Meantime the Trojan cuts his wat'ry way, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAT6QvJfPPKp
Fix'd on his voyage, thro' the curling sea; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAgJZRMeLxAC
Then, casting back his eyes, with dire amaze, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAn07zSwc3u7
Sees on the Punic shore the mounting blaze. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAtZSzsWMPNx
The cause unknown; yet his presaging mind 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfa2gID4CMF
The fate of Dido from the fire divin'd; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAffEvZ3y7yA
He knew the stormy souls of womankind, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAlW0DiPGGWN
What secret springs their eager passions move, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANApUEoPQ9tSy
How capable of death for injur'd love. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAi18oh0bgET
Dire auguries from hence the Trojans draw; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAUE4cvqcxtq
Till neither fires nor shining shores they saw. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAdzK80xtHOm
Now seas and skies their prospect only bound; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA8efEt2dpJM
An empty space above, a floating field around. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA9G9CVM483V
But soon the heav'ns with shadows were o'erspread; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANABVfpYUwlVu
A swelling cloud hung hov'ring o'er their head: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAErJJtuX9cp
Livid it look'd, the threat'ning of a storm: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAxmuEpEsMUe
Then night and horror ocean's face deform. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANABIWCAAlGRX
The pilot, Palinurus, cried aloud: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAXwH5cE8AoA
"What gusts of weather from that gath'ring cloud 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAGPA4OFzDIH
My thoughts presage! Ere yet the tempest roars, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA4T0o0y8pkN
Stand to your tackle, mates, and stretch your oars; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANADKFClQ4TZw
Contract your swelling sails, and luff to wind." 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAGOa8Ir2Jbw
The frighted crew perform the task assign'd. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAL57hx2qDrF
Then, to his fearless chief: "Not Heav'n," said he, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAaeYTm9bMV3
"Tho' Jove himself should promise Italy, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAwQdfuM2tJi
Can stem the torrent of this raging sea. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANArRK5AR0ILB
Mark how the shifting winds from west arise, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAlehqwe2L75
And what collected night involves the skies! 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAbTFW3C8iUX
Nor can our shaken vessels live at sea, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAz3vNNtue37
Much less against the tempest force their way. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAQGJ6foesdg
'T is fate diverts our course, and fate we must obey. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAEyWJKDugHi
Not far from hence, if I observ'd aright 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAIHEEMO4Vf4
The southing of the stars, and polar light, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAa43jUNwH15
Sicilia lies, whose hospitable shores 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAJUeZ2HPtWL
In safety we may reach with struggling oars." 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAcFrjYaHFYT
Aeneas then replied: "Too sure I find 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAxJDJzzefeH
We strive in vain against the seas and wind: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA4tbmB5lGMf
Now shift your sails; what place can please me more 1311Please respect copyright.PENANALzd3OYFu6G
Than what you promise, the Sicilian shore, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA5tmXPzIOWT
Whose hallow'd earth Anchises' bones contains, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAV9a0PJeftI
And where a prince of Trojan lineage reigns?" 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAQ1a3JNJh9g
The course resolv'd, before the western wind 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAPjRCIh4uRz
They scud amain, and make the port assign'd. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAUEcipwrEP5
Meantime Acestes, from a lofty stand, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAkvSW8W5mYG
Beheld the fleet descending on the land; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAvQP0BeNYDe
And, not unmindful of his ancient race, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAf1UbRrE0Go
Down from the cliff he ran with eager pace, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANANzIhKcOTcI
And held the hero in a strict embrace. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA0HnyfoXSF8
Of a rough Libyan bear the spoils he wore, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA4ZEE9aYi3I
And either hand a pointed jav'lin bore. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANADg5yTYvLlr
His mother was a dame of Dardan blood; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAguINbHSKXB
His sire Crinisus, a Sicilian flood. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA7P0TNfbIma
He welcomes his returning friends ashore 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAqkZ4vgAWxw
With plenteous country cates and homely store. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAy3pp2WELn0
Now, when the following morn had chas'd away 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAlkOkj4NIWc
The flying stars, and light restor'd the day, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAaTgafLKtwd
Aeneas call'd the Trojan troops around, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAozpG5K08Ot
And thus bespoke them from a rising ground: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAGTVWVl68C1
"Offspring of heav'n, divine Dardanian race! 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA1I5uJUjC6Q
The sun, revolving thro' th' ethereal space, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfR4uBLhML6
The shining circle of the year has fill'd, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAbTphtLZT9m
Since first this isle my father's ashes held: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAbiB9AedmB4
And now the rising day renews the year; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA9Jrel1pGP3
A day for ever sad, for ever dear. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA5t7mGDiErZ
This would I celebrate with annual games, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAEkLVgNI7DZ
With gifts on altars pil'd, and holy flames, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAGOG9txs964
Tho' banish'd to Gaetulia's barren sands, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAhMCwn3ywRJ
Caught on the Grecian seas, or hostile lands: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAhBFEf2F43U
But since this happy storm our fleet has driv'n 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAQ9RiuBtnG0
(Not, as I deem, without the will of Heav'n) 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAOmaz805W7H
Upon these friendly shores and flow'ry plains, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANANJUbcTnJxu
Which hide Anchises and his blest remains, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAQ2BzhnesBD
Let us with joy perform his honors due, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAV8J2Jz8DRz
And pray for prosp'rous winds, our voyage to renew; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAGQoBCddXwB
Pray, that in towns and temples of our own, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAkJsbIYXYPm
The name of great Anchises may be known, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfuharflRTl
And yearly games may spread the gods' renown. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAelbBHhRzj2
Our sports Acestes, of the Trojan race, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANALx81RvNLLT
With royal gifts ordain'd, is pleas'd to grace: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAcJ8JeHBnFi
Two steers on ev'ry ship the king bestows; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA4PxrS2iy7W
His gods and ours shall share your equal vows. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAzjqaCvKkME
Besides, if, nine days hence, the rosy morn 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAYqK6psrnME
Shall with unclouded light the skies adorn, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAOctg5T08vE
That day with solemn sports I mean to grace: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAO2R432vzIR
Light galleys on the seas shall run a wat'ry race; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAlY4N2gZrIF
Some shall in swiftness for the goal contend, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAEEHC1L5oP8
And others try the twanging bow to bend; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAgw08uKLfrR
The strong, with iron gauntlets arm'd, shall stand 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA7Iv352nbHg
Oppos'd in combat on the yellow sand. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAib2G8EfLpl
Let all be present at the games prepar'd, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAEqEY0mdcP0
And joyful victors wait the just reward. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA4QqIBWcvwN
But now assist the rites, with garlands crown'd." 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAkmgWuFOpQd
He said, and first his brows with myrtle bound. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAdUpNpKUHhY
Then Helymus, by his example led, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAhJmjRvwuyN
And old Acestes, each adorn'd his head; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAB4mpbWrYwT
Thus young Ascanius, with a sprightly grace, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAt25ZPnk00D
His temples tied, and all the Trojan race. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAiYaqFKwXEi
Aeneas then advanc'd amidst the train, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAuQMEZqEwDX
By thousands follow'd thro' the flow'ry plain, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAzlVfCHgzxf
To great Anchises' tomb; which when he found, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAL2H82zql0u
He pour'd to Bacchus, on the hallow'd ground, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAQHzyAxeqZF
Two bowls of sparkling wine, of milk two more, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfSjDOA5JgJ
And two (from offer'd bulls) of purple gore, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAgyl8eJ6Uhf
With roses then the sepulcher he strow'd 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAoFHGW41UmA
And thus his father's ghost bespoke aloud: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA4XHMMSN5pl
"Hail, O ye holy manes! hail again, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAE7N9lHiCJH
Paternal ashes, now review'd in vain! 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAYbzDny2P3w
The gods permitted not, that you, with me, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAA7MjyVrTcU
Should reach the promis'd shores of Italy, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANACmTHD3pM3s
Or Tiber's flood, what flood soe'er it be." 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAvRM6iZIzmy
Scarce had he finish'd, when, with speckled pride, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAHLfY3vZeu4
A serpent from the tomb began to glide; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAYiIXCui62t
His hugy bulk on sev'n high volumes roll'd; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAknrpUAkc6f
Blue was his breadth of back, but streak'd with scaly gold: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAUFNkBXCg8D
Thus riding on his curls, he seem'd to pass 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAX0q26NY83B
A rolling fire along, and singe the grass. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAgxVgqJ4AYH
More various colors thro' his body run, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANASqd9DmdL5z
Than Iris when her bow imbibes the sun. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAlaXV8pOePT
Betwixt the rising altars, and around, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA1BscBWtjaK
The sacred monster shot along the ground; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAJDmuCYrR2b
With harmless play amidst the bowls he pass'd, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAsRuqiJtNgW
And with his lolling tongue assay'd the taste: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANALjFYltpf7e
Thus fed with holy food, the wondrous guest 1311Please respect copyright.PENANATZCWNghTOb
Within the hollow tomb retir'd to rest. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAZPRQwg45Zv
The pious prince, surpris'd at what he view'd, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANATPynXauqHY
The fun'ral honors with more zeal renew'd, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAgQzexWPqFV
Doubtful if this place's genius were, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA1A6DJDutHv
Or guardian of his father's sepulcher. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAyka4AbAoJy
Five sheep, according to the rites, he slew; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA2NgowZpxoh
As many swine, and steers of sable hue; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAPgl50s7b0X
New gen'rous wine he from the goblets pour'd. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANANgK2LcAIdQ
And call'd his father's ghost, from hell restor'd. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANADAwwKWB0mt
The glad attendants in long order come, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANARzw0ZykRZj
Off'ring their gifts at great Anchises' tomb: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAzpUtqz0trk
Some add more oxen: some divide the spoil; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAw96tu5c4oL
Some place the chargers on the grassy soil; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA65UIA9io8y
Some blow the fires, and off entrails broil. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAVjz4GTG3ab
Now came the day desir'd. The skies were bright 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfGNbz5Onzp
With rosy luster of the rising light: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANASeglm72rrI
The bord'ring people, rous'd by sounding fame 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAI42yOYmSQW
Of Trojan feasts and great Acestes' name, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAgQq4Vzk7Cp
The crowded shore with acclamations fill, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAyPFxjAdRL0
Part to behold, and part to prove their skill. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAIeacOpF327
And first the gifts in public view they place, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAlrtDkeJJ05
Green laurel wreaths, and palm, the victors' grace: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA1arkszmK2a
Within the circle, arms and tripods lie, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAHGsOrRdKjW
Ingots of gold and silver, heap'd on high, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAwPG1FrRe4k
And vests embroider'd, of the Tyrian dye. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAWHRu3obx0J
The trumpet's clangor then the feast proclaims, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANApeaEoWA5nH
And all prepare for their appointed games. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA7FX2b5KaEM
Four galleys first, which equal rowers bear, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAU7mYq9vme0
Advancing, in the wat'ry lists appear. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAVK5xeW3S9Q
The speedy Dolphin, that outstrips the wind, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAn7zzCR4K5G
Bore Mnestheus, author of the Memmian kind: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAYHgXtHMBoN
Gyas the vast Chimaera's bulk commands, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA5ozDzEBclw
Which rising, like a tow'ring city stands; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAHCm2nhLxFd
Three Trojans tug at ev'ry lab'ring oar; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANANBZofLAn3P
Three banks in three degrees the sailors bore; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANApHo0zwceIl
Beneath their sturdy strokes the billows roar. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA1TPRPaTrj1
Sergesthus, who began the Sergian race, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANArFTVipZ5BB
In the great Centaur took the leading place; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAG59tCoWXfW
Cloanthus on the sea-green Scylla stood, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfHTOrXH03s
From whom Cluentius draws his Trojan blood. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAjrci6STr7l
Far in the sea, against the foaming shore, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAAiXGDFOUqF
There stands a rock: the raging billows roar 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAEissO0wL32
Above his head in storms; but, when 't is clear, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAdsdClTSOxw
Uncurl their ridgy backs, and at his foot appear. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAIZanZyyoL1
In peace below the gentle waters run; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANArwHAGQtjOd
The cormorants above lie basking in the sun. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAmxpt9HlKAi
On this the hero fix'd an oak in sight, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAAWWUT1kjgU
The mark to guide the mariners aright. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAKGGspRckmv
To bear with this, the seamen stretch their oars; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA90kqO5hlJf
Then round the rock they steer, and seek the former shores. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAEIAQwqj7qG
The lots decide their place. Above the rest, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAWCLRm6glLc
Each leader shining in his Tyrian vest; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA5wRYjTVsLW
The common crew with wreaths of poplar boughs 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAlRzO0zGvQu
Their temples crown, and shade their sweaty brows: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAZ4vJwoDgfq
Besmear'd with oil, their naked shoulders shine. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAhvXZ0kLsIO
All take their seats, and wait the sounding sign: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAIYgDUMOXnm
They gripe their oars; and ev'ry panting breast 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAtTLUMrrgY4
Is rais'd by turns with hope, by turns with fear depress'd. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAHnXKUnRauD
The clangor of the trumpet gives the sign; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAjyO9gByJ1m
At once they start, advancing in a line: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAKTMUKmvXqf
With shouts the sailors rend the starry skies; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANABdwMGEci9e
Lash'd with their oars, the smoky billows rise; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA3AwcEjT9YH
Sparkles the briny main, and the vex'd ocean fries. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfnDDbnx4vc
Exact in time, with equal strokes they row: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA2QHwcFBCd8
At once the brushing oars and brazen prow 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAyoen5mv91R
Dash up the sandy waves, and ope the depths below. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAzDs7krvjCI
Not fiery coursers, in a chariot race, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAQpSZedxkcS
Invade the field with half so swift a pace; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA4kriHugus5
Not the fierce driver with more fury lends 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAMCEfo9aDeQ
The sounding lash, and, ere the stroke descends, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAPN3okxI6pR
Low to the wheels his pliant body bends. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAP672eyzpz8
The partial crowd their hopes and fears divide, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAX2PiSITj20
And aid with eager shouts the favor'd side. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAoq9EeVpnzF
Cries, murmurs, clamors, with a mixing sound, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAscM2fPF4QK
From woods to woods, from hills to hills rebound. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAjU3NyQegFC
Amidst the loud applauses of the shore, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAKrQZ27udk1
Gyas outstripp'd the rest, and sprung before: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAOuWkn7HcNI
Cloanthus, better mann'd, pursued him fast, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAgOvqaKOUsO
But his o'er-masted galley check'd his haste. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAn8fdDqC5LX
The Centaur and the Dolphin brush the brine 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA9LQRkotkTL
With equal oars, advancing in a line; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANArvItqNUwyj
And now the mighty Centaur seems to lead, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAA3MwlrIDGc
And now the speedy Dolphin gets ahead; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANABNKAq56UuH
Now board to board the rival vessels row, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAaaOJy4UdhT
The billows lave the skies, and ocean groans below. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANABuIIrwA43B
They reach'd the mark. Proud Gyas and his train 1311Please respect copyright.PENANACFaRECg2ua
In triumph rode, the victors of the main; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA7rrEffRUgV
But, steering round, he charg'd his pilot stand 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA7XkokFl4X1
More close to shore, and skim along the sand- 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAPSLQ4kJBaI
"Let others bear to sea!" Menoetes heard; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAAmErSteDto
But secret shelves too cautiously he fear'd, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAkz3Nr7eHff
And, fearing, sought the deep; and still aloof he steer'd. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAEED2RscNeS
With louder cries the captain call'd again: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAbroC1tK4ix
"Bear to the rocky shore, and shun the main." 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA3AHvTbnDX4
He spoke, and, speaking, at his stern he saw 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAQimCub8tXo
The bold Cloanthus near the shelvings draw. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAXz4AgSjPfH
Betwixt the mark and him the Scylla stood, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAqq8THcLuVC
And in a closer compass plow'd the flood. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA34MqaXdThN
He pass'd the mark; and, wheeling, got before: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAYqBEwMdpvL
Gyas blasphem'd the gods, devoutly swore, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAJN2wnrky0s
Cried out for anger, and his hair he tore. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAzha7al1a2E
Mindless of others' lives (so high was grown 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAOLYIw7GuUl
His rising rage) and careless of his own, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA0LNjxJCRcl
The trembling dotard to the deck he drew; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAt8nJDNykBL
Then hoisted up, and overboard he threw: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANACIMOrfAiDP
This done, he seiz'd the helm; his fellows cheer'd, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAEkb8b1lmDk
Turn'd short upon the shelfs, and madly steer'd. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAFsEZmLEEta
Hardly his head the plunging pilot rears, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAN0SjnCAqjd
Clogg'd with his clothes, and cumber'd with his years: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAUOh6CcT0qf
Now dropping wet, he climbs the cliff with pain. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAPLassmGw0L
The crowd, that saw him fall and float again, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAbWPaKS5T15
Shout from the distant shore; and loudly laugh'd, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA17PhTDJ6b0
To see his heaving breast disgorge the briny draught. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAHS1Bp4rPRU
The following Centaur, and the Dolphin's crew, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAlklyvLGpvk
Their vanish'd hopes of victory renew; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAztKNnX1EcE
While Gyas lags, they kindle in the race, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAn4Jk6cFNdL
To reach the mark. Sergesthus takes the place; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAkNkkMybf5a
Mnestheus pursues; and while around they wind, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAzuK1IUQeyY
Comes up, not half his galley's length behind; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANABCpHbr6ozS
Then, on the deck, amidst his mates appear'd, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANABGm0HkvPil
And thus their drooping courage he cheer'd: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANALo0C74Uf1B
"My friends, and Hector's followers heretofore, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAs59xUTjA3J
Exert your vigor; tug the lab'ring oar; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAQL1iulUd13
Stretch to your strokes, my still unconquer'd crew, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAyJWu8f1qRp
Whom from the flaming walls of Troy I drew. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAeZG3B2Hsoq
In this, our common int'rest, let me find 1311Please respect copyright.PENANADFTDyaU9WK
That strength of hand, that courage of the mind, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAx1RkyGmv9j
As when you stemm'd the strong Malean flood, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAvY15p4GLv7
And o'er the Syrtes' broken billows row'd. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA3pLtSKPbmu
I seek not now the foremost palm to gain; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAK0pYNurvLM
Tho' yet- but, ah! that haughty wish is vain! 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfCasgzduPY
Let those enjoy it whom the gods ordain. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAmkb2sCKFwI
But to be last, the lags of all the race!- 1311Please respect copyright.PENANARXYbhrJvSl
Redeem yourselves and me from that disgrace." 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAcuqQmSzlf2
Now, one and all, they tug amain; they row 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAT319cPNTrV
At the full stretch, and shake the brazen prow. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAPl3a1GIbbZ
The sea beneath 'em sinks; their lab'ring sides 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAzq4MqYJcFc
Are swell'd, and sweat runs gutt'ring down in tides. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAg56gDByEk0
Chance aids their daring with unhop'd success; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAPIemqE1aaG
Sergesthus, eager with his beak to press 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAwcjEBc7JU4
Betwixt the rival galley and the rock, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANADQs8RFoDl7
Shuts up th' unwieldly Centaur in the lock. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAK1LGQF9Irj
The vessel struck; and, with the dreadful shock, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA4lqf70rQwh
Her oars she shiver'd, and her head she broke. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAYAIaevVVMe
The trembling rowers from their banks arise, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAl9jBHdSVOV
And, anxious for themselves, renounce the prize. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAcOmjETg4Ay
With iron poles they heave her off the shores, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAyGhl0N8rZX
And gather from the sea their floating oars. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAw9XTXYUWVA
The crew of Mnestheus, with elated minds, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAUMv1c7wal6
Urge their success, and call the willing winds; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA7YMrPilCmg
Then ply their oars, and cut their liquid way 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAvRiD9CqVgR
In larger compass on the roomy sea. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAAgbryjvVJ0
As, when the dove her rocky hold forsakes, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA9gVSoaeux5
Rous'd in a fright, her sounding wings she shakes; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANABIME9tY3RX
The cavern rings with clatt'ring; out she flies, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA6DwYXsJAt8
And leaves her callow care, and cleaves the skies: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAn1RCqldlXN
At first she flutters; but at length she springs 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAKMPmEGXaW8
To smoother flight, and shoots upon her wings: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAiVyrI2w3iV
So Mnestheus in the Dolphin cuts the sea; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAgkq2UQ3Fkc
And, flying with a force, that force assists his way. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAZJvLh4xIpq
Sergesthus in the Centaur soon he pass'd, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAnpOPP06n3H
Wedg'd in the rocky shoals, and sticking fast. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAlPWdRfw8oV
In vain the victor he with cries implores, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAjjx7fVTZN5
And practices to row with shatter'd oars. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAmvv30oo6mm
Then Mnestheus bears with Gyas, and outflies: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANALVZcjalbOC
The ship, without a pilot, yields the prize. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAstwWNmY9IE
Unvanquish'd Scylla now alone remains; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANADxsGg3amqp
Her he pursues, and all his vigor strains. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAQyKDvwrIHe
Shouts from the fav'ring multitude arise; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAIv94TFpEQn
Applauding Echo to the shouts replies; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAg6rq648ZO3
Shouts, wishes, and applause run rattling thro' the skies. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAqdxh64laVJ
These clamors with disdain the Scylla heard, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA6yrtYxFhbB
Much grudg'd the praise, but more the robb'd reward: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA4oNslxC8Zt
Resolv'd to hold their own, they mend their pace, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAGl4wBoC6e9
All obstinate to die, or gain the race. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAhRDEzFwIvc
Rais'd with success, the Dolphin swiftly ran; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAiMwyn8zb7P
For they can conquer, who believe they can. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAaSsFfbzkVk
Both urge their oars, and fortune both supplies, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAr8sCSBI0yh
And both perhaps had shar'd an equal prize; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAcam3w9FLgp
When to the seas Cloanthus holds his hands, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAVWcYz1vjrg
And succor from the wat'ry pow'rs demands: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAnjWKI7qvjY
"Gods of the liquid realms, on which I row! 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA98Tj7UF2b3
If, giv'n by you, the laurel bind my brow, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANABvn2FcD7Ke
Assist to make me guilty of my vow! 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAoaxw2iYQz1
A snow-white bull shall on your shore be slain; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAoymZ91vnCa
His offer'd entrails cast into the main, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANArpcIjAAhs2
And ruddy wine, from golden goblets thrown, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAlGs8VKS2dd
Your grateful gift and my return shall own." 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAM9kcFe2Zma
The choir of nymphs, and Phorcus, from below, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAU3S960F3TO
With virgin Panopea, heard his vow; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAvkIpESJA5S
And old Portunus, with his breadth of hand, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAMk8ffeeyEQ
Push'd on, and sped the galley to the land. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAdFZx0qdiI2
Swift as a shaft, or winged wind, she flies, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAxGhRxlqAAf
And, darting to the port, obtains the prize. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAOagIlAwGww
The herald summons all, and then proclaims 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAuZm75fz4Nm
Cloanthus conqu'ror of the naval games. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAMPCJEj0byS
The prince with laurel crowns the victor's head, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAYHJUWhW8Hd
And three fat steers are to his vessel led, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANArDhVDZesX8
The ship's reward; with gen'rous wine beside, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAMHNXI8dwBs
And sums of silver, which the crew divide. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAUP66BlmA9N
The leaders are distinguish'd from the rest; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAPNjAyRAsM2
The victor honor'd with a nobler vest, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAj2oQbDzabd
Where gold and purple strive in equal rows, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAiNUmyO2tFq
And needlework its happy cost bestows. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAU1NtoqasX3
There Ganymede is wrought with living art, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAlcpWP6e2ld
Chasing thro' Ida's groves the trembling hart: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAciQppWUsBX
Breathless he seems, yet eager to pursue; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAsZn27QETJn
When from aloft descends, in open view, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAnbOd0km4wP
The bird of Jove, and, sousing on his prey, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAmBpp5LmvJa
With crooked talons bears the boy away. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAAFZdoTnkDC
In vain, with lifted hands and gazing eyes, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANABvFDnMBVEw
His guards behold him soaring thro' the skies, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA2m6ApdQiqx
And dogs pursue his flight with imitated cries. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAic5OF2RGE2
Mnestheus the second victor was declar'd; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAYsxrLMNYoY
And, summon'd there, the second prize he shard. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAvENJgHjNq8
A coat of mail, brave Demoleus bore, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA4GxwzHIS1h
More brave Aeneas from his shoulders tore, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAxjKDqCDnZG
In single combat on the Trojan shore: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANABWjy7QiYvH
This was ordain'd for Mnestheus to possess; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAXWoxxrgXPL
In war for his defense, for ornament in peace. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAKNjKEKbYXh
Rich was the gift, and glorious to behold, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAQ2m1qhOBme
But yet so pond'rous with its plates of gold, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAspDChWVYW8
That scarce two servants could the weight sustain; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAjs6xojI5OA
Yet, loaded thus, Demoleus o'er the plain 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAtJt4h2Yj4w
Pursued and lightly seiz'd the Trojan train. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANASkyB6A9Hn2
The third, succeeding to the last reward, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAqj3Y4XUSHY
Two goodly bowls of massy silver shar'd, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAHohTfyKnhf
With figures prominent, and richly wrought, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAzOMrOwpvQm
And two brass caldrons from Dodona brought. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAe5ghZ1yrxW
Thus all, rewarded by the hero's hands, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA5KlaXZhHGA
Their conqu'ring temples bound with purple bands; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA0Xxwk6iXoH
And now Sergesthus, clearing from the rock, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAMnrkkrZi1p
Brought back his galley shatter'd with the shock. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANACkvf7II3ZM
Forlorn she look'd, without an aiding oar, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA8UOt2zq0B6
And, houted by the vulgar, made to shore. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANABimcVLmGt0
As when a snake, surpris'd upon the road, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA3oXnhyogMn
Is crush'd athwart her body by the load 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAFSyRoQt7Ec
Of heavy wheels; or with a mortal wound 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAlGivAoOkQs
Her belly bruis'd, and trodden to the ground: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAKJGpqxCJRr
In vain, with loosen'd curls, she crawls along; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAiVvwYnb0wA
Yet, fierce above, she brandishes her tongue; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA0rqB7z6ZJY
Glares with her eyes, and bristles with her scales; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAQtVQGjtXBf
But, groveling in the dust, her parts unsound she trails: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAieVHXTejou
So slowly to the port the Centaur tends, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAMTFlW7mXCD
But, what she wants in oars, with sails amends. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAgWewNDKY0y
Yet, for his galley sav'd, the grateful prince 1311Please respect copyright.PENANARlMMcX8xCk
Is pleas'd th' unhappy chief to recompense. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfphwN8m7yP
Pholoe, the Cretan slave, rewards his care, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAowjxiZX1j6
Beauteous herself, with lovely twins as fair. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANArX4SDMs8OS
From thence his way the Trojan hero bent 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAjWQz96cLyI
Into the neighb'ring plain, with mountains pent, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAWDQONihoAy
Whose sides were shaded with surrounding wood. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANApn7l57CSRp
Full in the midst of this fair valley stood 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAtJcXc4MGB3
A native theater, which, rising slow 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAvxuBIUe7B6
By just degrees, o'erlook'd the ground below. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAiOPtrV4aMV
High on a sylvan throne the leader sate; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAg9wxHQRNtT
A num'rous train attend in solemn state. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA8rnc6ezrFc
Here those that in the rapid course delight, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAlemoM30600
Desire of honor and the prize invite. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAsKr3RXzyiy
The rival runners without order stand; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAAwQffSgVKO
The Trojans mix'd with the Sicilian band. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA53rqjx4qkn
First Nisus, with Euryalus, appears; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAT4hb2Zmz6Z
Euryalus a boy of blooming years, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAl99gMCzuLq
With sprightly grace and equal beauty crown'd; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAFwdVlot1Zk
Nisus, for friendship to the youth renown'd. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAB8lrbon9yX
Diores next, of Priam's royal race, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAqOHnMZiHpG
Then Salius joined with Patron, took their place; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAShkmYUYepW
(But Patron in Arcadia had his birth, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAaNRv91cZgh
And Salius his from Arcananian earth;) 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAXcQZ5QU6aF
Then two Sicilian youths- the names of these, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANApOuf8DGyvI
Swift Helymus, and lovely Panopes: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAbEONjZTDdo
Both jolly huntsmen, both in forest bred, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA9t6OgXWQ2I
And owning old Acestes for their head; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAykV3kNkHOD
With sev'ral others of ignobler name, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAr0BYm4irHL
Whom time has not deliver'd o'er to fame. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfEgdniS2KI
To these the hero thus his thoughts explain'd, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAUwERsQ6SLU
In words which gen'ral approbation gain'd: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANApENT1Fy90u
"One common largess is for all design'd, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAJg5XZItEdr
(The vanquish'd and the victor shall be join'd,) 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAWiwVdu6oLb
Two darts of polish'd steel and Gnosian wood, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAAz1YT2sCPT
A silver-studded ax, alike bestow'd. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAca8qP9GZKF
The foremost three have olive wreaths decreed: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAgoW4N1eVxC
The first of these obtains a stately steed, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAJ6pznkWjBR
Adorn'd with trappings; and the next in fame, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANArwkqKAIDK9
The quiver of an Amazonian dame, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA5KNYIiPTgp
With feather'd Thracian arrows well supplied: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANANpDl3KrUQn
A golden belt shall gird his manly side, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANASHG78nscMr
Which with a sparkling diamond shall be tied. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAzLx4zrUj8W
The third this Grecian helmet shall content." 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAf7SQHryixs
He said. To their appointed base they went; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAGiefCPxP9H
With beating hearts th' expected sign receive, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAAPfNGbblWC
And, starting all at once, the barrier leave. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANASVPWpQKjXz
Spread out, as on the winged winds, they flew, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAugdqHAn14q
And seiz'd the distant goal with greedy view. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANATseOari3PT
Shot from the crowd, swift Nisus all o'erpass'd; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA53zUfhQZ1V
Nor storms, nor thunder, equal half his haste. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAgrw8rUFPxY
The next, but tho' the next, yet far disjoin'd, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAXSCqSd4mPS
Came Salius, and Euryalus behind; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANADmWVCyVDxx
Then Helymus, whom young Diores plied, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAeVRxWq61W8
Step after step, and almost side by side, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAPQpCRb1jo0
His shoulders pressing; and, in longer space, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAyCTm4aW7aZ
Had won, or left at least a dubious race. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAqyz2dF8Wz8
Now, spent, the goal they almost reach at last, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANALUvBWLM6qQ
When eager Nisus, hapless in his haste, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA1YBypnsAxm
Slipp'd first, and, slipping, fell upon the plain, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAgFP80cMFAS
Soak'd with the blood of oxen newly slain. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAkhKfOP3Z91
The careless victor had not mark'd his way; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfceyte703Q
But, treading where the treach'rous puddle lay, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAVgtKENIxwb
His heels flew up; and on the grassy floor 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAhOM2eYuFTY
He fell, besmear'd with filth and holy gore. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAmfBkRtAQFL
Not mindless then, Euryalus, of thee, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAXEAhpVVgxy
Nor of the sacred bonds of amity, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA0GuWE6YbM0
He strove th' immediate rival's hope to cross, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA5ObarG50TI
And caught the foot of Salius as he rose. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA05Qu06jogA
So Salius lay extended on the plain; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAkNLVK7sMiJ
Euryalus springs out, the prize to gain, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAAEOXJe7D10
And leaves the crowd: applauding peals attend 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA6n4lppjFlG
The victor to the goal, who vanquish'd by his friend. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAienouzAJae
Next Helymus; and then Diores came, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA0rQl5Usghh
By two misfortunes made the third in fame. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAcsTSAb7T7q
But Salius enters, and, exclaiming loud 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAkUld3OTYIw
For justice, deafens and disturbs the crowd; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA6QetTLhtEJ
Urges his cause may in the court be heard; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAz5LDa24END
And pleads the prize is wrongfully conferr'd. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAJdstlZXOQ0
But favor for Euryalus appears; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAjcQOw7bTre
His blooming beauty, with his tender tears, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAVZj7nsIesh
Had brib'd the judges for the promis'd prize. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAOCmxOd1ml2
Besides, Diores fills the court with cries, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAGBZPPmfADJ
Who vainly reaches at the last reward, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAFzl7D3gYRp
If the first palm on Salius be conferr'd. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAKADr5JgYQy
Then thus the prince: "Let no disputes arise: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAbMnSySQYJg
Where fortune plac'd it, I award the prize. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfeq2umTONT
But fortune's errors give me leave to mend, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAFe7sNLof2z
At least to pity my deserving friend." 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAdkRx894Q2D
He said, and, from among the spoils, he draws 1311Please respect copyright.PENANASnFRsk3jRf
(Pond'rous with shaggy mane and golden paws) 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAnj06jyKBg1
A lion's hide: to Salius this he gives. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAA7frur2iyq
Nisus with envy sees the gift, and grieves. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAkDUS7x9p9l
"If such rewards to vanquish'd men are due." 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAu1SxdQVhIK
He said, "and falling is to rise by you, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAYoUShOZHab
What prize may Nisus from your bounty claim, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAbjb1Z9Qmdp
Who merited the first rewards and fame? 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAeIdVf76au9
In falling, both an equal fortune tried; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAw0f1P7FcfS
Would fortune for my fall so well provide!" 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAyhEjONswnU
With this he pointed to his face, and show'd 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAmqaoc9RnlO
His hand and all his habit smear'd with blood. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAO2apGR9gt3
Th' indulgent father of the people smil'd, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANANnZ774pck2
And caus'd to be produc'd an ample shield, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANASSR4v9U5zj
Of wondrous art, by Didymaon wrought, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAyUx3JBveTk
Long since from Neptune's bars in triumph brought. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAHianMiMG5s
This giv'n to Nisus, he divides the rest, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAAeiuKv7C07
And equal justice in his gifts express'd. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAWdAcle2iRa
The race thus ended, and rewards bestow'd, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA3iGRPgB9A0
Once more the princes bespeaks th' attentive crowd: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAxNI3wbGrN4
"If there he here whose dauntless courage dare 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAYT3wnMZzXW
In gauntlet-fight, with limbs and body bare, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAij82wGvGGn
His opposite sustain in open view, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAjlfZpSmIis
Stand forth the champion, and the games renew. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA1jkGSfccO3
Two prizes I propose, and thus divide: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAaz1dsAxEL2
A bull with gilded horns, and fillets tied, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAhJTmdcQ54y
Shall be the portion of the conqu'ring chief; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAoW1aPKEoo6
A sword and helm shall cheer the loser's grief." 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA1Ep104egUL
Then haughty Dares in the lists appears; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA3s0pZuJEaC
Stalking he strides, his head erected bears: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAKymhhpOlBI
His nervous arms the weighty gauntlet wield, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAZ71VbM3dnA
And loud applauses echo thro' the field. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAIOVAGpEKPg
Dares alone in combat us'd to stand 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAA8aj5n9f5f
The match of mighty Paris, hand to hand; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAjTUynsthiC
The same, at Hector's fun'rals, undertook 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAT3CwWliYDF
Gigantic Butes, of th' Amycian stock, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAcnUKnYMPNy
And, by the stroke of his resistless hand, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAvNcrhK3Ndc
Stretch'd the vast bulk upon the yellow sand. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA9kWhUhCtFo
Such Dares was; and such he strode along, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAVjeSakFGFF
And drew the wonder of the gazing throng. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAlFXv1SsEfL
His brawny back and ample breast he shows, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA8WYX2nnh0o
His lifted arms around his head he throws, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAQuCa3Xjc9t
And deals in whistling air his empty blows. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAkQ12mGUMm1
His match is sought; but, thro' the trembling band, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA9SoXag95vE
Not one dares answer to the proud demand. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAGnnmTpId6s
Presuming of his force, with sparkling eyes 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAEgrSKGt6Jy
Already he devours the promis'd prize. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAg5EqqEUeGQ
He claims the bull with awless insolence, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANApb7GB8PXVU
And having seiz'd his horns, accosts the prince: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA5jvldTRcyt
"If none my matchless valor dares oppose, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfsJDQApCQx
How long shall Dares wait his dastard foes? 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfCpElFPwP8
Permit me, chief, permit without delay, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAG7diBkPEwz
To lead this uncontended gift away." 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAx8zraT8Y7r
The crowd assents, and with redoubled cries 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAs4RacElzo7
For the proud challenger demands the prize. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAcqRFBkJKEy
Acestes, fir'd with just disdain, to see 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAwzL3Cn4A9h
The palm usurp'd without a victory, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA8BSRkdkS9B
Reproach'd Entellus thus, who sate beside, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA2SINg5rBkJ
And heard and saw, unmov'd, the Trojan's pride: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA92VqgyQu5Y
"Once, but in vain, a champion of renown, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAo39ZKV26Cq
So tamely can you bear the ravish'd crown, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAlMf4gnEWhA
A prize in triumph borne before your sight, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAJgkO0hGa1q
And shun, for fear, the danger of the fight? 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAxSGA6dGh2V
Where is our Eryx now, the boasted name, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAO45fZrVw3y
The god who taught your thund'ring arm the game? 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAeEMqZGPxlA
Where now your baffled honor? Where the spoil 1311Please respect copyright.PENANATxxMnBNdTq
That fill'd your house, and fame that fill'd our isle?" 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAAtCdk2TdlP
Entellus, thus: "My soul is still the same, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAVUMEkxpzAH
Unmov'd with fear, and mov'd with martial fame; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA2ffibxj29s
But my chill blood is curdled in my veins, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA84CrCkTcw4
And scarce the shadow of a man remains. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAxdA6HGPtgf
O could I turn to that fair prime again, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAPAyytAPTY9
That prime of which this boaster is so vain, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAyHGqBSXgb9
The brave, who this decrepid age defies, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA8Q9VsRqSh4
Should feel my force, without the promis'd prize." 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAksFUoZNlEX
He said; and, rising at the word, he threw 1311Please respect copyright.PENANATagyJPhL7o
Two pond'rous gauntlets down in open view; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANArqQ1MMZsYh
Gauntlets which Eryx wont in fight to wield, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAuJrsYkPbDV
And sheathe his hands with in the listed field. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA0CtkUJSu2P
With fear and wonder seiz'd, the crowd beholds 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAP8SNuPZwX8
The gloves of death, with sev'n distinguish'd folds 1311Please respect copyright.PENANALnMu7ZL078
Of tough bull hides; the space within is spread 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfzVI66R5Do
With iron, or with loads of heavy lead: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAE2cPHAdcRm
Dares himself was daunted at the sight, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAZgp9SVzeAC
Renounc'd his challenge, and refus'd to fight. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfK5TXcB7FD
Astonish'd at their weight, the hero stands, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAeVZMlljNSd
And pois'd the pond'rous engines in his hands. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAYqmNTzvIdP
"What had your wonder," said Entellus, "been, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAJw4sXcTVJC
Had you the gauntlets of Alcides seen, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANArv1TKZRk9Z
Or view'd the stern debate on this unhappy green! 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAewSXO8DM0U
These which I bear your brother Eryx bore, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAKGZhUbJWdW
Still mark'd with batter'd brains and mingled gore. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAz3CUyLQvqS
With these he long sustain'd th' Herculean arm; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAUFxAHcKfhm
And these I wielded while my blood was warm, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA5foe4wtTfK
This languish'd frame while better spirits fed, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAItqCN8ADKq
Ere age unstrung my nerves, or time o'ersnow'd my head. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAkOAReE3wyB
But if the challenger these arms refuse, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAAV4xsziYc0
And cannot wield their weight, or dare not use; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA1Nte2m3Slp
If great Aeneas and Acestes join 1311Please respect copyright.PENANANGMnBWD60j
In his request, these gauntlets I resign; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANARTy5HzeAiu
Let us with equal arms perform the fight, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAA5e2VS9nap
And let him leave to fear, since I resign my right." 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAKTBkUZDNTa
This said, Entellus for the strife prepares; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAhxqEls1QIO
Stripp'd of his quilted coat, his body bares; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAwBd1pgl9V4
Compos'd of mighty bones and brawn he stands, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAF5bAzOx1gv
A goodly tow'ring object on the sands. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAMvTHZT3Qoe
Then just Aeneas equal arms supplied, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAGhFg0CVVwi
Which round their shoulders to their wrists they tied. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfBVYAAo7hk
Both on the tiptoe stand, at full extent, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAtup5IA5YMD
Their arms aloft, their bodies inly bent; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAIg4oDvPuWl
Their heads from aiming blows they bear afar; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAxpumSUftQM
With clashing gauntlets then provoke the war. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANALo7i7mXdXg
One on his youth and pliant limbs relies; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAGJCAIN2aJL
One on his sinews and his giant size. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANApK13XU330k
The last is stiff with age, his motion slow; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAqTMY9Qpbam
He heaves for breath, he staggers to and fro, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAOjAIVof8Lr
And clouds of issuing smoke his nostrils loudly blow. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAEZcX1NId8p
Yet equal in success, they ward, they strike; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAkUbN4U4TgP
Their ways are diff'rent, but their art alike. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA2F4WOK3mIO
Before, behind, the blows are dealt; around 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA60n93gWgC3
Their hollow sides the rattling thumps resound. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAxNUhNgjtTD
A storm of strokes, well meant, with fury flies, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAjf5iXml4IN
And errs about their temples, ears, and eyes. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAFFKWpl9pae
Nor always errs; for oft the gauntlet draws 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA5viJtqrWS5
A sweeping stroke along the crackling jaws. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAhEOweoKnHJ
Heavy with age, Entellus stands his ground, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAahvyyikteK
But with his warping body wards the wound. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANADgp0EbLZpf
His hand and watchful eye keep even pace; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANACXfJBMitQz
While Dares traverses and shifts his place, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAoHnHdS1G6L
And, like a captain who beleaguers round 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAiON6WnPivF
Some strong-built castle on a rising ground, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAhFQrtnP54l
Views all th' approaches with observing eyes: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAAu4QO3MwwI
This and that other part in vain he tries, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA3J2ajZUJeF
And more on industry than force relies. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA5fR7s7Pbw2
With hands on high, Entellus threats the foe; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANALKswvbOSkS
But Dares watch'd the motion from below, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAq9gdJi54lf
And slipp'd aside, and shunn'd the long descending blow. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANANQfddQDinR
Entellus wastes his forces on the wind, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA1Y9zLN8mTw
And, thus deluded of the stroke design'd, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAVdjARdj13D
Headlong and heavy fell; his ample breast 1311Please respect copyright.PENANApq9uvYc7zt
And weighty limbs his ancient mother press'd. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANARxjfuZM7Ba
So falls a hollow pine, that long had stood 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA9oiaKS4BAE
On Ida's height, or Erymanthus' wood, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAq7CV7zAT17
Torn from the roots. The diff'ring nations rise, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAdz4QgUYsvO
And shouts and mingled murmurs rend the skies, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAQWC0gydqrr
Acestus runs with eager haste, to raise 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAQsx0EHfYLi
The fall'n companion of his youthful days. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAHQd4NyQEum
Dauntless he rose, and to the fight return'd; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA0F2HnW0GBr
With shame his glowing cheeks, his eyes with fury burn'd. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAYIhBS0jnw0
Disdain and conscious virtue fir'd his breast, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAq9p4KEtjb9
And with redoubled force his foe he press'd. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAltDPz8ONGq
He lays on load with either hand, amain, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA9aO4K4YoHV
And headlong drives the Trojan o'er the plain; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA27z5gpStOV
Nor stops, nor stays; nor rest nor breath allows; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAUVppLXnn4k
But storms of strokes descend about his brows, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAZza29MR0OF
A rattling tempest, and a hail of blows. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA9CDL0zT74J
But now the prince, who saw the wild increase 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA7G0dPZt1n1
Of wounds, commands the combatants to cease, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAQtwza28QEn
And bounds Entellus' wrath, and bids the peace. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAdVgaFpPuqz
First to the Trojan, spent with toil, he came, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAu1kzljsTOk
And sooth'd his sorrow for the suffer'd shame. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAnaefeTYbkH
"What fury seiz'd my friend? The gods," said he, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA0fQzAGtOoG
"To him propitious, and averse to thee, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAOrcNTFzlOQ
Have giv'n his arm superior force to thine. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAqmmgsDCfNS
'T is madness to contend with strength divine." 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAckJePazrew
The gauntlet fight thus ended, from the shore 1311Please respect copyright.PENANATsMIhEjvZO
His faithful friends unhappy Dares bore: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAf2OG89uIit
His mouth and nostrils pour'd a purple flood, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAZxTFqZLKYG
And pounded teeth came rushing with his blood. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAo3ZMGIqrEH
Faintly he stagger'd thro' the hissing throng, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAa0aR3ZBeAd
And hung his head, and trail'd his legs along. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAZKKm4006Qs
The sword and casque are carried by his train; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA6CX6294Xff
But with his foe the palm and ox remain. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAz5biFDWE5d
The champion, then, before Aeneas came, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANADvzo3dGqkm
Proud of his prize, but prouder of his fame: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAvn9I48jr6F
"O goddess-born, and you, Dardanian host, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA0VQ5dwGHHh
Mark with attention, and forgive my boast; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAM4sPw6xwII
Learn what I was, by what remains; and know 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAOuZON1yUCa
From what impending fate you sav'd my foe." 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfHdrRjDPTv
Sternly he spoke, and then confronts the bull; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA8QuavvO9yp
And, on his ample forehead aiming full, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfIC2I3ANGE
The deadly stroke, descending, pierc'd the skull. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAb97dMLXv1A
Down drops the beast, nor needs a second wound, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANACLc7tRNaBL
But sprawls in pangs of death, and spurns the ground. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA6DDFg8Y7y0
Then, thus: "In Dares' stead I offer this. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAxaaWI8dHt9
Eryx, accept a nobler sacrifice; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAeRxIf7EAQH
Take the last gift my wither'd arms can yield: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAHwv4g0GEok
Thy gauntlets I resign, and here renounce the field." 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAopUOQmRBzd
This done, Aeneas orders, for the close, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAocSDagpNsY
The strife of archers with contending bows. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAf288IPopLP
The mast Sergesthus' shatter'd galley bore 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAtNywq88tYd
With his own hands he raises on the shore. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAVpsGi7PpJu
A flutt'ring dove upon the top they tie, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANABkFETsc4M9
The living mark at which their arrows fly. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAZ1vBm5FN8x
The rival archers in a line advance, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANASmPRUGrYFC
Their turn of shooting to receive from chance. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAuKHgvk7B7a
A helmet holds their names; the lots are drawn: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAiLRp0OqYUm
On the first scroll was read Hippocoon. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAExSnLTNRvd
The people shout. Upon the next was found 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAO3NOKs8Ssn
Young Mnestheus, late with naval honors crown'd. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANASKrEzG7bTU
The third contain'd Eurytion's noble name, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANARBaQYFGBas
Thy brother, Pandarus, and next in fame, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAQezBpDJuuN
Whom Pallas urg'd the treaty to confound, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAsIAsP3wP5k
And send among the Greeks a feather'd wound. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAqIFegDPVhN
Acestes in the bottom last remain'd, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAJKUE1kY4YX
Whom not his age from youthful sports restrain'd. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAuvwaLRSJiC
Soon all with vigor bend their trusty bows, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAnqgmCW1jvT
And from the quiver each his arrow chose. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAr3rdLqjlXr
Hippocoon's was the first: with forceful sway 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAg8kGAfeJf7
It flew, and, whizzing, cut the liquid way. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAHkIfv97y0Z
Fix'd in the mast the feather'd weapon stands: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAOWzkz7GkIH
The fearful pigeon flutters in her bands, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA7HScuwFStQ
And the tree trembled, and the shouting cries 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAiFkKa0MBsu
Of the pleas'd people rend the vaulted skies. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAbHrVVSJd7b
Then Mnestheus to the head his arrow drove, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAiyrD7MdyiZ
With lifted eyes, and took his aim above, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAMDfdfVapaf
But made a glancing shot, and missed the dove; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAsuQW2gm4hF
Yet miss'd so narrow, that he cut the cord 1311Please respect copyright.PENANACTBagwa3ge
Which fasten'd by the foot the flitting bird. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAMcpBe7XAtv
The captive thus releas'd, away she flies, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAP9mKOHEw18
And beats with clapping wings the yielding skies. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAlOu6V0h5XY
His bow already bent, Eurytion stood; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAnrF64jpdo6
And, having first invok'd his brother god, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfArPeirl40
His winged shaft with eager haste he sped. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAa2BmAKPBgO
The fatal message reach'd her as she fled: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAhGlwi6Go4T
She leaves her life aloft; she strikes the ground, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAhZzWUmoReC
And renders back the weapon in the wound. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAyk4xyAsAAf
Acestes, grudging at his lot, remains, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAMeWqFwNbFf
Without a prize to gratify his pains. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAOQs3EebPyR
Yet, shooting upward, sends his shaft, to show 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfcTDw2fqHc
An archer's art, and boast his twanging bow. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA7TK9Oqc5ku
The feather'd arrow gave a dire portent, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANACriGwYMlWU
And latter augurs judge from this event. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANApbuhJgZho2
Chaf'd by the speed, it fir'd; and, as it flew, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANALtQeukP1sM
A trail of following flames ascending drew: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAwdVYlTPcNp
Kindling they mount, and mark the shiny way; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAN6VqyrNn9r
Across the skies as falling meteors play, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAB23WtzHyEL
And vanish into wind, or in a blaze decay. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAZ9v1s0mAZj
The Trojans and Sicilians wildly stare, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAQkOfuWn8Wm
And, trembling, turn their wonder into pray'r. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAyHM1xbKTkJ
The Dardan prince put on a smiling face, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAUXMByRXmPs
And strain'd Acestes with a close embrace; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA2PnUujAfma
Then, hon'ring him with gifts above the rest, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANADjxOm4bdjc
Turn'd the bad omen, nor his fears confess'd. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA8td2qZvdt6
"The gods," said he, "this miracle have wrought, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAyFbc43YeGT
And order'd you the prize without the lot. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA5PDUvfUo3e
Accept this goblet, rough with figur'd gold, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAF9B42w3tKi
Which Thracian Cisseus gave my sire of old: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA8vxPfLRhbb
This pledge of ancient amity receive, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAyBapK8iIj1
Which to my second sire I justly give." 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAEAqE6mxjeG
He said, and, with the trumpets' cheerful sound, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAuCOF1573nh
Proclaim'd him victor, and with laurel-crown'd. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA0SrY7hr5vT
Nor good Eurytion envied him the prize, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAt0Pvidrsc2
Tho' he transfix'd the pigeon in the skies. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAMVXHg6a5tQ
Who cut the line, with second gifts was grac'd; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANADUCWzdZXS3
The third was his whose arrow pierc'd the mast. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAumVZjGfHf5
The chief, before the games were wholly done, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAf75dgtQOEX
Call'd Periphantes, tutor to his son, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAuWuTd2vih1
And whisper'd thus: "With speed Ascanius find; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAUYdFUxaxEy
And, if his childish troop be ready join'd, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANABsMrb7HU3s
On horseback let him grace his grandsire's day, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANACE9dloI48W
And lead his equals arm'd in just array." 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA35m08OzY0b
He said; and, calling out, the cirque he clears. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAI4k6vK7uHp
The crowd withdrawn, an open plain appears. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAHilLiQg9rg
And now the noble youths, of form divine, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAmFvXkAFO9C
Advance before their fathers, in a line; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAkVmx53CfN0
The riders grace the steeds; the steeds with glory shine. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA7aLMZDMYo9
Thus marching on in military pride, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAQPfukaB8IO
Shouts of applause resound from side to side. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAxrSBo5fk1n
Their casques adorn'd with laurel wreaths they wear, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAJqUH2he8Xn
Each brandishing aloft a cornel spear. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAUKPOC2hSkm
Some at their backs their gilded quivers bore; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAPp7G8wm46k
Their chains of burnish'd gold hung down before. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAuu7WLn9KVd
Three graceful troops they form'd upon the green; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAm37twDN4vR
Three graceful leaders at their head were seen; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA2xEnskmu31
Twelve follow'd ev'ry chief, and left a space between. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANArZw71ewgui
The first young Priam led; a lovely boy, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAJg1SpnO805
Whose grandsire was th' unhappy king of Troy; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANANUCZDRwuRn
His race in after times was known to fame, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAjirnrZIbJT
New honors adding to the Latian name; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAyHSZKVLtaS
And well the royal boy his Thracian steed became. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA91clXN0i64
White were the fetlocks of his feet before, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANASI57dW14hM
And on his front a snowy star he bore. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAMCtgStwD46
Then beauteous Atys, with Iulus bred, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANADNj0MprqvY
Of equal age, the second squadron led. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAylguwqivsx
The last in order, but the first in place, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAhQ4XoHhy2I
First in the lovely features of his face, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAgGPJ7uXuD3
Rode fair Ascanius on a fiery steed, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAbGqFGV3HSl
Queen Dido's gift, and of the Tyrian breed. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAh7FcM6DRzh
Sure coursers for the rest the king ordains, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAStY6fYttIA
With golden bits adorn'd, and purple reins. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA3rjnbdehjg
The pleas'd spectators peals of shouts renew, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA7shqCTpEcv
And all the parents in the children view; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAPGU1Un54T2
Their make, their motions, and their sprightly grace, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA8t3BlYkfgb
And hopes and fears alternate in their face. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAxEx4DttR70
Th' unfledg'd commanders and their martial train 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAu90MSAPEmS
First make the circuit of the sandy plain 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAAZx2BGiBu3
Around their sires, and, at th' appointed sign, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANATYlmx26Ssa
Drawn up in beauteous order, form a line. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANACwE7Fntua5
The second signal sounds, the troop divides 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAA8LGvw0wOd
In three distinguish'd parts, with three distinguish'd guides 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAArAAtzsKqX
Again they close, and once again disjoin; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAu9NVYbn7kA
In troop to troop oppos'd, and line to line. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAQIT4ImgxUX
They meet; they wheel; they throw their darts afar 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA0PRy14AaPh
With harmless rage and well-dissembled war. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAo0OPzHGeOV
Then in a round the mingled bodies run: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAodlgWQ8zqK
Flying they follow, and pursuing shun; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAuG9HFhL3ao
Broken, they break; and, rallying, they renew 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAtaHx7CGWpL
In other forms the military shew. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAVucDMEupEA
At last, in order, undiscern'd they join, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAoxktMCOcNL
And march together in a friendly line. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAOdfol8S7EI
And, as the Cretan labyrinth of old, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAIsTJpdVP4Z
With wand'ring ways and many a winding fold, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAKekIFYZ4NW
Involv'd the weary feet, without redress, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAPVrpVO98g6
In a round error, which denied recess; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAR3PuOw9osA
So fought the Trojan boys in warlike play, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAkvAiPGPb0P
Turn'd and return'd, and still a diff'rent way. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANABurBZluykS
Thus dolphins in the deep each other chase 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAt93CRidOqi
In circles, when they swim around the wat'ry race. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAbAnxVXfVot
This game, these carousels, Ascanius taught; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANABkGcQqoyme
And, building Alba, to the Latins brought; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA40WRDEY5JV
Shew'd what he learn'd: the Latin sires impart 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAa77wWXw2Lh
To their succeeding sons the graceful art; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAzoBS0idFa4
From these imperial Rome receiv'd the game, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANARXDpQlUXEF
Which Troy, the youths the Trojan troop, they name. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAGT76ibmVSG
Thus far the sacred sports they celebrate: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA0rFXgVkkg5
But Fortune soon resum'd her ancient hate; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAifuK8e3jWo
For, while they pay the dead his annual dues, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA7SjJQouaM6
Those envied rites Saturnian Juno views; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAUU7aLYw6Vv
And sends the goddess of the various bow, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAjMACTjikpG
To try new methods of revenge below; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAXuKhfos5FC
Supplies the winds to wing her airy way, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANANj3QHPqYoC
Where in the port secure the navy lay. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA5HNHYhFnOZ
Swiftly fair Iris down her arch descends, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAM6SCUIAQXB
And, undiscern'd, her fatal voyage ends. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAUcXEBSgogo
She saw the gath'ring crowd; and, gliding thence, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA925RtkDRIC
The desart shore, and fleet without defense. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA5I8wmGgHT1
The Trojan matrons, on the sands alone, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAFCUvMvZqyL
With sighs and tears Anchises' death bemoan; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAXm6yQvB3mG
Then, turning to the sea their weeping eyes, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAqOx6XlFeWT
Their pity to themselves renews their cries. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAi8XAO9NNXs
"Alas!" said one, "what oceans yet remain 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA0s7guBuRck
For us to sail! what labors to sustain!" 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAIoSf14aTnF
All take the word, and, with a gen'ral groan, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAcgWzyesBTN
Implore the gods for peace, and places of their own. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA0BgZyOdssz
The goddess, great in mischief, views their pains, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAHTd5v6d9q4
And in a woman's form her heav'nly limbs restrains. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANArb0jzX5ffn
In face and shape old Beroe she became, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAYQqI5UaRJi
Doryclus' wife, a venerable dame, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA2q9kTNTaQn
Once blest with riches, and a mother's name. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAYsX3gzd7oE
Thus chang'd, amidst the crying crowd she ran, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAoMrBOWjOOd
Mix'd with the matrons, and these words began: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAS4xYx9dpYD
"O wretched we, whom not the Grecian pow'r, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANALZ7V7vlv8i
Nor flames, destroy'd, in Troy's unhappy hour! 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA7jQ6OecD92
O wretched we, reserv'd by cruel fate, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA2eckoU7u0w
Beyond the ruins of the sinking state! 1311Please respect copyright.PENANApguYjfFTJr
Now sev'n revolving years are wholly run, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA4Vf7v4XNG9
Since this improsp'rous voyage we begun; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA3gLQ3h6Lmc
Since, toss'd from shores to shores, from lands to lands, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAinzITPcuKH
Inhospitable rocks and barren sands, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAbztvaTRC9n
Wand'ring in exile thro' the stormy sea, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANADLywZBJnty
We search in vain for flying Italy. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAQhgr84Od2C
Now cast by fortune on this kindred land, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAv6QCXePEGa
What should our rest and rising walls withstand, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAblyxIs6irb
Or hinder here to fix our banish'd band? 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAFPh9Zb64KQ
O country lost, and gods redeem'd in vain, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAZ3LSRiVZzY
If still in endless exile we remain! 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAUsZffU1HZx
Shall we no more the Trojan walls renew, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAejbapMHbT2
Or streams of some dissembled Simois view! 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAkffEXB7qfo
Haste, join with me, th' unhappy fleet consume! 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAoZrLnuGJ5S
Cassandra bids; and I declare her doom. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANASci8SjvIbX
In sleep I saw her; she supplied my hands 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAeMvfGT49X0
(For this I more than dreamt) with flaming brands: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANADKquLEkNsj
'With these,' said she, 'these wand'ring ships destroy: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA0yDIhHO4BM
These are your fatal seats, and this your Troy.' 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAtbO9ddgMxs
Time calls you now; the precious hour employ: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAYPUzYu2RD8
Slack not the good presage, while Heav'n inspires 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAeovnCECOLm
Our minds to dare, and gives the ready fires. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAXWcG8802OV
See! Neptune's altars minister their brands: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAK6dmFofw65
The god is pleas'd; the god supplies our hands." 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAshqWixh25o
Then from the pile a flaming fire she drew, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAcAJrL6U2z8
And, toss'd in air, amidst the galleys threw. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA0feTnMCUvr
Wrapp'd in amaze, the matrons wildly stare: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA9KZFvC8xqY
Then Pyrgo, reverenc'd for her hoary hair, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANArkqtsEKKB1
Pyrgo, the nurse of Priam's num'rous race: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAFTvSCF8ZqR
"No Beroe this, tho' she belies her face! 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAxN9A8kVtxj
What terrors from her frowning front arise! 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAMM2Ti0ZLZ9
Behold a goddess in her ardent eyes! 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAbPpDIHjoy8
What rays around her heav'nly face are seen! 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA6qPoHawtu0
Mark her majestic voice, and more than mortal mien! 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAsIFscJUaQ5
Beroe but now I left, whom, pin'd with pain, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAKOHlU6ikgS
Her age and anguish from these rites detain," 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfRwQ7uCzyN
She said. The matrons, seiz'd with new amaze, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAzr03c9k1sV
Roll their malignant eyes, and on the navy gaze. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAwAs1rKDW3c
They fear, and hope, and neither part obey: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA6Wf2koTJof
They hope the fated land, but fear the fatal way. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAMkrfSHWvME
The goddess, having done her task below, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAzXEWmgwWWu
Mounts up on equal wings, and bends her painted bow. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfk2EOw8FU5
Struck with the sight, and seiz'd with rage divine, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANACHMnKOtEkp
The matrons prosecute their mad design: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAeFU8KAgy9O
They shriek aloud; they snatch, with impious hands, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAnQ1prMs15I
The food of altars; fires and flaming brands. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANANMSwoDlrbD
Green boughs and saplings, mingled in their haste, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAGt8VEOPHif
And smoking torches, on the ships they cast. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAdKK514PCGa
The flame, unstopp'd at first, more fury gains, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA3AKu0ioSGS
And Vulcan rides at large with loosen'd reins: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAoXFDBI0ils
Triumphant to the painted sterns he soars, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANArFqavzfSFj
And seizes, in this way, the banks and crackling oars. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAc67UehufiR
Eumelus was the first the news to bear, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA5v1BDStaai
While yet they crowd the rural theater. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANArQLwAb0KAO
Then, what they hear, is witness'd by their eyes: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAP2Fz8qJnlV
A storm of sparkles and of flames arise. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAPcpudzNtHz
Ascanius took th' alarm, while yet he led 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAWST4COYpvl
His early warriors on his prancing steed, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA51XtHhbOY7
And, spurring on, his equals soon o'erpass'd; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA4lL1BMyKBd
Nor could his frighted friends reclaim his haste. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAtlpy1ej9CT
Soon as the royal youth appear'd in view, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAs9fdY7pywa
He sent his voice before him as he flew: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAd9xG70VKSu
"What madness moves you, matrons, to destroy 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAFEEaEg36Gm
The last remainders of unhappy Troy! 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAWTA8fyIFav
Not hostile fleets, but your own hopes, you burn, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA5ubro4uEAv
And on your friends your fatal fury turn. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAurS0osBAJx
Behold your own Ascanius!" While he said, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAixlsND2hZh
He drew his glitt'ring helmet from his head, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAN5eQZ5kpTV
In which the youths to sportful arms he led. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA7zE65UJJIA
By this, Aeneas and his train appear; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA0mRg3HHzAq
And now the women, seiz'd with shame and fear, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANABMSloM4Fx7
Dispers'd, to woods and caverns take their flight, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAEsZ1BTuxwF
Abhor their actions, and avoid the light; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAIRVIRXQ55i
Their friends acknowledge, and their error find, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA8dBKO0Ad6N
And shake the goddess from their alter'd mind. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA69xVv3lyFJ
Not so the raging fires their fury cease, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAxtA1tJBjd2
But, lurking in the seams, with seeming peace, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANApRpTRPmLhx
Work on their way amid the smold'ring tow, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAMoP1VUVQJi
Sure in destruction, but in motion slow. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAL67OSJZ90k
The silent plague thro' the green timber eats, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAJA7So8RmDW
And vomits out a tardy flame by fits. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAtxtQKFrNxg
Down to the keels, and upward to the sails, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA7DYmxnO6fv
The fire descends, or mounts, but still prevails; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAhBOGIlDoSV
Nor buckets pour'd, nor strength of human hand, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANABOekUVhMhQ
Can the victorious element withstand. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAXRrwg8onZI
The pious hero rends his robe, and throws 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfWzP67fHyJ
To heav'n his hands, and with his hands his vows. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAOq2K4HNoqI
"O Jove," he cried, "if pray'rs can yet have place; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAp6uzsjDb4M
If thou abhorr'st not all the Dardan race; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAsmzOTWL03t
If any spark of pity still remain; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAJt2zZVIgwQ
If gods are gods, and not invok'd in vain; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAntDw0IAJJ1
Yet spare the relics of the Trojan train! 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAh7H8y39LDL
Yet from the flames our burning vessels free, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAjmEJc7hZ5R
Or let thy fury fall alone on me! 1311Please respect copyright.PENANACqnbHdAjLo
At this devoted head thy thunder throw, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAdI2bkDbR1v
And send the willing sacrifice below!" 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAd2coXG1Zlg
Scarce had he said, when southern storms arise: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAPJs10lgmZT
From pole to pole the forky lightning flies; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA9XJlj0pQxR
Loud rattling shakes the mountains and the plain; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAEN8DbxaOII
Heav'n bellies downward, and descends in rain. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA9pBONXeGo4
Whole sheets of water from the clouds are sent, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANASjg8wjaSNK
Which, hissing thro' the planks, the flames prevent, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANARGWpiaKNw7
And stop the fiery pest. Four ships alone 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAIBP1H9mayJ
Burn to the waist, and for the fleet atone. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAVXTOH7HtgI
But doubtful thoughts the hero's heart divide; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAQeqcI5gIjP
If he should still in Sicily reside, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAXXYEGQNX5V
Forgetful of his fates, or tempt the main, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAB8FxBy55JC
In hope the promis'd Italy to gain. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA8APZQmqNzy
Then Nautes, old and wise, to whom alone 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAt4EHTEQ0KX
The will of Heav'n by Pallas was foreshown; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANALvxpE2FR3C
Vers'd in portents, experienc'd, and inspir'd 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAjKNA9uWXas
To tell events, and what the fates requir'd; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAvM3s7OUYs1
Thus while he stood, to neither part inclin'd, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAr6b6PQ9OPN
With cheerful words reliev'd his lab'ring mind: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAMOsN15ircL
"O goddess-born, resign'd in ev'ry state, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAsBZ7Svi8m9
With patience bear, with prudence push your fate. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANArTwFYr7kIM
By suff'ring well, our Fortune we subdue; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANADWXrUergu3
Fly when she frowns, and, when she calls, pursue. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANApRRdwkLapL
Your friend Acestes is of Trojan kind; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA14X3up940T
To him disclose the secrets of your mind: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAcrGRKi97Ba
Trust in his hands your old and useless train; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAYTuzbfppPM
Too num'rous for the ships which yet remain: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAszqa8lhUk6
The feeble, old, indulgent of their ease, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAx844rCyzzm
The dames who dread the dangers of the seas, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAEmlYrdkIE7
With all the dastard crew, who dare not stand 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA07YQkHZJGt
The shock of battle with your foes by land. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAnAexq4cboy
Here you may build a common town for all, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAzlPB2qSjTc
And, from Acestes' name, Acesta call." 1311Please respect copyright.PENANACcEGpaUgzi
The reasons, with his friend's experience join'd, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAGHGPAB479I
Encourag'd much, but more disturb'd his mind. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA7fNQ9fDkrf
'T was dead of night; when to his slumb'ring eyes 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAmP55omJHbX
His father's shade descended from the skies, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA2iSGK7ul5l
And thus he spoke: "O more than vital breath, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAmjkIBcOizI
Lov'd while I liv'd, and dear ev'n after death; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA1UG5q7ZY48
O son, in various toils and troubles toss'd, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA8u2N1BuMKO
The King of Heav'n employs my careful ghost 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAR905HYQVFO
On his commands: the god, who sav'd from fire 1311Please respect copyright.PENANACEIlUTf0ZD
Your flaming fleet, and heard your just desire. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA1Pmh2fxj7W
The wholesome counsel of your friend receive, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA2Lqi2MysfO
And here the coward train and woman leave: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAKcWGhC1pH6
The chosen youth, and those who nobly dare, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA9c6d1oYWJh
Transport, to tempt the dangers of the war. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAFCxq8VcurX
The stern Italians will their courage try; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANARarxe5qf07
Rough are their manners, and their minds are high. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAGQDps2kQlJ
But first to Pluto's palace you shall go, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAHSrur53Evv
And seek my shade among the blest below: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANASZrUZCB5bS
For not with impious ghosts my soul remains, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAlEGGa2wdkb
Nor suffers with the damn'd perpetual pains, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAkU9mYiqRQ0
But breathes the living air of soft Elysian plains. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAnhMUmuKw0V
The chaste Sibylla shall your steps convey, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfXkLnzawl6
And blood of offer'd victims free the way. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAaVFKchfswI
There shall you know what realms the gods assign, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAG8cJMFF2Eb
And learn the fates and fortunes of your line. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAJyKwNRwsWt
But now, farewell! I vanish with the night, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA820L54eFoQ
And feel the blast of heav'n's approaching light." 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAwHZfN0puFG
He said, and mix'd with shades, and took his airy flight. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANArwwtk30hb5
"Whither so fast?" the filial duty cried; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAdwak0udsBw
"And why, ah why, the wish'd embrace denied?" 1311Please respect copyright.PENANANFKrnMesQA
He said, and rose; as holy zeal inspires, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAlOq8a8i6gs
He rakes hot embers, and renews the fires; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAKLPWOkRGxE
His country gods and Vesta then adores 1311Please respect copyright.PENANASvq1IPbIce
With cakes and incense, and their aid implores. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA8ouZWtNp6o
Next, for his friends and royal host he sent, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAGKNIFKqzHU
Reveal'd his vision, and the gods' intent, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAB5Zbvg5H3g
With his own purpose. All, without delay, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAywYdUyrK3M
The will of Jove, and his desires obey. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAo49o91m6ee
They list with women each degenerate name, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA0jXohE28W9
Who dares not hazard life for future fame. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAeMXSNf3l4s
These they cashier: the brave remaining few, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANASHtvaJ9Fxs
Oars, banks, and cables, half consum'd, renew. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfUkBysGOEY
The prince designs a city with the plow; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAN5jnp6RBuB
The lots their sev'ral tenements allow. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAskTmpQJT1Y
This part is nam'd from Ilium, that from Troy, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAlAm8zyOB3P
And the new king ascends the throne with joy; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAtIHvXlAsA8
A chosen senate from the people draws; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAJzLIVrVstG
Appoints the judges, and ordains the laws. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAaOiUkuKVNU
Then, on the top of Eryx, they begin 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA1ng6RJ6VSO
A rising temple to the Paphian queen. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAjBycX3I8km
Anchises, last, is honor'd as a god; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAgD2JiPh5hP
A priest is added, annual gifts bestow'd, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANASTiqJOf1Ua
And groves are planted round his blest abode. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA2IoISheF0I
Nine days they pass in feasts, their temples crown'd; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAn9Db7xTOMZ
And fumes of incense in the fanes abound. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAXmrCLFBGSM
Then from the south arose a gentle breeze 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA3XdqwxcUvQ
That curl'd the smoothness of the glassy seas; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANApd4ke23GN6
The rising winds a ruffling gale afford, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAHj76QbP4AN
And call the merry mariners aboard. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAnfCZ7JFdFo
Now loud laments along the shores resound, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANASIqY85WIOw
Of parting friends in close embraces bound. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAcPb5Hyp4ZW
The trembling women, the degenerate train, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAnZZwuwUkFL
Who shunn'd the frightful dangers of the main, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAs9LtgZCR8I
Ev'n those desire to sail, and take their share 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAu06rJ7VZia
Of the rough passage and the promis'd war: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAYlMOAe44K4
Whom good Aeneas cheers, and recommends 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAsM5MzMFH86
To their new master's care his fearful friends. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAMcI37Grfqf
On Eryx's altars three fat calves he lays; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAWZppWCAxkJ
A lamb new-fallen to the stormy seas; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAG6yTZGXXxm
Then slips his haulsers, and his anchors weighs. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAMYPDm4Hib2
High on the deck the godlike hero stands, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAA7ndfAPunv
With olive crown'd, a charger in his hands; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAFGo99byeJs
Then cast the reeking entrails in the brine, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAn6IGWnrui3
And pour'd the sacrifice of purple wine. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAM5L7xvMDvf
Fresh gales arise; with equal strokes they vie, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAZ69FWnXAoi
And brush the buxom seas, and o'er the billows fly. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAi0lbqwhGfF
Meantime the mother goddess, full of fears, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfXtlzcyP6d
To Neptune thus address'd, with tender tears: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAdQqvsiutfd
"The pride of Jove's imperious queen, the rage, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAZbnTdilcMX
The malice which no suff'rings can assuage, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAhGgp9pIT9o
Compel me to these pray'rs; since neither fate, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA996DMq9tTt
Nor time, nor pity, can remove her hate: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAmprUW2tKqL
Ev'n Jove is thwarted by his haughty wife; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAm2D8z7CFsR
Still vanquish'd, yet she still renews the strife. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAd0YymSzvSC
As if 't were little to consume the town 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAeudtk6nrvF
Which aw'd the world, and wore th' imperial crown, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA4wQxoa25qD
She prosecutes the ghost of Troy with pains, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA8ZLo0jhMc3
And gnaws, ev'n to the bones, the last remains. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAdW9JraIQ7W
Let her the causes of her hatred tell; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANARPqwdXeShn
But you can witness its effects too well. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAx8T5Z3cblM
You saw the storm she rais'd on Libyan floods, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAmrFJtTFum5
That mix'd the mounting billows with the clouds; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAuJ6NCIEafM
When, bribing Aeolus, she shook the main, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA9WEnkBT1tc
And mov'd rebellion in your wat'ry reign. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfhThUMKiB6
With fury she possess'd the Dardan dames, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAt9t2oH0cl9
To burn their fleet with execrable flames, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA8iLJNb7WtI
And forc'd Aeneas, when his ships were lost, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAayyrlecdBX
To leave his foll'wers on a foreign coast. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAqks4UqdGdC
For what remains, your godhead I implore, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAHx0Kv1600C
And trust my son to your protecting pow'r. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAve5Kt2tzJl
If neither Jove's nor Fate's decree withstand, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAFsQjXIMW0N
Secure his passage to the Latian land." 1311Please respect copyright.PENANABmcr7qjMHm
Then thus the mighty Ruler of the Main: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAvlIAzRis2g
"What may not Venus hope from Neptune's reign? 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAK8SZHlQMDS
My kingdom claims your birth; my late defense 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAwMTuu9jvox
Of your indanger'd fleet may claim your confidence. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAXRNNohhgpc
Nor less by land than sea my deeds declare 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAGc2H4CZ6ir
How much your lov'd Aeneas is my care. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAHjbtN7zjXU
Thee, Xanthus, and thee, Simois, I attest. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfIAKQF80Xh
Your Trojan troops when proud Achilles press'd, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAr0nz8BvXzn
And drove before him headlong on the plain, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAZdlbnWOIl8
And dash'd against the walls the trembling train; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANACznijWfmgX
When floods were fill'd with bodies of the slain; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAtkFR4Gr1IX
When crimson Xanthus, doubtful of his way, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA0hjslJBcwH
Stood up on ridges to behold the sea; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAsrz6vwzsyE
(New heaps came tumbling in, and chok'd his way;) 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA6zsLC22qbb
When your Aeneas fought, but fought with odds 1311Please respect copyright.PENANACaWNILKHy9
Of force unequal, and unequal gods; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA20Yg0mDw6v
I spread a cloud before the victor's sight, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAjFVPxFZdxe
Sustain'd the vanquish'd, and secur'd his flight; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAUpauuAkehX
Ev'n then secur'd him, when I sought with joy 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAipLXwfQf8U
The vow'd destruction of ungrateful Troy. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAY9iU5TRSzI
My will's the same: fair goddess, fear no more, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAgj97Y6KSF1
Your fleet shall safely gain the Latian shore; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAQY2LKLabbM
Their lives are giv'n; one destin'd head alone 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAggcAjddPe0
Shall perish, and for multitudes atone." 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAJkofXxHNKi
Thus having arm'd with hopes her anxious mind, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfqT9M21JKB
His finny team Saturnian Neptune join'd, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA5ei9XKE33e
Then adds the foamy bridle to their jaws, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANALgqL4he9Il
And to the loosen'd reins permits the laws. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAuXpinNfESv
High on the waves his azure car he guides; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAJVlXQJp0m7
Its axles thunder, and the sea subsides, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANASRvMdZCg6F
And the smooth ocean rolls her silent tides. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANATQI7olIhs1
The tempests fly before their father's face, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAoHUMhuqCxg
Trains of inferior gods his triumph grace, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAmjbu0vftD2
And monster whales before their master play, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANADyh0TKenx3
And choirs of Tritons crowd the wat'ry way. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANATDannrtN51
The marshal'd pow'rs in equal troops divide 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAc42itKcnjO
To right and left; the gods his better side 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAvjje58kWHo
Inclose, and on the worse the Nymphs and Nereids ride. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAgwKBjrKhQe
Now smiling hope, with sweet vicissitude, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA8iKxEPXwSZ
Within the hero's mind his joys renew'd. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAj5s86ez1ns
He calls to raise the masts, the sheets display; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA64iRlAWLhR
The cheerful crew with diligence obey; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAJe1Ngp00f3
They scud before the wind, and sail in open sea. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAoWYSgTJpNX
Ahead of all the master pilot steers; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANANPZL4ApCuU
And, as he leads, the following navy veers. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAShyEvvmThS
The steeds of Night had travel'd half the sky, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANADGYtLx1G9R
The drowsy rowers on their benches lie, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANApaIZcV3kBp
When the soft God of Sleep, with easy flight, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAdkY7Vk7Nvy
Descends, and draws behind a trail of light. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAceykZqSfxs
Thou, Palinurus, art his destin'd prey; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAKFaW2jFsEa
To thee alone he takes his fatal way. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAbbankLSJMs
Dire dreams to thee, and iron sleep, he bears; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAdGXu1XMuUo
And, lighting on thy prow, the form of Phorbas wears. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAF5YOx57hDf
Then thus the traitor god began his tale: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAaZ2qvhHMnu
"The winds, my friend, inspire a pleasing gale; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAd5XfHPckVl
The ships, without thy care, securely sail. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAA2YewoUuqv
Now steal an hour of sweet repose; and I 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAIjgv6jY3F5
Will take the rudder and thy room supply." 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAwGLwsQ81Cm
To whom the yawning pilot, half asleep: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAYrx7sfsSGA
"Me dost thou bid to trust the treach'rous deep, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfe0ygJhbjm
The harlot smiles of her dissembling face, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAnUwNCIZBbE
And to her faith commit the Trojan race? 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAdkXFJ6m6Fw
Shall I believe the Siren South again, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAruuF00A2lX
And, oft betray'd, not know the monster main?" 1311Please respect copyright.PENANARUQCAI6Wt6
He said: his fasten'd hands the rudder keep, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAL6MOD3gKvI
And, fix'd on heav'n, his eyes repel invading sleep. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAYAsnDkoyOS
The god was wroth, and at his temples threw 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAgWmrdavOtJ
A branch in Lethe dipp'd, and drunk with Stygian dew: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANANyZThSAaAX
The pilot, vanquish'd by the pow'r divine, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAEhKKaJlEOn
Soon clos'd his swimming eyes, and lay supine. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANABGXclULauH
Scarce were his limbs extended at their length, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAzvSEIljuOa
The god, insulting with superior strength, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANALsv4ZjIMZv
Fell heavy on him, plung'd him in the sea, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAmoXkH6Q935
And, with the stern, the rudder tore away. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANARSACOqtGfY
Headlong he fell, and, struggling in the main, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfZs7KOGsBl
Cried out for helping hands, but cried in vain. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAN2Ra0BqZmh
The victor daemon mounts obscure in air, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAP66inVkXQH
While the ship sails without the pilot's care. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAt9yvrfWInu
On Neptune's faith the floating fleet relies; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAe3zcOUq2QL
But what the man forsook, the god supplies, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANANgiFz8UfgL
And o'er the dang'rous deep secure the navy flies; 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAE5eHSvjS79
Glides by the Sirens' cliffs, a shelfy coast, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAvAdSqabcOT
Long infamous for ships and sailors lost, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAVMmLSBmuLb
And white with bones. Th' impetuous ocean roars, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA2AyM2E7wkZ
And rocks rebellow from the sounding shores. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA7YHKO6MEfx
The watchful hero felt the knocks, and found 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfxbomjkazw
The tossing vessel sail'd on shoaly ground. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANA0tZJeWlXvC
Sure of his pilot's loss, he takes himself 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAfcAdwohaqR
The helm, and steers aloof, and shuns the shelf. 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAGjB3VD3peb
Inly he griev'd, and, groaning from the breast, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAMjilpzbXyf
Deplor'd his death; and thus his pain express'd: 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAuEw0eN80h1
"For faith repos'd on seas, and on the flatt'ring sky, 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAoSalON90sT
Thy naked corpse is doom'd on shores unknown to lie." 1311Please respect copyright.PENANAKrLxbhGR4a
