Meantime the Trojan cuts his wat'ry way, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA9fzSGnePxR
Fix'd on his voyage, thro' the curling sea; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAF3QOuLGroW
Then, casting back his eyes, with dire amaze, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAeMy2QioC0U
Sees on the Punic shore the mounting blaze. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAzjnfQLlWSu
The cause unknown; yet his presaging mind 877Please respect copyright.PENANAg6PHaxgUNH
The fate of Dido from the fire divin'd; 877Please respect copyright.PENANArdhW2RB2oa
He knew the stormy souls of womankind, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAv5nu7LMDcY
What secret springs their eager passions move, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAnmD0mNbiPY
How capable of death for injur'd love. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAZGrC2VlbCu
Dire auguries from hence the Trojans draw; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAbIDtXUdgsd
Till neither fires nor shining shores they saw. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAHPpIY6j3nX
Now seas and skies their prospect only bound; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAp7ObimqRb6
An empty space above, a floating field around. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAialunewg3B
But soon the heav'ns with shadows were o'erspread; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA4tjKtxD5Fn
A swelling cloud hung hov'ring o'er their head: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAmMe5FurRPN
Livid it look'd, the threat'ning of a storm: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAD8HRRgfXbW
Then night and horror ocean's face deform. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAXjJMpz3dq7
The pilot, Palinurus, cried aloud: 877Please respect copyright.PENANA3r4cMrNcPI
"What gusts of weather from that gath'ring cloud 877Please respect copyright.PENANApFWlNKm3LN
My thoughts presage! Ere yet the tempest roars, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAFXlx3GoiKV
Stand to your tackle, mates, and stretch your oars; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAO3acJyNYjY
Contract your swelling sails, and luff to wind." 877Please respect copyright.PENANAX0GjFQZ2cS
The frighted crew perform the task assign'd. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAcPy3cPVh2d
Then, to his fearless chief: "Not Heav'n," said he, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAOf3xU03nAv
"Tho' Jove himself should promise Italy, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAgIx4H4Gtee
Can stem the torrent of this raging sea. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAKs7N8R8vqK
Mark how the shifting winds from west arise, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAzIrkG9JpEp
And what collected night involves the skies! 877Please respect copyright.PENANA1oaoQfaGsg
Nor can our shaken vessels live at sea, 877Please respect copyright.PENANArySQD7j5eb
Much less against the tempest force their way. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA3qDcnReKcK
'T is fate diverts our course, and fate we must obey. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAfjZlWCJ1Nn
Not far from hence, if I observ'd aright 877Please respect copyright.PENANA3si7y6NRG2
The southing of the stars, and polar light, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAU6zAjkFepB
Sicilia lies, whose hospitable shores 877Please respect copyright.PENANAxEI7qUlLm7
In safety we may reach with struggling oars." 877Please respect copyright.PENANAFmkY3rFQ1h
Aeneas then replied: "Too sure I find 877Please respect copyright.PENANAqYgpEHolt2
We strive in vain against the seas and wind: 877Please respect copyright.PENANA9kEkE1sIMw
Now shift your sails; what place can please me more 877Please respect copyright.PENANAYdhFwAVaOq
Than what you promise, the Sicilian shore, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAurgtDqVSM4
Whose hallow'd earth Anchises' bones contains, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA76WUdf4Foe
And where a prince of Trojan lineage reigns?" 877Please respect copyright.PENANA9YDTX5Iqgr
The course resolv'd, before the western wind 877Please respect copyright.PENANAGhpL8Tma3G
They scud amain, and make the port assign'd. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAl6dWDk59io
Meantime Acestes, from a lofty stand, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAXMG24VUVtF
Beheld the fleet descending on the land; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAaRLV3xpDuL
And, not unmindful of his ancient race, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAbC9NAmylyz
Down from the cliff he ran with eager pace, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAvbk5jFpda6
And held the hero in a strict embrace. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA3pzKP922gh
Of a rough Libyan bear the spoils he wore, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAT0XRJBwFgV
And either hand a pointed jav'lin bore. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA2c1IZlmhpS
His mother was a dame of Dardan blood; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAtMeeDmpRX0
His sire Crinisus, a Sicilian flood. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAEcrc4Qb6Ko
He welcomes his returning friends ashore 877Please respect copyright.PENANA0JXKkAN42l
With plenteous country cates and homely store. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAJOnKNjZklW
Now, when the following morn had chas'd away 877Please respect copyright.PENANA7gR7leNCwu
The flying stars, and light restor'd the day, 877Please respect copyright.PENANASSNJ8KmhXp
Aeneas call'd the Trojan troops around, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAw5EuSYO5r1
And thus bespoke them from a rising ground: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAMrfgnE2RGh
"Offspring of heav'n, divine Dardanian race! 877Please respect copyright.PENANAFRzejiX6iX
The sun, revolving thro' th' ethereal space, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAlnY16omlle
The shining circle of the year has fill'd, 877Please respect copyright.PENANApMrHBsBhd3
Since first this isle my father's ashes held: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAujZrjziFvZ
And now the rising day renews the year; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAcI0pEuc5ee
A day for ever sad, for ever dear. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA6xs42Kjymm
This would I celebrate with annual games, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAnhS4VLYekD
With gifts on altars pil'd, and holy flames, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAxnYvh2M5qr
Tho' banish'd to Gaetulia's barren sands, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA8UElSznZZ1
Caught on the Grecian seas, or hostile lands: 877Please respect copyright.PENANA9MFw8wwXfp
But since this happy storm our fleet has driv'n 877Please respect copyright.PENANA8a8tQMPlqm
(Not, as I deem, without the will of Heav'n) 877Please respect copyright.PENANAzoESwFMTWo
Upon these friendly shores and flow'ry plains, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAXTxfuAK30C
Which hide Anchises and his blest remains, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAukY12eSetk
Let us with joy perform his honors due, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAqEeX9zPrXd
And pray for prosp'rous winds, our voyage to renew; 877Please respect copyright.PENANANjxF37t5GZ
Pray, that in towns and temples of our own, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAbZ216YkAYb
The name of great Anchises may be known, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAh2eFrfFuQr
And yearly games may spread the gods' renown. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA3g9vsirMaF
Our sports Acestes, of the Trojan race, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAE7HJfgbZjI
With royal gifts ordain'd, is pleas'd to grace: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAmie07uP1wQ
Two steers on ev'ry ship the king bestows; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAOsPKbJAmm1
His gods and ours shall share your equal vows. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAM1mhh7FJkF
Besides, if, nine days hence, the rosy morn 877Please respect copyright.PENANAJLimBhEJM3
Shall with unclouded light the skies adorn, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAiXYVCWaQEJ
That day with solemn sports I mean to grace: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAydRmgEZxf0
Light galleys on the seas shall run a wat'ry race; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAIpLq8MNpGY
Some shall in swiftness for the goal contend, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA5F7j2iB6Lc
And others try the twanging bow to bend; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAqpI2iv45iB
The strong, with iron gauntlets arm'd, shall stand 877Please respect copyright.PENANATxcL72E6NW
Oppos'd in combat on the yellow sand. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAB71IJufLj7
Let all be present at the games prepar'd, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA5hiLcbkXxZ
And joyful victors wait the just reward. 877Please respect copyright.PENANASvTcdOkYV9
But now assist the rites, with garlands crown'd." 877Please respect copyright.PENANABakywnXBLt
He said, and first his brows with myrtle bound. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA3DOupIls8d
Then Helymus, by his example led, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAAoCerxpafI
And old Acestes, each adorn'd his head; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAg3Kvi7Ul0J
Thus young Ascanius, with a sprightly grace, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAQW9QOCYARM
His temples tied, and all the Trojan race. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA6GCJPRhFTy
Aeneas then advanc'd amidst the train, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAuFkimJCunc
By thousands follow'd thro' the flow'ry plain, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAWE85TgmiSg
To great Anchises' tomb; which when he found, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAfQ70yNZaQW
He pour'd to Bacchus, on the hallow'd ground, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAUq6vx3yLyc
Two bowls of sparkling wine, of milk two more, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA0XqC3MR2LI
And two (from offer'd bulls) of purple gore, 877Please respect copyright.PENANATjNxKrbVFc
With roses then the sepulcher he strow'd 877Please respect copyright.PENANAwCxdht0fdD
And thus his father's ghost bespoke aloud: 877Please respect copyright.PENANA3AuzxnKHFo
"Hail, O ye holy manes! hail again, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAoNXx99ccSP
Paternal ashes, now review'd in vain! 877Please respect copyright.PENANAQKKDwVVlAT
The gods permitted not, that you, with me, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAN1wKHJBODt
Should reach the promis'd shores of Italy, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAZJVsbRA1DF
Or Tiber's flood, what flood soe'er it be." 877Please respect copyright.PENANAUa9heLGiuj
Scarce had he finish'd, when, with speckled pride, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAkX7plN14lL
A serpent from the tomb began to glide; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAppGsNNFDcb
His hugy bulk on sev'n high volumes roll'd; 877Please respect copyright.PENANABCfRW6ij69
Blue was his breadth of back, but streak'd with scaly gold: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAEmRT9rz3xJ
Thus riding on his curls, he seem'd to pass 877Please respect copyright.PENANASxMglufm7S
A rolling fire along, and singe the grass. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAX63Kz0HsaF
More various colors thro' his body run, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAyHq8KTt3CH
Than Iris when her bow imbibes the sun. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAwaIHsK3Ntk
Betwixt the rising altars, and around, 877Please respect copyright.PENANATbzbMd4LkX
The sacred monster shot along the ground; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAACN3Gdjo9R
With harmless play amidst the bowls he pass'd, 877Please respect copyright.PENANATzv8bsWAB4
And with his lolling tongue assay'd the taste: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAxL2HcIIepA
Thus fed with holy food, the wondrous guest 877Please respect copyright.PENANAVlDhsjak2p
Within the hollow tomb retir'd to rest. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAoSsQE9Tq10
The pious prince, surpris'd at what he view'd, 877Please respect copyright.PENANASqZYqTgUI2
The fun'ral honors with more zeal renew'd, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAyPqtWAcsZm
Doubtful if this place's genius were, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA87dDwZnPdB
Or guardian of his father's sepulcher. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAb0jyGxofd5
Five sheep, according to the rites, he slew; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAz3yi9eHzM6
As many swine, and steers of sable hue; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAXxPK43NPqL
New gen'rous wine he from the goblets pour'd. 877Please respect copyright.PENANALGNHTzP8Ur
And call'd his father's ghost, from hell restor'd. 877Please respect copyright.PENANApGD6mGeQeT
The glad attendants in long order come, 877Please respect copyright.PENANASXxPoyOG93
Off'ring their gifts at great Anchises' tomb: 877Please respect copyright.PENANACaaaaRSsep
Some add more oxen: some divide the spoil; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA9R2EXXSutY
Some place the chargers on the grassy soil; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAZMRyVVc1R4
Some blow the fires, and off entrails broil. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAsn9bUGhRzc
Now came the day desir'd. The skies were bright 877Please respect copyright.PENANAWCiaJxyyZv
With rosy luster of the rising light: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAhNa420IqMW
The bord'ring people, rous'd by sounding fame 877Please respect copyright.PENANATA7WIb7A8K
Of Trojan feasts and great Acestes' name, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAuaqDoOzAaG
The crowded shore with acclamations fill, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAekJtI4sBPm
Part to behold, and part to prove their skill. 877Please respect copyright.PENANATYmtlzYdcV
And first the gifts in public view they place, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAVGXEqk7KG8
Green laurel wreaths, and palm, the victors' grace: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAGc7VaAE8af
Within the circle, arms and tripods lie, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAdMTL7Zms2L
Ingots of gold and silver, heap'd on high, 877Please respect copyright.PENANARmOHMIA2R2
And vests embroider'd, of the Tyrian dye. 877Please respect copyright.PENANALcFKCQcTHI
The trumpet's clangor then the feast proclaims, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAZrwRnomurV
And all prepare for their appointed games. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAtA17SI1aKD
Four galleys first, which equal rowers bear, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA7pWeoDncqr
Advancing, in the wat'ry lists appear. 877Please respect copyright.PENANARqim22pEh8
The speedy Dolphin, that outstrips the wind, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAjT0KM7bGn9
Bore Mnestheus, author of the Memmian kind: 877Please respect copyright.PENANADAm5MlX8cd
Gyas the vast Chimaera's bulk commands, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAFoZmwguKm9
Which rising, like a tow'ring city stands; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAhEUaXWCAtu
Three Trojans tug at ev'ry lab'ring oar; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAjV33S3NDV2
Three banks in three degrees the sailors bore; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAoODxFP6SDM
Beneath their sturdy strokes the billows roar. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAxuSIejXztB
Sergesthus, who began the Sergian race, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA0q6mYpo3Vf
In the great Centaur took the leading place; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAComGMgxsLT
Cloanthus on the sea-green Scylla stood, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAQxwWJI3VGF
From whom Cluentius draws his Trojan blood. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAPlrTBB4CBu
Far in the sea, against the foaming shore, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAcpmwX1etT9
There stands a rock: the raging billows roar 877Please respect copyright.PENANASbYcld7nth
Above his head in storms; but, when 't is clear, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAc4NaTYV6bS
Uncurl their ridgy backs, and at his foot appear. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAB0a1AafT3w
In peace below the gentle waters run; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAf0t1GMJJDp
The cormorants above lie basking in the sun. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAXr0ArSOnbC
On this the hero fix'd an oak in sight, 877Please respect copyright.PENANACUh68Crxcz
The mark to guide the mariners aright. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA17fWzytcDf
To bear with this, the seamen stretch their oars; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAm7I9LLuVjN
Then round the rock they steer, and seek the former shores. 877Please respect copyright.PENANASb067iJ6O2
The lots decide their place. Above the rest, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA1mmT85Vtcm
Each leader shining in his Tyrian vest; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA4mn38vlUvW
The common crew with wreaths of poplar boughs 877Please respect copyright.PENANAQChH1SVgAA
Their temples crown, and shade their sweaty brows: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAuW8Bum6VI9
Besmear'd with oil, their naked shoulders shine. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA7gvfHvNbYr
All take their seats, and wait the sounding sign: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAFj3lrDksUY
They gripe their oars; and ev'ry panting breast 877Please respect copyright.PENANA6DH3IC44iC
Is rais'd by turns with hope, by turns with fear depress'd. 877Please respect copyright.PENANABzel0BR7Ku
The clangor of the trumpet gives the sign; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAzUUKF4NJLS
At once they start, advancing in a line: 877Please respect copyright.PENANApOnWgP9j42
With shouts the sailors rend the starry skies; 877Please respect copyright.PENANArjaV4z5W7k
Lash'd with their oars, the smoky billows rise; 877Please respect copyright.PENANArlREefVeL3
Sparkles the briny main, and the vex'd ocean fries. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAGIu1oJ5ieu
Exact in time, with equal strokes they row: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAGXJVGKNOfo
At once the brushing oars and brazen prow 877Please respect copyright.PENANAxqZAqvqgTt
Dash up the sandy waves, and ope the depths below. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAdxqib79AJy
Not fiery coursers, in a chariot race, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAOKnDeMea8D
Invade the field with half so swift a pace; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAcq6a56Kf6e
Not the fierce driver with more fury lends 877Please respect copyright.PENANA6QJB9p3YBl
The sounding lash, and, ere the stroke descends, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAxSSPlXlsu4
Low to the wheels his pliant body bends. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAJrKMsEkhdB
The partial crowd their hopes and fears divide, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAArqzY0w4UF
And aid with eager shouts the favor'd side. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAnHw3J7msAv
Cries, murmurs, clamors, with a mixing sound, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAH0Fyic9vgv
From woods to woods, from hills to hills rebound. 877Please respect copyright.PENANARq8XsYglg2
Amidst the loud applauses of the shore, 877Please respect copyright.PENANARgbIZVKpSO
Gyas outstripp'd the rest, and sprung before: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAnoEq4OQsUz
Cloanthus, better mann'd, pursued him fast, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA7qIavdmkcg
But his o'er-masted galley check'd his haste. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAW1raPPf3zw
The Centaur and the Dolphin brush the brine 877Please respect copyright.PENANAyd1N6WU0SJ
With equal oars, advancing in a line; 877Please respect copyright.PENANANkfHgXfQVd
And now the mighty Centaur seems to lead, 877Please respect copyright.PENANALhR4v1tRnl
And now the speedy Dolphin gets ahead; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA39f72SFIyr
Now board to board the rival vessels row, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAYktmwyr6Og
The billows lave the skies, and ocean groans below. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAUnDDXIQSAA
They reach'd the mark. Proud Gyas and his train 877Please respect copyright.PENANAkC8MNff1cf
In triumph rode, the victors of the main; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAA7Jsm93hM8
But, steering round, he charg'd his pilot stand 877Please respect copyright.PENANAqayA6Rhd9d
More close to shore, and skim along the sand- 877Please respect copyright.PENANAQsF19TMaYS
"Let others bear to sea!" Menoetes heard; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAm5pbdlsdOU
But secret shelves too cautiously he fear'd, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAt1qHtGGXCb
And, fearing, sought the deep; and still aloof he steer'd. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAgyon0frwS1
With louder cries the captain call'd again: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAyYiusXqxM5
"Bear to the rocky shore, and shun the main." 877Please respect copyright.PENANA9qvyoNTWqO
He spoke, and, speaking, at his stern he saw 877Please respect copyright.PENANApIwbGqHWzv
The bold Cloanthus near the shelvings draw. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAShxfJbCjWQ
Betwixt the mark and him the Scylla stood, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAbedzM0JTef
And in a closer compass plow'd the flood. 877Please respect copyright.PENANADW6zVJ3736
He pass'd the mark; and, wheeling, got before: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAbyWf0Aykfw
Gyas blasphem'd the gods, devoutly swore, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAfErgCqnuJk
Cried out for anger, and his hair he tore. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA7cz019wXaU
Mindless of others' lives (so high was grown 877Please respect copyright.PENANADpDXYhzSJI
His rising rage) and careless of his own, 877Please respect copyright.PENANASwlZqGHLn1
The trembling dotard to the deck he drew; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAExpGO4ut3v
Then hoisted up, and overboard he threw: 877Please respect copyright.PENANA1Z0ehCZxH0
This done, he seiz'd the helm; his fellows cheer'd, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAyIyoxW5NEV
Turn'd short upon the shelfs, and madly steer'd. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAbPtSO5S2aD
Hardly his head the plunging pilot rears, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAOdgUUQa0Ar
Clogg'd with his clothes, and cumber'd with his years: 877Please respect copyright.PENANADjgD6ZJxo5
Now dropping wet, he climbs the cliff with pain. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAe0yCH1oOKZ
The crowd, that saw him fall and float again, 877Please respect copyright.PENANATrZJyklkn6
Shout from the distant shore; and loudly laugh'd, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAHIXmwxIJuB
To see his heaving breast disgorge the briny draught. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAiWv0NEcJ6M
The following Centaur, and the Dolphin's crew, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAECD9LwOEj1
Their vanish'd hopes of victory renew; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAiLrJF68978
While Gyas lags, they kindle in the race, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAPSU47LhJlz
To reach the mark. Sergesthus takes the place; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAc5qbwdZYs5
Mnestheus pursues; and while around they wind, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAhk1mj0S8vd
Comes up, not half his galley's length behind; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAPtBNrh80yG
Then, on the deck, amidst his mates appear'd, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAuvihmTMTfN
And thus their drooping courage he cheer'd: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAzXD4hPprZO
"My friends, and Hector's followers heretofore, 877Please respect copyright.PENANADDjCDBX0zB
Exert your vigor; tug the lab'ring oar; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAjTG90OJnAO
Stretch to your strokes, my still unconquer'd crew, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA4hTHmd0PoC
Whom from the flaming walls of Troy I drew. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAUuJcV9TIEx
In this, our common int'rest, let me find 877Please respect copyright.PENANABJYC4ZXSy1
That strength of hand, that courage of the mind, 877Please respect copyright.PENANALiFRRLR3ss
As when you stemm'd the strong Malean flood, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA28GPnLoj8G
And o'er the Syrtes' broken billows row'd. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA90JFJ27CVQ
I seek not now the foremost palm to gain; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAHOXgJFR6Cj
Tho' yet- but, ah! that haughty wish is vain! 877Please respect copyright.PENANAtHN4de0pSW
Let those enjoy it whom the gods ordain. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAbyPKJTCtrr
But to be last, the lags of all the race!- 877Please respect copyright.PENANAn526p5tbUK
Redeem yourselves and me from that disgrace." 877Please respect copyright.PENANA69GUlRcIbA
Now, one and all, they tug amain; they row 877Please respect copyright.PENANAPLbbv1DZAN
At the full stretch, and shake the brazen prow. 877Please respect copyright.PENANATcyMoFbu2w
The sea beneath 'em sinks; their lab'ring sides 877Please respect copyright.PENANAaWcOdILEEc
Are swell'd, and sweat runs gutt'ring down in tides. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA0c2zICPQEx
Chance aids their daring with unhop'd success; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAxa5F60PvyS
Sergesthus, eager with his beak to press 877Please respect copyright.PENANAJJ8iJ24Bck
Betwixt the rival galley and the rock, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAQDPgPFIiqp
Shuts up th' unwieldly Centaur in the lock. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAu2Af5IS3kJ
The vessel struck; and, with the dreadful shock, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAWXHqjB1IQj
Her oars she shiver'd, and her head she broke. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAo4FneVUGKR
The trembling rowers from their banks arise, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAVFlvVU9URM
And, anxious for themselves, renounce the prize. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAmGArgWazy5
With iron poles they heave her off the shores, 877Please respect copyright.PENANATGCcmQFDo8
And gather from the sea their floating oars. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAPp970ReZaa
The crew of Mnestheus, with elated minds, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAubETYOIZpf
Urge their success, and call the willing winds; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA5LVgxaC5QF
Then ply their oars, and cut their liquid way 877Please respect copyright.PENANAPwD2EJNGQ4
In larger compass on the roomy sea. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAlSaxsXiuH6
As, when the dove her rocky hold forsakes, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAlmKrSP0TNH
Rous'd in a fright, her sounding wings she shakes; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAy58IfHAnLI
The cavern rings with clatt'ring; out she flies, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA6rymaf7FVU
And leaves her callow care, and cleaves the skies: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAnxzeN4iXCy
At first she flutters; but at length she springs 877Please respect copyright.PENANAeHYgB016TP
To smoother flight, and shoots upon her wings: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAXkKhqphbpV
So Mnestheus in the Dolphin cuts the sea; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAtQtl4fR95C
And, flying with a force, that force assists his way. 877Please respect copyright.PENANADXaG7KY681
Sergesthus in the Centaur soon he pass'd, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAhSGrqCIHMJ
Wedg'd in the rocky shoals, and sticking fast. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAs6i8VEgRgz
In vain the victor he with cries implores, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAstJ5IDbbAU
And practices to row with shatter'd oars. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAg0Y5dlb9NM
Then Mnestheus bears with Gyas, and outflies: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAG2wkJ3wuhl
The ship, without a pilot, yields the prize. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAtDc3fJTD4u
Unvanquish'd Scylla now alone remains; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAte1gxQISla
Her he pursues, and all his vigor strains. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAIiuf0hMPrF
Shouts from the fav'ring multitude arise; 877Please respect copyright.PENANACO0uKvFEvs
Applauding Echo to the shouts replies; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAF4fiMqOucm
Shouts, wishes, and applause run rattling thro' the skies. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAPcIMNzjB95
These clamors with disdain the Scylla heard, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAka0BDnMRTX
Much grudg'd the praise, but more the robb'd reward: 877Please respect copyright.PENANADsg1NUkmN2
Resolv'd to hold their own, they mend their pace, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAnC2E48B97n
All obstinate to die, or gain the race. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA70NYFVF76y
Rais'd with success, the Dolphin swiftly ran; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAkqkY8Tt3ZE
For they can conquer, who believe they can. 877Please respect copyright.PENANArMD5dZf2oQ
Both urge their oars, and fortune both supplies, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA2N1xhRmfc2
And both perhaps had shar'd an equal prize; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA2hT1JjNoDK
When to the seas Cloanthus holds his hands, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAuwBV6Dp4ON
And succor from the wat'ry pow'rs demands: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAhhtqfljV6p
"Gods of the liquid realms, on which I row! 877Please respect copyright.PENANAPo8GrpbpS3
If, giv'n by you, the laurel bind my brow, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAz1A7oq9N4e
Assist to make me guilty of my vow! 877Please respect copyright.PENANAzweQUI1Eo6
A snow-white bull shall on your shore be slain; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA1KX8LNoNUa
His offer'd entrails cast into the main, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAxD1G223yXY
And ruddy wine, from golden goblets thrown, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAe0b16Q54f5
Your grateful gift and my return shall own." 877Please respect copyright.PENANAUEBwvBQABg
The choir of nymphs, and Phorcus, from below, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAPAuqVMLorz
With virgin Panopea, heard his vow; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAX7qXTZ1DUM
And old Portunus, with his breadth of hand, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA7r9y8tnutv
Push'd on, and sped the galley to the land. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAczuYyhfje3
Swift as a shaft, or winged wind, she flies, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAPI63HGaoO4
And, darting to the port, obtains the prize. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAXQ1dCI7fg5
The herald summons all, and then proclaims 877Please respect copyright.PENANAyn3iXXGyzL
Cloanthus conqu'ror of the naval games. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA9UnLqo8Bwa
The prince with laurel crowns the victor's head, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAGeJqsdC4lm
And three fat steers are to his vessel led, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAMRTf5OxB7y
The ship's reward; with gen'rous wine beside, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA3zJyXoj9qH
And sums of silver, which the crew divide. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA59qIDb98EG
The leaders are distinguish'd from the rest; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAxIvYKtWEOI
The victor honor'd with a nobler vest, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA7Ilq5LAYFg
Where gold and purple strive in equal rows, 877Please respect copyright.PENANARqar6yGTgD
And needlework its happy cost bestows. 877Please respect copyright.PENANACElpUgKRtI
There Ganymede is wrought with living art, 877Please respect copyright.PENANADgO78UlpwJ
Chasing thro' Ida's groves the trembling hart: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAOT7zQaVmv5
Breathless he seems, yet eager to pursue; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAs0f8HGK716
When from aloft descends, in open view, 877Please respect copyright.PENANASd3dlk55lv
The bird of Jove, and, sousing on his prey, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA5zZos0S7zb
With crooked talons bears the boy away. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAHsNDb7gZw2
In vain, with lifted hands and gazing eyes, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAgk3Oe7LiPJ
His guards behold him soaring thro' the skies, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA5BkR38OkBJ
And dogs pursue his flight with imitated cries. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAcDK2Hh0LY7
Mnestheus the second victor was declar'd; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAx9iXpOf4SN
And, summon'd there, the second prize he shard. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAPVeVVz3yIW
A coat of mail, brave Demoleus bore, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAwVSatIxgvL
More brave Aeneas from his shoulders tore, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAdN5kMI5Tx5
In single combat on the Trojan shore: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAhic1a7pO5K
This was ordain'd for Mnestheus to possess; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAT43XdEUkzp
In war for his defense, for ornament in peace. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA0dys0S5P4p
Rich was the gift, and glorious to behold, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAGUkUcQvNcl
But yet so pond'rous with its plates of gold, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAnfbf9CmnV7
That scarce two servants could the weight sustain; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAmqjBQQlAKw
Yet, loaded thus, Demoleus o'er the plain 877Please respect copyright.PENANAAH2CvFBC5N
Pursued and lightly seiz'd the Trojan train. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAnlLfUtrPyX
The third, succeeding to the last reward, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAfsk6GA0YVs
Two goodly bowls of massy silver shar'd, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAKMEsK5kx5e
With figures prominent, and richly wrought, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAk9IsKj95Hv
And two brass caldrons from Dodona brought. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAw2kpOZrHQC
Thus all, rewarded by the hero's hands, 877Please respect copyright.PENANALNT3mjHiIU
Their conqu'ring temples bound with purple bands; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAyxYnQS2xXj
And now Sergesthus, clearing from the rock, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAukkSWyHd71
Brought back his galley shatter'd with the shock. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAXwSluQnuzw
Forlorn she look'd, without an aiding oar, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAhEWwftO86Y
And, houted by the vulgar, made to shore. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAjY4D5SfAjQ
As when a snake, surpris'd upon the road, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAhEGoth7io3
Is crush'd athwart her body by the load 877Please respect copyright.PENANAcIYD6J0zdz
Of heavy wheels; or with a mortal wound 877Please respect copyright.PENANAv34IyDYjs0
Her belly bruis'd, and trodden to the ground: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAPPnmOSrktm
In vain, with loosen'd curls, she crawls along; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAgg1atBndNY
Yet, fierce above, she brandishes her tongue; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAjRnSTZixwA
Glares with her eyes, and bristles with her scales; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAoJbAbARP1c
But, groveling in the dust, her parts unsound she trails: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAeuaYztnF6p
So slowly to the port the Centaur tends, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAT9rKCzaoro
But, what she wants in oars, with sails amends. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAnnkNUVZ7Zz
Yet, for his galley sav'd, the grateful prince 877Please respect copyright.PENANAUVAm0qmyeL
Is pleas'd th' unhappy chief to recompense. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA8QyCNAzGdv
Pholoe, the Cretan slave, rewards his care, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAqRPMjNVBbA
Beauteous herself, with lovely twins as fair. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAHRj0OHCvY5
From thence his way the Trojan hero bent 877Please respect copyright.PENANAElMxv21MCP
Into the neighb'ring plain, with mountains pent, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA9fQ3Hetqht
Whose sides were shaded with surrounding wood. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAxJlUvOtf7P
Full in the midst of this fair valley stood 877Please respect copyright.PENANAnkHOwg4u2r
A native theater, which, rising slow 877Please respect copyright.PENANAueHxce3QFg
By just degrees, o'erlook'd the ground below. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA475gt7O1HE
High on a sylvan throne the leader sate; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA6Ty9JBQ3gT
A num'rous train attend in solemn state. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAnEaXK9bMuC
Here those that in the rapid course delight, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA9TRnYZTG1J
Desire of honor and the prize invite. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAkXOMSCpTyr
The rival runners without order stand; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAbmvzlvXEMv
The Trojans mix'd with the Sicilian band. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAqgmSqt8uXv
First Nisus, with Euryalus, appears; 877Please respect copyright.PENANABkfqJVGUqB
Euryalus a boy of blooming years, 877Please respect copyright.PENANANs7TXc1L0k
With sprightly grace and equal beauty crown'd; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA1rl8tOOrpn
Nisus, for friendship to the youth renown'd. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAQzg2SgGyOU
Diores next, of Priam's royal race, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAq2JaRayR4H
Then Salius joined with Patron, took their place; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAmEYcDCFqka
(But Patron in Arcadia had his birth, 877Please respect copyright.PENANApiXe18wPKm
And Salius his from Arcananian earth;) 877Please respect copyright.PENANAqQgMTLn4ES
Then two Sicilian youths- the names of these, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAUrUdDnPVFn
Swift Helymus, and lovely Panopes: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAY0aJzPNUq0
Both jolly huntsmen, both in forest bred, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAcxGAQla7SW
And owning old Acestes for their head; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA7ymSQrSBMF
With sev'ral others of ignobler name, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA13u9oadNqc
Whom time has not deliver'd o'er to fame. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAm3CboqzQA6
To these the hero thus his thoughts explain'd, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAgffn9taa2X
In words which gen'ral approbation gain'd: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAV9Tb723cli
"One common largess is for all design'd, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA1EeA62ei2l
(The vanquish'd and the victor shall be join'd,) 877Please respect copyright.PENANAQPb9NZHfiL
Two darts of polish'd steel and Gnosian wood, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAbBDniZ7Y11
A silver-studded ax, alike bestow'd. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAyNCIXkv4zA
The foremost three have olive wreaths decreed: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAsgc9aVPZ74
The first of these obtains a stately steed, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAqgKJ97XgtB
Adorn'd with trappings; and the next in fame, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA3lSt1Wq2Xg
The quiver of an Amazonian dame, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA7n4pefZOFf
With feather'd Thracian arrows well supplied: 877Please respect copyright.PENANA03IPrIQcAB
A golden belt shall gird his manly side, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAHeQMUFpskv
Which with a sparkling diamond shall be tied. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAuxtI5FwME1
The third this Grecian helmet shall content." 877Please respect copyright.PENANAWPd5yxoA6K
He said. To their appointed base they went; 877Please respect copyright.PENANASx51YzNsDs
With beating hearts th' expected sign receive, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAZwgUWAN1YF
And, starting all at once, the barrier leave. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAeTnrU6A7Xl
Spread out, as on the winged winds, they flew, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAMB88psara5
And seiz'd the distant goal with greedy view. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA8m6cOnlqZv
Shot from the crowd, swift Nisus all o'erpass'd; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAb0Q1wdJHPu
Nor storms, nor thunder, equal half his haste. 877Please respect copyright.PENANADWC2kEVClm
The next, but tho' the next, yet far disjoin'd, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAD8v8qikqnI
Came Salius, and Euryalus behind; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAxRvc63KaSW
Then Helymus, whom young Diores plied, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAoWRSboiAUY
Step after step, and almost side by side, 877Please respect copyright.PENANASlK9l0zuTQ
His shoulders pressing; and, in longer space, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA2iIMOYtnkx
Had won, or left at least a dubious race. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAsg7DG9JbdF
Now, spent, the goal they almost reach at last, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAgaJK8EaY7S
When eager Nisus, hapless in his haste, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAYxFsxN2rLr
Slipp'd first, and, slipping, fell upon the plain, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAxJ4bF3X720
Soak'd with the blood of oxen newly slain. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAziHioSIvOY
The careless victor had not mark'd his way; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAnBPgk1WcNg
But, treading where the treach'rous puddle lay, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAcxuLmE43pW
His heels flew up; and on the grassy floor 877Please respect copyright.PENANAORJ6eQ2gDW
He fell, besmear'd with filth and holy gore. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAue1bU1ZMlj
Not mindless then, Euryalus, of thee, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAy5LcdEd8Wi
Nor of the sacred bonds of amity, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAggGtmSkqky
He strove th' immediate rival's hope to cross, 877Please respect copyright.PENANATgnf0BbOZz
And caught the foot of Salius as he rose. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA0FXGCkZXTm
So Salius lay extended on the plain; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAa6Fxhn8Yg0
Euryalus springs out, the prize to gain, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAzMciCdB0Q1
And leaves the crowd: applauding peals attend 877Please respect copyright.PENANALvhg2MO5O9
The victor to the goal, who vanquish'd by his friend. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA5dWOlvcpvV
Next Helymus; and then Diores came, 877Please respect copyright.PENANACbeEWkKlEL
By two misfortunes made the third in fame. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAN2RAeHqSrY
But Salius enters, and, exclaiming loud 877Please respect copyright.PENANAiywJIULoXa
For justice, deafens and disturbs the crowd; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAQ6EadIhrtw
Urges his cause may in the court be heard; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAVPQfc3pbFX
And pleads the prize is wrongfully conferr'd. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA3cqsxma6p1
But favor for Euryalus appears; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA2K8Pm5F7Nt
His blooming beauty, with his tender tears, 877Please respect copyright.PENANABu793ndAt9
Had brib'd the judges for the promis'd prize. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA6vLC8MGduz
Besides, Diores fills the court with cries, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAKDG3rGnH9m
Who vainly reaches at the last reward, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAzJXWbpdHWJ
If the first palm on Salius be conferr'd. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAIricv9qHmD
Then thus the prince: "Let no disputes arise: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAakgufK0rbh
Where fortune plac'd it, I award the prize. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAHVt7KORFUt
But fortune's errors give me leave to mend, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAvLDogK7vPV
At least to pity my deserving friend." 877Please respect copyright.PENANA7pZqR5gkqO
He said, and, from among the spoils, he draws 877Please respect copyright.PENANA1HNWnQgFr3
(Pond'rous with shaggy mane and golden paws) 877Please respect copyright.PENANAiWQhMYAXgb
A lion's hide: to Salius this he gives. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA8OTzxFqbUG
Nisus with envy sees the gift, and grieves. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAFL5KAr2UmW
"If such rewards to vanquish'd men are due." 877Please respect copyright.PENANAP3w2aq6h9K
He said, "and falling is to rise by you, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAqzevTJSf4z
What prize may Nisus from your bounty claim, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAVAs6F1s3Je
Who merited the first rewards and fame? 877Please respect copyright.PENANANLuZeN8blN
In falling, both an equal fortune tried; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAFuLxgDVCrG
Would fortune for my fall so well provide!" 877Please respect copyright.PENANAGiN3jjXkVe
With this he pointed to his face, and show'd 877Please respect copyright.PENANAP61qeciRv8
His hand and all his habit smear'd with blood. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAdnQ7SDFiIE
Th' indulgent father of the people smil'd, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAHuaR8aqdJT
And caus'd to be produc'd an ample shield, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAjpivIXVEsB
Of wondrous art, by Didymaon wrought, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAze4FVFpm6X
Long since from Neptune's bars in triumph brought. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAtc4OGNRZPW
This giv'n to Nisus, he divides the rest, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAzDyyyIDnpu
And equal justice in his gifts express'd. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAWlADmLemQe
The race thus ended, and rewards bestow'd, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAiC2vLix0Qh
Once more the princes bespeaks th' attentive crowd: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAy7NAu5PAwL
"If there he here whose dauntless courage dare 877Please respect copyright.PENANAejqPb1IYWb
In gauntlet-fight, with limbs and body bare, 877Please respect copyright.PENANALuFZmzgbSp
His opposite sustain in open view, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAYGK2bTr0iY
Stand forth the champion, and the games renew. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA3wDxIsMA6y
Two prizes I propose, and thus divide: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAN1aGXQz8fj
A bull with gilded horns, and fillets tied, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAWWFxympH76
Shall be the portion of the conqu'ring chief; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA9frykeG15E
A sword and helm shall cheer the loser's grief." 877Please respect copyright.PENANAVAdaKYxrKt
Then haughty Dares in the lists appears; 877Please respect copyright.PENANArF4RBeC0q4
Stalking he strides, his head erected bears: 877Please respect copyright.PENANA7qwNksR8zf
His nervous arms the weighty gauntlet wield, 877Please respect copyright.PENANACm2XhgDweE
And loud applauses echo thro' the field. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA5R4RGHZxPU
Dares alone in combat us'd to stand 877Please respect copyright.PENANAHKIBFMxNAo
The match of mighty Paris, hand to hand; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAPo6J3X7CT3
The same, at Hector's fun'rals, undertook 877Please respect copyright.PENANAK6r1kuU8q8
Gigantic Butes, of th' Amycian stock, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA71TybA0DGu
And, by the stroke of his resistless hand, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA7fOiCPf2yw
Stretch'd the vast bulk upon the yellow sand. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA6htz34yoku
Such Dares was; and such he strode along, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAP4Uif1tHyo
And drew the wonder of the gazing throng. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA8EXIVXnTY5
His brawny back and ample breast he shows, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAuR9X72xK3p
His lifted arms around his head he throws, 877Please respect copyright.PENANACfB3405Lto
And deals in whistling air his empty blows. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA09T6ChRIvX
His match is sought; but, thro' the trembling band, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAQ6AS2GUsXX
Not one dares answer to the proud demand. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAIqyLL7Mtyn
Presuming of his force, with sparkling eyes 877Please respect copyright.PENANAS9D40DB8fK
Already he devours the promis'd prize. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA4hCnAAeptY
He claims the bull with awless insolence, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAsysKxlUFkT
And having seiz'd his horns, accosts the prince: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAQgBRAwnCBf
"If none my matchless valor dares oppose, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAmrwozTfcdJ
How long shall Dares wait his dastard foes? 877Please respect copyright.PENANAkQ6r18vW5n
Permit me, chief, permit without delay, 877Please respect copyright.PENANARf2VzuwqhC
To lead this uncontended gift away." 877Please respect copyright.PENANAZhRCsrUHyJ
The crowd assents, and with redoubled cries 877Please respect copyright.PENANAn5IoYVun1i
For the proud challenger demands the prize. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAwT5HfwNSBF
Acestes, fir'd with just disdain, to see 877Please respect copyright.PENANAn21eUNsaTA
The palm usurp'd without a victory, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAvFjkmCEmVK
Reproach'd Entellus thus, who sate beside, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA2lqvS1vqKy
And heard and saw, unmov'd, the Trojan's pride: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAo6srhYVXoP
"Once, but in vain, a champion of renown, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA61pTMVhR1v
So tamely can you bear the ravish'd crown, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA7uhBZonS0Y
A prize in triumph borne before your sight, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA654fxtWsLQ
And shun, for fear, the danger of the fight? 877Please respect copyright.PENANArCWxvmYh64
Where is our Eryx now, the boasted name, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAIome8HrEb1
The god who taught your thund'ring arm the game? 877Please respect copyright.PENANAkonvSpFh1n
Where now your baffled honor? Where the spoil 877Please respect copyright.PENANAhNxhGu0GvH
That fill'd your house, and fame that fill'd our isle?" 877Please respect copyright.PENANA5rONeUTxk9
Entellus, thus: "My soul is still the same, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAiE6qv0gsjG
Unmov'd with fear, and mov'd with martial fame; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAyIIDlYMeOe
But my chill blood is curdled in my veins, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA1AmqUr2YZU
And scarce the shadow of a man remains. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAT9EzBSpdMt
O could I turn to that fair prime again, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA01FslVdKAP
That prime of which this boaster is so vain, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAxAk9pxT7Yq
The brave, who this decrepid age defies, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAtbHv2fixyq
Should feel my force, without the promis'd prize." 877Please respect copyright.PENANAbGnDYNmx9p
He said; and, rising at the word, he threw 877Please respect copyright.PENANAiEWtGcxTzL
Two pond'rous gauntlets down in open view; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA5s7TDfKIMQ
Gauntlets which Eryx wont in fight to wield, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA9xncS9S9dX
And sheathe his hands with in the listed field. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAdlCdpUbTKF
With fear and wonder seiz'd, the crowd beholds 877Please respect copyright.PENANA8r89WoVGBg
The gloves of death, with sev'n distinguish'd folds 877Please respect copyright.PENANATOPhLS95SZ
Of tough bull hides; the space within is spread 877Please respect copyright.PENANACX2MFOLy88
With iron, or with loads of heavy lead: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAl4VDWnOZZZ
Dares himself was daunted at the sight, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAC3BEA11VSC
Renounc'd his challenge, and refus'd to fight. 877Please respect copyright.PENANANEankVf4TM
Astonish'd at their weight, the hero stands, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAMjO6EXK5GU
And pois'd the pond'rous engines in his hands. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAzEI3DOGjE7
"What had your wonder," said Entellus, "been, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAzKmp0E2U4m
Had you the gauntlets of Alcides seen, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAc1Foy9v8Vc
Or view'd the stern debate on this unhappy green! 877Please respect copyright.PENANAzGuDnvFm6S
These which I bear your brother Eryx bore, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAn4dN7qnK1u
Still mark'd with batter'd brains and mingled gore. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAZEMfODeh1g
With these he long sustain'd th' Herculean arm; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA1f5hRVdBta
And these I wielded while my blood was warm, 877Please respect copyright.PENANABicpDGCfmF
This languish'd frame while better spirits fed, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAADEvJBr0W9
Ere age unstrung my nerves, or time o'ersnow'd my head. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA1XAxj5nj1v
But if the challenger these arms refuse, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA6rV2fwEIQ1
And cannot wield their weight, or dare not use; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA87NBZ8xekB
If great Aeneas and Acestes join 877Please respect copyright.PENANA1F8S1sqXgq
In his request, these gauntlets I resign; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAikDj9RT5cv
Let us with equal arms perform the fight, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAgvpZrmhU8i
And let him leave to fear, since I resign my right." 877Please respect copyright.PENANAjKc9WZAu6k
This said, Entellus for the strife prepares; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAv4uccqQlUj
Stripp'd of his quilted coat, his body bares; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAfMdthF84Cg
Compos'd of mighty bones and brawn he stands, 877Please respect copyright.PENANABQ628iJEgH
A goodly tow'ring object on the sands. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAY6H2XMSYoa
Then just Aeneas equal arms supplied, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA6CrBclfPmy
Which round their shoulders to their wrists they tied. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAR763IgwjNK
Both on the tiptoe stand, at full extent, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAJaYjUHMjul
Their arms aloft, their bodies inly bent; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAtQQ2cGjffv
Their heads from aiming blows they bear afar; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAE4j4t9cvmV
With clashing gauntlets then provoke the war. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA8O12fUkufC
One on his youth and pliant limbs relies; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA3ZU1687Ban
One on his sinews and his giant size. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAjqceln7YUK
The last is stiff with age, his motion slow; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAWD6f5HC0sK
He heaves for breath, he staggers to and fro, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAZnZi2KlaSS
And clouds of issuing smoke his nostrils loudly blow. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAt7wCjKX4OU
Yet equal in success, they ward, they strike; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAGgtChUng4u
Their ways are diff'rent, but their art alike. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA7yczdxxGFO
Before, behind, the blows are dealt; around 877Please respect copyright.PENANA0cBkEaKrGe
Their hollow sides the rattling thumps resound. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAStVAWaTHNz
A storm of strokes, well meant, with fury flies, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAkiFztfxjZo
And errs about their temples, ears, and eyes. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAcRr7o5JIDN
Nor always errs; for oft the gauntlet draws 877Please respect copyright.PENANAQPOEAdoiJm
A sweeping stroke along the crackling jaws. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA11RNG2LY5Y
Heavy with age, Entellus stands his ground, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAOfF1crzTzI
But with his warping body wards the wound. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAjONfE7I1T3
His hand and watchful eye keep even pace; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAseeTd0pGhM
While Dares traverses and shifts his place, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAfze6IstMyH
And, like a captain who beleaguers round 877Please respect copyright.PENANA7qvfGh5yB3
Some strong-built castle on a rising ground, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAija8O8FsKm
Views all th' approaches with observing eyes: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAnZAlBHWybc
This and that other part in vain he tries, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA6jCLWjb49e
And more on industry than force relies. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA9KRz7WcbNQ
With hands on high, Entellus threats the foe; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAv8oKGHbkn5
But Dares watch'd the motion from below, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAMdu6akOvwg
And slipp'd aside, and shunn'd the long descending blow. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAUCdNcCZ2mw
Entellus wastes his forces on the wind, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAiRgCgZpqds
And, thus deluded of the stroke design'd, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAmnwbhTKwHk
Headlong and heavy fell; his ample breast 877Please respect copyright.PENANAkyl5VgSN6z
And weighty limbs his ancient mother press'd. 877Please respect copyright.PENANACREUSVHwO7
So falls a hollow pine, that long had stood 877Please respect copyright.PENANA3WcpKSUN0m
On Ida's height, or Erymanthus' wood, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAxXZ0OUi82v
Torn from the roots. The diff'ring nations rise, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAO3Kg3f1E0v
And shouts and mingled murmurs rend the skies, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAIKnlZtMI2C
Acestus runs with eager haste, to raise 877Please respect copyright.PENANAQxssLqkago
The fall'n companion of his youthful days. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAv7fEAZp4k3
Dauntless he rose, and to the fight return'd; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA3TNWNXGYIg
With shame his glowing cheeks, his eyes with fury burn'd. 877Please respect copyright.PENANARoptQYjMGn
Disdain and conscious virtue fir'd his breast, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAj5h49VxSFU
And with redoubled force his foe he press'd. 877Please respect copyright.PENANANRXTN1jJSG
He lays on load with either hand, amain, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAL7t6VBF8HX
And headlong drives the Trojan o'er the plain; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAVtX3gIrpS1
Nor stops, nor stays; nor rest nor breath allows; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAV9ZUEaYiKf
But storms of strokes descend about his brows, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAbHeUjs4kwt
A rattling tempest, and a hail of blows. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAHXW2CkVGSu
But now the prince, who saw the wild increase 877Please respect copyright.PENANA7sJrQNChVp
Of wounds, commands the combatants to cease, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA2257Xkqzkd
And bounds Entellus' wrath, and bids the peace. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAE2nvHfhblb
First to the Trojan, spent with toil, he came, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAxiMdEMnxLi
And sooth'd his sorrow for the suffer'd shame. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA220cOID9JD
"What fury seiz'd my friend? The gods," said he, 877Please respect copyright.PENANANFWRw1RCjc
"To him propitious, and averse to thee, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA8WFOZKf2ub
Have giv'n his arm superior force to thine. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAvg8o3jbCYE
'T is madness to contend with strength divine." 877Please respect copyright.PENANAU79xnap8u2
The gauntlet fight thus ended, from the shore 877Please respect copyright.PENANAxiCytXP5nP
His faithful friends unhappy Dares bore: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAueNrRqMiUQ
His mouth and nostrils pour'd a purple flood, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAUoJacOadVG
And pounded teeth came rushing with his blood. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAn2Po86Iy6o
Faintly he stagger'd thro' the hissing throng, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA4h0kd4SCLg
And hung his head, and trail'd his legs along. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAJw7Bwjc09J
The sword and casque are carried by his train; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAgA1HNQjZ0e
But with his foe the palm and ox remain. 877Please respect copyright.PENANACKD6o6Hf8i
The champion, then, before Aeneas came, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAhVn7SazEfb
Proud of his prize, but prouder of his fame: 877Please respect copyright.PENANABnkg477QAk
"O goddess-born, and you, Dardanian host, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAG2isUNcmXC
Mark with attention, and forgive my boast; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA2J8DR5mhVs
Learn what I was, by what remains; and know 877Please respect copyright.PENANAktRar6Umpl
From what impending fate you sav'd my foe." 877Please respect copyright.PENANACRyvTaBQY1
Sternly he spoke, and then confronts the bull; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAsJ0pqGwDmR
And, on his ample forehead aiming full, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAMIbsQjU5ds
The deadly stroke, descending, pierc'd the skull. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAEYfK2fj3mX
Down drops the beast, nor needs a second wound, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAObebVA4tlx
But sprawls in pangs of death, and spurns the ground. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAdVCyu8CNbl
Then, thus: "In Dares' stead I offer this. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAhdsRkX147Z
Eryx, accept a nobler sacrifice; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA9kRB66U2Xh
Take the last gift my wither'd arms can yield: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAFjuLBeYy3D
Thy gauntlets I resign, and here renounce the field." 877Please respect copyright.PENANAR5jBe35DTs
This done, Aeneas orders, for the close, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAZT7hde75eD
The strife of archers with contending bows. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAWQREAVR6Bg
The mast Sergesthus' shatter'd galley bore 877Please respect copyright.PENANAWa6O5orIwA
With his own hands he raises on the shore. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAX5jztUZAYZ
A flutt'ring dove upon the top they tie, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAU99TxmpP8t
The living mark at which their arrows fly. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAigKXdFgeVL
The rival archers in a line advance, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAm7bKaNX76R
Their turn of shooting to receive from chance. 877Please respect copyright.PENANACuc4MkbilW
A helmet holds their names; the lots are drawn: 877Please respect copyright.PENANATsaO350ozB
On the first scroll was read Hippocoon. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAGhMwqiJccO
The people shout. Upon the next was found 877Please respect copyright.PENANAvd2UIsJlqu
Young Mnestheus, late with naval honors crown'd. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAenhZ5Nghbb
The third contain'd Eurytion's noble name, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAycQOBVXEM3
Thy brother, Pandarus, and next in fame, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAPLw4QwHGzG
Whom Pallas urg'd the treaty to confound, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAixhpB9aKzM
And send among the Greeks a feather'd wound. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAn1iKr4uFJ6
Acestes in the bottom last remain'd, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAa4C3nCEmgG
Whom not his age from youthful sports restrain'd. 877Please respect copyright.PENANADaRWvnFGxz
Soon all with vigor bend their trusty bows, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAgCk78jOYW9
And from the quiver each his arrow chose. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAOsovxXMSAA
Hippocoon's was the first: with forceful sway 877Please respect copyright.PENANAUbzaecGoOf
It flew, and, whizzing, cut the liquid way. 877Please respect copyright.PENANASI1ZaRIWsv
Fix'd in the mast the feather'd weapon stands: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAdjhKa4O1Me
The fearful pigeon flutters in her bands, 877Please respect copyright.PENANACXty4OvzqK
And the tree trembled, and the shouting cries 877Please respect copyright.PENANAxWwCxNTgtd
Of the pleas'd people rend the vaulted skies. 877Please respect copyright.PENANARwdQP4Iv8i
Then Mnestheus to the head his arrow drove, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAJ7DNRK5E7f
With lifted eyes, and took his aim above, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAaNbUYCk92E
But made a glancing shot, and missed the dove; 877Please respect copyright.PENANATapO6F7M6m
Yet miss'd so narrow, that he cut the cord 877Please respect copyright.PENANAjepFvWogr6
Which fasten'd by the foot the flitting bird. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAKV38OIjqef
The captive thus releas'd, away she flies, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAaataC7SfOd
And beats with clapping wings the yielding skies. 877Please respect copyright.PENANARMEqDKCX5h
His bow already bent, Eurytion stood; 877Please respect copyright.PENANArSHOsssyS9
And, having first invok'd his brother god, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAbN2J09q1Gx
His winged shaft with eager haste he sped. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAbBxlNcFatZ
The fatal message reach'd her as she fled: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAnYrpIysEOk
She leaves her life aloft; she strikes the ground, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA7tJjDRUsDx
And renders back the weapon in the wound. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAbIlNzRCa13
Acestes, grudging at his lot, remains, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAzlWJ5OMO81
Without a prize to gratify his pains. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA4iykper0Fa
Yet, shooting upward, sends his shaft, to show 877Please respect copyright.PENANAujzwh8AIRT
An archer's art, and boast his twanging bow. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAnoRXiOa8Le
The feather'd arrow gave a dire portent, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAgzVbilk5nT
And latter augurs judge from this event. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAD4agyGp4tZ
Chaf'd by the speed, it fir'd; and, as it flew, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA8S8sQZ687y
A trail of following flames ascending drew: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAtPAHLLCnOl
Kindling they mount, and mark the shiny way; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAu3wA9J1820
Across the skies as falling meteors play, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAgXW8K1FS8o
And vanish into wind, or in a blaze decay. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAZZaXQ6me0I
The Trojans and Sicilians wildly stare, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAvAUeNxKnjI
And, trembling, turn their wonder into pray'r. 877Please respect copyright.PENANANzj67alpzg
The Dardan prince put on a smiling face, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA1vmfHCQ6hm
And strain'd Acestes with a close embrace; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA8nC6Ts4SMC
Then, hon'ring him with gifts above the rest, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAelAtsZzkix
Turn'd the bad omen, nor his fears confess'd. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAnpOyMcNRdK
"The gods," said he, "this miracle have wrought, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAe1IXcE5n7z
And order'd you the prize without the lot. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAN5pPIWEqIb
Accept this goblet, rough with figur'd gold, 877Please respect copyright.PENANACoZLNwzzQg
Which Thracian Cisseus gave my sire of old: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAOzsIX7zWvn
This pledge of ancient amity receive, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAaqSUrAk8Uu
Which to my second sire I justly give." 877Please respect copyright.PENANAoPgsesPAcR
He said, and, with the trumpets' cheerful sound, 877Please respect copyright.PENANADGseDVeSUM
Proclaim'd him victor, and with laurel-crown'd. 877Please respect copyright.PENANATpKpxx0n4v
Nor good Eurytion envied him the prize, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAH6zliu8gw3
Tho' he transfix'd the pigeon in the skies. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAv8HMkN7fZV
Who cut the line, with second gifts was grac'd; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAgmwpaDa9bY
The third was his whose arrow pierc'd the mast. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA6j7DsCESKU
The chief, before the games were wholly done, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAovMiKyBW1g
Call'd Periphantes, tutor to his son, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAKIOiTPtrYn
And whisper'd thus: "With speed Ascanius find; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA9YpkRq5HrZ
And, if his childish troop be ready join'd, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAT4uef9LF47
On horseback let him grace his grandsire's day, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAXWhg570mLH
And lead his equals arm'd in just array." 877Please respect copyright.PENANAeG6t9aAArG
He said; and, calling out, the cirque he clears. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAOxBEiI2KtK
The crowd withdrawn, an open plain appears. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAvkp528tN9e
And now the noble youths, of form divine, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAOa8ZTPTEwt
Advance before their fathers, in a line; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAwQsnWFTsh5
The riders grace the steeds; the steeds with glory shine. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAzByhowKZna
Thus marching on in military pride, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAHdDEMpB6Eg
Shouts of applause resound from side to side. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAW7PjBIWddL
Their casques adorn'd with laurel wreaths they wear, 877Please respect copyright.PENANApe4bGUngdb
Each brandishing aloft a cornel spear. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAXERJlhY1Qz
Some at their backs their gilded quivers bore; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAP2YGisfqeq
Their chains of burnish'd gold hung down before. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA1bMMYfcNtt
Three graceful troops they form'd upon the green; 877Please respect copyright.PENANArKxFGgCrlY
Three graceful leaders at their head were seen; 877Please respect copyright.PENANATgpNRg9fu8
Twelve follow'd ev'ry chief, and left a space between. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAaZ40aSfgEN
The first young Priam led; a lovely boy, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA8PvJrdNKFw
Whose grandsire was th' unhappy king of Troy; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA5JCTLyzSp8
His race in after times was known to fame, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAepYyMPEBxG
New honors adding to the Latian name; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAIBOINj0iaF
And well the royal boy his Thracian steed became. 877Please respect copyright.PENANABhlInEjk0D
White were the fetlocks of his feet before, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAx2vNPQZho1
And on his front a snowy star he bore. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA5tlUlOjhec
Then beauteous Atys, with Iulus bred, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAVY6xxOPk12
Of equal age, the second squadron led. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAdjaEAQCqTT
The last in order, but the first in place, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAMIq32PuTjJ
First in the lovely features of his face, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA1XgE0u5KRj
Rode fair Ascanius on a fiery steed, 877Please respect copyright.PENANANsrdAyE8HT
Queen Dido's gift, and of the Tyrian breed. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAqKufOA6pyw
Sure coursers for the rest the king ordains, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAHhqnMZDNP1
With golden bits adorn'd, and purple reins. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAA3328nwBvX
The pleas'd spectators peals of shouts renew, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAeWkLuZYIgs
And all the parents in the children view; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAdP3ZJZC9cQ
Their make, their motions, and their sprightly grace, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAUSMiSkrixd
And hopes and fears alternate in their face. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA7ghU4UQq9M
Th' unfledg'd commanders and their martial train 877Please respect copyright.PENANABEPuPufstP
First make the circuit of the sandy plain 877Please respect copyright.PENANA6GWhCsIq9B
Around their sires, and, at th' appointed sign, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAjaSZvSYYY4
Drawn up in beauteous order, form a line. 877Please respect copyright.PENANALvk8gWDLuE
The second signal sounds, the troop divides 877Please respect copyright.PENANAj0nNsY7au6
In three distinguish'd parts, with three distinguish'd guides 877Please respect copyright.PENANAKV5L4JRFIJ
Again they close, and once again disjoin; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAJmlxcM1qii
In troop to troop oppos'd, and line to line. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAc8bH5Xtq1S
They meet; they wheel; they throw their darts afar 877Please respect copyright.PENANAEnxHjuDs3e
With harmless rage and well-dissembled war. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAqYnr7oxtjC
Then in a round the mingled bodies run: 877Please respect copyright.PENANA74xomXk8vj
Flying they follow, and pursuing shun; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAnUaEUz0LIl
Broken, they break; and, rallying, they renew 877Please respect copyright.PENANAv6vf3IPn9l
In other forms the military shew. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAmQ9Nr4C4ZR
At last, in order, undiscern'd they join, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAhfQpoaZDGr
And march together in a friendly line. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA1sPrke5E8W
And, as the Cretan labyrinth of old, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAdAbuddVMOV
With wand'ring ways and many a winding fold, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAL73RnO3GCY
Involv'd the weary feet, without redress, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAxJPShXixEN
In a round error, which denied recess; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAGf75qAOqlU
So fought the Trojan boys in warlike play, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAfu3RXuFtpD
Turn'd and return'd, and still a diff'rent way. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAe1zv4o8wzH
Thus dolphins in the deep each other chase 877Please respect copyright.PENANAnM64KRpInM
In circles, when they swim around the wat'ry race. 877Please respect copyright.PENANADlDvV779Xl
This game, these carousels, Ascanius taught; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAnNLgeCw7GS
And, building Alba, to the Latins brought; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAEpimwFsd59
Shew'd what he learn'd: the Latin sires impart 877Please respect copyright.PENANAkyVSagwukI
To their succeeding sons the graceful art; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAEJyfQnq6vj
From these imperial Rome receiv'd the game, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAQZOAyxlWWB
Which Troy, the youths the Trojan troop, they name. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAkzrBVoHrLm
Thus far the sacred sports they celebrate: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAy7KOXWJoZV
But Fortune soon resum'd her ancient hate; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAapuf7kQ2Tj
For, while they pay the dead his annual dues, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAUj06ZkEAdM
Those envied rites Saturnian Juno views; 877Please respect copyright.PENANADAuHI7xmcD
And sends the goddess of the various bow, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAGe5KOfQJjT
To try new methods of revenge below; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAaviipzfyok
Supplies the winds to wing her airy way, 877Please respect copyright.PENANARINM8XvusJ
Where in the port secure the navy lay. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAMXMBlFQG6P
Swiftly fair Iris down her arch descends, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAsSfQoCqxjm
And, undiscern'd, her fatal voyage ends. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAnp62ebBScW
She saw the gath'ring crowd; and, gliding thence, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAAk0k6N3PB6
The desart shore, and fleet without defense. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAkJu1kxBG3d
The Trojan matrons, on the sands alone, 877Please respect copyright.PENANANlA7TdaXuD
With sighs and tears Anchises' death bemoan; 877Please respect copyright.PENANArK5PQeTQ5j
Then, turning to the sea their weeping eyes, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAN7robcHeZy
Their pity to themselves renews their cries. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAHMngMVc2Ng
"Alas!" said one, "what oceans yet remain 877Please respect copyright.PENANAHSiHJYPky6
For us to sail! what labors to sustain!" 877Please respect copyright.PENANAQpgdev1056
All take the word, and, with a gen'ral groan, 877Please respect copyright.PENANADw6HWvaK9H
Implore the gods for peace, and places of their own. 877Please respect copyright.PENANALFXeN4fQfj
The goddess, great in mischief, views their pains, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAq8nj0ZrLXc
And in a woman's form her heav'nly limbs restrains. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAOtoqxLqOTR
In face and shape old Beroe she became, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAVNvnB5qQDZ
Doryclus' wife, a venerable dame, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAcv0wqJdDkl
Once blest with riches, and a mother's name. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA3WOiMrFuhE
Thus chang'd, amidst the crying crowd she ran, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAHIwHbY1qdb
Mix'd with the matrons, and these words began: 877Please respect copyright.PENANANTl2u4ZgUr
"O wretched we, whom not the Grecian pow'r, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAWqUyo33SPg
Nor flames, destroy'd, in Troy's unhappy hour! 877Please respect copyright.PENANAB4xuCrA1W4
O wretched we, reserv'd by cruel fate, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAtAgVh4xJ02
Beyond the ruins of the sinking state! 877Please respect copyright.PENANA4haFiOsVGB
Now sev'n revolving years are wholly run, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAOrbuVM5eYi
Since this improsp'rous voyage we begun; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAX5SEjObBXU
Since, toss'd from shores to shores, from lands to lands, 877Please respect copyright.PENANATyXlhBZ0Tw
Inhospitable rocks and barren sands, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAG5Nv43Fxlo
Wand'ring in exile thro' the stormy sea, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAJfTTiWA1i7
We search in vain for flying Italy. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAVBsVOADWin
Now cast by fortune on this kindred land, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA6yKIEifvzI
What should our rest and rising walls withstand, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAdqKkB6Minw
Or hinder here to fix our banish'd band? 877Please respect copyright.PENANAzXVtI86UK8
O country lost, and gods redeem'd in vain, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA1t8g2MJaOF
If still in endless exile we remain! 877Please respect copyright.PENANAKx4ujxKvQV
Shall we no more the Trojan walls renew, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAPHrWDHRDY3
Or streams of some dissembled Simois view! 877Please respect copyright.PENANAF9U2gLmyoa
Haste, join with me, th' unhappy fleet consume! 877Please respect copyright.PENANAWOYXj9TcLW
Cassandra bids; and I declare her doom. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAFj6Dgh4thJ
In sleep I saw her; she supplied my hands 877Please respect copyright.PENANAboxlLG9eit
(For this I more than dreamt) with flaming brands: 877Please respect copyright.PENANA3RF5pbjEmr
'With these,' said she, 'these wand'ring ships destroy: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAMroDktsAGU
These are your fatal seats, and this your Troy.' 877Please respect copyright.PENANAc01uNE47nO
Time calls you now; the precious hour employ: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAcLT94Wd9xL
Slack not the good presage, while Heav'n inspires 877Please respect copyright.PENANAvGeFzlVm6N
Our minds to dare, and gives the ready fires. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAPJvJqgt8Az
See! Neptune's altars minister their brands: 877Please respect copyright.PENANACDKrtC2gzC
The god is pleas'd; the god supplies our hands." 877Please respect copyright.PENANAl9tZQwKLxw
Then from the pile a flaming fire she drew, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAn6wYwOqrUB
And, toss'd in air, amidst the galleys threw. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAgDCoVMZQoq
Wrapp'd in amaze, the matrons wildly stare: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAwvgI64KbXf
Then Pyrgo, reverenc'd for her hoary hair, 877Please respect copyright.PENANASkzOEIAyNL
Pyrgo, the nurse of Priam's num'rous race: 877Please respect copyright.PENANA7QePbFcHoP
"No Beroe this, tho' she belies her face! 877Please respect copyright.PENANALJOCBLyS5g
What terrors from her frowning front arise! 877Please respect copyright.PENANACThnHWXwdz
Behold a goddess in her ardent eyes! 877Please respect copyright.PENANASdHklsf1S9
What rays around her heav'nly face are seen! 877Please respect copyright.PENANAqEIyXn62X4
Mark her majestic voice, and more than mortal mien! 877Please respect copyright.PENANA1fOuh9Dtcf
Beroe but now I left, whom, pin'd with pain, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAo17bWEAeqM
Her age and anguish from these rites detain," 877Please respect copyright.PENANACr9oscHfhU
She said. The matrons, seiz'd with new amaze, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA0VXgIAsYU2
Roll their malignant eyes, and on the navy gaze. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAfj4NaUt5t5
They fear, and hope, and neither part obey: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAkgLC57W4Q4
They hope the fated land, but fear the fatal way. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAZ4rMMNDZjT
The goddess, having done her task below, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAnThjp9UhS1
Mounts up on equal wings, and bends her painted bow. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA4Uin4yOQ2I
Struck with the sight, and seiz'd with rage divine, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAwRlfXtAlbE
The matrons prosecute their mad design: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAfPPOykTyWO
They shriek aloud; they snatch, with impious hands, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAZtJh5TYpmh
The food of altars; fires and flaming brands. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAzugtagOGrj
Green boughs and saplings, mingled in their haste, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAFLsXSKtJSM
And smoking torches, on the ships they cast. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA3oNOJk0meV
The flame, unstopp'd at first, more fury gains, 877Please respect copyright.PENANABD5lCPVorl
And Vulcan rides at large with loosen'd reins: 877Please respect copyright.PENANA5nPin5z0d3
Triumphant to the painted sterns he soars, 877Please respect copyright.PENANALSwGbe5gRR
And seizes, in this way, the banks and crackling oars. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAxqaSwK7L9V
Eumelus was the first the news to bear, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAs6MiOGZD7V
While yet they crowd the rural theater. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA9aamJZbKlh
Then, what they hear, is witness'd by their eyes: 877Please respect copyright.PENANATSN2jhtjI6
A storm of sparkles and of flames arise. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA1jqy6Os0zm
Ascanius took th' alarm, while yet he led 877Please respect copyright.PENANAHU3NSwvF46
His early warriors on his prancing steed, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAbOqFhm7rB5
And, spurring on, his equals soon o'erpass'd; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAze5bCjQIoR
Nor could his frighted friends reclaim his haste. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAXerFvtQyMP
Soon as the royal youth appear'd in view, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA6eHDXbuFHy
He sent his voice before him as he flew: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAQPnot7XhPm
"What madness moves you, matrons, to destroy 877Please respect copyright.PENANA7DOxyaP4m9
The last remainders of unhappy Troy! 877Please respect copyright.PENANAEp71msa8rz
Not hostile fleets, but your own hopes, you burn, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAyJagkDNK1k
And on your friends your fatal fury turn. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAclhJFGLWwJ
Behold your own Ascanius!" While he said, 877Please respect copyright.PENANADIbtt9SJzQ
He drew his glitt'ring helmet from his head, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAFMemfp86O7
In which the youths to sportful arms he led. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAUzoX6Fookq
By this, Aeneas and his train appear; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAaE0TWg41vo
And now the women, seiz'd with shame and fear, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAzup2gO8MIP
Dispers'd, to woods and caverns take their flight, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAtQnZaiqzYH
Abhor their actions, and avoid the light; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAXieT95mwly
Their friends acknowledge, and their error find, 877Please respect copyright.PENANApOkk0Oe2Xy
And shake the goddess from their alter'd mind. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAJh82Vh5nSg
Not so the raging fires their fury cease, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAr4zjSXMRGN
But, lurking in the seams, with seeming peace, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAywTjjnCBVK
Work on their way amid the smold'ring tow, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAqnJtet2bpE
Sure in destruction, but in motion slow. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAZ1gOLzuzF3
The silent plague thro' the green timber eats, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAZkYCB4VYjt
And vomits out a tardy flame by fits. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAjJQRKf6g9L
Down to the keels, and upward to the sails, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAQNGt7SvSsT
The fire descends, or mounts, but still prevails; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA2lTyE8swWx
Nor buckets pour'd, nor strength of human hand, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAGRTe6YIiR6
Can the victorious element withstand. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAXiqh6WtXeI
The pious hero rends his robe, and throws 877Please respect copyright.PENANA5bpR9PEvSf
To heav'n his hands, and with his hands his vows. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAwNR3IytbTr
"O Jove," he cried, "if pray'rs can yet have place; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAKq6Q6l2kUw
If thou abhorr'st not all the Dardan race; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAOuhWknm9hT
If any spark of pity still remain; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAL3ufP26rt9
If gods are gods, and not invok'd in vain; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAawYgD2Lssf
Yet spare the relics of the Trojan train! 877Please respect copyright.PENANAB4fH7o6DdS
Yet from the flames our burning vessels free, 877Please respect copyright.PENANARQDWo6Czlh
Or let thy fury fall alone on me! 877Please respect copyright.PENANAxO717iDjeq
At this devoted head thy thunder throw, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA0Vp5ojXEkI
And send the willing sacrifice below!" 877Please respect copyright.PENANAwJMXN2HvJy
Scarce had he said, when southern storms arise: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAZnY1e660Lb
From pole to pole the forky lightning flies; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA6gvyN4ZhBJ
Loud rattling shakes the mountains and the plain; 877Please respect copyright.PENANASwAB57Gt0H
Heav'n bellies downward, and descends in rain. 877Please respect copyright.PENANALyXhPEdeXB
Whole sheets of water from the clouds are sent, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAKWQ8T2Lhg8
Which, hissing thro' the planks, the flames prevent, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA53dU8IucLi
And stop the fiery pest. Four ships alone 877Please respect copyright.PENANA8Q7zQ3qbqf
Burn to the waist, and for the fleet atone. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAxSj46RSfEa
But doubtful thoughts the hero's heart divide; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAyjCsvPcayj
If he should still in Sicily reside, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAlb60IHKLfl
Forgetful of his fates, or tempt the main, 877Please respect copyright.PENANATLgJwoTrm3
In hope the promis'd Italy to gain. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA2ugy5BEEpN
Then Nautes, old and wise, to whom alone 877Please respect copyright.PENANAOEjl01WrwY
The will of Heav'n by Pallas was foreshown; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAiKJFx4JVZX
Vers'd in portents, experienc'd, and inspir'd 877Please respect copyright.PENANAtcnb230lMr
To tell events, and what the fates requir'd; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAXSGhK8uixu
Thus while he stood, to neither part inclin'd, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAtpEdu1h7iP
With cheerful words reliev'd his lab'ring mind: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAvQ3UU9Tnnj
"O goddess-born, resign'd in ev'ry state, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAERQpjCoSJB
With patience bear, with prudence push your fate. 877Please respect copyright.PENANACilBRgM3hF
By suff'ring well, our Fortune we subdue; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAAdyzKR3Bdh
Fly when she frowns, and, when she calls, pursue. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAG77Tbn65CJ
Your friend Acestes is of Trojan kind; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAgfXBcYbLCx
To him disclose the secrets of your mind: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAz7qSKe2R4G
Trust in his hands your old and useless train; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAMp8JmenyGD
Too num'rous for the ships which yet remain: 877Please respect copyright.PENANA7KUbzGHFzY
The feeble, old, indulgent of their ease, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA6lroFhlSBY
The dames who dread the dangers of the seas, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAoYXyZU2e03
With all the dastard crew, who dare not stand 877Please respect copyright.PENANARRt9t2Iy6G
The shock of battle with your foes by land. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAKJH7bIy1IL
Here you may build a common town for all, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAqqQajgbDUd
And, from Acestes' name, Acesta call." 877Please respect copyright.PENANAM45pWa5iQd
The reasons, with his friend's experience join'd, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAENQCWd6pTd
Encourag'd much, but more disturb'd his mind. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAwYfkFKZ9SN
'T was dead of night; when to his slumb'ring eyes 877Please respect copyright.PENANAb3BxXryJkP
His father's shade descended from the skies, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAJ2WNRtVWKv
And thus he spoke: "O more than vital breath, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAm162oyJWjD
Lov'd while I liv'd, and dear ev'n after death; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAtdPMu9l023
O son, in various toils and troubles toss'd, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAursSjcXoOu
The King of Heav'n employs my careful ghost 877Please respect copyright.PENANASpcW0PlT2T
On his commands: the god, who sav'd from fire 877Please respect copyright.PENANAwjsbO6Im31
Your flaming fleet, and heard your just desire. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAIPQAPgyidG
The wholesome counsel of your friend receive, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAQv4RkO5D2N
And here the coward train and woman leave: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAqHvdb6vfTO
The chosen youth, and those who nobly dare, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAcfMHJwpOws
Transport, to tempt the dangers of the war. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAyZGIqGnbxR
The stern Italians will their courage try; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAIpWPi7C4NY
Rough are their manners, and their minds are high. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA41j9gJWabj
But first to Pluto's palace you shall go, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA5bIAL2ulMq
And seek my shade among the blest below: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAFIj2NAAUxW
For not with impious ghosts my soul remains, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAgEyk8cqCDT
Nor suffers with the damn'd perpetual pains, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAatwE9yIA0t
But breathes the living air of soft Elysian plains. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAojbOzXQL8y
The chaste Sibylla shall your steps convey, 877Please respect copyright.PENANALLVJp1Jdud
And blood of offer'd victims free the way. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAyUjsyCPhkj
There shall you know what realms the gods assign, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAB9h2uhD8uL
And learn the fates and fortunes of your line. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAjdzTUisnsn
But now, farewell! I vanish with the night, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAO0P6hH4x9Z
And feel the blast of heav'n's approaching light." 877Please respect copyright.PENANAO9Mn7fUJio
He said, and mix'd with shades, and took his airy flight. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA7ZFytbhDRX
"Whither so fast?" the filial duty cried; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAbztl5X6FLp
"And why, ah why, the wish'd embrace denied?" 877Please respect copyright.PENANAl0EydRSZw9
He said, and rose; as holy zeal inspires, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAzWy4Ly18cK
He rakes hot embers, and renews the fires; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA7sIN5XNjJh
His country gods and Vesta then adores 877Please respect copyright.PENANA1rPLgNXrIG
With cakes and incense, and their aid implores. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAk54L30tXWY
Next, for his friends and royal host he sent, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAXYrh3bgdLD
Reveal'd his vision, and the gods' intent, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAvnda3jeWEv
With his own purpose. All, without delay, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA64GvnHOqwv
The will of Jove, and his desires obey. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAGsTRnXmagB
They list with women each degenerate name, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA5Aihxf419P
Who dares not hazard life for future fame. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAP3UgU3Q77T
These they cashier: the brave remaining few, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAgrAOF1qPSq
Oars, banks, and cables, half consum'd, renew. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAbyZcMRFZ7j
The prince designs a city with the plow; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAzDyJK6PmKm
The lots their sev'ral tenements allow. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA6snRzk0XkG
This part is nam'd from Ilium, that from Troy, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAgMEmSV8B2H
And the new king ascends the throne with joy; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAKQtu2WCvEY
A chosen senate from the people draws; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAUUxtmpKWh5
Appoints the judges, and ordains the laws. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAOdMmyBPGM9
Then, on the top of Eryx, they begin 877Please respect copyright.PENANAAJHaCKyQUR
A rising temple to the Paphian queen. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAcJTQELeXJJ
Anchises, last, is honor'd as a god; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAautjm0Ylfm
A priest is added, annual gifts bestow'd, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAQVjSKa4swt
And groves are planted round his blest abode. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAGYUrE9GoQL
Nine days they pass in feasts, their temples crown'd; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA2lnIvTMV6c
And fumes of incense in the fanes abound. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAsJd3QkYWL9
Then from the south arose a gentle breeze 877Please respect copyright.PENANA73OAWS5eYR
That curl'd the smoothness of the glassy seas; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA7bw81peiBX
The rising winds a ruffling gale afford, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAZWmC0jS89r
And call the merry mariners aboard. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAm0pvvYr0uZ
Now loud laments along the shores resound, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAL8xxjJCZ47
Of parting friends in close embraces bound. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAnVxLUHB5oa
The trembling women, the degenerate train, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAnUyimXXMQp
Who shunn'd the frightful dangers of the main, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAYjxWKpNRhl
Ev'n those desire to sail, and take their share 877Please respect copyright.PENANAQPy3sxwqjb
Of the rough passage and the promis'd war: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAZw7k37JDPL
Whom good Aeneas cheers, and recommends 877Please respect copyright.PENANAaBwGSdaHTr
To their new master's care his fearful friends. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAliquKm5MQr
On Eryx's altars three fat calves he lays; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAEJsJVhdKrG
A lamb new-fallen to the stormy seas; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAAoWXuNIzIM
Then slips his haulsers, and his anchors weighs. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAWFlD2QWfeA
High on the deck the godlike hero stands, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAbTbVesBYlN
With olive crown'd, a charger in his hands; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA4RfVtTSlTJ
Then cast the reeking entrails in the brine, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAvIjW8E5K85
And pour'd the sacrifice of purple wine. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAafRP2FeINs
Fresh gales arise; with equal strokes they vie, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA311OEx0LR4
And brush the buxom seas, and o'er the billows fly. 877Please respect copyright.PENANANszQ8JTdtx
Meantime the mother goddess, full of fears, 877Please respect copyright.PENANApOOS56z69g
To Neptune thus address'd, with tender tears: 877Please respect copyright.PENANA86UxlE8hLG
"The pride of Jove's imperious queen, the rage, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAGVeFazTL3F
The malice which no suff'rings can assuage, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAsnpO7BviOs
Compel me to these pray'rs; since neither fate, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAueydmoPvCW
Nor time, nor pity, can remove her hate: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAaTosOmXYeZ
Ev'n Jove is thwarted by his haughty wife; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAlS0iUOBDAF
Still vanquish'd, yet she still renews the strife. 877Please respect copyright.PENANADPSdByWmNk
As if 't were little to consume the town 877Please respect copyright.PENANAVTSYeFi4SO
Which aw'd the world, and wore th' imperial crown, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAUTitDx38g2
She prosecutes the ghost of Troy with pains, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA1cTLtqk0gF
And gnaws, ev'n to the bones, the last remains. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAEPtKuvgtTr
Let her the causes of her hatred tell; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA621HJlSUs2
But you can witness its effects too well. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA3wdvF13cz5
You saw the storm she rais'd on Libyan floods, 877Please respect copyright.PENANATiDUB0au48
That mix'd the mounting billows with the clouds; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAUmBpxlecF6
When, bribing Aeolus, she shook the main, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAySAH6Xrl2y
And mov'd rebellion in your wat'ry reign. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAEHlp0pvwF9
With fury she possess'd the Dardan dames, 877Please respect copyright.PENANABJgyujXUts
To burn their fleet with execrable flames, 877Please respect copyright.PENANANqX5mwKt33
And forc'd Aeneas, when his ships were lost, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAZJKNQIQPlp
To leave his foll'wers on a foreign coast. 877Please respect copyright.PENANArMss1DlkuG
For what remains, your godhead I implore, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA6P2o3Kj03R
And trust my son to your protecting pow'r. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAEeHmpsrehz
If neither Jove's nor Fate's decree withstand, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAiYmbcXHkE2
Secure his passage to the Latian land." 877Please respect copyright.PENANAuQBuWuzBu2
Then thus the mighty Ruler of the Main: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAYltaQf86jg
"What may not Venus hope from Neptune's reign? 877Please respect copyright.PENANAfJpOkfknjo
My kingdom claims your birth; my late defense 877Please respect copyright.PENANAqrFMzHiDX1
Of your indanger'd fleet may claim your confidence. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA25zRPLHQfd
Nor less by land than sea my deeds declare 877Please respect copyright.PENANAMEMBDuX3z9
How much your lov'd Aeneas is my care. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAzeQHrLjAF6
Thee, Xanthus, and thee, Simois, I attest. 877Please respect copyright.PENANABtLaVSzPlc
Your Trojan troops when proud Achilles press'd, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA6clSX0A7V0
And drove before him headlong on the plain, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAOGTKcIxL7r
And dash'd against the walls the trembling train; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA5R6tQqGaOn
When floods were fill'd with bodies of the slain; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA63jqkB86nG
When crimson Xanthus, doubtful of his way, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAaUsnWGn8WY
Stood up on ridges to behold the sea; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAhveBDBpTg2
(New heaps came tumbling in, and chok'd his way;) 877Please respect copyright.PENANAa56WUbOMLO
When your Aeneas fought, but fought with odds 877Please respect copyright.PENANAvkLKuhpEjH
Of force unequal, and unequal gods; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAOcxPeB8b65
I spread a cloud before the victor's sight, 877Please respect copyright.PENANALgVn2FgQOA
Sustain'd the vanquish'd, and secur'd his flight; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAYgL008E1BV
Ev'n then secur'd him, when I sought with joy 877Please respect copyright.PENANAbPub3HLA8l
The vow'd destruction of ungrateful Troy. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA5sUeF3DihM
My will's the same: fair goddess, fear no more, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAftsDKn1FWj
Your fleet shall safely gain the Latian shore; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA0DwViBO8hQ
Their lives are giv'n; one destin'd head alone 877Please respect copyright.PENANArboomdbNK3
Shall perish, and for multitudes atone." 877Please respect copyright.PENANAVA2FYGV3Wb
Thus having arm'd with hopes her anxious mind, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAnaMhhslJzf
His finny team Saturnian Neptune join'd, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAnIxzKHWydw
Then adds the foamy bridle to their jaws, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAm6IJ7Rfxxu
And to the loosen'd reins permits the laws. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAxwskiJisfu
High on the waves his azure car he guides; 877Please respect copyright.PENANACErTtIxY1v
Its axles thunder, and the sea subsides, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAG5RwxhEv9U
And the smooth ocean rolls her silent tides. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAYQcV3GXFEw
The tempests fly before their father's face, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAY0d4hrhOKd
Trains of inferior gods his triumph grace, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAlaick87fyK
And monster whales before their master play, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAOtZCeT2IuX
And choirs of Tritons crowd the wat'ry way. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAAG5ES7cwmK
The marshal'd pow'rs in equal troops divide 877Please respect copyright.PENANASti7SqjxGk
To right and left; the gods his better side 877Please respect copyright.PENANAcQDEojFwg8
Inclose, and on the worse the Nymphs and Nereids ride. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAV4RpDqdG3k
Now smiling hope, with sweet vicissitude, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAFrPmV0hAxe
Within the hero's mind his joys renew'd. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAV8z5V4c2as
He calls to raise the masts, the sheets display; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA0MssK3Zwy7
The cheerful crew with diligence obey; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAMALw2rVvoW
They scud before the wind, and sail in open sea. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAJ0mY6l2lDB
Ahead of all the master pilot steers; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAdjAt13QLbA
And, as he leads, the following navy veers. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAJ6hmDWI3zb
The steeds of Night had travel'd half the sky, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAGzovEBHm4G
The drowsy rowers on their benches lie, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAkuWJrMmmRq
When the soft God of Sleep, with easy flight, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAkCwQ21bNNh
Descends, and draws behind a trail of light. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAe4aLvviI3C
Thou, Palinurus, art his destin'd prey; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAccZeD7Joys
To thee alone he takes his fatal way. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAhqaNKdl5S0
Dire dreams to thee, and iron sleep, he bears; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAHmUnJzymBg
And, lighting on thy prow, the form of Phorbas wears. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAUAp7l8LFLW
Then thus the traitor god began his tale: 877Please respect copyright.PENANA9gMoUECljD
"The winds, my friend, inspire a pleasing gale; 877Please respect copyright.PENANA4zhLtNQai6
The ships, without thy care, securely sail. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAkbiOsHjgGB
Now steal an hour of sweet repose; and I 877Please respect copyright.PENANACXdiocKBRl
Will take the rudder and thy room supply." 877Please respect copyright.PENANAM3HZKe7g0f
To whom the yawning pilot, half asleep: 877Please respect copyright.PENANAC1ck56lGjH
"Me dost thou bid to trust the treach'rous deep, 877Please respect copyright.PENANA4f0lADBVDH
The harlot smiles of her dissembling face, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAE6A4Nrs5u8
And to her faith commit the Trojan race? 877Please respect copyright.PENANAj3mDVJ8Y00
Shall I believe the Siren South again, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAiOg5oP2EWW
And, oft betray'd, not know the monster main?" 877Please respect copyright.PENANAt58yQxmPmX
He said: his fasten'd hands the rudder keep, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAQmDU3z9ZK6
And, fix'd on heav'n, his eyes repel invading sleep. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA2VPpihXzR0
The god was wroth, and at his temples threw 877Please respect copyright.PENANA730eqfjfny
A branch in Lethe dipp'd, and drunk with Stygian dew: 877Please respect copyright.PENANA7OFQ7JuBiz
The pilot, vanquish'd by the pow'r divine, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAEnpMWt8Ard
Soon clos'd his swimming eyes, and lay supine. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAotIqGVkvyi
Scarce were his limbs extended at their length, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAlL4Ex95Nfq
The god, insulting with superior strength, 877Please respect copyright.PENANApCje0NP1xg
Fell heavy on him, plung'd him in the sea, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAsjeOrqoS3Q
And, with the stern, the rudder tore away. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA73XdoAmBf5
Headlong he fell, and, struggling in the main, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAmcXUEbNmaJ
Cried out for helping hands, but cried in vain. 877Please respect copyright.PENANACPO3MTW6od
The victor daemon mounts obscure in air, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAToU5aRvC2u
While the ship sails without the pilot's care. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAD5kYvDyU0u
On Neptune's faith the floating fleet relies; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAEASoQ2dI8G
But what the man forsook, the god supplies, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAjnvcOzfguT
And o'er the dang'rous deep secure the navy flies; 877Please respect copyright.PENANAg3H8wVwvD2
Glides by the Sirens' cliffs, a shelfy coast, 877Please respect copyright.PENANATM46vGdmga
Long infamous for ships and sailors lost, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAq2QYzmWdg7
And white with bones. Th' impetuous ocean roars, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAiZJQwpYgu6
And rocks rebellow from the sounding shores. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAjbmmmubMTc
The watchful hero felt the knocks, and found 877Please respect copyright.PENANAxw8bwi2er6
The tossing vessel sail'd on shoaly ground. 877Please respect copyright.PENANAIkNO9GHkjn
Sure of his pilot's loss, he takes himself 877Please respect copyright.PENANABpg369njXc
The helm, and steers aloof, and shuns the shelf. 877Please respect copyright.PENANA8BV0YLkD7P
Inly he griev'd, and, groaning from the breast, 877Please respect copyright.PENANABMH2KauKUQ
Deplor'd his death; and thus his pain express'd: 877Please respect copyright.PENANA8NQmUXtt6j
"For faith repos'd on seas, and on the flatt'ring sky, 877Please respect copyright.PENANAQPCjD9Dr7f
Thy naked corpse is doom'd on shores unknown to lie." 877Please respect copyright.PENANA7jJtYHGGmy
