Meantime the Trojan cuts his wat'ry way, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA4fdEEH6FFg
Fix'd on his voyage, thro' the curling sea; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAZIZ7upovtz
Then, casting back his eyes, with dire amaze, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAxfDCYUPkR0
Sees on the Punic shore the mounting blaze. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA66XIyPdiJ9
The cause unknown; yet his presaging mind 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAq95Q8J95Xo
The fate of Dido from the fire divin'd; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANATIa0luondK
He knew the stormy souls of womankind, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA5bITTfKUzu
What secret springs their eager passions move, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANArYZg3R4tAx
How capable of death for injur'd love. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAoiimQsFPFF
Dire auguries from hence the Trojans draw; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAFyieKKV21p
Till neither fires nor shining shores they saw. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAvf02DZiQ6a
Now seas and skies their prospect only bound; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANApuRUeSms0z
An empty space above, a floating field around. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAfqU9Wca8u8
But soon the heav'ns with shadows were o'erspread; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAF5udoNMb9M
A swelling cloud hung hov'ring o'er their head: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAXaqbHKndxD
Livid it look'd, the threat'ning of a storm: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA7zKM8p5fSH
Then night and horror ocean's face deform. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANApDawlTrnUG
The pilot, Palinurus, cried aloud: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAFkmfmQsANe
"What gusts of weather from that gath'ring cloud 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAoIsmAguiBd
My thoughts presage! Ere yet the tempest roars, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAuPNPAmhitb
Stand to your tackle, mates, and stretch your oars; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAH51F0CD2Xc
Contract your swelling sails, and luff to wind." 1075Please respect copyright.PENANABDwjmWl4LN
The frighted crew perform the task assign'd. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAnQJxVhY0SX
Then, to his fearless chief: "Not Heav'n," said he, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAvNU01IEYHp
"Tho' Jove himself should promise Italy, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANALlivrugrHy
Can stem the torrent of this raging sea. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAldw8sLcFeG
Mark how the shifting winds from west arise, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAAPSx2J1JZX
And what collected night involves the skies! 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAVqPhwVDQSL
Nor can our shaken vessels live at sea, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAiSu33c6f7u
Much less against the tempest force their way. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAf6tf7VqzkY
'T is fate diverts our course, and fate we must obey. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAT2z2RbQLvX
Not far from hence, if I observ'd aright 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAJaUtL6Jpsx
The southing of the stars, and polar light, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANABMMizCvgFn
Sicilia lies, whose hospitable shores 1075Please respect copyright.PENANApPcPhbdsDN
In safety we may reach with struggling oars." 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAUiMScnnb5Q
Aeneas then replied: "Too sure I find 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAmchG5xwFPp
We strive in vain against the seas and wind: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAYg7L8mjg8M
Now shift your sails; what place can please me more 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAwkhkKZjInh
Than what you promise, the Sicilian shore, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAdqux9nvKxV
Whose hallow'd earth Anchises' bones contains, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAq9C95ExiW5
And where a prince of Trojan lineage reigns?" 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAUEzNSWm7SE
The course resolv'd, before the western wind 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAI0L5cjv4zM
They scud amain, and make the port assign'd. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAcaLkTIHySj
Meantime Acestes, from a lofty stand, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA4vyXygSnOq
Beheld the fleet descending on the land; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAchuaEuLcll
And, not unmindful of his ancient race, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA9W4nAEZ9ML
Down from the cliff he ran with eager pace, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA9FB4OqPcT3
And held the hero in a strict embrace. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA01K2hwza3U
Of a rough Libyan bear the spoils he wore, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA1tCVH2wcG6
And either hand a pointed jav'lin bore. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA25rEymbBVK
His mother was a dame of Dardan blood; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANARBw9IQzcRi
His sire Crinisus, a Sicilian flood. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANALX9RSe61pW
He welcomes his returning friends ashore 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAxzPjmajPKd
With plenteous country cates and homely store. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAlZZOP2pmDH
Now, when the following morn had chas'd away 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAtSpPdyqDnY
The flying stars, and light restor'd the day, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANALmKS7vpY6P
Aeneas call'd the Trojan troops around, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAuI1AyYFbkJ
And thus bespoke them from a rising ground: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA7V1DSULUMI
"Offspring of heav'n, divine Dardanian race! 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAPOJKJUStqc
The sun, revolving thro' th' ethereal space, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAuAPPFVnrj3
The shining circle of the year has fill'd, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAhKvB7P8qIQ
Since first this isle my father's ashes held: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA9898Cf1beL
And now the rising day renews the year; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAPnJ1Yt0m8P
A day for ever sad, for ever dear. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA852rAEyNty
This would I celebrate with annual games, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAXCoIVxjpU5
With gifts on altars pil'd, and holy flames, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAW0YekD69B7
Tho' banish'd to Gaetulia's barren sands, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANArRZvteqCzF
Caught on the Grecian seas, or hostile lands: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAu3nDCzoDD4
But since this happy storm our fleet has driv'n 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAXjU0crW1FR
(Not, as I deem, without the will of Heav'n) 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAZmUM6P1gA5
Upon these friendly shores and flow'ry plains, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANANbEFz76Zzi
Which hide Anchises and his blest remains, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA1ZmzhJNouu
Let us with joy perform his honors due, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANALvI9koZUvq
And pray for prosp'rous winds, our voyage to renew; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAE52mhOmW3h
Pray, that in towns and temples of our own, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA2R64vOArY7
The name of great Anchises may be known, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAysEe31JVC8
And yearly games may spread the gods' renown. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA5DB8jFqOfr
Our sports Acestes, of the Trojan race, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAvl38xg9fpF
With royal gifts ordain'd, is pleas'd to grace: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAhy9SMNlCZK
Two steers on ev'ry ship the king bestows; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAMJqrenVrXx
His gods and ours shall share your equal vows. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA4Qnu1H9id9
Besides, if, nine days hence, the rosy morn 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAYNZgCVhHE3
Shall with unclouded light the skies adorn, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANARpsOftw3nN
That day with solemn sports I mean to grace: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAC4jgjlfDxo
Light galleys on the seas shall run a wat'ry race; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAOWC6OGwbua
Some shall in swiftness for the goal contend, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAuqa2RwttOn
And others try the twanging bow to bend; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA1udLSXNSka
The strong, with iron gauntlets arm'd, shall stand 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA7VUddOzrh0
Oppos'd in combat on the yellow sand. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAtGOCiZbhxw
Let all be present at the games prepar'd, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA68jxPixITD
And joyful victors wait the just reward. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAtKPHx0o4p2
But now assist the rites, with garlands crown'd." 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAfA3kmk1mM2
He said, and first his brows with myrtle bound. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANASIAHg2TKRb
Then Helymus, by his example led, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAgFntepMkfY
And old Acestes, each adorn'd his head; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAmzO25F6qw1
Thus young Ascanius, with a sprightly grace, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAgCUrUAblg5
His temples tied, and all the Trojan race. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA0a0fUTJIJP
Aeneas then advanc'd amidst the train, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAJSFBOSGNke
By thousands follow'd thro' the flow'ry plain, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAMzfesgpm48
To great Anchises' tomb; which when he found, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANARSDVfo42k1
He pour'd to Bacchus, on the hallow'd ground, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA2VQYbi5CgC
Two bowls of sparkling wine, of milk two more, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAj7vC3cbiEj
And two (from offer'd bulls) of purple gore, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAZhVXXlRMwQ
With roses then the sepulcher he strow'd 1075Please respect copyright.PENANApEn3pcDZPc
And thus his father's ghost bespoke aloud: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA0CggrXmjF2
"Hail, O ye holy manes! hail again, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAw1xMj731L5
Paternal ashes, now review'd in vain! 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAUhL67zB8Yk
The gods permitted not, that you, with me, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAJjCJQTcFFX
Should reach the promis'd shores of Italy, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANABHnpxsLpRj
Or Tiber's flood, what flood soe'er it be." 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAnBmxO6JZCe
Scarce had he finish'd, when, with speckled pride, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAUGnxf05kYS
A serpent from the tomb began to glide; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAvoT65YTa32
His hugy bulk on sev'n high volumes roll'd; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAt01pYwmntc
Blue was his breadth of back, but streak'd with scaly gold: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAGbdio9hMtW
Thus riding on his curls, he seem'd to pass 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAJ6kMDqpSt8
A rolling fire along, and singe the grass. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAOvOKpJGpmd
More various colors thro' his body run, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANASnF9FaF9Us
Than Iris when her bow imbibes the sun. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAcFUBsxVlvU
Betwixt the rising altars, and around, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAFnbcPlqwo9
The sacred monster shot along the ground; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAFVmF6LbEAI
With harmless play amidst the bowls he pass'd, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAloR4WVnZMk
And with his lolling tongue assay'd the taste: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAJFWEbbf6dp
Thus fed with holy food, the wondrous guest 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAUGShZ9pFPY
Within the hollow tomb retir'd to rest. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAf8G7L9d47D
The pious prince, surpris'd at what he view'd, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAgOI7o8ZgIe
The fun'ral honors with more zeal renew'd, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAjpMdUvSyfn
Doubtful if this place's genius were, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANANBg7bI2VQ3
Or guardian of his father's sepulcher. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAeKj8LT9EtP
Five sheep, according to the rites, he slew; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAn5B5x1v9ac
As many swine, and steers of sable hue; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAkj6fFFHw5Y
New gen'rous wine he from the goblets pour'd. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAg5uDJMQcvG
And call'd his father's ghost, from hell restor'd. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAhKdA69xBTK
The glad attendants in long order come, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA5q0V4uQkVO
Off'ring their gifts at great Anchises' tomb: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANACOCBxB5l1J
Some add more oxen: some divide the spoil; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAl8g4hAosqy
Some place the chargers on the grassy soil; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA5BqkP1J9hW
Some blow the fires, and off entrails broil. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAV6JfQXoRjR
Now came the day desir'd. The skies were bright 1075Please respect copyright.PENANApQZmGN877P
With rosy luster of the rising light: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAPdddKwMJHZ
The bord'ring people, rous'd by sounding fame 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAScRlleaMgH
Of Trojan feasts and great Acestes' name, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAwIjJVfmitt
The crowded shore with acclamations fill, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAhx522CrRKs
Part to behold, and part to prove their skill. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAZu25KGfaco
And first the gifts in public view they place, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAPpLCst8hrW
Green laurel wreaths, and palm, the victors' grace: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAPLO4BcXQof
Within the circle, arms and tripods lie, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAnX7H9sQdLy
Ingots of gold and silver, heap'd on high, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAV9TgHw3k80
And vests embroider'd, of the Tyrian dye. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA371WPcdpVf
The trumpet's clangor then the feast proclaims, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANANLiJmWMkAM
And all prepare for their appointed games. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAd5DobJeeXy
Four galleys first, which equal rowers bear, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAxNVDsnBxqH
Advancing, in the wat'ry lists appear. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAcsUx5mpCPC
The speedy Dolphin, that outstrips the wind, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAXUCAJMmSE1
Bore Mnestheus, author of the Memmian kind: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAEjqywbelsS
Gyas the vast Chimaera's bulk commands, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANApYafjsoTZA
Which rising, like a tow'ring city stands; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAovu1haZZK7
Three Trojans tug at ev'ry lab'ring oar; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAJsKtHdePc2
Three banks in three degrees the sailors bore; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAWaHr7UwUSQ
Beneath their sturdy strokes the billows roar. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAL6y0aVx6mw
Sergesthus, who began the Sergian race, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAlupcgC8fY8
In the great Centaur took the leading place; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAMPjvnLV2h4
Cloanthus on the sea-green Scylla stood, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAjC03DGGHRP
From whom Cluentius draws his Trojan blood. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANATX8vRI4qXJ
Far in the sea, against the foaming shore, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAVCMNssx51y
There stands a rock: the raging billows roar 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA6o7Ohq0Q80
Above his head in storms; but, when 't is clear, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAKEgBOPVah8
Uncurl their ridgy backs, and at his foot appear. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANATOPStnlDes
In peace below the gentle waters run; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAo5lcjFt9jr
The cormorants above lie basking in the sun. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANApXU8OhgdzP
On this the hero fix'd an oak in sight, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAM8MzyhR5tJ
The mark to guide the mariners aright. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA1pjT0lPhMq
To bear with this, the seamen stretch their oars; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAzTmo7JEeqy
Then round the rock they steer, and seek the former shores. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAdktS8NubBl
The lots decide their place. Above the rest, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAHLOETxVCgx
Each leader shining in his Tyrian vest; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANArtRh0L7gED
The common crew with wreaths of poplar boughs 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAWJ4ruBT5L8
Their temples crown, and shade their sweaty brows: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAd3Mnt33HPn
Besmear'd with oil, their naked shoulders shine. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAre8jcjZhAb
All take their seats, and wait the sounding sign: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA680egkM1N2
They gripe their oars; and ev'ry panting breast 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA3Y1ADh0zRp
Is rais'd by turns with hope, by turns with fear depress'd. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAWRnnCdCtXW
The clangor of the trumpet gives the sign; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAKfSGy3yEEV
At once they start, advancing in a line: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAoxEiyH1dyj
With shouts the sailors rend the starry skies; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA1GGeveljTH
Lash'd with their oars, the smoky billows rise; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANApH5DkVtJmG
Sparkles the briny main, and the vex'd ocean fries. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAI1ruRV84si
Exact in time, with equal strokes they row: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAih2bl0P5wm
At once the brushing oars and brazen prow 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAFz5iWWk69z
Dash up the sandy waves, and ope the depths below. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAoccMkY2S23
Not fiery coursers, in a chariot race, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAhypv3by6dh
Invade the field with half so swift a pace; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAdk6xpe3oHJ
Not the fierce driver with more fury lends 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAeyz3it5Xqw
The sounding lash, and, ere the stroke descends, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA19FYvZMIBj
Low to the wheels his pliant body bends. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAnMDSmSvKgt
The partial crowd their hopes and fears divide, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAHUJU6f2Tef
And aid with eager shouts the favor'd side. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAvYW09yXTOB
Cries, murmurs, clamors, with a mixing sound, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAHsRyOB1hWf
From woods to woods, from hills to hills rebound. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAyz48UCCeNc
Amidst the loud applauses of the shore, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANADRMVGlLHOv
Gyas outstripp'd the rest, and sprung before: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAkkpSCcyKIi
Cloanthus, better mann'd, pursued him fast, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA3Bxc5r9xX8
But his o'er-masted galley check'd his haste. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAWdHdT8P5HS
The Centaur and the Dolphin brush the brine 1075Please respect copyright.PENANANMl9SddUke
With equal oars, advancing in a line; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANABxkr34eVq7
And now the mighty Centaur seems to lead, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAmM2v711hBI
And now the speedy Dolphin gets ahead; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAFTuk5bCoWN
Now board to board the rival vessels row, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAljy5NVlQl6
The billows lave the skies, and ocean groans below. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAIDwOF0dXuc
They reach'd the mark. Proud Gyas and his train 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA9WUTDgSGIW
In triumph rode, the victors of the main; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANALargTrJ5Ny
But, steering round, he charg'd his pilot stand 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAMrXmbANNiv
More close to shore, and skim along the sand- 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAOdvtQWoDGS
"Let others bear to sea!" Menoetes heard; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAseCo2fWaAA
But secret shelves too cautiously he fear'd, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAvx5KMbcBxV
And, fearing, sought the deep; and still aloof he steer'd. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAW3oUmUOiGP
With louder cries the captain call'd again: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAW6I5KGw8mP
"Bear to the rocky shore, and shun the main." 1075Please respect copyright.PENANASJsiALDYGT
He spoke, and, speaking, at his stern he saw 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAjR90BXTk1b
The bold Cloanthus near the shelvings draw. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAuYqQvoJNwa
Betwixt the mark and him the Scylla stood, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAQjrjqNNkmm
And in a closer compass plow'd the flood. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAVZVVpUxXOY
He pass'd the mark; and, wheeling, got before: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAFbZO3slJ1K
Gyas blasphem'd the gods, devoutly swore, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAz8rzrlzs0Q
Cried out for anger, and his hair he tore. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAHcNaMGqprd
Mindless of others' lives (so high was grown 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAec6mAfLeaL
His rising rage) and careless of his own, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA7n5zonTjmX
The trembling dotard to the deck he drew; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAqBLzsL1wXy
Then hoisted up, and overboard he threw: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAGNM1v6D2Sr
This done, he seiz'd the helm; his fellows cheer'd, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANATa6DmSKLrx
Turn'd short upon the shelfs, and madly steer'd. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAs9G3dxmI3Z
Hardly his head the plunging pilot rears, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA2a1436n1L7
Clogg'd with his clothes, and cumber'd with his years: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA9P1bN6npt1
Now dropping wet, he climbs the cliff with pain. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAhm9HdVML1w
The crowd, that saw him fall and float again, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAp5ZNMfWljZ
Shout from the distant shore; and loudly laugh'd, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAsoGXTJhcUf
To see his heaving breast disgorge the briny draught. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAtsTC2Y66cj
The following Centaur, and the Dolphin's crew, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAigJ4nSQkrv
Their vanish'd hopes of victory renew; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAucCx0eTZ1n
While Gyas lags, they kindle in the race, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAfKNIxAi4cd
To reach the mark. Sergesthus takes the place; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAJegeksnsbj
Mnestheus pursues; and while around they wind, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAboiFJFHu61
Comes up, not half his galley's length behind; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAM0Mbcki84K
Then, on the deck, amidst his mates appear'd, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANArKDdiyppFY
And thus their drooping courage he cheer'd: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAgUDtdzLC5L
"My friends, and Hector's followers heretofore, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAPQH5TDIXI0
Exert your vigor; tug the lab'ring oar; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANANmQeTXHfyL
Stretch to your strokes, my still unconquer'd crew, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAwEGopAFQVm
Whom from the flaming walls of Troy I drew. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAUKyDtmsGzh
In this, our common int'rest, let me find 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAMYtQ2Dyuqt
That strength of hand, that courage of the mind, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAZCWsUwZNU1
As when you stemm'd the strong Malean flood, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAW7YxO7lhgn
And o'er the Syrtes' broken billows row'd. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAy6M49XWXgD
I seek not now the foremost palm to gain; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAP8xgrnyNKW
Tho' yet- but, ah! that haughty wish is vain! 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAKPC2YMvbeP
Let those enjoy it whom the gods ordain. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAmytqc5L3md
But to be last, the lags of all the race!- 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAjrDDHvgaU1
Redeem yourselves and me from that disgrace." 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAYcqPP9iPzb
Now, one and all, they tug amain; they row 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA2WV4lNEkMr
At the full stretch, and shake the brazen prow. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAkRQLQO2YXH
The sea beneath 'em sinks; their lab'ring sides 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAmsDSbjfS4h
Are swell'd, and sweat runs gutt'ring down in tides. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAqG2LKmaEpp
Chance aids their daring with unhop'd success; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAtK4C4mu9Js
Sergesthus, eager with his beak to press 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA8dpRBa4UU1
Betwixt the rival galley and the rock, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAZatbuzSPtR
Shuts up th' unwieldly Centaur in the lock. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAkBrg1uelJ9
The vessel struck; and, with the dreadful shock, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAN0yxuMOadL
Her oars she shiver'd, and her head she broke. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAsGIaX1jQnZ
The trembling rowers from their banks arise, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANASiA8a6pz0i
And, anxious for themselves, renounce the prize. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAEpcF4WwoOO
With iron poles they heave her off the shores, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAtD3xjAR63N
And gather from the sea their floating oars. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANALbOvtYeqdR
The crew of Mnestheus, with elated minds, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANALzlNfudg5S
Urge their success, and call the willing winds; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAJCsm4LZp3H
Then ply their oars, and cut their liquid way 1075Please respect copyright.PENANApMZZZIizOG
In larger compass on the roomy sea. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANATYhlgbMgSf
As, when the dove her rocky hold forsakes, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA1JsjCz9w3v
Rous'd in a fright, her sounding wings she shakes; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAzDXcnBwMsf
The cavern rings with clatt'ring; out she flies, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAy4pX5iaW3e
And leaves her callow care, and cleaves the skies: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAItP3qmaSOI
At first she flutters; but at length she springs 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAY1SeIr12TC
To smoother flight, and shoots upon her wings: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA9TtOC5890I
So Mnestheus in the Dolphin cuts the sea; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAGOrtsqs7z2
And, flying with a force, that force assists his way. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAwTB7PVSVSu
Sergesthus in the Centaur soon he pass'd, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAMixxAkIKRS
Wedg'd in the rocky shoals, and sticking fast. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAxqLC4Z0BkM
In vain the victor he with cries implores, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA6XB86wlzj1
And practices to row with shatter'd oars. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAXBPA4xi9qr
Then Mnestheus bears with Gyas, and outflies: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAWH5Ofw3eGt
The ship, without a pilot, yields the prize. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA8zFHKgoVTO
Unvanquish'd Scylla now alone remains; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA8NYH41vqua
Her he pursues, and all his vigor strains. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANALINJQQtz5u
Shouts from the fav'ring multitude arise; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAk5sFQ3pwjt
Applauding Echo to the shouts replies; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAVsO0VRrAo2
Shouts, wishes, and applause run rattling thro' the skies. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA4IHGX4iJxN
These clamors with disdain the Scylla heard, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAl8hUGskdgC
Much grudg'd the praise, but more the robb'd reward: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAyVj5CEAfse
Resolv'd to hold their own, they mend their pace, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAdpLul5i3RM
All obstinate to die, or gain the race. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAN5ujwVHskZ
Rais'd with success, the Dolphin swiftly ran; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAuEXZxNIEcH
For they can conquer, who believe they can. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANATAk3gnWNzP
Both urge their oars, and fortune both supplies, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAbG5TJ8OhzE
And both perhaps had shar'd an equal prize; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAGRsyUhAmci
When to the seas Cloanthus holds his hands, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAJzSoxCBteL
And succor from the wat'ry pow'rs demands: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAAmYd7LOqYF
"Gods of the liquid realms, on which I row! 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAhHwL5CjR00
If, giv'n by you, the laurel bind my brow, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAXFmKsXemBd
Assist to make me guilty of my vow! 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAnilvA5LN2n
A snow-white bull shall on your shore be slain; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAY2TYisrthl
His offer'd entrails cast into the main, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAtxLLqzvWM6
And ruddy wine, from golden goblets thrown, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA1tHJM7nnVI
Your grateful gift and my return shall own." 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAnuZanZHAuv
The choir of nymphs, and Phorcus, from below, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAEBMIcXoqqz
With virgin Panopea, heard his vow; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAyhaWr1X2Yl
And old Portunus, with his breadth of hand, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAMQqCRMIplq
Push'd on, and sped the galley to the land. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAi1e8rKEGmE
Swift as a shaft, or winged wind, she flies, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA22mPvpvO41
And, darting to the port, obtains the prize. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAgqWe3xJPE2
The herald summons all, and then proclaims 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA30da6pBvGI
Cloanthus conqu'ror of the naval games. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANApoDBATXds6
The prince with laurel crowns the victor's head, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANArwtgwy8rYb
And three fat steers are to his vessel led, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA0QD2qsJ6lt
The ship's reward; with gen'rous wine beside, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAKaV0UY9AQu
And sums of silver, which the crew divide. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAfzcugB7ebB
The leaders are distinguish'd from the rest; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAOtJQW9UeHg
The victor honor'd with a nobler vest, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA4JAy7wYQXL
Where gold and purple strive in equal rows, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAawnGj68ehF
And needlework its happy cost bestows. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAPOwfdf1Gnz
There Ganymede is wrought with living art, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAjxAltFcopJ
Chasing thro' Ida's groves the trembling hart: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANATEcvRQxwzJ
Breathless he seems, yet eager to pursue; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAAv6BAGDzde
When from aloft descends, in open view, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAMJ6sPWtTZU
The bird of Jove, and, sousing on his prey, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAdgoMWYGUZb
With crooked talons bears the boy away. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA6gFsB8arw7
In vain, with lifted hands and gazing eyes, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAARLaAOfBbg
His guards behold him soaring thro' the skies, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANARHqJKzlew4
And dogs pursue his flight with imitated cries. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAC2Z0Wln5Gp
Mnestheus the second victor was declar'd; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAQOvlIZCBnF
And, summon'd there, the second prize he shard. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAZFdpJyMQIF
A coat of mail, brave Demoleus bore, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAa955S1wiOU
More brave Aeneas from his shoulders tore, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAfKX7mWTLBH
In single combat on the Trojan shore: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAusZVi0T7or
This was ordain'd for Mnestheus to possess; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAXf21cpO1OV
In war for his defense, for ornament in peace. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAj7FUHQ8UB3
Rich was the gift, and glorious to behold, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAVmDm5rfIUB
But yet so pond'rous with its plates of gold, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAiE0N3bG65j
That scarce two servants could the weight sustain; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA5vlXpwPGDu
Yet, loaded thus, Demoleus o'er the plain 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA8KMkj3vJGE
Pursued and lightly seiz'd the Trojan train. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAQuYjc3brlO
The third, succeeding to the last reward, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANALjeIjJm48q
Two goodly bowls of massy silver shar'd, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAwvz7uyW8cr
With figures prominent, and richly wrought, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAXow0Md6yFu
And two brass caldrons from Dodona brought. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA5hnHVYOml4
Thus all, rewarded by the hero's hands, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANALYsO1QDWyH
Their conqu'ring temples bound with purple bands; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAYI61EKfZeW
And now Sergesthus, clearing from the rock, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA1Sod1OlmDV
Brought back his galley shatter'd with the shock. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAbqpqntjR7o
Forlorn she look'd, without an aiding oar, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAGbRo6ZeqeX
And, houted by the vulgar, made to shore. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA4uNo0iEc5g
As when a snake, surpris'd upon the road, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAHLbIldtG1l
Is crush'd athwart her body by the load 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAEN0EDgh20e
Of heavy wheels; or with a mortal wound 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAYM9ftl7bBT
Her belly bruis'd, and trodden to the ground: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAJGjGxLMaEo
In vain, with loosen'd curls, she crawls along; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAdXNBZAYhrd
Yet, fierce above, she brandishes her tongue; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAvPEoiDNHaX
Glares with her eyes, and bristles with her scales; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAe0nHc3gx1y
But, groveling in the dust, her parts unsound she trails: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAuw3gQKv6BW
So slowly to the port the Centaur tends, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAvrq0MU9FQp
But, what she wants in oars, with sails amends. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAJsnFxrtdEE
Yet, for his galley sav'd, the grateful prince 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAHuj7uE8CSK
Is pleas'd th' unhappy chief to recompense. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAEiUj3S47gJ
Pholoe, the Cretan slave, rewards his care, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAdBrdbWPOWA
Beauteous herself, with lovely twins as fair. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAdvPdMQlqrS
From thence his way the Trojan hero bent 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAB9Ph76Itrr
Into the neighb'ring plain, with mountains pent, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAqIlXXs9n6p
Whose sides were shaded with surrounding wood. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAxRB3HQxGHS
Full in the midst of this fair valley stood 1075Please respect copyright.PENANARWEBPHh51t
A native theater, which, rising slow 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA5yOAAUhXHT
By just degrees, o'erlook'd the ground below. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAFcLu6P8KN1
High on a sylvan throne the leader sate; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAqMeJCmrYgW
A num'rous train attend in solemn state. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAZBCoa2ygJj
Here those that in the rapid course delight, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAoAgcoQmMmr
Desire of honor and the prize invite. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA5xPAkVnuA2
The rival runners without order stand; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAZ85QlR8IXc
The Trojans mix'd with the Sicilian band. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAaXGZJLJC0W
First Nisus, with Euryalus, appears; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANADbvPiOp27W
Euryalus a boy of blooming years, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAZirfg6omql
With sprightly grace and equal beauty crown'd; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANANhcgR0uznZ
Nisus, for friendship to the youth renown'd. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA2VU3cQiLek
Diores next, of Priam's royal race, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA06x4uayszH
Then Salius joined with Patron, took their place; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANABcfJvxBDHJ
(But Patron in Arcadia had his birth, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAF70KxhDL1X
And Salius his from Arcananian earth;) 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAvvbRyExjM0
Then two Sicilian youths- the names of these, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA5m7rirvx8H
Swift Helymus, and lovely Panopes: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA72dHmsHxpR
Both jolly huntsmen, both in forest bred, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAlQm40C1lMB
And owning old Acestes for their head; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA1hRmI1Kbfs
With sev'ral others of ignobler name, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAHKoqzW3lB0
Whom time has not deliver'd o'er to fame. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAS6RCMSsaHD
To these the hero thus his thoughts explain'd, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAoc65Lh0J1P
In words which gen'ral approbation gain'd: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAdD8ff9MRyU
"One common largess is for all design'd, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAJnOh0Qheg0
(The vanquish'd and the victor shall be join'd,) 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA34lSYXVuox
Two darts of polish'd steel and Gnosian wood, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAFnqElCO2ZY
A silver-studded ax, alike bestow'd. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAyOKghlMSA8
The foremost three have olive wreaths decreed: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANABME7wJT4WU
The first of these obtains a stately steed, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAR8LXIoAj2c
Adorn'd with trappings; and the next in fame, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAU8y3j6K8dD
The quiver of an Amazonian dame, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA7GIc7NhAId
With feather'd Thracian arrows well supplied: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAqf4oDJ0xvv
A golden belt shall gird his manly side, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAw4PHyZA1iM
Which with a sparkling diamond shall be tied. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAH8Z4IGXnzJ
The third this Grecian helmet shall content." 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAqCPRb4ufVZ
He said. To their appointed base they went; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAxzjQsOuTrk
With beating hearts th' expected sign receive, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAsreYmqWvok
And, starting all at once, the barrier leave. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAoDqkUdWeKs
Spread out, as on the winged winds, they flew, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAREBr3afQRv
And seiz'd the distant goal with greedy view. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAoJR1AMbMDa
Shot from the crowd, swift Nisus all o'erpass'd; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAqjDnCuLCQZ
Nor storms, nor thunder, equal half his haste. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAdzPuItNYl6
The next, but tho' the next, yet far disjoin'd, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAXgXl2mgear
Came Salius, and Euryalus behind; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANASza8r2rF68
Then Helymus, whom young Diores plied, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAvpUaXgNjuU
Step after step, and almost side by side, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAu151Qtr15M
His shoulders pressing; and, in longer space, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANATjJNv6mMFf
Had won, or left at least a dubious race. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAWmzmHvBTEE
Now, spent, the goal they almost reach at last, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA6A0mgbM3lZ
When eager Nisus, hapless in his haste, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAy4wXXg3NT5
Slipp'd first, and, slipping, fell upon the plain, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAtOvIqx95zm
Soak'd with the blood of oxen newly slain. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAbfIQtNjxIK
The careless victor had not mark'd his way; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAmJO3hBL3Mj
But, treading where the treach'rous puddle lay, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAytelv7bLpj
His heels flew up; and on the grassy floor 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA9G1Fh3jsyd
He fell, besmear'd with filth and holy gore. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAZtY3bB50Da
Not mindless then, Euryalus, of thee, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAD704u5JJAt
Nor of the sacred bonds of amity, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAY8AYkobJsa
He strove th' immediate rival's hope to cross, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA6XCytDMoqu
And caught the foot of Salius as he rose. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAjuzAjt9dcu
So Salius lay extended on the plain; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANALahTbXjXyH
Euryalus springs out, the prize to gain, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA4HLzr9f1uJ
And leaves the crowd: applauding peals attend 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAzkeNoRJ2zJ
The victor to the goal, who vanquish'd by his friend. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANADYkKtvVXbN
Next Helymus; and then Diores came, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANARht1iQxEtj
By two misfortunes made the third in fame. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAmkkh1xjYdl
But Salius enters, and, exclaiming loud 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAfIA2RpqMTD
For justice, deafens and disturbs the crowd; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAYxQr2zFnHS
Urges his cause may in the court be heard; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA0TQPdIyUTk
And pleads the prize is wrongfully conferr'd. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAy4eUYLGIhZ
But favor for Euryalus appears; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAy35dCic22M
His blooming beauty, with his tender tears, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANABsNGhIEnwA
Had brib'd the judges for the promis'd prize. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAIRlnBTlppK
Besides, Diores fills the court with cries, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA9kANG3D8k5
Who vainly reaches at the last reward, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAJQ5lXpkefq
If the first palm on Salius be conferr'd. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAeyR3Zi0zf9
Then thus the prince: "Let no disputes arise: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANANgEPYKMy7F
Where fortune plac'd it, I award the prize. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAUkAPrj3R1t
But fortune's errors give me leave to mend, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAVSGlp8XhmR
At least to pity my deserving friend." 1075Please respect copyright.PENANArZxe9DfVJH
He said, and, from among the spoils, he draws 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAjnXggTAXHs
(Pond'rous with shaggy mane and golden paws) 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA0YYywSYWaT
A lion's hide: to Salius this he gives. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANALW2HHey9tr
Nisus with envy sees the gift, and grieves. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAkTxiIgvTUn
"If such rewards to vanquish'd men are due." 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAD14qX59ADJ
He said, "and falling is to rise by you, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAT4omZPYxxU
What prize may Nisus from your bounty claim, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAnDsjpmCROx
Who merited the first rewards and fame? 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAnxeK4FQgps
In falling, both an equal fortune tried; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA0N8eHYh3Uc
Would fortune for my fall so well provide!" 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAn2TGbusDYP
With this he pointed to his face, and show'd 1075Please respect copyright.PENANApCV92jMAOY
His hand and all his habit smear'd with blood. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAcLegp3AXyj
Th' indulgent father of the people smil'd, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAcRTFU5rT4s
And caus'd to be produc'd an ample shield, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAyANkZQ8778
Of wondrous art, by Didymaon wrought, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAYakeYy0FJs
Long since from Neptune's bars in triumph brought. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAqun8u9QaQM
This giv'n to Nisus, he divides the rest, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAS0V2Iop2kj
And equal justice in his gifts express'd. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAQY4sihRfHF
The race thus ended, and rewards bestow'd, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAeEiVmF4fH7
Once more the princes bespeaks th' attentive crowd: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAgxr03LJNhv
"If there he here whose dauntless courage dare 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAFW5e7bZFI2
In gauntlet-fight, with limbs and body bare, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAcQlhdhDQsF
His opposite sustain in open view, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA0YxzpaIcUj
Stand forth the champion, and the games renew. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAeHxuFl9Vh9
Two prizes I propose, and thus divide: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAcHnOMjozp8
A bull with gilded horns, and fillets tied, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA43ZFa6JEUv
Shall be the portion of the conqu'ring chief; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAz7FM1ADxnt
A sword and helm shall cheer the loser's grief." 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAQEMkszOv1s
Then haughty Dares in the lists appears; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANASc9647RLdL
Stalking he strides, his head erected bears: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA0qhGSBoBKl
His nervous arms the weighty gauntlet wield, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAafbtcP4rMe
And loud applauses echo thro' the field. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAfR4PNL8g86
Dares alone in combat us'd to stand 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAmfnPHvjjqp
The match of mighty Paris, hand to hand; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANApdlbcOZci4
The same, at Hector's fun'rals, undertook 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAViGqRMnrlZ
Gigantic Butes, of th' Amycian stock, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAIEYTCejHKv
And, by the stroke of his resistless hand, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAaeN3X5A0nr
Stretch'd the vast bulk upon the yellow sand. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAFmNOJDnKXv
Such Dares was; and such he strode along, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA3M38uXFPlp
And drew the wonder of the gazing throng. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAkXNKoze8IE
His brawny back and ample breast he shows, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAeMNf7qkjZa
His lifted arms around his head he throws, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAzZQLtYVEJV
And deals in whistling air his empty blows. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANApUOYeqsxwj
His match is sought; but, thro' the trembling band, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAJiGdkSqyTp
Not one dares answer to the proud demand. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANArZtVzyRkw3
Presuming of his force, with sparkling eyes 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAF3qmJauadm
Already he devours the promis'd prize. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA6y4NGKvbUC
He claims the bull with awless insolence, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAd1gKiSqmWr
And having seiz'd his horns, accosts the prince: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAlvYn9YMLnC
"If none my matchless valor dares oppose, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANADczmZqLr6b
How long shall Dares wait his dastard foes? 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA22Ey1KT7my
Permit me, chief, permit without delay, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAtVxJbXYThX
To lead this uncontended gift away." 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAWC9nuRcBN5
The crowd assents, and with redoubled cries 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAIhGn4lP03k
For the proud challenger demands the prize. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANARNPFyrbgyQ
Acestes, fir'd with just disdain, to see 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAWyzGDTFh3u
The palm usurp'd without a victory, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANATZRmkQqFyC
Reproach'd Entellus thus, who sate beside, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANASpNpfUr0rm
And heard and saw, unmov'd, the Trojan's pride: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAwETnr2A89R
"Once, but in vain, a champion of renown, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA9BAZISUfmG
So tamely can you bear the ravish'd crown, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA2G9DZKsBmm
A prize in triumph borne before your sight, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAgqPmTADmpz
And shun, for fear, the danger of the fight? 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAkMpPOtGV2H
Where is our Eryx now, the boasted name, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA7Js7MwYvXB
The god who taught your thund'ring arm the game? 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAAHXZxb3VKt
Where now your baffled honor? Where the spoil 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAdfvM1vbXQP
That fill'd your house, and fame that fill'd our isle?" 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAPw3WURkB1M
Entellus, thus: "My soul is still the same, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAc1JemaWpb3
Unmov'd with fear, and mov'd with martial fame; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAoT2yXBGPo2
But my chill blood is curdled in my veins, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAAykfxxeCKM
And scarce the shadow of a man remains. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAxCfEbeT2Gy
O could I turn to that fair prime again, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAUm4kYuXpBp
That prime of which this boaster is so vain, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAEK8GCHn4IX
The brave, who this decrepid age defies, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAab0bK4cvES
Should feel my force, without the promis'd prize." 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAucggWbL4TC
He said; and, rising at the word, he threw 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAZNRQfkPfGK
Two pond'rous gauntlets down in open view; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA9XTujHwe6R
Gauntlets which Eryx wont in fight to wield, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAxUH30Mh70G
And sheathe his hands with in the listed field. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAzeuD778GNE
With fear and wonder seiz'd, the crowd beholds 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAcTERjvTnQ6
The gloves of death, with sev'n distinguish'd folds 1075Please respect copyright.PENANApoe2gD5hgc
Of tough bull hides; the space within is spread 1075Please respect copyright.PENANADnleQygKcL
With iron, or with loads of heavy lead: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAQLbfphiMJI
Dares himself was daunted at the sight, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA50ggj0VIWD
Renounc'd his challenge, and refus'd to fight. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAdLBR3sCHji
Astonish'd at their weight, the hero stands, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAzfsEO6ymlk
And pois'd the pond'rous engines in his hands. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANACtF4hcBfM6
"What had your wonder," said Entellus, "been, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANABXrsdKXT9J
Had you the gauntlets of Alcides seen, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAJPii5ldmA8
Or view'd the stern debate on this unhappy green! 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAiphf9d5fQ2
These which I bear your brother Eryx bore, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAJOhcuNyoCV
Still mark'd with batter'd brains and mingled gore. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAyHilU1ytXl
With these he long sustain'd th' Herculean arm; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAt5PcLXFKiH
And these I wielded while my blood was warm, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA5y18PapBQv
This languish'd frame while better spirits fed, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAKh8lR7yfbu
Ere age unstrung my nerves, or time o'ersnow'd my head. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAXU6VpEJqce
But if the challenger these arms refuse, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAlJltRPtYof
And cannot wield their weight, or dare not use; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAx7PT71kgNY
If great Aeneas and Acestes join 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAP7K7u8JLYL
In his request, these gauntlets I resign; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAdPGmfAun34
Let us with equal arms perform the fight, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAGSaXx8p5M0
And let him leave to fear, since I resign my right." 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAfu7hhQSzdP
This said, Entellus for the strife prepares; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANACajSKzoIcq
Stripp'd of his quilted coat, his body bares; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAt8iPmnUSdk
Compos'd of mighty bones and brawn he stands, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAMETwt08WYj
A goodly tow'ring object on the sands. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA6Se5H4Qqtu
Then just Aeneas equal arms supplied, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA4hCymh4EjS
Which round their shoulders to their wrists they tied. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA8m30gvc0S9
Both on the tiptoe stand, at full extent, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAplqXGHb54w
Their arms aloft, their bodies inly bent; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAL02pYn0gHi
Their heads from aiming blows they bear afar; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA9uIBFZEiFu
With clashing gauntlets then provoke the war. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAZduB7bcZmu
One on his youth and pliant limbs relies; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAx06kJRzmOO
One on his sinews and his giant size. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAA4rOS1opfp
The last is stiff with age, his motion slow; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAOsz5Mr25ON
He heaves for breath, he staggers to and fro, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAMQ091GbbVH
And clouds of issuing smoke his nostrils loudly blow. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAtJVufTopWx
Yet equal in success, they ward, they strike; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA1zPaRrVocP
Their ways are diff'rent, but their art alike. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAOhcTo89BFD
Before, behind, the blows are dealt; around 1075Please respect copyright.PENANALLDc0szcJG
Their hollow sides the rattling thumps resound. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA6OC7b5IjfG
A storm of strokes, well meant, with fury flies, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAlmw69LYozI
And errs about their temples, ears, and eyes. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAGWbzMUaNXq
Nor always errs; for oft the gauntlet draws 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAIMURoweoOk
A sweeping stroke along the crackling jaws. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAhE653Xi0mI
Heavy with age, Entellus stands his ground, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAHyWsG506u4
But with his warping body wards the wound. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAXt3UodcDi3
His hand and watchful eye keep even pace; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAtq9CmtPy5L
While Dares traverses and shifts his place, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAkJBfiM7RB5
And, like a captain who beleaguers round 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAMs7pNVvgfx
Some strong-built castle on a rising ground, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAFyGhGILX6w
Views all th' approaches with observing eyes: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAcv8i5ir6Az
This and that other part in vain he tries, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAFtcNSDMEfx
And more on industry than force relies. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANABjeWzx4D3Z
With hands on high, Entellus threats the foe; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAk3p5DTlCqm
But Dares watch'd the motion from below, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAzf0zNDJFJO
And slipp'd aside, and shunn'd the long descending blow. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAHiKYhuV23z
Entellus wastes his forces on the wind, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAwE64VfV1X9
And, thus deluded of the stroke design'd, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAUxtRvpjUNm
Headlong and heavy fell; his ample breast 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAdQIn3Djo6L
And weighty limbs his ancient mother press'd. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAViWx6RL6xU
So falls a hollow pine, that long had stood 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAXoDhKW9k1Q
On Ida's height, or Erymanthus' wood, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAlYMjnB2IPx
Torn from the roots. The diff'ring nations rise, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAnydTapYk5R
And shouts and mingled murmurs rend the skies, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAz2aFhRR83F
Acestus runs with eager haste, to raise 1075Please respect copyright.PENANArLpJM1XOqx
The fall'n companion of his youthful days. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAO4WfPTCVPo
Dauntless he rose, and to the fight return'd; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAE3CTOTPyjM
With shame his glowing cheeks, his eyes with fury burn'd. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA41SYs5cx8t
Disdain and conscious virtue fir'd his breast, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAAWmcdjfs4C
And with redoubled force his foe he press'd. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANADeGCDIcAAb
He lays on load with either hand, amain, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAfBOzQ0uI7n
And headlong drives the Trojan o'er the plain; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAedXY9BPXuB
Nor stops, nor stays; nor rest nor breath allows; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA0rOoE37rYo
But storms of strokes descend about his brows, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAV1mu1KoWn0
A rattling tempest, and a hail of blows. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA5VYzSndxCG
But now the prince, who saw the wild increase 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAu9F9Gpp4aP
Of wounds, commands the combatants to cease, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANArPsiJe3zcx
And bounds Entellus' wrath, and bids the peace. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAjN5inXVobe
First to the Trojan, spent with toil, he came, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAP1i9CmnhcA
And sooth'd his sorrow for the suffer'd shame. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA7Z3rIPKZjz
"What fury seiz'd my friend? The gods," said he, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAwU6uqjwbno
"To him propitious, and averse to thee, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAtSJ23OYdiG
Have giv'n his arm superior force to thine. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA2lWSjnYC2N
'T is madness to contend with strength divine." 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAU4vKou16nK
The gauntlet fight thus ended, from the shore 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAfFNLrWC9aT
His faithful friends unhappy Dares bore: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAq4goUr0VIg
His mouth and nostrils pour'd a purple flood, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANALHy04RAPLf
And pounded teeth came rushing with his blood. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAJqedREajot
Faintly he stagger'd thro' the hissing throng, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANANWeP1x4bf8
And hung his head, and trail'd his legs along. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA5aWpw66w9e
The sword and casque are carried by his train; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAsA7Qu3mrEe
But with his foe the palm and ox remain. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAi2CRStqGPZ
The champion, then, before Aeneas came, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA6ToyrjGxDs
Proud of his prize, but prouder of his fame: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAyC5JEzV3Ts
"O goddess-born, and you, Dardanian host, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAD7QjIj5IgF
Mark with attention, and forgive my boast; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA7k9qygmkWZ
Learn what I was, by what remains; and know 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAC3VqOgR7dr
From what impending fate you sav'd my foe." 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAi0gMA9ySXD
Sternly he spoke, and then confronts the bull; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAU1pWGIBBaZ
And, on his ample forehead aiming full, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAmqnCLzzoNV
The deadly stroke, descending, pierc'd the skull. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAzbodoh4Nqq
Down drops the beast, nor needs a second wound, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANADcIIvyM1DS
But sprawls in pangs of death, and spurns the ground. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAKKLxQXGUPp
Then, thus: "In Dares' stead I offer this. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAhuapKHnxEK
Eryx, accept a nobler sacrifice; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAt0QWWMiyWS
Take the last gift my wither'd arms can yield: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAnFnU55Wlxi
Thy gauntlets I resign, and here renounce the field." 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAHZPEUWbpDc
This done, Aeneas orders, for the close, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAEgKAUnzdc3
The strife of archers with contending bows. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAtCGSbtYfiB
The mast Sergesthus' shatter'd galley bore 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAjz4aUv7FkB
With his own hands he raises on the shore. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAB4xmh42vB7
A flutt'ring dove upon the top they tie, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAFsoGfYcGU1
The living mark at which their arrows fly. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAXyV2KzCah2
The rival archers in a line advance, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA2e9kU1V5qx
Their turn of shooting to receive from chance. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA8aqfRajVdK
A helmet holds their names; the lots are drawn: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAf8OBx2toXU
On the first scroll was read Hippocoon. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA4c8NwXJXNR
The people shout. Upon the next was found 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAZHPjUsL5Hz
Young Mnestheus, late with naval honors crown'd. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANALEEYaSgvPj
The third contain'd Eurytion's noble name, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAyBRUhSowIT
Thy brother, Pandarus, and next in fame, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAWFpUsbE1y0
Whom Pallas urg'd the treaty to confound, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANARDkUM9VjqI
And send among the Greeks a feather'd wound. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAYnw8zsLJNX
Acestes in the bottom last remain'd, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAdNiet3G2UX
Whom not his age from youthful sports restrain'd. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAhfZ6RM9W8V
Soon all with vigor bend their trusty bows, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAvN3KC8dxHu
And from the quiver each his arrow chose. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAN82NKqwBDF
Hippocoon's was the first: with forceful sway 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAmICVA9RjaR
It flew, and, whizzing, cut the liquid way. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAYBppnynd0u
Fix'd in the mast the feather'd weapon stands: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAFssuNqaCPc
The fearful pigeon flutters in her bands, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA7ZdoooBzLe
And the tree trembled, and the shouting cries 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAHN8tTZQWDI
Of the pleas'd people rend the vaulted skies. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAg1a8uJ0PjL
Then Mnestheus to the head his arrow drove, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA7Tu607pBp6
With lifted eyes, and took his aim above, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAR9lNlWe7ED
But made a glancing shot, and missed the dove; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAZSmOsv5gQA
Yet miss'd so narrow, that he cut the cord 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA2ji9QHJoCV
Which fasten'd by the foot the flitting bird. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAjHdSK9XYvz
The captive thus releas'd, away she flies, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAKdpebSAVGd
And beats with clapping wings the yielding skies. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA4Qd0WnotJ4
His bow already bent, Eurytion stood; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANArqQlYRPtSh
And, having first invok'd his brother god, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAuhpq6X9iC3
His winged shaft with eager haste he sped. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAPbnOQHd4Fj
The fatal message reach'd her as she fled: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANADlbVPaq4rM
She leaves her life aloft; she strikes the ground, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAdDXgoKFLR0
And renders back the weapon in the wound. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA2KOLCQ0Sg5
Acestes, grudging at his lot, remains, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAjMk1TKOrFs
Without a prize to gratify his pains. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAE4VmIaUS0B
Yet, shooting upward, sends his shaft, to show 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAq2uSma29aI
An archer's art, and boast his twanging bow. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAJunjbw9tkW
The feather'd arrow gave a dire portent, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA7XWjhLK67y
And latter augurs judge from this event. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAhcYYQioaES
Chaf'd by the speed, it fir'd; and, as it flew, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA79FuEq1wHv
A trail of following flames ascending drew: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAOQ1Rowb3KW
Kindling they mount, and mark the shiny way; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAwzKDhLHam7
Across the skies as falling meteors play, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAumRw8XLSYI
And vanish into wind, or in a blaze decay. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA15CZw2RP5w
The Trojans and Sicilians wildly stare, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA551xygaMla
And, trembling, turn their wonder into pray'r. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA1yjRdLU0SS
The Dardan prince put on a smiling face, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAgyv5CISKN6
And strain'd Acestes with a close embrace; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA1S4kmviMay
Then, hon'ring him with gifts above the rest, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAUPCWt9975u
Turn'd the bad omen, nor his fears confess'd. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAAZDnRcVS0T
"The gods," said he, "this miracle have wrought, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAxSS3u6yzEs
And order'd you the prize without the lot. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAoDxuiUJNIU
Accept this goblet, rough with figur'd gold, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAYWy1HCOKei
Which Thracian Cisseus gave my sire of old: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA5doy742lFu
This pledge of ancient amity receive, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANApK9luTNuYg
Which to my second sire I justly give." 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAntvBno0nBU
He said, and, with the trumpets' cheerful sound, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAUMOOIHWe7n
Proclaim'd him victor, and with laurel-crown'd. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAXZ8ilrW65M
Nor good Eurytion envied him the prize, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAxEMpZHe7eG
Tho' he transfix'd the pigeon in the skies. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAOm9APpI26I
Who cut the line, with second gifts was grac'd; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAGlP3fr3rQS
The third was his whose arrow pierc'd the mast. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANANTf6fLHcxQ
The chief, before the games were wholly done, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAwq1bytRi7R
Call'd Periphantes, tutor to his son, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANATvL0RINurg
And whisper'd thus: "With speed Ascanius find; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAiSAeaeMOSb
And, if his childish troop be ready join'd, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAnyqbDa0vPg
On horseback let him grace his grandsire's day, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAabqrIdKSTK
And lead his equals arm'd in just array." 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAz1U6tORqTh
He said; and, calling out, the cirque he clears. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANACaOzMZf5Ys
The crowd withdrawn, an open plain appears. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAhKInKoEPAt
And now the noble youths, of form divine, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAc7vD9p4rLB
Advance before their fathers, in a line; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANATI1bl5MXiL
The riders grace the steeds; the steeds with glory shine. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAE4Mh6bRyIt
Thus marching on in military pride, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA20Vds0d0QE
Shouts of applause resound from side to side. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAO73uGyBO9Z
Their casques adorn'd with laurel wreaths they wear, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAOLPRhNC8LN
Each brandishing aloft a cornel spear. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAXpk2FLjx0E
Some at their backs their gilded quivers bore; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAMQvz2IMcAJ
Their chains of burnish'd gold hung down before. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAqrebDiIAgh
Three graceful troops they form'd upon the green; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAFOb2sBzinb
Three graceful leaders at their head were seen; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA7lYlvrKsAi
Twelve follow'd ev'ry chief, and left a space between. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAnIzH7lpcNd
The first young Priam led; a lovely boy, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAmDwzkiWF5n
Whose grandsire was th' unhappy king of Troy; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAYMqZVNYO4o
His race in after times was known to fame, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA61O4k9xkMo
New honors adding to the Latian name; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANABsc3SgRsQ1
And well the royal boy his Thracian steed became. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAjzmG5T5gyT
White were the fetlocks of his feet before, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAFG3XU1oKkh
And on his front a snowy star he bore. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANATYT76bhvs4
Then beauteous Atys, with Iulus bred, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA2OJSaFrrJQ
Of equal age, the second squadron led. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANArhyfofalbn
The last in order, but the first in place, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAJAnHVQZH88
First in the lovely features of his face, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAwy4TReqKid
Rode fair Ascanius on a fiery steed, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAqEueJCBfzh
Queen Dido's gift, and of the Tyrian breed. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAsjXNUD3ecT
Sure coursers for the rest the king ordains, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAHPCCmKP3vs
With golden bits adorn'd, and purple reins. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAyQFMQok1bc
The pleas'd spectators peals of shouts renew, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAv5Iis54KE3
And all the parents in the children view; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAXgrXozbc9Z
Their make, their motions, and their sprightly grace, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAv4iKhcQHPU
And hopes and fears alternate in their face. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAIANVMLJAZD
Th' unfledg'd commanders and their martial train 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAE7uP60PKxv
First make the circuit of the sandy plain 1075Please respect copyright.PENANANCNRyXWzfq
Around their sires, and, at th' appointed sign, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAJy5Kozvkid
Drawn up in beauteous order, form a line. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANATCMwOjYJOE
The second signal sounds, the troop divides 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAD08CHYAH2I
In three distinguish'd parts, with three distinguish'd guides 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAwGzGAq29cI
Again they close, and once again disjoin; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAgLOaGuqNZl
In troop to troop oppos'd, and line to line. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAzK9rp7qkN3
They meet; they wheel; they throw their darts afar 1075Please respect copyright.PENANALa9gfSOeKs
With harmless rage and well-dissembled war. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAVyepoIemne
Then in a round the mingled bodies run: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA4Fn8ozlptQ
Flying they follow, and pursuing shun; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAIZCfrz6yZN
Broken, they break; and, rallying, they renew 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAqeHl5vLVF1
In other forms the military shew. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA6ue9uWDCFe
At last, in order, undiscern'd they join, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAPwA4PrqYwj
And march together in a friendly line. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANALlQCAEened
And, as the Cretan labyrinth of old, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANARlbklFVes6
With wand'ring ways and many a winding fold, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAiHEaRSKpOy
Involv'd the weary feet, without redress, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAoj77O7yCKd
In a round error, which denied recess; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAP9SltRJkFG
So fought the Trojan boys in warlike play, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAzyAi54pQxR
Turn'd and return'd, and still a diff'rent way. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANACODBFRXYdx
Thus dolphins in the deep each other chase 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAUPWBP4pilI
In circles, when they swim around the wat'ry race. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANATJq58J3IHm
This game, these carousels, Ascanius taught; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAns1doFYqiJ
And, building Alba, to the Latins brought; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAfXzRdNYXK6
Shew'd what he learn'd: the Latin sires impart 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAmgmh4pxiEe
To their succeeding sons the graceful art; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAGJOYqB3aru
From these imperial Rome receiv'd the game, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANACtsu6R0869
Which Troy, the youths the Trojan troop, they name. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANALCqpg8M7rL
Thus far the sacred sports they celebrate: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAIzckHtJeq3
But Fortune soon resum'd her ancient hate; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAKMN0dcP1f9
For, while they pay the dead his annual dues, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAU8UXPIiRSN
Those envied rites Saturnian Juno views; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAgRkMA8MnN7
And sends the goddess of the various bow, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANATDQVWrUl4D
To try new methods of revenge below; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAo430Qg9GMB
Supplies the winds to wing her airy way, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAr1uDB1yWB5
Where in the port secure the navy lay. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAWvyBkn9513
Swiftly fair Iris down her arch descends, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANADQLCkClSeT
And, undiscern'd, her fatal voyage ends. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAblM9fGdyhw
She saw the gath'ring crowd; and, gliding thence, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAkFU2ixr7rV
The desart shore, and fleet without defense. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAFIoh9sY0i3
The Trojan matrons, on the sands alone, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAr9J2U3eeHz
With sighs and tears Anchises' death bemoan; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA5dZ1zEuwOJ
Then, turning to the sea their weeping eyes, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAqEBNs2zLD4
Their pity to themselves renews their cries. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAYCmmzgiv6s
"Alas!" said one, "what oceans yet remain 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAp6tCNXWzyu
For us to sail! what labors to sustain!" 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAnHoc5BlYan
All take the word, and, with a gen'ral groan, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAFvG5RR3lV7
Implore the gods for peace, and places of their own. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAhUSMiEqw9O
The goddess, great in mischief, views their pains, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAJZZqwGXLIz
And in a woman's form her heav'nly limbs restrains. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAmgJdG6V4f7
In face and shape old Beroe she became, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAuO6kIodzSQ
Doryclus' wife, a venerable dame, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAupBFcz63Ps
Once blest with riches, and a mother's name. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAZEFGdKARzl
Thus chang'd, amidst the crying crowd she ran, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAU3asaBSsjj
Mix'd with the matrons, and these words began: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAL1FBfmlMng
"O wretched we, whom not the Grecian pow'r, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAu21RlBx586
Nor flames, destroy'd, in Troy's unhappy hour! 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAkEqPBr8VUU
O wretched we, reserv'd by cruel fate, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAE5KPxXh6dZ
Beyond the ruins of the sinking state! 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAOJ9TcoGDWz
Now sev'n revolving years are wholly run, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAeJkF7vKrbl
Since this improsp'rous voyage we begun; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAURGjB2wuro
Since, toss'd from shores to shores, from lands to lands, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAdondAPNKNp
Inhospitable rocks and barren sands, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAewITKYTkZh
Wand'ring in exile thro' the stormy sea, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA7blBzESqZC
We search in vain for flying Italy. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAUKRFwnFcYi
Now cast by fortune on this kindred land, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANArEFi51cHeZ
What should our rest and rising walls withstand, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA6l7ESZc5KZ
Or hinder here to fix our banish'd band? 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA60cGz9pBO3
O country lost, and gods redeem'd in vain, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANALzjzUoglPs
If still in endless exile we remain! 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAox56x6e8s3
Shall we no more the Trojan walls renew, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAXh9Lm6BAjK
Or streams of some dissembled Simois view! 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA60m4kJODOF
Haste, join with me, th' unhappy fleet consume! 1075Please respect copyright.PENANArVkFXfKA6s
Cassandra bids; and I declare her doom. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANANGjGEurNUq
In sleep I saw her; she supplied my hands 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAzlAXXvemuZ
(For this I more than dreamt) with flaming brands: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANARMs2LjuqDC
'With these,' said she, 'these wand'ring ships destroy: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAZ6F38QVMt1
These are your fatal seats, and this your Troy.' 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAoG89Mo9mD9
Time calls you now; the precious hour employ: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANABwRN2bAbcK
Slack not the good presage, while Heav'n inspires 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAmd4He1yXXJ
Our minds to dare, and gives the ready fires. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAxAyZjLJK7R
See! Neptune's altars minister their brands: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANApTUp7HnJrV
The god is pleas'd; the god supplies our hands." 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAxeI4bvswbZ
Then from the pile a flaming fire she drew, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAGProqCYJqh
And, toss'd in air, amidst the galleys threw. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANATHJ53YZ7RW
Wrapp'd in amaze, the matrons wildly stare: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAB5SLb97CpZ
Then Pyrgo, reverenc'd for her hoary hair, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAX2c4K2guMH
Pyrgo, the nurse of Priam's num'rous race: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANARfgyBXcuT8
"No Beroe this, tho' she belies her face! 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAMbpTqRAcGx
What terrors from her frowning front arise! 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAo3AAI7jheX
Behold a goddess in her ardent eyes! 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAogwxSVEA0e
What rays around her heav'nly face are seen! 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAr94LXtKYYI
Mark her majestic voice, and more than mortal mien! 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAtHenvOenHY
Beroe but now I left, whom, pin'd with pain, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAqzQlr5TBvN
Her age and anguish from these rites detain," 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAiHGisbBn2p
She said. The matrons, seiz'd with new amaze, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA5T3NSy3vjP
Roll their malignant eyes, and on the navy gaze. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAV4ckijhjVP
They fear, and hope, and neither part obey: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAgvr4mEs8wH
They hope the fated land, but fear the fatal way. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAsrcOs09bQc
The goddess, having done her task below, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAnDidRQS82z
Mounts up on equal wings, and bends her painted bow. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAlnhU3ZjwED
Struck with the sight, and seiz'd with rage divine, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAFWOIIEuAH3
The matrons prosecute their mad design: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAXDSRiPTXTe
They shriek aloud; they snatch, with impious hands, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAwrSkKv3hrk
The food of altars; fires and flaming brands. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA0rNKQ4gtD4
Green boughs and saplings, mingled in their haste, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA5IVpKLwtnq
And smoking torches, on the ships they cast. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAiien3gnr5Z
The flame, unstopp'd at first, more fury gains, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAcgCKmdw49P
And Vulcan rides at large with loosen'd reins: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAZg3cAfB6k3
Triumphant to the painted sterns he soars, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAztIVCnTTs0
And seizes, in this way, the banks and crackling oars. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAMRyI8feNLW
Eumelus was the first the news to bear, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAHLdcRVrhC6
While yet they crowd the rural theater. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAW6vPaTOkmz
Then, what they hear, is witness'd by their eyes: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA0rO1JIDu2T
A storm of sparkles and of flames arise. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA8OUQq03FSH
Ascanius took th' alarm, while yet he led 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAF8ODfI4Otr
His early warriors on his prancing steed, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA0BLDMAA5IR
And, spurring on, his equals soon o'erpass'd; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAhXJRBaLelV
Nor could his frighted friends reclaim his haste. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAdPac4LbEIx
Soon as the royal youth appear'd in view, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA3sJnXWpjQ3
He sent his voice before him as he flew: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAwi60ennRFp
"What madness moves you, matrons, to destroy 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAjKvojK6O6i
The last remainders of unhappy Troy! 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAx09Kjik4i3
Not hostile fleets, but your own hopes, you burn, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA8ernrG9JJb
And on your friends your fatal fury turn. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANARXScinbvZw
Behold your own Ascanius!" While he said, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAehwP8fJhch
He drew his glitt'ring helmet from his head, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANABK6ij1UiUj
In which the youths to sportful arms he led. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANANTbM4snQhc
By this, Aeneas and his train appear; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAfq2nu9eFBy
And now the women, seiz'd with shame and fear, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAZzCFWnaqpA
Dispers'd, to woods and caverns take their flight, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAWL2H5Epknr
Abhor their actions, and avoid the light; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA8U0gCQ6OXs
Their friends acknowledge, and their error find, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAtSho7PaB5c
And shake the goddess from their alter'd mind. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAk4FtN76B9M
Not so the raging fires their fury cease, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAyqptkDhXP8
But, lurking in the seams, with seeming peace, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA0vMXCOYYkr
Work on their way amid the smold'ring tow, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANARUspMPcIQ5
Sure in destruction, but in motion slow. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAXpNOD34Mf6
The silent plague thro' the green timber eats, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAYchlnJwPHe
And vomits out a tardy flame by fits. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAPumHJZVpZE
Down to the keels, and upward to the sails, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA76yd4SVqRK
The fire descends, or mounts, but still prevails; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAlqzbdKnpQE
Nor buckets pour'd, nor strength of human hand, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA12NEpc63wA
Can the victorious element withstand. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAkqEZ2JqMQU
The pious hero rends his robe, and throws 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAKsP2PVQqP5
To heav'n his hands, and with his hands his vows. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANALEmn2kPM9i
"O Jove," he cried, "if pray'rs can yet have place; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA97K29bUOHN
If thou abhorr'st not all the Dardan race; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAH6j6wWDcI3
If any spark of pity still remain; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAoPYqVjpgAI
If gods are gods, and not invok'd in vain; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAxOBTxx4uOO
Yet spare the relics of the Trojan train! 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAMyiNG28s8z
Yet from the flames our burning vessels free, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA4jIMwpNxg4
Or let thy fury fall alone on me! 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA6J1ncrazhg
At this devoted head thy thunder throw, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA9mW9RQtOi3
And send the willing sacrifice below!" 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA4dAQmixABI
Scarce had he said, when southern storms arise: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAWfIdk8wIMP
From pole to pole the forky lightning flies; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAW8ufyvqYyi
Loud rattling shakes the mountains and the plain; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANARrnFBSgfRr
Heav'n bellies downward, and descends in rain. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA8VFcQnPZ3W
Whole sheets of water from the clouds are sent, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANApVfCmau4mb
Which, hissing thro' the planks, the flames prevent, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAuemeSGS3px
And stop the fiery pest. Four ships alone 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA8k96N6qijE
Burn to the waist, and for the fleet atone. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAC60NmPIKyS
But doubtful thoughts the hero's heart divide; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAX8uKroHYat
If he should still in Sicily reside, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAML04FYzdeX
Forgetful of his fates, or tempt the main, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAQo8w0QVpKu
In hope the promis'd Italy to gain. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAPN8uEEjj0u
Then Nautes, old and wise, to whom alone 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAX2b4AIOFts
The will of Heav'n by Pallas was foreshown; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA4ySPHt911I
Vers'd in portents, experienc'd, and inspir'd 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA6hwSgx75uR
To tell events, and what the fates requir'd; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAA8wYqaOIjb
Thus while he stood, to neither part inclin'd, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA3HmhNFlV0f
With cheerful words reliev'd his lab'ring mind: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAXh4u0LyOHR
"O goddess-born, resign'd in ev'ry state, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAinoNAZ8WIk
With patience bear, with prudence push your fate. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAs8hAkStp2N
By suff'ring well, our Fortune we subdue; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAmwdsM7LPSp
Fly when she frowns, and, when she calls, pursue. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA5myyE0XZYG
Your friend Acestes is of Trojan kind; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAEWlPeEVnvf
To him disclose the secrets of your mind: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAqKiMfHhJoh
Trust in his hands your old and useless train; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANACxMnvhyXAq
Too num'rous for the ships which yet remain: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAU4G8vE79XQ
The feeble, old, indulgent of their ease, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAQCEbQh0FTy
The dames who dread the dangers of the seas, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAzYk2CLvQ5a
With all the dastard crew, who dare not stand 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAsRcKO1g3sT
The shock of battle with your foes by land. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANATlSx0Wkd9W
Here you may build a common town for all, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAdrgv6MBZQx
And, from Acestes' name, Acesta call." 1075Please respect copyright.PENANArHvSPqXZAy
The reasons, with his friend's experience join'd, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAz900mJJF6f
Encourag'd much, but more disturb'd his mind. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA4YEASwpUiK
'T was dead of night; when to his slumb'ring eyes 1075Please respect copyright.PENANApgEjSQQl6k
His father's shade descended from the skies, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAG5cv71WpWS
And thus he spoke: "O more than vital breath, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAATtaXGK2pE
Lov'd while I liv'd, and dear ev'n after death; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA8VC26hwFKL
O son, in various toils and troubles toss'd, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAg5IsnTc6YB
The King of Heav'n employs my careful ghost 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAflWGa9U0Lg
On his commands: the god, who sav'd from fire 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAeFggOvW43d
Your flaming fleet, and heard your just desire. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAK5DfbNM0G3
The wholesome counsel of your friend receive, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANATQEMeczUKz
And here the coward train and woman leave: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANABO0NwtE4F8
The chosen youth, and those who nobly dare, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAu6wlROnZ2k
Transport, to tempt the dangers of the war. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA09YSYvJVuy
The stern Italians will their courage try; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAuWTFOyhkfH
Rough are their manners, and their minds are high. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANASQU9WktQze
But first to Pluto's palace you shall go, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA3uZ2PGYKl6
And seek my shade among the blest below: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAZRHL8TOErY
For not with impious ghosts my soul remains, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA4IptqNNeF9
Nor suffers with the damn'd perpetual pains, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAd20nvQ67aL
But breathes the living air of soft Elysian plains. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANArfLQ72FB9U
The chaste Sibylla shall your steps convey, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANADza8eVw9bq
And blood of offer'd victims free the way. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAtwDrnVti37
There shall you know what realms the gods assign, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAUE7ObJJcfA
And learn the fates and fortunes of your line. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANASyL28rR8b6
But now, farewell! I vanish with the night, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAUSbrbhL0rq
And feel the blast of heav'n's approaching light." 1075Please respect copyright.PENANANokFYJCVjP
He said, and mix'd with shades, and took his airy flight. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAvcErVZ8Crh
"Whither so fast?" the filial duty cried; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAQmKNnh6yVC
"And why, ah why, the wish'd embrace denied?" 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAlYYdPg8SgC
He said, and rose; as holy zeal inspires, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANABm3Udy73hS
He rakes hot embers, and renews the fires; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAFw2YJRHe3c
His country gods and Vesta then adores 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAlfQCjz9yaQ
With cakes and incense, and their aid implores. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAWyK61l8MHB
Next, for his friends and royal host he sent, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA5nAT7Km6s1
Reveal'd his vision, and the gods' intent, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAd1e68Tl47q
With his own purpose. All, without delay, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAcFshclPkKo
The will of Jove, and his desires obey. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANATVBQ4j7ake
They list with women each degenerate name, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAGcdnD9gwng
Who dares not hazard life for future fame. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAmNBMPawMyg
These they cashier: the brave remaining few, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANABUvX7Ketza
Oars, banks, and cables, half consum'd, renew. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANASy4kRYz7AX
The prince designs a city with the plow; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAZZtMm2Sw1O
The lots their sev'ral tenements allow. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAQ5Kxy9OXbr
This part is nam'd from Ilium, that from Troy, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA2RwsURokah
And the new king ascends the throne with joy; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA91Xs3GlHzF
A chosen senate from the people draws; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAOPIXUu5FHJ
Appoints the judges, and ordains the laws. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAYOPiJRvB3j
Then, on the top of Eryx, they begin 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA40OvDQyVI0
A rising temple to the Paphian queen. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAfmWV3z8l3c
Anchises, last, is honor'd as a god; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAopW74obxZ8
A priest is added, annual gifts bestow'd, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAQpvevpY9DJ
And groves are planted round his blest abode. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAMBMcupqWH9
Nine days they pass in feasts, their temples crown'd; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAnrv4qier7B
And fumes of incense in the fanes abound. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAZ9JkgQ21DJ
Then from the south arose a gentle breeze 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAaKjChEuFhp
That curl'd the smoothness of the glassy seas; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAAxRhChyR4J
The rising winds a ruffling gale afford, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAtfmQWzQZAV
And call the merry mariners aboard. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAgaqB1no8wb
Now loud laments along the shores resound, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAcfp03GYjbs
Of parting friends in close embraces bound. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANABnOXFktfZ0
The trembling women, the degenerate train, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAPLQuZAq1Nl
Who shunn'd the frightful dangers of the main, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANALXGKAH2trf
Ev'n those desire to sail, and take their share 1075Please respect copyright.PENANALjbtApKIvL
Of the rough passage and the promis'd war: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAWGHS9IhuFH
Whom good Aeneas cheers, and recommends 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA3THA7TR68X
To their new master's care his fearful friends. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAda8o9mnU5G
On Eryx's altars three fat calves he lays; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAaejgdTwZwr
A lamb new-fallen to the stormy seas; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAbT5CZbbNQE
Then slips his haulsers, and his anchors weighs. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANApgP6LttkuI
High on the deck the godlike hero stands, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAT25JavVNqP
With olive crown'd, a charger in his hands; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAtVaiCdORLD
Then cast the reeking entrails in the brine, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAOjPyiC5YVi
And pour'd the sacrifice of purple wine. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAcDE9ku3LqU
Fresh gales arise; with equal strokes they vie, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAg6IINrKN0K
And brush the buxom seas, and o'er the billows fly. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAiYsyInnasf
Meantime the mother goddess, full of fears, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAnKeyFNhaAH
To Neptune thus address'd, with tender tears: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAL5gLKWpRte
"The pride of Jove's imperious queen, the rage, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANALDQzMT7o4T
The malice which no suff'rings can assuage, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAe4IeMaPZsI
Compel me to these pray'rs; since neither fate, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAkD9rUk293j
Nor time, nor pity, can remove her hate: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAeaiqb8798n
Ev'n Jove is thwarted by his haughty wife; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAl8hdzqE3Uc
Still vanquish'd, yet she still renews the strife. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANApqOKie0Pu6
As if 't were little to consume the town 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAQF5S7adJYF
Which aw'd the world, and wore th' imperial crown, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAy5YwXZwcVj
She prosecutes the ghost of Troy with pains, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAhPINMuYjGh
And gnaws, ev'n to the bones, the last remains. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAyr6GHvRDE9
Let her the causes of her hatred tell; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAeRSUffLlw1
But you can witness its effects too well. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAxC72szoosb
You saw the storm she rais'd on Libyan floods, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA8XAITolyy0
That mix'd the mounting billows with the clouds; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAd6ABPclKrs
When, bribing Aeolus, she shook the main, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANANhZEyVDmCR
And mov'd rebellion in your wat'ry reign. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAU820pu70tY
With fury she possess'd the Dardan dames, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAifkyaD8iGa
To burn their fleet with execrable flames, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAfm5mOc4pz4
And forc'd Aeneas, when his ships were lost, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAqhmbYuBRvO
To leave his foll'wers on a foreign coast. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAESpbdgWH5M
For what remains, your godhead I implore, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA3RijZRqc4x
And trust my son to your protecting pow'r. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAZF8Zed0M3X
If neither Jove's nor Fate's decree withstand, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAD35rNECBDu
Secure his passage to the Latian land." 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA9QgJukowmf
Then thus the mighty Ruler of the Main: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAUvsY0Ei1CN
"What may not Venus hope from Neptune's reign? 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAymKcYTm6Do
My kingdom claims your birth; my late defense 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAMxJjv6uKhf
Of your indanger'd fleet may claim your confidence. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAVOliVmTuQ9
Nor less by land than sea my deeds declare 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAS8udfj941h
How much your lov'd Aeneas is my care. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAhQAhTzPYDr
Thee, Xanthus, and thee, Simois, I attest. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA4r8ueHkP2m
Your Trojan troops when proud Achilles press'd, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANADuCrr7DtNi
And drove before him headlong on the plain, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA3eYRutFxuI
And dash'd against the walls the trembling train; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAFuF8qz17hc
When floods were fill'd with bodies of the slain; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAn8lI3tlQ1j
When crimson Xanthus, doubtful of his way, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAq3ma90ocua
Stood up on ridges to behold the sea; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA91jgiEcIQw
(New heaps came tumbling in, and chok'd his way;) 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAbRVCTiuMVc
When your Aeneas fought, but fought with odds 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA4g8tnNjafK
Of force unequal, and unequal gods; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAMWVG7eaEEZ
I spread a cloud before the victor's sight, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANArNEQooDq7f
Sustain'd the vanquish'd, and secur'd his flight; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA177SLQr1sU
Ev'n then secur'd him, when I sought with joy 1075Please respect copyright.PENANArciMkPKCQk
The vow'd destruction of ungrateful Troy. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAkfdwJ6lUIc
My will's the same: fair goddess, fear no more, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAdap7h7WldS
Your fleet shall safely gain the Latian shore; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAsbVvPCGIF3
Their lives are giv'n; one destin'd head alone 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAJwUwGqw2ce
Shall perish, and for multitudes atone." 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAIebkUDG4Dh
Thus having arm'd with hopes her anxious mind, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANADrJYkcuOfF
His finny team Saturnian Neptune join'd, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAOFnzlPc1i6
Then adds the foamy bridle to their jaws, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAGjb8NAYZds
And to the loosen'd reins permits the laws. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAerpFKndq22
High on the waves his azure car he guides; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAotPZaLcrNn
Its axles thunder, and the sea subsides, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAVkgb4P6xCX
And the smooth ocean rolls her silent tides. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAK11p79vxF9
The tempests fly before their father's face, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAX10wSrI1Q1
Trains of inferior gods his triumph grace, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAN9jMcKyPzB
And monster whales before their master play, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAdkBMBAquff
And choirs of Tritons crowd the wat'ry way. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA00O92D5EZa
The marshal'd pow'rs in equal troops divide 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAYlNYJBjq72
To right and left; the gods his better side 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAW68aZbtPrV
Inclose, and on the worse the Nymphs and Nereids ride. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAlFMr6ETHPp
Now smiling hope, with sweet vicissitude, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANALAdzqkOTKZ
Within the hero's mind his joys renew'd. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAjDSJRXDWq1
He calls to raise the masts, the sheets display; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAdcUf1Hq3D1
The cheerful crew with diligence obey; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANArcyYJhxLpU
They scud before the wind, and sail in open sea. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAy5nMI09ftF
Ahead of all the master pilot steers; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAVpNcwD57Uq
And, as he leads, the following navy veers. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAIbXnfIJ3Z1
The steeds of Night had travel'd half the sky, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAM4Se94DIlq
The drowsy rowers on their benches lie, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAzuprAPOFzy
When the soft God of Sleep, with easy flight, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAmJHQwj0guo
Descends, and draws behind a trail of light. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANARe5jPni4uk
Thou, Palinurus, art his destin'd prey; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAyra9AYRCVN
To thee alone he takes his fatal way. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAkkiSjZ7AYh
Dire dreams to thee, and iron sleep, he bears; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAMK0GaeLrQz
And, lighting on thy prow, the form of Phorbas wears. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA85RRBMdFpo
Then thus the traitor god began his tale: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAdbPfXRiv13
"The winds, my friend, inspire a pleasing gale; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAMIGDVEie5p
The ships, without thy care, securely sail. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAhtIzCY1n52
Now steal an hour of sweet repose; and I 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAey1m3IYl3t
Will take the rudder and thy room supply." 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA1vUXcRsDGi
To whom the yawning pilot, half asleep: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAFCcqcqQFCn
"Me dost thou bid to trust the treach'rous deep, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAyqinVcA3BD
The harlot smiles of her dissembling face, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAddrC3iEa5P
And to her faith commit the Trojan race? 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAXt5XPmYAFG
Shall I believe the Siren South again, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAhqXcyKFCCR
And, oft betray'd, not know the monster main?" 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAdBALJ18pqY
He said: his fasten'd hands the rudder keep, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAATEkZSZ9n1
And, fix'd on heav'n, his eyes repel invading sleep. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAxX76RsJBcf
The god was wroth, and at his temples threw 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAQE8bD68xFG
A branch in Lethe dipp'd, and drunk with Stygian dew: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAZ6z4KpEL9F
The pilot, vanquish'd by the pow'r divine, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA1E2o9dW9oV
Soon clos'd his swimming eyes, and lay supine. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAtLxpjB9nTZ
Scarce were his limbs extended at their length, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAGu54ZmaITK
The god, insulting with superior strength, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAmt9Or3lhe5
Fell heavy on him, plung'd him in the sea, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAkaVp5wtPGY
And, with the stern, the rudder tore away. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAdg3bsRI3yD
Headlong he fell, and, struggling in the main, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAigf7mKdygZ
Cried out for helping hands, but cried in vain. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANACmzrxEc5Mb
The victor daemon mounts obscure in air, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANArr5UNJyq92
While the ship sails without the pilot's care. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAf8vgQaqs1f
On Neptune's faith the floating fleet relies; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAaDi65mp0NS
But what the man forsook, the god supplies, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAHeQNgxxjyI
And o'er the dang'rous deep secure the navy flies; 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAEoBzABwzXz
Glides by the Sirens' cliffs, a shelfy coast, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAEldXC2jSs5
Long infamous for ships and sailors lost, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAqrYobccEx5
And white with bones. Th' impetuous ocean roars, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAwx9W3sRYtU
And rocks rebellow from the sounding shores. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAf2oaeM7Z4J
The watchful hero felt the knocks, and found 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAZkMuJWGcOU
The tossing vessel sail'd on shoaly ground. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAtA9pqxtTUY
Sure of his pilot's loss, he takes himself 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAw9mJalcmSH
The helm, and steers aloof, and shuns the shelf. 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA5JU6x1qzga
Inly he griev'd, and, groaning from the breast, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAEggaeBirMG
Deplor'd his death; and thus his pain express'd: 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAo546B8iI8c
"For faith repos'd on seas, and on the flatt'ring sky, 1075Please respect copyright.PENANAZG4brD4m0J
Thy naked corpse is doom'd on shores unknown to lie." 1075Please respect copyright.PENANA2Du6lnp95p
