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAzJCgEmr3eZ
Sure of his pilot's loss, he takes himself 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAVxA1b3Xzdn
The helm, and steers aloof, and shuns the shelf. 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAsiILVeQfFW
Inly he griev'd, and, groaning from the breast, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAYz4FFbMJSd
Deplor'd his death; and thus his pain express'd: 1298Please respect copyright.PENANALhJhGzh3Sz
"For faith repos'd on seas, and on the flatt'ring sky, 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAaGlkN4MqvY
Thy naked corpse is doom'd on shores unknown to lie." 1298Please respect copyright.PENANAeqx1YBAgDq
