All were attentive to the godlike man, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAETMqR2Bohh
When from his lofty couch he thus began: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAubu5Nuc3i2
"Great queen, what you command me to relate 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAuRmUAo1kH1
Renews the sad remembrance of our fate: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA2kZ2dxbjzB
An empire from its old foundations rent, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAHnXiSJX0qB
And ev'ry woe the Trojans underwent; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANASyVl6NQl7l
A peopled city made a desart place; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAVZ2gSv07Xs
All that I saw, and part of which I was: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA7imu96zKkQ
Not ev'n the hardest of our foes could hear, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAIxaW6F4GuM
Nor stern Ulysses tell without a tear. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANADarx6CRoaQ
And now the latter watch of wasting night, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAg5fT73lQcR
And setting stars, to kindly rest invite; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAngiKCej4qN
But, since you take such int'rest in our woe, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAGB6pxrvDMX
And Troy's disastrous end desire to know, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAQVdA7LHdGe
I will restrain my tears, and briefly tell 1097Please respect copyright.PENANACbeu4VUM9l
What in our last and fatal night befell. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAe3Jpgo9DUt
"By destiny compell'd, and in despair, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAkAQ5dO6xvo
The Greeks grew weary of the tedious war, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA7VTxEUcsSN
And by Minerva's aid a fabric rear'd, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAo093uXnVrI
Which like a steed of monstrous height appear'd: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAb4yGWSKIV0
The sides were plank'd with pine; they feign'd it made 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAmi36rEmoSe
For their return, and this the vow they paid. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAVkjC3KwBqJ
Thus they pretend, but in the hollow side 1097Please respect copyright.PENANATla7fSyBD6
Selected numbers of their soldiers hide: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAasX9i5WD1Z
With inward arms the dire machine they load, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAGSwSpe4YPm
And iron bowels stuff the dark abode. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAC5U88RJSW3
In sight of Troy lies Tenedos, an isle 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAQk9Zo626Bl
(While Fortune did on Priam's empire smile) 1097Please respect copyright.PENANADpXMT1KABe
Renown'd for wealth; but, since, a faithless bay, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA25qL0z3GNh
Where ships expos'd to wind and weather lay. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAdBbCJI0Tyy
There was their fleet conceal'd. We thought, for Greece 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAxCFNxY8HAG
Their sails were hoisted, and our fears release. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAiWp6a7y0ZB
The Trojans, coop'd within their walls so long, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA4RIca7uykn
Unbar their gates, and issue in a throng, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAxnCiiNGTIQ
Like swarming bees, and with delight survey 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA643V7W2Dzi
The camp deserted, where the Grecians lay: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA505MUhaPkR
The quarters of the sev'ral chiefs they show'd; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAVHMQWTgytT
Here Phoenix, here Achilles, made abode; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA4LiN4RKywo
Here join'd the battles; there the navy rode. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAzSc4Ykd1Wq
Part on the pile their wond'ring eyes employ: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA9CYHgS5glP
The pile by Pallas rais'd to ruin Troy. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA8f3xBkzzYX
Thymoetes first ('t is doubtful whether hir'd, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAxhtI0YXAB1
Or so the Trojan destiny requir'd) 1097Please respect copyright.PENANABq1ATZQ2vi
Mov'd that the ramparts might be broken down, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAVk7Q2ztrNZ
To lodge the monster fabric in the town. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAQo10tZjcDe
But Capys, and the rest of sounder mind, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAPLoCY0wipP
The fatal present to the flames designed, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANACJvneqCiFU
Or to the wat'ry deep; at least to bore 1097Please respect copyright.PENANARh8SB1HMsI
The hollow sides, and hidden frauds explore. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA2UkNw3tBVj
The giddy vulgar, as their fancies guide, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAUTtnpjNveP
With noise say nothing, and in parts divide. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAtvev9fBm0N
Laocoon, follow'd by a num'rous crowd, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAtJn6XBnB6d
Ran from the fort, and cried, from far, aloud: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAdjVwgYtWSI
'O wretched countrymen! what fury reigns? 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAtAohWwj3EB
What more than madness has possess'd your brains? 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA8wAhV4tUwh
Think you the Grecians from your coasts are gone? 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAsbj0LXPinc
And are Ulysses' arts no better known? 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAL2nENCs3RJ
This hollow fabric either must inclose, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAwO6RLNJbw9
Within its blind recess, our secret foes; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAO2P1SGKHaV
Or 't is an engine rais'd above the town, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAX016RMI52N
T' o'erlook the walls, and then to batter down. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAXEB5z3q6kW
Somewhat is sure design'd, by fraud or force: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA1X07fhl75L
Trust not their presents, nor admit the horse.' 1097Please respect copyright.PENANArMcvzcJbrS
Thus having said, against the steed he threw 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAPdN6bI5D86
His forceful spear, which, hissing as flew, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAAjxaerdTBo
Pierc'd thro' the yielding planks of jointed wood, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAhqu51PUgCh
And trembling in the hollow belly stood. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANApHxRWW2TFB
The sides, transpierc'd, return a rattling sound, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANApBvK5fVT16
And groans of Greeks inclos'd come issuing thro' the wound 1097Please respect copyright.PENANABiRnPNlx02
And, had not Heav'n the fall of Troy design'd, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAU8U1J5ovjR
Or had not men been fated to be blind, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANASHSkprbkRc
Enough was said and done t'inspire a better mind. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANASp3FB0axy1
Then had our lances pierc'd the treach'rous wood, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAHRUrRRNtV8
And Ilian tow'rs and Priam's empire stood. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAUh8LMkaMw1
Meantime, with shouts, the Trojan shepherds bring 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAbuBgFgIpWS
A captive Greek, in bands, before the king; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAsASpoQk5wN
Taken to take; who made himself their prey, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAX0jRX9c6nu
T' impose on their belief, and Troy betray; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA40engF7uFQ
Fix'd on his aim, and obstinately bent 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAKPm0CF9CFI
To die undaunted, or to circumvent. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANATtqBf5wlhL
About the captive, tides of Trojans flow; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA9kPw1e0iV2
All press to see, and some insult the foe. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA2Qugz2AfSm
Now hear how well the Greeks their wiles disguis'd; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAaAhMHWhrV6
Behold a nation in a man compris'd. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAsn5UAx58kz
Trembling the miscreant stood, unarm'd and bound; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA5hqJWNJFAd
He star'd, and roll'd his haggard eyes around, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAbdLOjG0nC7
Then said: 'Alas! what earth remains, what sea 1097Please respect copyright.PENANACryaRFi7LK
Is open to receive unhappy me? 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA2OJBGFw48J
What fate a wretched fugitive attends, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA1NbUv5DkXH
Scorn'd by my foes, abandon'd by my friends?' 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAVdOT4z5foE
He said, and sigh'd, and cast a rueful eye: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAjvEEwBXGVl
Our pity kindles, and our passions die. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAqnTFluZC9x
We cheer youth to make his own defense, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAGJk3Ow7T1O
And freely tell us what he was, and whence: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAWpHqmp1YNH
What news he could impart, we long to know, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAiHTxDHWrGr
And what to credit from a captive foe. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANABXBNcXczHL
"His fear at length dismiss'd, he said: 'Whate'er 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAj2D16qPua2
My fate ordains, my words shall be sincere: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAbzch4JBQS1
I neither can nor dare my birth disclaim; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAUYnE9srfsv
Greece is my country, Sinon is my name. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAyY7wMy1SBE
Tho' plung'd by Fortune's pow'r in misery, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA4zyc1rsLMu
'T is not in Fortune's pow'r to make me lie. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA4MX7fbzDjV
If any chance has hither brought the name 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAu3tlYNGhPV
Of Palamedes, not unknown to fame, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAvOiXphUvka
Who suffer'd from the malice of the times, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAbjPNSA5tfO
Accus'd and sentenc'd for pretended crimes, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAotjeOkA1EQ
Because these fatal wars he would prevent; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA6EjlJB6IWQ
Whose death the wretched Greeks too late lament- 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA0r2bnuRosW
Me, then a boy, my father, poor and bare 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA2GBzRWMoHq
Of other means, committed to his care, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAV4QR42JGI5
His kinsman and companion in the war. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANASbXny2SLFf
While Fortune favor'd, while his arms support 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAo048o3SDMA
The cause, and rul'd the counsels, of the court, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAiJFgL0o6cG
I made some figure there; nor was my name 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAnDDQPmFPNv
Obscure, nor I without my share of fame. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANANEjgl29NDM
But when Ulysses, with fallacious arts, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANArx9sWVvpMj
Had made impression in the people's hearts, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAf03YZSTK9n
And forg'd a treason in my patron's name 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA2TsY45jlw9
(I speak of things too far divulg'd by fame), 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA0bOJRxTtzh
My kinsman fell. Then I, without support, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAuGX5HzaMvP
In private mourn'd his loss, and left the court. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAkoluOiEE0c
Mad as I was, I could not bear his fate 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAoHmXH32rSD
With silent grief, but loudly blam'd the state, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAXubmt3jThP
And curs'd the direful author of my woes. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA6EpzD5C8Ps
'T was told again; and hence my ruin rose. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAw3dViM9Mwz
I threaten'd, if indulgent Heav'n once more 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAhAxukf8eHx
Would land me safely on my native shore, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAmDF2rVgdC3
His death with double vengeance to restore. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANABBEVIkkrRZ
This mov'd the murderer's hate; and soon ensued 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA7vB8YcalBA
Th' effects of malice from a man so proud. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAHowVFaYwWI
Ambiguous rumors thro' the camp he spread, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAs1HAyj2F6p
And sought, by treason, my devoted head; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAYOz2t8TrRy
New crimes invented; left unturn'd no stone, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAOpupfljMUk
To make my guilt appear, and hide his own; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA5a0501rHKx
Till Calchas was by force and threat'ning wrought- 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAzvcdzzeFkK
But why- why dwell I on that anxious thought? 1097Please respect copyright.PENANApVvrL4EY9P
If on my nation just revenge you seek, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAnANtlBpyLt
And 't is t' appear a foe, t' appear a Greek; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAzWFYUtWDAb
Already you my name and country know; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANANXexu9HCKa
Assuage your thirst of blood, and strike the blow: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANARG7fR22dZu
My death will both the kingly brothers please, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAosPjBLxyzZ
And set insatiate Ithacus at ease.' 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAJFuO0WyNqD
This fair unfinish'd tale, these broken starts, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAkOFvXW6H4A
Rais'd expectations in our longing hearts: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAA8UOrroPlo
Unknowing as we were in Grecian arts. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANADdFv9mIY9e
His former trembling once again renew'd, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAPx7MClKwfJ
With acted fear, the villain thus pursued: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA615OZitaMZ
"'Long had the Grecians (tir'd with fruitless care, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAdLZe84s1b6
And wearied with an unsuccessful war) 1097Please respect copyright.PENANArFqqfpyKDr
Resolv'd to raise the siege, and leave the town; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAA2VzlO9Q4A
And, had the gods permitted, they had gone; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAMBBGENHJBt
But oft the wintry seas and southern winds 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAmvRNb3y6C4
Withstood their passage home, and chang'd their minds. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA1XgSjKY7pX
Portents and prodigies their souls amaz'd; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAOYFbIVvAbb
But most, when this stupendous pile was rais'd: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAXg8JbNOoMI
Then flaming meteors, hung in air, were seen, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANACGVqVlDYmd
And thunders rattled thro' a sky serene. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAsy3WEzH7MO
Dismay'd, and fearful of some dire event, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANARZLGpFXR6K
Eurypylus t' enquire their fate was sent. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA7Rz528EeCL
He from the gods this dreadful answer brought: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAvKqQMz8Q7B
"O Grecians, when the Trojan shores you sought, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAE7IyAlnOjq
Your passage with a virgin's blood was bought: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAJ4VVOxWUgj
So must your safe return be bought again, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAMOUuTD8dWV
And Grecian blood once more atone the main." 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA5bCBlddZ6u
The spreading rumor round the people ran; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAaKB3BXN4YK
All fear'd, and each believ'd himself the man. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA0F3tC2pgQO
Ulysses took th' advantage of their fright; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAggUrjBuF41
Call'd Calchas, and produc'd in open sight: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAaLScdHzZIl
Then bade him name the wretch, ordain'd by fate 1097Please respect copyright.PENANACj6DRwkzxE
The public victim, to redeem the state. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAGXO3ecIntf
Already some presag'd the dire event, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAyUV2ovMUMp
And saw what sacrifice Ulysses meant. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAkbgglJ9Jj4
For twice five days the good old seer withstood 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAEWZ4Gir5LN
Th' intended treason, and was dumb to blood, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA6eVNi7Yfez
Till, tir'd, with endless clamors and pursuit 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAz8SVJC8KeQ
Of Ithacus, he stood no longer mute; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAP3gJYgJfWp
But, as it was agreed, pronounc'd that I 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA92FVo3k9sg
Was destin'd by the wrathful gods to die. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANALze5cfAbus
All prais'd the sentence, pleas'd the storm should fall 1097Please respect copyright.PENANASEE6O38NCZ
On one alone, whose fury threaten'd all. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA6ELM0QPOG3
The dismal day was come; the priests prepare 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA7H1ZcXrAil
Their leaven'd cakes, and fillets for my hair. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAjgiS7eVgKE
I follow'd nature's laws, and must avow 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAKyVSFFlqPD
I broke my bonds and fled the fatal blow. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANATW4uonL39B
Hid in a weedy lake all night I lay, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA6YpqVfiDbA
Secure of safety when they sail'd away. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAcZvcfqY08E
But now what further hopes for me remain, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAGvnnJg9Jaf
To see my friends, or native soil, again; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAAp64EwGF76
My tender infants, or my careful sire, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA6v2SeUF49P
Whom they returning will to death require; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAliCF7VJqMI
Will perpetrate on them their first design, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA2B8DHMzRug
And take the forfeit of their heads for mine? 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAy3OcFkCaBV
Which, O! if pity mortal minds can move, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA7uM911uNYG
If there be faith below, or gods above, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAQI20MMz9Ly
If innocence and truth can claim desert, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAb5qruFwguy
Ye Trojans, from an injur'd wretch avert.' 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAuNAfNLBKsZ
"False tears true pity move; the king commands 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAyjjDv8fIIs
To loose his fetters, and unbind his hands: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANApTCdSF91qe
Then adds these friendly words: 'Dismiss thy fears; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAGxazaeoUnc
Forget the Greeks; be mine as thou wert theirs. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAFbnDkWheBD
But truly tell, was it for force or guile, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAnRdQ9eHu9L
Or some religious end, you rais'd the pile?' 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAKuGxedZ8Yd
Thus said the king. He, full of fraudful arts, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAjJOFtUpSIa
This well-invented tale for truth imparts: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAKqBABHhGDQ
'Ye lamps of heav'n!' he said, and lifted high 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAd3fIa7lnQl
His hands now free, 'thou venerable sky! 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAyGIswFDeXo
Inviolable pow'rs, ador'd with dread! 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA1dCfiEbCM0
Ye fatal fillets, that once bound this head! 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAIrfNKqD8zr
Ye sacred altars, from whose flames I fled! 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAbQDbSewWtV
Be all of you adjur'd; and grant I may, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANADnXKL4Buh9
Without a crime, th' ungrateful Greeks betray, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA9pQ4SKDmuY
Reveal the secrets of the guilty state, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA7dcSrHgWmG
And justly punish whom I justly hate! 1097Please respect copyright.PENANASXtAFRZMSN
But you, O king, preserve the faith you gave, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANADarTPnA2Cc
If I, to save myself, your empire save. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAlBWudfdAyn
The Grecian hopes, and all th' attempts they made, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA6jf1OfzpJE
Were only founded on Minerva's aid. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANACyyP0pGhWi
But from the time when impious Diomede, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAn8kFNx9CkJ
And false Ulysses, that inventive head, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANARcmCaJuYwM
Her fatal image from the temple drew, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAQNXDGP8iay
The sleeping guardians of the castle slew, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAIGYdC06VEL
Her virgin statue with their bloody hands 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAz9fEK92aJj
Polluted, and profan'd her holy bands; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAR8pLcZRIcH
From thence the tide of fortune left their shore, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAWf5vfTaaeE
And ebb'd much faster than it flow'd before: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAnb7byKrZMc
Their courage languish'd, as their hopes decay'd; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAQcmdH5t6yM
And Pallas, now averse, refus'd her aid. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAALIv4JgwgC
Nor did the goddess doubtfully declare 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAKrlIOEx1d3
Her alter'd mind and alienated care. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAs393PNIbud
When first her fatal image touch'd the ground, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAu6xCPt8RkI
She sternly cast her glaring eyes around, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAOrQxYWhiQv
That sparkled as they roll'd, and seem'd to threat: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANANTYjXfs0tO
Her heav'nly limbs distill'd a briny sweat. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA4R5V4CNPg6
Thrice from the ground she leap'd, was seen to wield 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAAKusLd4eKL
Her brandish'd lance, and shake her horrid shield. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA1jPNVL2jsu
Then Calchas bade our host for flight 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA6i9b9nWP6j
And hope no conquest from the tedious war, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAOXZHOnIPEm
Till first they sail'd for Greece; with pray'rs besought 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA6xU9To3ZCp
Her injur'd pow'r, and better omens brought. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAqvFrhbt3iH
And now their navy plows the wat'ry main, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA1zeIF16VN4
Yet soon expect it on your shores again, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAbKn9UcLErB
With Pallas pleas'd; as Calchas did ordain. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAvqrLzsMr9m
But first, to reconcile the blue-ey'd maid 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAm6CepxkKAx
For her stol'n statue and her tow'r betray'd, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAY5ResM968i
Warn'd by the seer, to her offended name 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAPmZmSWr4rg
We rais'd and dedicate this wondrous frame, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAG2rxJpMbHf
So lofty, lest thro' your forbidden gates 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAIjWmyoO4WM
It pass, and intercept our better fates: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAp6JzqFeURT
For, once admitted there, our hopes are lost; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA6zPoV3E6vC
And Troy may then a new Palladium boast; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANApHP36zOWUd
For so religion and the gods ordain, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANARzegz6L76n
That, if you violate with hands profane 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAAxkfRUdaW6
Minerva's gift, your town in flames shall burn, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANABUoY6KaMaz
(Which omen, O ye gods, on Graecia turn!) 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAODKqLOsoyi
But if it climb, with your assisting hands, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAO4QWXga2kl
The Trojan walls, and in the city stands; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAhIKUOqVRUF
Then Troy shall Argos and Mycenae burn, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAH09PgApFVL
And the reverse of fate on us return.' 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAjN5Z7BDlYM
"With such deceits he gain'd their easy hearts, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANACNuKwAoExN
Too prone to credit his perfidious arts. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA5qaQexdPV3
What Diomede, nor Thetis' greater son, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAzhfeAIlJeu
A thousand ships, nor ten years' siege, had done- 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA5nODous8PX
False tears and fawning words the city won. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANArvzHJ3ffTP

Did our unwary minds with fear torment, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAyxB0F5tgrB
Concurring to produce the dire event. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA6PNHbrCYJi
Laocoon, Neptune's priest by lot that year, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAmSXsIbG17Q
With solemn pomp then sacrific'd a steer; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAIKCoILrPmc
When, dreadful to behold, from sea we spied 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAxvAZAH27vj
Two serpents, rank'd abreast, the seas divide, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAWTh4lwSM1Y
And smoothly sweep along the swelling tide. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAqgEw1MZmP0
Their flaming crests above the waves they show; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAJM0IL4kXrd
Their bellies seem to burn the seas below; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAxWwjQH5h22
Their speckled tails advance to steer their course, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA5cc0FWMQIK
And on the sounding shore the flying billows force. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA1phwOzSATF
And now the strand, and now the plain they held; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAkjN5eE4MVu
Their ardent eyes with bloody streaks were fill'd; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAEuU1qNpGA1
Their nimble tongues they brandish'd as they came, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA6OgVOhtp8J
And lick'd their hissing jaws, that sputter'd flame. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA2yeNVaXnZr
We fled amaz'd; their destin'd way they take, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAyuchVIpAGM
And to Laocoon and his children make; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA9dGXHZRbvr
And first around the tender boys they wind, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAx0AO83qZ77
Then with their sharpen'd fangs their limbs and bodies grind. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAmFfRyfVqNV
The wretched father, running to their aid 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAxoqiACWSTI
With pious haste, but vain, they next invade; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANADPSIkmEVDg
Twice round his waist their winding volumes roll'd; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA7YUJdJWIUV
And twice about his gasping throat they fold. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANASi5ScO4ImZ
The priest thus doubly chok'd, their crests divide, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANADFXvK6w9SB
And tow'ring o'er his head in triumph ride. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAXbqYKTatTf
With both his hands he labors at the knots; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA4HbiX0k0et
His holy fillets the blue venom blots; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAsALcxGFyJ9
His roaring fills the flitting air around. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAYt3yTf65WG
Thus, when an ox receives a glancing wound, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAdQb7Ekj039
He breaks his bands, the fatal altar flies, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAJGiXsZyGsw
And with loud bellowings breaks the yielding skies. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAcPiNAxK621
Their tasks perform'd, the serpents quit their prey, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANALpSusS6Z2T
And to the tow'r of Pallas make their way: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA1tK4eK4akt
Couch'd at her feet, they lie protected there 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAihbjBnPSYj
By her large buckler and protended spear. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAYpm7brTQde
Amazement seizes all; the gen'ral cry 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAQp1jj0MGow
Proclaims Laocoon justly doom'd to die, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAuD3DmxhXr8
Whose hand the will of Pallas had withstood, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAKlObjwAY1J
And dared to violate the sacred wood. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAGfB62hWgyX
All vote t' admit the steed, that vows be paid 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAnveuAu36UK
And incense offer'd to th' offended maid. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAO5b2qfuqv7
A spacious breach is made; the town lies bare; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANACuXn69Nhqm
Some hoisting-levers, some the wheels prepare 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAKBc5w67vqr
And fasten to the horse's feet; the rest 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAkWwCsiP5wQ
With cables haul along th' unwieldly beast. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAsBdt8ekiQb
Each on his fellow for assistance calls; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAYwJsnfTnYI
At length the fatal fabric mounts the walls, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAHTreKSK4X0
Big with destruction. Boys with chaplets crown'd, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAOTjAWEu4sP
And choirs of virgins, sing and dance around. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANASTebynoawh
Thus rais'd aloft, and then descending down, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA0Az3gCJPqo
It enters o'er our heads, and threats the town. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAa8YOiYssCL
O sacred city, built by hands divine! 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAxIZk8G122k
O valiant heroes of the Trojan line! 1097Please respect copyright.PENANARhFBgffezs
Four times he struck: as oft the clashing sound 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAPhoTQ8TnpB
Of arms was heard, and inward groans rebound. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAbZG9kf5zpE
Yet, mad with zeal, and blinded with our fate, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAdBtKuwdxLX
We haul along the horse in solemn state; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAvi1y7uvBRS
Then place the dire portent within the tow'r. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAD4L04yCg1s
Cassandra cried, and curs'd th' unhappy hour; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAgI8GW7kY2r
Foretold our fate; but, by the god's decree, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAXgTzS2snoa
All heard, and none believ'd the prophecy. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAMFqwdXh6lK
With branches we the fanes adorn, and waste, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA9rGOfcuDBR
In jollity, the day ordain'd to be the last. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANASpcICiuwTq
Meantime the rapid heav'ns roll'd down the light, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAeydFjo46mk
And on the shaded ocean rush'd the night; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAWZGpufkCmJ
Our men, secure, nor guards nor sentries held, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA1G7OPPZ4Ew
But easy sleep their weary limbs compell'd. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA8k4smRoSQi
The Grecians had embark'd their naval pow'rs 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAG34VWKQBXe
From Tenedos, and sought our well-known shores, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAYrc6iwHd7J
Safe under covert of the silent night, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAXqDp8gkodD
And guided by th' imperial galley's light; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANARbLjzvRJgR
When Sinon, favor'd by the partial gods, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAVxbs1P3otu
Unlock'd the horse, and op'd his dark abodes; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAwDsis4VJkG
Restor'd to vital air our hidden foes, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAhFLKNrObD5
Who joyful from their long confinement rose. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAXlUmHDkTzt
Tysander bold, and Sthenelus their guide, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAQljUsr3pqB
And dire Ulysses down the cable slide: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA9s9k7fMSAp
Then Thoas, Athamas, and Pyrrhus haste; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAHlpBWlmzeA
Nor was the Podalirian hero last, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANASsp6duByXJ
Nor injur'd Menelaus, nor the fam'd 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAVhwrDVN7oI
Epeus, who the fatal engine fram'd. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAUNyFWELLuc
A nameless crowd succeed; their forces join 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAutKYo6DGCd
T' invade the town, oppress'd with sleep and wine. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAS6wJ7ZlVpy
Those few they find awake first meet their fate; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAG6RmaExrXT
Then to their fellows they unbar the gate. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAbxCc5DdskP
"'T was in the dead of night, when sleep repairs 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAbMjDQCyFVt
Our bodies worn with toils, our minds with cares, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAxsRL4tHvbf
When Hector's ghost before my sight appears: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAaDePZDHbJa
A bloody shroud he seem'd, and bath'd in tears; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANALTLnOC95hr
Such as he was, when, by Pelides slain, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANASjTWWY72zS
Thessalian coursers dragg'd him o'er the plain. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAbr3jmGt4hQ
Swoln were his feet, as when the thongs were thrust 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAQ9XwdqB3lg
Thro' the bor'd holes; his body black with dust; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAg0Rpors72z
Unlike that Hector who return'd from toils 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAswjIMkiu1d
Of war, triumphant, in Aeacian spoils, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAO3Wv9fEG5m
Or him who made the fainting Greeks retire, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA9km0nVJ5pB
And launch'd against their navy Phrygian fire. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAAi7rkuJIiP
His hair and beard stood stiffen'd with his gore; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAqWoT24oB8l
And all the wounds he for his country bore 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAVqyLGTtHZn
Now stream'd afresh, and with new purple ran. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAwzQpPWsRxi
I wept to see the visionary man, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAyRkqmWkg4T
And, while my trance continued, thus began: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANABcK67VlNAz
'O light of Trojans, and support of Troy, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAV6P0SWUOxt
Thy father's champion, and thy country's joy! 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAWunc2BqAcz
O, long expected by thy friends! from whence 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAXnziNl2UTn
Art thou so late return'd for our defense? 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA81DdOZYbrP
Do we behold thee, wearied as we are 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAZDSO1FdjW9
With length of labors, and with toils of war? 1097Please respect copyright.PENANANX4vUKAybW
After so many fun'rals of thy own 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAfNVVqziONb
Art thou restor'd to thy declining town? 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA8qVWt4Dxrf
But say, what wounds are these? What new disgrace 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAn4q3uqCJtc
Deforms the manly features of thy face?' 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAtiIB1jtQce
"To this the specter no reply did frame, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANALS2Cb7lpsd
But answer'd to the cause for which he came, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAgrvmbXQmo1
And, groaning from the bottom of his breast, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAPVg52lk0ZX
This warning in these mournful words express'd: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAlQSp0L8CVl
'O goddess-born! escape, by timely flight, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA2W11Seo9bj
The flames and horrors of this fatal night. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAiOd2j83LRK
The foes already have possess'd the wall; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAScbkSdaT8m
Troy nods from high, and totters to her fall. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAH3qaikOHEE
Enough is paid to Priam's royal name, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA5NPO1UUg7o
More than enough to duty and to fame. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAnsu4ORhgdV
If by a mortal hand my father's throne 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAJamPPJPY2M
Could be defended, 't was by mine alone. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAwN6gT6h5Uq
Now Troy to thee commends her future state, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAkZKnYTZ7K1
And gives her gods companions of thy fate: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAJwJiVPc6b0
From their assistance walls expect, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAutlqMOz6hL
Which, wand'ring long, at last thou shalt erect.' 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAjcfUCFYD50
He said, and brought me, from their blest abodes, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA6mThBTqrPF
The venerable statues of the gods, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAmEb1oHZvsO
With ancient Vesta from the sacred choir, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAyOdKcVIX4f
The wreaths and relics of th' immortal fire. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAjbWnFkKGyc
"Now peals of shouts come thund'ring from afar, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAXMAC90frK4
Cries, threats, and loud laments, and mingled war: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAuGXB3rwJS8
The noise approaches, tho' our palace stood 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAhR3ySyyiUL
Aloof from streets, encompass'd with a wood. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA7Cy9KEdp3X
Louder, and yet more loud, I hear th' alarms 1097Please respect copyright.PENANALJC5Ncua3F
Of human cries distinct, and clashing arms. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAXFZXoYryWH
Fear broke my slumbers; I no longer stay, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA2EuXZzSD8g
But mount the terrace, thence the town survey, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA6ORgkPdnPr
And hearken what the frightful sounds convey. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAnA6RdIuSGm
Thus, when a flood of fire by wind is borne, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAxnXCythJn3
Crackling it rolls, and mows the standing corn; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAbNbKZoXqpX
Or deluges, descending on the plains, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAAepM4G1FAq
Sweep o'er the yellow year, destroy the pains 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAdfJvv4IjD0
Of lab'ring oxen and the peasant's gains; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAGjoU5fJlzc
Unroot the forest oaks, and bear away 1097Please respect copyright.PENANApJnF7owr93
Flocks, folds, and trees, and undistinguish'd prey: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAxOYJjNs6Fu
The shepherd climbs the cliff, and sees from far 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAe3jR33VlFT
The wasteful ravage of the wat'ry war. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAiJDsZzHXBK
Then Hector's faith was manifestly clear'd, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAe6eoN4mVTO
And Grecian frauds in open light appear'd. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANApjc6P1XRHB
The palace of Deiphobus ascends 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA7qmJyOK6rr
In smoky flames, and catches on his friends. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAzF2QBTUfhY
Ucalegon burns next: the seas are bright 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAxcgvANaykF
With splendor not their own, and shine with Trojan light. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANACMvFBtFH7p
New clamors and new clangors now arise, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAxftazJtH9o
The sound of trumpets mix'd with fighting cries. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAgj1KO8TnaD
With frenzy seiz'd, I run to meet th' alarms, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAoElzO6ksyi
Resolv'd on death, resolv'd to die in arms, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA0IEmL1pbbn
But first to gather friends, with them t' oppose 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAWaGcMKoww2
(If fortune favor'd) and repel the foes; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANASPj3Bf6fhI
Spurr'd by my courage, by my country fir'd, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAUqbVzeopfb
With sense of honor and revenge inspir'd. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAEvcUD0IbYR
"Pantheus, Apollo's priest, a sacred name, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAO5r1nSD7lM
Had scap'd the Grecian swords, and pass'd the flame: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAlDtwSgVFKQ
With relics loaden. to my doors he fled, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAGwDcSN09O7
And by the hand his tender grandson led. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA4ObaIZzVnM
'What hope, O Pantheus? whither can we run? 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAFTPijXh57Q
Where make a stand? and what may yet be done?' 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAMjtAc2p5Og
Scarce had I said, when Pantheus, with a groan: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAUgZk0D1l5j
'Troy is no more, and Ilium was a town! 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAb3ZFKNCAze
The fatal day, th' appointed hour, is come, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANADFNdKDwKZv

Transfers the Trojan state to Grecian hands. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAnOGQzZrQJY
The fire consumes the town, the foe commands; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANApnmnRaAfJA
And armed hosts, an unexpected force, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAXWUT8Cs9o5
Break from the bowels of the fatal horse. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAMHcJfi1C1x
Within the gates, proud Sinon throws about 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA63cSh7qpp5
The flames; and foes for entrance press without, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANACyOKJ7qJwR
With thousand others, whom I fear to name, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAJLvjCryopJ
More than from Argos or Mycenae came. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA3hw4wa8Xnu
To sev'ral posts their parties they divide; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAVcXLKAXGOH
Some block the narrow streets, some scour the wide: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAgj44YJqZ4u
The bold they kill, th' unwary they surprise; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAs7KeYUMHgq
Who fights finds death, and death finds him who flies. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAdKrpNPEvqO
The warders of the gate but scarce maintain 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAwGoGG6Hby3

Dymas and Hypanis by moonlight knew 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA12sb7FC0ak
My motions and my mien, and to my party drew; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANARhOUdB7Caw
With young Coroebus, who by love was led 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAMHXE1RaFX2

'Brave souls!' said I,- 'but brave, alas! in vain- 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAKRa1aibfZM
Come, finish what our cruel fates ordain. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAS3vl75RwRN
You see the desp'rate state of our affairs, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAicHEtjGYvp
And heav'n's protecting pow'rs are deaf to pray'rs. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAx4ZwmTKcsO
The passive gods behold the Greeks defile 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAScegaEhEnJ
Their temples, and abandon to the spoil 1097Please respect copyright.PENANARaUhMFvlnW
Their own abodes: we, feeble few, conspire 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA9Ac3cZjmtv
To save a sinking town, involv'd in fire. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAlB7dXUKp8b
Then let us fall, but fall amidst our foes: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANATb8foAy8SG
Despair of life the means of living shows.' 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAFULRu1mPQI
So bold a speech incourag'd their desire 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAYfSuLskH4l
Of death, and added fuel to their fire. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANATJ65sCJxp9
"As hungry wolves, with raging appetite, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAacxKdIhenb

An ancient and imperial city falls: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAE3Bh750tAU

Androgeos fell among us, with his band, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAhp6YsVvuTq
Who thought us Grecians newly come to land. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAuGv0STEiAD
'From whence,' said he, 'my friends, this long delay? 1097Please respect copyright.PENANArU1tzxXfqL
You loiter, while the spoils are borne away: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA95mXCdPe8t
Our ships are laden with the Trojan store; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAahotKF8NS4
And you, like truants, come too late ashore.' 1097Please respect copyright.PENANArSNx1EMbtk
He said, but soon corrected his mistake, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA0DOcpgBA6H
Found, by the doubtful answers which we make: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAoxAsRlzmEQ
Amaz'd, he would have shunn'd th' unequal fight; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAHVj6BqzGEW
But we, more num'rous, intercept his flight. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAOltjzT2Han
As when some peasant, in a bushy brake, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAczRnGZHaLi
Has with unwary footing press'd a snake; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAAOAJZa4TgM
He starts aside, astonish'd, when he spies 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAIMxwGTSNVo
His rising crest, blue neck, and rolling eyes; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA4fxVXc5cMc
So from our arms surpris'd Androgeos flies. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA4nHIylOD2T

Possess'd with fear, unknowing of the ground, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAgvJzR3ZE2H

Thus Fortune on our first endeavor smil'd. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAW5x3oVn0df
Coroebus then, with youthful hopes beguil'd, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAstqJlGpSpX
Swoln with success, and a daring mind, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAa8Rzx6Mrjt
This new invention fatally design'd. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAFTKAtZCw5J

Let fraud supply the want of force in war. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA3e1GAm0I25
They find us arms.' This said, himself he dress'd 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAIBtCPBo9OR
In dead Androgeos' spoils, his upper vest, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAA7oOZk8NUv
His painted buckler, and his plumy crest. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANASkfCPwThsU
Thus Ripheus, Dymas, all the Trojan train, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA0oBO5qi5gI
Lay down their own attire, and strip the slain. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAjFs0lma9SU
Mix'd with the Greeks, we go with ill presage, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANANA6TPvXYIY
Flatter'd with hopes to glut our greedy rage; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANArvfPfT0agx
Unknown, assaulting whom we blindly meet, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAhatjQt7tYQ
And strew with Grecian carcasses the street. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAowW5LSHvle
Thus while their straggling parties we defeat, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAaiugcclfhQ
Some to the shore and safer ships retreat; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANALNMfkYB4No
And some, oppress'd with more ignoble fear, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAGGqif11g8F
Remount the hollow horse, and pant in secret there. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAIFYqQoAzsK

Whom not Minerva's shrine, nor sacred bands, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAaww7zimWKy
In safety could protect from sacrilegious hands: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAfTp9miwBnU

Amid the barb'rous ravishers he flew: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAv26xa0rhAU
Our leader's rash example we pursue. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAPELW1kdVUl

Pour down, and on our batter'd helms alight: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAQM5YmZWgHy
We from our friends receiv'd this fatal blow, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAdWmxa3rwM4
Who thought us Grecians, as we seem'd in show. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAvVTAUYHQEX
They aim at the mistaken crests, from high; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAzJndu37TVh
And ours beneath the pond'rous ruin lie. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAPRAsn0arBB
Then, mov'd with anger and disdain, to see 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAOKauB2S08E
Their troops dispers'd, the royal virgin free, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAuvqDfwdY9I
The Grecians rally, and their pow'rs unite, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAWCdL2189rB

"Thus, when the rival winds their quarrel try, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAw0jdFWIv1U
Contending for the kingdom of the sky, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAH2Y8ckireV
South, east, and west, on airy coursers borne; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA3jQGPs46lq
The whirlwind gathers, and the woods are torn: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA19YIluY65P
Then Nereus strikes the deep; the billows rise, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAdsqKbspXu3
And, mix'd with ooze and sand, pollute the skies. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAG4L1OlaFlH
The troops we squander'd first again appear 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAwpPbpt6dhR

Then Ripheus follow'd, in th' unequal fight; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAIIDZLkyhq1
Just of his word, observant of the right: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANArF2akRrxQu
Heav'n thought not so. Dymas their fate attends, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAkDsgKOjiHE

Borne off to distance by the growing tide, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA2YeV5kqPBB
Old Iphitus and I were hurried thence, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANALn1pyterZB
With Pelias wounded, and without defense. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAZ06wI2Ovdf
New clamors from th' invested palace ring: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAOZinrl6DvE

So hot th' assault, so high the tumult rose, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANADjAMAl31Ek
While ours defend, and while the Greeks oppose 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAz2D9Uvyns4
As all the Dardan and Argolic race 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAbNDcMHFcd6
Had been contracted in that narrow space; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAaozrAATF7n
Or as all Ilium else were void of fear, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAXMxMPXr1uz
And tumult, war, and slaughter, only there. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANACMcXEZCYQB
Their targets in a tortoise cast, the foes, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAgIg2ojNEZp
Secure advancing, to the turrets rose: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAx7Dl8LkXPO

From their demolish'd tow'rs the Trojans throw 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAJtaQNw2Iwa
Huge heaps of stones, that, falling, crush the foe; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAUZ8BMQ6Hoe
And heavy beams and rafters from the sides 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAve6svKdMXp

Renew'd in courage with recover'd breath, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAkphwZpuC5l
A second time we ran to tempt our death, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANARluYULNZIE

The weary living, and revenge the dead. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAVCflTctsOO

To the king's closet led: a way well known 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAezWfQnBZhs
To Hector's wife, while Priam held the throne, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANARnwFtrnwkH
Thro' which she brought Astyanax, unseen, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAnW65gpaad7

Thro' this we pass, and mount the tow'r, from whence 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAUTjVrY9iAL
With unavailing arms the Trojans make defense. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAMKklYqqXFt
From this the trembling king had oft descried 1097Please respect copyright.PENANASORB6K1lMj
The Grecian camp, and saw their navy ride. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA6OGAchgPXr
Beams from its lofty height with swords we hew, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAu3ObaiIj71
Then, wrenching with our hands, th' assault renew; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAnsRsMNHIPV
And, where the rafters on the columns meet, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAjVQVKbhhqI
We push them headlong with our arms and feet. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAXIvBWP7bak
The lightning flies not swifter than the fall, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANABebcOO1Bb2
Nor thunder louder than the ruin'd wall: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAEBBcrw4kn3
Down goes the top at once; the Greeks beneath 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAeSA4Rml3n1
Are piecemeal torn, or pounded into death. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA01uq4sSszr
Yet more succeed, and more to death are sent; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA3By3vgqNQ8
We cease not from above, nor they below relent. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAc1tcjXBtio
Before the gate stood Pyrrhus, threat'ning loud, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAXtX3SXM6Jq
With glitt'ring arms conspicuous in the crowd. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAaSNqa8ntyc
So shines, renew'd in youth, the crested snake, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAxfEA5foRUA
Who slept the winter in a thorny brake, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAnzoL8OoZJA
And, casting off his slough when spring returns, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAqsgNuPIs4p
Now looks aloft, and with new glory burns; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANALtII21S1mK
Restor'd with poisonous herbs, his ardent sides 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAuB8APGFsTg
Reflect the sun; and rais'd on spires he rides; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAlwAnTI1A1P
High o'er the grass, hissing he rolls along, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAbblfI1o3Px
And brandishes by fits his forky tongue. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAmaiVDdxnSo
Proud Periphas, and fierce Automedon, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAJYXFhW1Vsj
His father's charioteer, together run 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAJbL75g2n7P
To force the gate; the Scyrian infantry 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA4lxVNTVHCO
Rush on in crowds, and the barr'd passage free. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAYVZfa1Mvvf
Ent'ring the court, with shouts the skies they rend; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAqCrH2KfOaB
And flaming firebrands to the roofs ascend. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAeLQMvFtUwf
Himself, among the foremost, deals his blows, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAIExXczSt89
And with his ax repeated strokes bestows 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA8kp0M1l4vJ
On the strong doors; then all their shoulders ply, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAybG2OyapWk
Till from the posts the brazen hinges fly. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAEgdX0EnE06
He hews apace; the double bars at length 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAZmegvbxx0T
Yield to his ax and unresisted strength. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA6wky0gGSOD
A mighty breach is made: the rooms conceal'd 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA8TL1roXdAg
Appear, and all the palace is reveal'd; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAd6uewcnVBE
The halls of audience, and of public state, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAvcyp7KUn0C
And where the lonely queen in secret sate. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAvsAmr2SS9N
Arm'd soldiers now by trembling maids are seen, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAu4mueHYjU0
With not a door, and scarce a space, between. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAjvWebnhNh1
The house is fill'd with loud laments and cries, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAq4nli8yQ22
And shrieks of women rend the vaulted skies; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAYzYQO8fmgx
The fearful matrons run from place to place, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAmwjcDheAbE
And kiss the thresholds, and the posts embrace. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANADyCObYZSfv
The fatal work inhuman Pyrrhus plies, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA4La0fYJpSi
And all his father sparkles in his eyes; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANATZQkkQBjuj
Nor bars, nor fighting guards, his force sustain: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAYCR54qHY4l
The bars are broken, and the guards are slain. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA4LakCPI7L5
In rush the Greeks, and all the apartments fill; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANASOyBm96SRr
Those few defendants whom they find, they kill. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAv2yZootenU
Not with so fierce a rage the foaming flood 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAKM8vJPGbVv
Roars, when he finds his rapid course withstood; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAxAhqkkLWUs
Bears down the dams with unresisted sway, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAgJzXixO2IS
And sweeps the cattle and the cots away. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAxzWTrR5bB6
These eyes beheld him when he march'd between 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAjO3PwLL0Le
The brother kings: I saw th' unhappy queen, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANASCiWbTOQNs
The hundred wives, and where old Priam stood, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAsa8uP7eeMI
To stain his hallow'd altar with his brood. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA3V1oKuPshk
The fifty nuptial beds (such hopes had he, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAM3HF9ZGgpK
So large a promise, of a progeny), 1097Please respect copyright.PENANADnEBsgY1ZS
The posts, of plated gold, and hung with spoils, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAjACML3GQl6
Fell the reward of the proud victor's toils. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAOu6eUJgCrO
Where'er the raging fire had left a space, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAaGekWzoFVp
The Grecians enter and possess the place. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAVXr3HcZ8uJ
"Perhaps you may of Priam's fate enquire. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAfhbyQtzs9h
He, when he saw his regal town on fire, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAjKJr8Oy4gs
His ruin'd palace, and his ent'ring foes, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANANRnHjEPDKi
On ev'ry side inevitable woes, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAvIpx11aad2
In arms, disus'd, invests his limbs, decay'd, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA7wdaFOaHxm
Like them, with age; a late and useless aid. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANABYgD5qk3Mk
His feeble shoulders scarce the weight sustain; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAavZwhf5qlm
Loaded, not arm'd, he creeps along with pain, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAVaIZFz79SZ
Despairing of success, ambitious to be slain! 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAVnAGqHDVy4
Uncover'd but by heav'n, there stood in view 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAWQ9WBVvcds
An altar; near the hearth a laurel grew, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAVnsKdn5ann
Dodder'd with age, whose boughs encompass round 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA731w3r4CyL
The household gods, and shade the holy ground. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAsZF5D0l61h
Here Hecuba, with all her helpless train 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAnJfYs2NxT8
Of dames, for shelter sought, but sought in vain. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAC0tYU89ixE
Driv'n like a flock of doves along the sky, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA9knc07RRQl
Their images they hug, and to their altars fly. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA3kDMuicUZy
The Queen, when she beheld her trembling lord, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAbmgl7VKO71
And hanging by his side a heavy sword, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAd48WHXRy9r
'What rage,' she cried, 'has seiz'd my husband's mind? 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAcroKuqfWcS
What arms are these, and to what use design'd? 1097Please respect copyright.PENANACkL9KCpoMR
These times want other aids! Were Hector here, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAvAfIWRpvtL
Ev'n Hector now in vain, like Priam, would appear. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAOny4heDMc4
With us, one common shelter thou shalt find, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAfVx5YyHAjC

She said, and with a last salute embrac'd 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAmoaEfrHQRP
The poor old man, and by the laurel plac'd. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAvRprGJLyCT
Behold! Polites, one of Priam's sons, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAAhByOa8VCw
Pursued by Pyrrhus, there for safety runs. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA9IiSzUguZ7
Thro' swords and foes, amaz'd and hurt, he flies 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAbMJlJuWNRo
Thro' empty courts and open galleries. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAJ7uZ45ll6I
Him Pyrrhus, urging with his lance, pursues, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAj4KWo7eeCp
And often reaches, and his thrusts renews. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAc2yG6mftIW
The youth, transfix'd, with lamentable cries, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAI6ocATikNb
Expires before his wretched parent's eyes: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAmqgDlaAX75
Whom gasping at his feet when Priam saw, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAIDfSZszkH0
The fear of death gave place to nature's law; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAquElFt8IRT
And, shaking more with anger than with age, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAvh34nEWkQ1
'The gods,' said he, 'requite thy brutal rage! 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAGvXVpJjK25
As sure they will, barbarian, sure they must, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAg2aBShiKJ8

Who tak'st in wrongs an insolent delight; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAQkRGVniBXa
With a son's death t' infect a father's sight. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA1BNbHVBSse
Not he, whom thou and lying fame conspire 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA3LmQQ9o20C
To call thee his- not he, thy vaunted sire, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAD0E8vyLlef
Thus us'd my wretched age: the gods he fear'd, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAgL75UXfISR
The laws of nature and of nations heard. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA7HAJO9tjeY
He cheer'd my sorrows, and, for sums of gold, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAbssKbDpzf7
The bloodless carcass of my Hector sold; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAnbctGri8Eg
Pitied the woes a parent underwent, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAuks9mSj1PR
And sent me back in safety from his tent.' 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAfocTh0Iu1a
"This said, his feeble hand a javelin threw, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA489cFR13HM
Which, flutt'ring, seem'd to loiter as it flew: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA4lN4lfgKyS
Just, and but barely, to the mark it held, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAsNPQ7BWue1
And faintly tinkled on the brazen shield. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAXQBpesFOv1
"Then Pyrrhus thus: 'Go thou from me to fate, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAy0leebdeVq
And to my father my foul deeds relate. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANANmasP9Esr5
Now die!' With that he dragg'd the trembling sire, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAMiFcEHJtIE
Slidd'ring thro' clotter'd blood and holy mire, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAGYS33AIKpM
(The mingled paste his murder'd son had made,) 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA6OuXKkyfpw
Haul'd from beneath the violated shade, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAXg4rtIJcP5
And on the sacred pile the royal victim laid. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAzCMaxzudpD
His right hand held his bloody falchion bare, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAClWxRkNcM0
His left he twisted in his hoary hair; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA6AZNUVxWmg
Then, with a speeding thrust, his heart he found: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANARtPkrznnDM
The lukewarm blood came rushing thro' the wound, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAM3CW4RiPLR
And sanguine streams distain'd the sacred ground. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAcM2mIBwytA
Thus Priam fell, and shar'd one common fate 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAXx4hwRbeVw
With Troy in ashes, and his ruin'd state: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAAwmExXENyw
He, who the scepter of all Asia sway'd, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA7D7SlhyAm8
Whom monarchs like domestic slaves obey'd. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAS7MfGAXQZT
On the bleak shore now lies th' abandon'd king, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA8abH4j7cAO
A headless carcass, and a nameless thing. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAKRHPf7oYMe
"Then, not before, I felt my cruddled blood 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAS7iYuD8y3E
Congeal with fear, my hair with horror stood: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAGHOwCmlUhw
My father's image fill'd my pious mind, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAS1Z21IJI62
Lest equal years might equal fortune find. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAXzQ0EwuSBd
Again I thought on my forsaken wife, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAxCCVRZsJTF
And trembled for my son's abandon'd life. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAayWWg9XKRO
I look'd about, but found myself alone, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAyZwia8A04V
Deserted at my need! My friends were gone. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAcZEOxrym9T
Some spent with toil, some with despair oppress'd, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAg2D9eobB1k
Leap'd headlong from the heights; the flames consum'd the rest. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAonpzF9WbWG

The graceless Helen in the porch I spied 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAEQhgyGvZ76
Of Vesta's temple; there she lurk'd alone; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAUG1o8SJTP0
Muffled she sate, and, what she could, unknown: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAVvNTr9jpSo
But, by the flames that cast their blaze around, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAOAHBfEtEn5
That common bane of Greece and Troy I found. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAWMtXr6e2Cx
For Ilium burnt, she dreads the Trojan sword; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANALPL2PadyNe
More dreads the vengeance of her injur'd lord; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAG0W6TA4iRm
Ev'n by those gods who refug'd her abhorr'd. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAgw30Fv3uYN
Trembling with rage, the strumpet I regard, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA5nRVPU2JYn
Resolv'd to give her guilt the due reward: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAarIaAHRi5N
'Shall she triumphant sail before the wind, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA7jbwq78SFk
And leave in flames unhappy Troy behind? 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAVct2DOIUlW
Shall she her kingdom and her friends review, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAcH6qr9hKEb
In state attended with a captive crew, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAmitRmehNCJ
While unreveng'd the good old Priam falls, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAd0yrO1fwlA
And Grecian fires consume the Trojan walls? 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA4DOohKac15
For this the Phrygian fields and Xanthian flood 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAuWYiwFz5TL
Were swell'd with bodies, and were drunk with blood? 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAYtx7VJhGT7
'T is true, a soldier can small honor gain, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAVsaNlVgj9T
And boast no conquest, from a woman slain: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAAK2YQXN9iQ
Yet shall the fact not pass without applause, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANANHJwcT9v3Z
Of vengeance taken in so just a cause; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA6zZqZWwYYo
The punish'd crime shall set my soul at ease, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANArYwreYlQTo
And murm'ring manes of my friends appease.' 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAZU0RyyOWtG
Thus while I rave, a gleam of pleasing light 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAyZyBtu2pKk
Spread o'er the place; and, shining heav'nly bright, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANADSabMF5XOP
My mother stood reveal'd before my sight 1097Please respect copyright.PENANArkbruSTuq5
Never so radiant did her eyes appear; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAq1OManuBLy
Not her own star confess'd a light so clear: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAR40NnnsTQ9
Great in her charms, as when on gods above 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA0bFy2bO5DD
She looks, and breathes herself into their love. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANASBCz9fYrgl
She held my hand, the destin'd blow to break; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAK1YU7MPJql
Then from her rosy lips began to speak: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA1MoqX2iwDr
'My son, from whence this madness, this neglect 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAljy7mSLLaR
Of my commands, and those whom I protect? 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAgRHRGJsS8k
Why this unmanly rage? Recall to mind 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAi2bugEAK31
Whom you forsake, what pledges leave behind. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAh3HwM38Iy6
Look if your helpless father yet survive, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAjBYgIOdV7R
Or if Ascanius or Creusa live. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA2AO381RTUU
Around your house the greedy Grecians err; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAMeaccZs1gy
And these had perish'd in the nightly war, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAPqYCtZFrsB
But for my presence and protecting care. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANABaTvbRGha1
Not Helen's face, nor Paris, was in fault; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAEhA2DwEmAF
But by the gods was this destruction brought. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA40Hz5kgKWo
Now cast your eyes around, while I dissolve 1097Please respect copyright.PENANALXkbD7kuKq
The mists and films that mortal eyes involve, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAGf9WpNpRul
Purge from your sight the dross, and make you see 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAcpKGfcVrfm
The shape of each avenging deity. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAdnAFU3yxiH
Enlighten'd thus, my just commands fulfil, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA58M8gojSdw
Nor fear obedience to your mother's will. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAESUoejcK9P
Where yon disorder'd heap of ruin lies, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAqEjizGwWE8
Stones rent from stones; where clouds of dust arise- 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAmwqRU1SKFH
Amid that smother Neptune holds his place, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANANgDq0jGfUR
Below the wall's foundation drives his mace, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAliVwYJmvcu
And heaves the building from the solid base. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAF90Yq3ab4V
Look where, in arms, imperial Juno stands 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAX2btHymYCK
Full in the Scaean gate, with loud commands, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA4HN7uxaY3t
Urging on shore the tardy Grecian bands. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANADYDTpKICUl
See! Pallas, of her snaky buckler proud, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAOrISmZZy8r
Bestrides the tow'r, refulgent thro' the cloud: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA99AqxvKCqR
See! Jove new courage to the foe supplies, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA9hw2d63f6B
And arms against the town the partial deities. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAZ3yIoiTJE2
Haste hence, my son; this fruitless labor end: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAeqnTc2HjzO
Haste, where your trembling spouse and sire attend: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA9WyEaCgELI
Haste; and a mother's care your passage shall befriend.' 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAWYTjRfuTeK
She said, and swiftly vanish'd from my sight, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAxEqDMwArKB
Obscure in clouds and gloomy shades of night. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAaQhdHiin1v
I look'd, I listen'd; dreadful sounds I hear; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA47wFLA5POM
And the dire forms of hostile gods appear. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAbGRzoynj6a
Troy sunk in flames I saw (nor could prevent), 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAUIZv3AQnNi
And Ilium from its old foundations rent; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAouZyPIugka
Rent like a mountain ash, which dar'd the winds, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAT5Lb38fhh8
And stood the sturdy strokes of lab'ring hinds. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA8gqQKdSn4s
About the roots the cruel ax resounds; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA6RvFzBABke
The stumps are pierc'd with oft-repeated wounds: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAcmynPvCp1T
The war is felt on high; the nodding crown 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAUnLVqeui8f
Now threats a fall, and throws the leafy honors down. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAMBFtFkQyLC
To their united force it yields, tho' late, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAZM5mSpoQHu
And mourns with mortal groans th' approaching fate: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAmLM3UsQ8xH
The roots no more their upper load sustain; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAhB6XkqXH1e
But down she falls, and spreads a ruin thro' the plain. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANANUgeLyoquR
"Descending thence, I scape thro' foes and fire: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA8ipjpvUXPn
Before the goddess, foes and flames retire. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAXMAbm4TW01
Arriv'd at home, he, for whose only sake, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANARUNF9mUETa
Or most for his, such toils I undertake, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAAhY9SnYeFP
The good Anchises, whom, by timely flight, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAIQxHYCpbVw
I purpos'd to secure on Ida's height, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAGGQPxtebJU
Refus'd the journey, resolute to die 1097Please respect copyright.PENANATOepl75BMJ
And add his fun'rals to the fate of Troy, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA73WMz621h9
Rather than exile and old age sustain. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAo2LJ3wZwvk
'Go you, whose blood runs warm in ev'ry vein. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAIQBhg125Qu
Had Heav'n decreed that I should life enjoy, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAjrwwC4u6Rp
Heav'n had decreed to save unhappy Troy. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA4FbctTb7ej
'T is, sure, enough, if not too much, for one, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAe7ZEV4L1wK
Twice to have seen our Ilium overthrown. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA3w3AIxmaSy
Make haste to save the poor remaining crew, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAjPnIEPf5Jy
And give this useless corpse a long adieu. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAFMMnroAIN3
These weak old hands suffice to stop my breath; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAFGRLipGZSb
At least the pitying foes will aid my death, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAZdBmZ1OjZb
To take my spoils, and leave my body bare: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAUH9N7xtZ3l
As for my sepulcher, let Heav'n take care. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAse9RgQxpEX
'T is long since I, for my celestial wife 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAtGgr38IqJE
Loath'd by the gods, have dragg'd a ling'ring life; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAQJcoiPr0NE
Since ev'ry hour and moment I expire, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAF5iOCah8gP
Blasted from heav'n by Jove's avenging fire.' 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAhsWnluFCD8
This oft repeated, he stood fix'd to die: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA2z5d2F8WsQ
Myself, my wife, my son, my family, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA5hdFA1s5cG
Intreat, pray, beg, and raise a doleful cry- 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAZYUMoUXRJI
'What, will he still persist, on death resolve, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA6NkedWuVFu
And in his ruin all his house involve!' 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA0m17QcvFnC
He still persists his reasons to maintain; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAuoABUqLGtV
Our pray'rs, our tears, our loud laments, are vain. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAlibvt7UBzF
"Urg'd by despair, again I go to try 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAPqVhIJ0MEv
The fate of arms, resolv'd in fight to die: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANATgfYhH3abC
'What hope remains, but what my death must give? 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAvgAWYNXPGo
Can I, without so dear a father, live? 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAyQUoF8j2h2
You term it prudence, what I baseness call: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAgKQ6BpdbxI
Could such a word from such a parent fall? 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAdhSRWHVSqf
If Fortune please, and so the gods ordain, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA2roaifiqcH
That nothing should of ruin'd Troy remain, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA5omsSHT3Zv
And you conspire with Fortune to be slain, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAX9bYXgWtav
The way to death is wide, th' approaches near: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAkD5RhgcOUy
For soon relentless Pyrrhus will appear, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA7XImBSJ42B
Reeking with Priam's blood- the wretch who slew 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA1LCf3jOgrI
The son (inhuman) in the father's view, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAYDyB8ZeqWu
And then the sire himself to the dire altar drew. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAQOBuqVSqYZ
O goddess mother, give me back to Fate; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAdasSfO80CX
Your gift was undesir'd, and came too late! 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAYQcgTz7zNj
Did you, for this, unhappy me convey 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAUWpKKfdjkk
Thro' foes and fires, to see my house a prey? 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA2dCARZMpFX
Shall I my father, wife, and son behold, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAjeCwpeMrEL
Welt'ring in blood, each other's arms infold? 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAcWZqaUGjD6
Haste! gird my sword, tho' spent and overcome: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAdmm5JOKXL7
'T is the last summons to receive our doom. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANADAxfMwpo1l
I hear thee, Fate; and I obey thy call! 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAB1ITwtIWkk
Not unreveng'd the foe shall see my fall. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAktC2LcxKB2
Restore me to the yet unfinish'd fight: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAPyW1WIsCll
My death is wanting to conclude the night.' 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAEiKq6k9vL2
Arm'd once again, my glitt'ring sword I wield, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAZHWMtHu1LX
While th' other hand sustains my weighty shield, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA4UT9TDbz6F
And forth I rush to seek th' abandon'd field. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAJQG7Ffh5S9
I went; but sad Creusa stopp'd my way, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANALkrWuyUvXj
And cross the threshold in my passage lay, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAglV1123imU
Embrac'd my knees, and, when I would have gone, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANALomrGPzH0u
Shew'd me my feeble sire and tender son: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAY9BnswZFbM
'If death be your design, at least,' said she, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAoMbf6k7pQ0
'Take us along to share your destiny. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAMTymWXxsy8
If any farther hopes in arms remain, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAJ7CaNSjALs

To whom do you expose your father's life, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAgbQCHuAxxn
Your son's, and mine, your now forgotten wife!' 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA74u7JCtdYA
While thus she fills the house with clam'rous cries, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA3bV1lhqFAN
Our hearing is diverted by our eyes: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAS9Roqnk2ux
For, while I held my son, in the short space 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAsHixy9eCp0
Betwixt our kisses and our last embrace; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAGMetce9pf1
Strange to relate, from young Iulus' head 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAVnWzg99EZl
A lambent flame arose, which gently spread 1097Please respect copyright.PENANARYREheu3Mb
Around his brows, and on his temples fed. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAC1SoovHa8z
Amaz'd, with running water we prepare 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAGXYLdyNEuC
To quench the sacred fire, and slake his hair; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAgWQWNC9hmf
But old Anchises, vers'd in omens, rear'd 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAFy11X21nBv
His hands to heav'n, and this request preferr'd: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA7s31FyOs42
'If any vows, almighty Jove, can bend 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAlMfjKEMhiB
Thy will; if piety can pray'rs commend, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAtpzqVnSgEI
Confirm the glad presage which thou art pleas'd to send.' 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA2wvPQxDknY
Scarce had he said, when, on our left, we hear 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAmXzFwnQL1Y
A peal of rattling thunder roll in air: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANABwSFuuHQHX
There shot a streaming lamp along the sky, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAdrdIW6pH38
Which on the winged lightning seem'd to fly; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAdU0S5WEZYB
From o'er the roof the blaze began to move, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAOOGiOuL6PU
And, trailing, vanish'd in th' Idaean grove. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAzbnDfSVItC
It swept a path in heav'n, and shone a guide, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAnNydpIbMgY
Then in a steaming stench of sulphur died. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAbxBuNlcRsu
"The good old man with suppliant hands implor'd 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAGAdY5MGbJY
The gods' protection, and their star ador'd. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAmd1JUsLUnG
'Now, now,' said he, 'my son, no more delay! 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAyVCnkvyjMc

Keep, O my country gods, our dwelling place, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAN33oIRMKuq
And guard this relic of the Trojan race, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA1OEEjqomln
This tender child! These omens are your own, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANABLd6omVft1
And you can yet restore the ruin'd town. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAnGjeOlftzE
At least accomplish what your signs foreshow: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAmDurqmFJIe
I stand resign'd, and am prepar'd to go.' 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAFiX20B54MU
"He said. The crackling flames appear on high. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAsmn6sxy1SP
And driving sparkles dance along the sky. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAaDSTlavmRw
With Vulcan's rage the rising winds conspire, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA80jpYpypNW
And near our palace roll the flood of fire. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANANawZ2no1ra
'Haste, my dear father, ('t is no time to wait,) 1097Please respect copyright.PENANArW0xqL6wgv
And load my shoulders with a willing freight. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAnscHeiz6pN
Whate'er befalls, your life shall be my care; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAxaoZLHMJ2D
One death, or one deliv'rance, we will share. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANADitszBh7EG
My hand shall lead our little son; and you, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAKIYAVmv2zC
My faithful consort, shall our steps pursue. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAadTZx0w83O
Next, you, my servants, heed my strict commands: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANANsR4llFNzC
Without the walls a ruin'd temple stands, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAxWq0CAaK7E
To Ceres hallow'd once; a cypress nigh 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAXgrrFZJ7uM
Shoots up her venerable head on high, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA13EJ9CcCPt
By long religion kept; there bend your feet, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA1z5LNXWm28
And in divided parties let us meet. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANARyGjgCs1mL
Our country gods, the relics, and the bands, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA4KMjfW6cQx
Hold you, my father, in your guiltless hands: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAGYtFz3B7he
In me 't is impious holy things to bear, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAsghhwjrjpw
Red as I am with slaughter, new from war, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAtXAPDM6Kfb
Till in some living stream I cleanse the guilt 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAwSR39JGlrx
Of dire debate, and blood in battle spilt.' 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAtUNJwnOuK2
Thus, ord'ring all that prudence could provide, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAghqCPt2UAD
I clothe my shoulders with a lion's hide 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAEGuA5qZpjB
And yellow spoils; then, on my bending back, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAqHHdLOmXWE
The welcome load of my dear father take; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAIIN95rPLDB
While on my better hand Ascanius hung, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA9AE5rZC9fx
And with unequal paces tripp'd along. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA1eXZosElEQ
Creusa kept behind; by choice we stray 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA5wZurnpPJM
Thro' ev'ry dark and ev'ry devious way. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAYWLqmktanP
I, who so bold and dauntless, just before, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAiRG0ViYUza
The Grecian darts and shock of lances bore, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA5AiFLAmxMY
At ev'ry shadow now am seiz'd with fear, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA4Ni55v0l5Z
Not for myself, but for the charge I bear; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAMGKDvM1sOW
Till, near the ruin'd gate arriv'd at last, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA2QqkNiWnRT
Secure, and deeming all the danger past, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAOJGcPOsSJJ
A frightful noise of trampling feet we hear. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAF1QaiSXlG5
My father, looking thro' the shades, with fear, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAi598uI5Anw
Cried out: 'Haste, haste, my son, the foes are nigh; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAg2e5baBAl3
Their swords and shining armor I descry.' 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAtkKAWnMZdM
Some hostile god, for some unknown offense, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANASyu8U3XqjH
Had sure bereft my mind of better sense; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAkkWHhdtlJp
For, while thro' winding ways I took my flight, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAm4E6qdiDJv
And sought the shelter of the gloomy night, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA3LVCmxu9YM
Alas! I lost Creusa: hard to tell 1097Please respect copyright.PENANARYJ4oEqDUd
If by her fatal destiny she fell, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAKfh06rTMWz
Or weary sate, or wander'd with affright; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANADlSAhCJ9O1
But she was lost for ever to my sight. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA04ntFFFhU7
I knew not, or reflected, till I meet 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAwj9JRLR105
My friends, at Ceres' now deserted seat. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA66wQ9NqkKC
We met: not one was wanting; only she 1097Please respect copyright.PENANALKesoEv7K5
Deceiv'd her friends, her son, and wretched me. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAlEezi5P78a
"What mad expressions did my tongue refuse! 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAeIXeMR4gRc
Whom did I not, of gods or men, accuse! 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAifJu87V86P
This was the fatal blow, that pain'd me more 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAw2rWcaLp9D
Than all I felt from ruin'd Troy before. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANApXu8BBfLYE
Stung with my loss, and raving with despair, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA7XfltkeLlo
Abandoning my now forgotten care, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA60fxirbqxi
Of counsel, comfort, and of hope bereft, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAbKGmLsay7B
My sire, my son, my country gods I left. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA2rV8bvf9al
In shining armor once again I sheathe 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAAEseCb1Nvn
My limbs, not feeling wounds, nor fearing death. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAX5E3jy3Tpx
Then headlong to the burning walls I run, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA2388tXpj8N
And seek the danger I was forc'd to shun. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAGtrawk4Mzd
I tread my former tracks; thro' night explore 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAUVa4s5SxSI
Each passage, ev'ry street I cross'd before. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAPKGZfl8IoC
All things were full of horror and affright, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA2IByMkFB4J
And dreadful ev'n the silence of the night. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAYnwyZZvl2E
Then to my father's house I make repair, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAJMIOvOJ6jb
With some small glimpse of hope to find her there. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAJLENeFwzBF
Instead of her, the cruel Greeks I met; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAXgnDcpYABO
The house was fill'd with foes, with flames beset. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAynlMZyWuLV
Driv'n on the wings of winds, whole sheets of fire, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAJWCMQ0nBBl
Thro' air transported, to the roofs aspire. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAi0l2N3lOLX
From thence to Priam's palace I resort, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAuWZcW3rvwN
And search the citadel and desart court. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAzhb2R08BZH
Then, unobserv'd, I pass by Juno's church: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAWcnLEe9LIZ
A guard of Grecians had possess'd the porch; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAgbh8ScmfgQ
There Phoenix and Ulysses watch prey, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAUbdDRAxHHY
And thither all the wealth of Troy convey: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAj3SUFJHttp
The spoils which they from ransack'd houses brought, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA6PBhIBLBKl
And golden bowls from burning altars caught, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA0ZLU07JA0P
The tables of the gods, the purple vests, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAXV68DRnthC
The people's treasure, and the pomp of priests. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAnm9YmrCaD1
A rank of wretched youths, with pinion'd hands, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAP6SSvUBxDY
And captive matrons, in long order stands. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAeKOsKQAMfp
Then, with ungovern'd madness, I proclaim, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAgmaQFsoUPk
Thro' all the silent street, Creusa's name: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAe607mc2LLn
Creusa still I call; at length she hears, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAZxv1LvWe19
And sudden thro' the shades of night appears- 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAhfe8XlVtQK
Appears, no more Creusa, nor my wife, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAfmTmzsbUsJ
But a pale specter, larger than the life. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAQs345yjc3g
Aghast, astonish'd, and struck dumb with fear, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAZD14dYdfts
I stood; like bristles rose my stiffen'd hair. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAh9wAP01zjK
Then thus the ghost began to soothe my grief 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAVwzWtk5zSZ
'Nor tears, nor cries, can give the dead relief. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAgFsM9PFb4A
Desist, my much-lov'd lord,'t indulge your pain; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANASgTRjc0oOD
You bear no more than what the gods ordain. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAmk1WzFhZPG
My fates permit me not from hence to fly; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAmh0NuSmPun
Nor he, the great controller of the sky. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAqZwWV7cksA
Long wand'ring ways for you the pow'rs decree; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAjJBUeea058
On land hard labors, and a length of sea. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAi02i9pJqoz
Then, after many painful years are past, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA1aQ89rA4qn
On Latium's happy shore you shall be cast, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAEekAFWam3b
Where gentle Tiber from his bed beholds 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA5Tj0sVF1hF
The flow'ry meadows, and the feeding folds. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANANkKYZ6LPQy
There end your toils; and there your fates provide 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAV6oyf8GLyL
A quiet kingdom, and a royal bride: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAayil5y2XAL
There fortune shall the Trojan line restore, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANApPG51ZqYbL
And you for lost Creusa weep no more. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAlZWd1ZO3Wh
Fear not that I shall watch, with servile shame, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAuBmhpuFuiN
Th' imperious looks of some proud Grecian dame; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANArGK5DdPxKv
Or, stooping to the victor's lust, disgrace 1097Please respect copyright.PENANABhSr3hDXmt
My goddess mother, or my royal race. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAjEfuS2w7Bu
And now, farewell! The parent of the gods 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAfDA1f7ozTI
Restrains my fleeting soul in her abodes: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAwSBepTUI5p
I trust our common issue to your care.' 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAn6RrUbDgEk
She said, and gliding pass'd unseen in air. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAF3fO5oPZbM
I strove to speak: but horror tied my tongue; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAkEW3maD4kZ
And thrice about her neck my arms I flung, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAdq14RKlhmW
And, thrice deceiv'd, on vain embraces hung. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANACoMXxZXIML
Light as an empty dream at break of day, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAdhNJhWNiKq
Or as a blast of wind, she rush'd away. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA45PMSzpBP6
"Thus having pass'd the night in fruitless pain, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAMD3HerWdJc
I to my longing friends return again, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAWLSAeJPGfN
Amaz'd th' augmented number to behold, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAFGU7hMHEGd
Of men and matrons mix'd, of young and old; 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA8i9xQLcbGq
A wretched exil'd crew together brought, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAROia7iYsHQ
With arms appointed, and with treasure fraught, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANABRZPpyb3L6
Resolv'd, and willing, under my command, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA2pzMfJSEAw
To run all hazards both of sea and land. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAmHyaMOaU43
The Morn began, from Ida, to display 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAah3UsFvpdS
Her rosy cheeks; and Phosphor led the day: 1097Please respect copyright.PENANABAAittCIlr
Before the gates the Grecians took their post, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA3bXh9tZoSI
And all pretense of late relief was lost. 1097Please respect copyright.PENANABSh44BFweA
I yield to Fate, unwillingly retire, 1097Please respect copyright.PENANAvExf1HUdP2
And, loaded, up the hill convey my sire." 1097Please respect copyright.PENANA2jPeIIpfO6
