Meantime the Trojan cuts his wat'ry way, 912Please respect copyright.PENANADMrzXaj0vK
Fix'd on his voyage, thro' the curling sea; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAhFYpNo9ZZU
Then, casting back his eyes, with dire amaze, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAPLrpXC3kTE
Sees on the Punic shore the mounting blaze. 912Please respect copyright.PENANARBMPvRyQhx
The cause unknown; yet his presaging mind 912Please respect copyright.PENANAoG5D6ckeKo
The fate of Dido from the fire divin'd; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAMa4t9QezDR
He knew the stormy souls of womankind, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAafYRlb62cS
What secret springs their eager passions move, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA57pVpdypqa
How capable of death for injur'd love. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAmGwKzo5MWa
Dire auguries from hence the Trojans draw; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAVX0o520jAN
Till neither fires nor shining shores they saw. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA1PCBUYJFY4
Now seas and skies their prospect only bound; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAQVTtbuNrho
An empty space above, a floating field around. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAgx1iOye1EJ
But soon the heav'ns with shadows were o'erspread; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAJSIStVFWM9
A swelling cloud hung hov'ring o'er their head: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAX83LtzBVdS
Livid it look'd, the threat'ning of a storm: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAO51yQ2ktJp
Then night and horror ocean's face deform. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAHosTvr5tAH
The pilot, Palinurus, cried aloud: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAQMhuw750fA
"What gusts of weather from that gath'ring cloud 912Please respect copyright.PENANAg2UXyGevFR
My thoughts presage! Ere yet the tempest roars, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAgOmMWWHHKz
Stand to your tackle, mates, and stretch your oars; 912Please respect copyright.PENANA3AGZQtozJS
Contract your swelling sails, and luff to wind." 912Please respect copyright.PENANAN3vBT6elSu
The frighted crew perform the task assign'd. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAYtHb6uBZxh
Then, to his fearless chief: "Not Heav'n," said he, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAOAEhrS4vly
"Tho' Jove himself should promise Italy, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAf0bgARHEPm
Can stem the torrent of this raging sea. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAOcIUAr2YAu
Mark how the shifting winds from west arise, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAo8xUyKhCD6
And what collected night involves the skies! 912Please respect copyright.PENANAw94Rgf1avQ
Nor can our shaken vessels live at sea, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA2r8WEeNGUn
Much less against the tempest force their way. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA5cAsRE9fnU
'T is fate diverts our course, and fate we must obey. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAXJ3bClMWBV
Not far from hence, if I observ'd aright 912Please respect copyright.PENANA2bL6JoAHbo
The southing of the stars, and polar light, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAOKAAmyHKwf
Sicilia lies, whose hospitable shores 912Please respect copyright.PENANAbavyFW1azP
In safety we may reach with struggling oars." 912Please respect copyright.PENANAIUlpBf68sX
Aeneas then replied: "Too sure I find 912Please respect copyright.PENANAph9RsatBTL
We strive in vain against the seas and wind: 912Please respect copyright.PENANA0dn847LrBG
Now shift your sails; what place can please me more 912Please respect copyright.PENANA8Mm96C6Wav
Than what you promise, the Sicilian shore, 912Please respect copyright.PENANApCB4h4ij0i
Whose hallow'd earth Anchises' bones contains, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAQklV61Bor8
And where a prince of Trojan lineage reigns?" 912Please respect copyright.PENANAcdu4WPk4ez
The course resolv'd, before the western wind 912Please respect copyright.PENANAUSnRGVy73P
They scud amain, and make the port assign'd. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAsX0aJWicxt
Meantime Acestes, from a lofty stand, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAyvuPkQ1gWw
Beheld the fleet descending on the land; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAWfNt8r9GVL
And, not unmindful of his ancient race, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAxIFtm71nsA
Down from the cliff he ran with eager pace, 912Please respect copyright.PENANArne3oRJI20
And held the hero in a strict embrace. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAIW0uQqOxK4
Of a rough Libyan bear the spoils he wore, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAAjJXOufHzn
And either hand a pointed jav'lin bore. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA9zlcIlGrJb
His mother was a dame of Dardan blood; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAzCoiU1lNC5
His sire Crinisus, a Sicilian flood. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAyMmn1DXsQI
He welcomes his returning friends ashore 912Please respect copyright.PENANAqixDt66PCx
With plenteous country cates and homely store. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA8KXiwfwEmz
Now, when the following morn had chas'd away 912Please respect copyright.PENANA9xEHKJaX5h
The flying stars, and light restor'd the day, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAlx4Ju6RyKH
Aeneas call'd the Trojan troops around, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA8vRwZQc6R2
And thus bespoke them from a rising ground: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAYjOg1w3HkE
"Offspring of heav'n, divine Dardanian race! 912Please respect copyright.PENANA4c1BGA5a9X
The sun, revolving thro' th' ethereal space, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAJRKHiCqMQX
The shining circle of the year has fill'd, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAe3VTx1HGKi
Since first this isle my father's ashes held: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAV5K48RXOkv
And now the rising day renews the year; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAAoiCJI3H3U
A day for ever sad, for ever dear. 912Please respect copyright.PENANATKoCiqLmcs
This would I celebrate with annual games, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAGOo2olw27d
With gifts on altars pil'd, and holy flames, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAujdACtaWpM
Tho' banish'd to Gaetulia's barren sands, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA25zXxZhIeO
Caught on the Grecian seas, or hostile lands: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAyeLt8WBYwG
But since this happy storm our fleet has driv'n 912Please respect copyright.PENANAnOEaelfsBF
(Not, as I deem, without the will of Heav'n) 912Please respect copyright.PENANASs7LbQY9w0
Upon these friendly shores and flow'ry plains, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAeeUCse6q6W
Which hide Anchises and his blest remains, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAF9TgsRsfP6
Let us with joy perform his honors due, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAe3EaKS7z02
And pray for prosp'rous winds, our voyage to renew; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAk7dM9EmAaP
Pray, that in towns and temples of our own, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAcrHZI4xo09
The name of great Anchises may be known, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAEvSvjoTDiK
And yearly games may spread the gods' renown. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA5L2HTVN5A9
Our sports Acestes, of the Trojan race, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAmcNlD9QetQ
With royal gifts ordain'd, is pleas'd to grace: 912Please respect copyright.PENANA4A3QcejhuM
Two steers on ev'ry ship the king bestows; 912Please respect copyright.PENANA4ldQcSivFX
His gods and ours shall share your equal vows. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAzHp3bHcMob
Besides, if, nine days hence, the rosy morn 912Please respect copyright.PENANArQHmX59yXE
Shall with unclouded light the skies adorn, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAbfPusAjdn8
That day with solemn sports I mean to grace: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAtbndaEJqIP
Light galleys on the seas shall run a wat'ry race; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAeBrNU95rfe
Some shall in swiftness for the goal contend, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAmZyuH1Y4Uy
And others try the twanging bow to bend; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAQ25nfUb2JK
The strong, with iron gauntlets arm'd, shall stand 912Please respect copyright.PENANAmvOB2fCdX3
Oppos'd in combat on the yellow sand. 912Please respect copyright.PENANADDIo5Ayc1p
Let all be present at the games prepar'd, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAoovaWnFeva
And joyful victors wait the just reward. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAoDI5zEwXru
But now assist the rites, with garlands crown'd." 912Please respect copyright.PENANAqIqdZNtIuJ
He said, and first his brows with myrtle bound. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAe0A62TIGAK
Then Helymus, by his example led, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAw1CK1uOnqP
And old Acestes, each adorn'd his head; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAaf8ceIzGki
Thus young Ascanius, with a sprightly grace, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAotCrWAkXr7
His temples tied, and all the Trojan race. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAos5g362gsC
Aeneas then advanc'd amidst the train, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAmWf6amekBB
By thousands follow'd thro' the flow'ry plain, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAmgS6I0bLlD
To great Anchises' tomb; which when he found, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAmkLmYehJRf
He pour'd to Bacchus, on the hallow'd ground, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAkWAuLlExzi
Two bowls of sparkling wine, of milk two more, 912Please respect copyright.PENANACUgEzcjTFi
And two (from offer'd bulls) of purple gore, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAAEzhlPhqfZ
With roses then the sepulcher he strow'd 912Please respect copyright.PENANAznaitXERME
And thus his father's ghost bespoke aloud: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAN2AmRjprcJ
"Hail, O ye holy manes! hail again, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAEwbRUf10I3
Paternal ashes, now review'd in vain! 912Please respect copyright.PENANAGB83MZFfbG
The gods permitted not, that you, with me, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAV8EckUjTsU
Should reach the promis'd shores of Italy, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAgwF75Q0O5v
Or Tiber's flood, what flood soe'er it be." 912Please respect copyright.PENANAnxh7zZUhYX
Scarce had he finish'd, when, with speckled pride, 912Please respect copyright.PENANACJZx02mOLb
A serpent from the tomb began to glide; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAVtjKtGMcoR
His hugy bulk on sev'n high volumes roll'd; 912Please respect copyright.PENANALaJQ0aYin8
Blue was his breadth of back, but streak'd with scaly gold: 912Please respect copyright.PENANA2shNwzZts7
Thus riding on his curls, he seem'd to pass 912Please respect copyright.PENANAohfpP4ADeb
A rolling fire along, and singe the grass. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAOCndMaiX0y
More various colors thro' his body run, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAwy4wsUT3ut
Than Iris when her bow imbibes the sun. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAl1AQNbbmJL
Betwixt the rising altars, and around, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA3jKF13rU3l
The sacred monster shot along the ground; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAVDsuofOk5i
With harmless play amidst the bowls he pass'd, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAvNG0wok3PN
And with his lolling tongue assay'd the taste: 912Please respect copyright.PENANA0FM3dEn1Pe
Thus fed with holy food, the wondrous guest 912Please respect copyright.PENANAqqUt56AO6h
Within the hollow tomb retir'd to rest. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAfR4ujNabWh
The pious prince, surpris'd at what he view'd, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAciZYn5dhbr
The fun'ral honors with more zeal renew'd, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA4SSfWWeAOY
Doubtful if this place's genius were, 912Please respect copyright.PENANArxofpvg6nD
Or guardian of his father's sepulcher. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAjDirgoBl8v
Five sheep, according to the rites, he slew; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAWSSeZPpP5C
As many swine, and steers of sable hue; 912Please respect copyright.PENANArhZluNAWQI
New gen'rous wine he from the goblets pour'd. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAJpJTjsSv9o
And call'd his father's ghost, from hell restor'd. 912Please respect copyright.PENANArBHdf5fb76
The glad attendants in long order come, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA1qq0CZVJPc
Off'ring their gifts at great Anchises' tomb: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAD42kHWHTks
Some add more oxen: some divide the spoil; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAlFVAwyNNvS
Some place the chargers on the grassy soil; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAoAzazEJEq3
Some blow the fires, and off entrails broil. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAFLLCo1vt0X
Now came the day desir'd. The skies were bright 912Please respect copyright.PENANArTnc0X8Kuj
With rosy luster of the rising light: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAQD5pcArC51
The bord'ring people, rous'd by sounding fame 912Please respect copyright.PENANAgq5h1Uab1G
Of Trojan feasts and great Acestes' name, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAHOfs7tIvOo
The crowded shore with acclamations fill, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAHQySmrXOLP
Part to behold, and part to prove their skill. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAXCFTEIp0cY
And first the gifts in public view they place, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAOg9cGr10fy
Green laurel wreaths, and palm, the victors' grace: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAeUqbHQ2RJt
Within the circle, arms and tripods lie, 912Please respect copyright.PENANApZV7lzzUCs
Ingots of gold and silver, heap'd on high, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAS0rCe9etLN
And vests embroider'd, of the Tyrian dye. 912Please respect copyright.PENANABmPGfSgIRJ
The trumpet's clangor then the feast proclaims, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAz4G0uK8E8f
And all prepare for their appointed games. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAYp8h68c1FC
Four galleys first, which equal rowers bear, 912Please respect copyright.PENANACVznRVCU9b
Advancing, in the wat'ry lists appear. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAtkjMPgecoP
The speedy Dolphin, that outstrips the wind, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAF9SCvKx5qt
Bore Mnestheus, author of the Memmian kind: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAo2ztPViUmS
Gyas the vast Chimaera's bulk commands, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA0DY3lrgLiG
Which rising, like a tow'ring city stands; 912Please respect copyright.PENANA3X8MZSyC9i
Three Trojans tug at ev'ry lab'ring oar; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAz49Ixot43G
Three banks in three degrees the sailors bore; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAPGTnITAbwb
Beneath their sturdy strokes the billows roar. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA1s2RJWX1sR
Sergesthus, who began the Sergian race, 912Please respect copyright.PENANANNeWp3HcLF
In the great Centaur took the leading place; 912Please respect copyright.PENANA3kVlV9HY5b
Cloanthus on the sea-green Scylla stood, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAhLgiDMDHXW
From whom Cluentius draws his Trojan blood. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAuhTokGnWIc
Far in the sea, against the foaming shore, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAZo6S1DbzO5
There stands a rock: the raging billows roar 912Please respect copyright.PENANAxk0RuFUZVh
Above his head in storms; but, when 't is clear, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA6M6h4iuHRl
Uncurl their ridgy backs, and at his foot appear. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAf6gQmlsQZz
In peace below the gentle waters run; 912Please respect copyright.PENANA3C31E2TtOI
The cormorants above lie basking in the sun. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAU8IXCXi3bx
On this the hero fix'd an oak in sight, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAmzv0iJtuZt
The mark to guide the mariners aright. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAiNN37OdGga
To bear with this, the seamen stretch their oars; 912Please respect copyright.PENANA1jJ5ZEgqT3
Then round the rock they steer, and seek the former shores. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAxuNSSX9S9I
The lots decide their place. Above the rest, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA6b355HlE21
Each leader shining in his Tyrian vest; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAglb0LNJf2q
The common crew with wreaths of poplar boughs 912Please respect copyright.PENANACQdiYuxJfE
Their temples crown, and shade their sweaty brows: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAr46xI51Vj9
Besmear'd with oil, their naked shoulders shine. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA3AgXKdVRYY
All take their seats, and wait the sounding sign: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAVvVpxDogP1
They gripe their oars; and ev'ry panting breast 912Please respect copyright.PENANA9dWVRBxUQT
Is rais'd by turns with hope, by turns with fear depress'd. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAlmtO595L6C
The clangor of the trumpet gives the sign; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAEyePujpa7x
At once they start, advancing in a line: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAdj6xnRxsX2
With shouts the sailors rend the starry skies; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAk5vnQqaoSV
Lash'd with their oars, the smoky billows rise; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAsG7YcVXIGm
Sparkles the briny main, and the vex'd ocean fries. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAGlzG2K5UIg
Exact in time, with equal strokes they row: 912Please respect copyright.PENANA0GqX6xFzno
At once the brushing oars and brazen prow 912Please respect copyright.PENANAKoF7HI4142
Dash up the sandy waves, and ope the depths below. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAhsemT85VL9
Not fiery coursers, in a chariot race, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA0lDv1XiRDg
Invade the field with half so swift a pace; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAhWGvL9Ley7
Not the fierce driver with more fury lends 912Please respect copyright.PENANAoYdG2IADcz
The sounding lash, and, ere the stroke descends, 912Please respect copyright.PENANARCqb0dqkXu
Low to the wheels his pliant body bends. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAqYOSXWQImb
The partial crowd their hopes and fears divide, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAZ7TsjZUWa7
And aid with eager shouts the favor'd side. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAImcCiUdIZq
Cries, murmurs, clamors, with a mixing sound, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAChZOR5ogyq
From woods to woods, from hills to hills rebound. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAqmqTIZz4tQ
Amidst the loud applauses of the shore, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAe1E5r4vGM1
Gyas outstripp'd the rest, and sprung before: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAEKosko7EwE
Cloanthus, better mann'd, pursued him fast, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAZuzV5jDK6O
But his o'er-masted galley check'd his haste. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAockNrmONjp
The Centaur and the Dolphin brush the brine 912Please respect copyright.PENANAb965cOGxbE
With equal oars, advancing in a line; 912Please respect copyright.PENANA6xQlCA13Hm
And now the mighty Centaur seems to lead, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA54m2Vo9dSB
And now the speedy Dolphin gets ahead; 912Please respect copyright.PENANA9dYwjq2Fko
Now board to board the rival vessels row, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAKkjnWA9YC3
The billows lave the skies, and ocean groans below. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA5VRQ6hkDQJ
They reach'd the mark. Proud Gyas and his train 912Please respect copyright.PENANARTGsYJm0RB
In triumph rode, the victors of the main; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAJdtEQKrFOE
But, steering round, he charg'd his pilot stand 912Please respect copyright.PENANANPVDdp4bD1
More close to shore, and skim along the sand- 912Please respect copyright.PENANAAlK2pMYltH
"Let others bear to sea!" Menoetes heard; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAe5BHxfxqEm
But secret shelves too cautiously he fear'd, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAvtcPjiyBjd
And, fearing, sought the deep; and still aloof he steer'd. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAr3zgDmQ1KW
With louder cries the captain call'd again: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAwblPcwaLFY
"Bear to the rocky shore, and shun the main." 912Please respect copyright.PENANAihKovUL3Sr
He spoke, and, speaking, at his stern he saw 912Please respect copyright.PENANAzA7Flb2udT
The bold Cloanthus near the shelvings draw. 912Please respect copyright.PENANANhu3XVgumO
Betwixt the mark and him the Scylla stood, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAHUxOeLQ7vF
And in a closer compass plow'd the flood. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAxrYjvg3d8c
He pass'd the mark; and, wheeling, got before: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAQO7A4PPkiG
Gyas blasphem'd the gods, devoutly swore, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAGYfshaK1cZ
Cried out for anger, and his hair he tore. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAv4vvMm9ELE
Mindless of others' lives (so high was grown 912Please respect copyright.PENANAPvtozyRoFU
His rising rage) and careless of his own, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAoAE9HwBA2e
The trembling dotard to the deck he drew; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAJA3pHubKgL
Then hoisted up, and overboard he threw: 912Please respect copyright.PENANADDuat0QSU0
This done, he seiz'd the helm; his fellows cheer'd, 912Please respect copyright.PENANABTJC7GkEHi
Turn'd short upon the shelfs, and madly steer'd. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAxc42CkljcX
Hardly his head the plunging pilot rears, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAmAN9PEbzi4
Clogg'd with his clothes, and cumber'd with his years: 912Please respect copyright.PENANA65JzDLCSwA
Now dropping wet, he climbs the cliff with pain. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAdjKC02ssvN
The crowd, that saw him fall and float again, 912Please respect copyright.PENANARJWxHIuNoA
Shout from the distant shore; and loudly laugh'd, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAhEKg20z4ER
To see his heaving breast disgorge the briny draught. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA8ANO7InqLt
The following Centaur, and the Dolphin's crew, 912Please respect copyright.PENANASX6S01rLyp
Their vanish'd hopes of victory renew; 912Please respect copyright.PENANACvnfyeOgz8
While Gyas lags, they kindle in the race, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAQRY3FsN9cy
To reach the mark. Sergesthus takes the place; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAaFzK08BcZ3
Mnestheus pursues; and while around they wind, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAnHd9PhpcvU
Comes up, not half his galley's length behind; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAZqte6jnLS2
Then, on the deck, amidst his mates appear'd, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAFS4SYXbGq8
And thus their drooping courage he cheer'd: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAJkg2fKcDmz
"My friends, and Hector's followers heretofore, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAUQHGsv3Ere
Exert your vigor; tug the lab'ring oar; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAqOYHZOVcmI
Stretch to your strokes, my still unconquer'd crew, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAuHYvGo3yey
Whom from the flaming walls of Troy I drew. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAtip8MyAdyl
In this, our common int'rest, let me find 912Please respect copyright.PENANAgBRK3zl4dU
That strength of hand, that courage of the mind, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAjwEshPjOsA
As when you stemm'd the strong Malean flood, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA5ZpgiT2gFv
And o'er the Syrtes' broken billows row'd. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA2LWWpWmUoa
I seek not now the foremost palm to gain; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAfiwWUVbl8x
Tho' yet- but, ah! that haughty wish is vain! 912Please respect copyright.PENANAs6fXXWIB3X
Let those enjoy it whom the gods ordain. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAporaXjiSsG
But to be last, the lags of all the race!- 912Please respect copyright.PENANAjWQ3aYMyiU
Redeem yourselves and me from that disgrace." 912Please respect copyright.PENANA2Ar9997GAf
Now, one and all, they tug amain; they row 912Please respect copyright.PENANAFTUy5xflOa
At the full stretch, and shake the brazen prow. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA09q0rxyaFQ
The sea beneath 'em sinks; their lab'ring sides 912Please respect copyright.PENANAhDLeXKKeVl
Are swell'd, and sweat runs gutt'ring down in tides. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAaFYmCLznmA
Chance aids their daring with unhop'd success; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAoymZ3Vo80e
Sergesthus, eager with his beak to press 912Please respect copyright.PENANAaQOwVEKEFK
Betwixt the rival galley and the rock, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAMqOD4CfxLC
Shuts up th' unwieldly Centaur in the lock. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAoFNWXV77a8
The vessel struck; and, with the dreadful shock, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAUNIWjFMGY1
Her oars she shiver'd, and her head she broke. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAoYOY9JfyHO
The trembling rowers from their banks arise, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAGDUfgRXL8R
And, anxious for themselves, renounce the prize. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA42JtPZdU5t
With iron poles they heave her off the shores, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAMrqo8lFwTm
And gather from the sea their floating oars. 912Please respect copyright.PENANApNHwWq2vo7
The crew of Mnestheus, with elated minds, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAg10eTrBR1N
Urge their success, and call the willing winds; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAe0gGOYMBdz
Then ply their oars, and cut their liquid way 912Please respect copyright.PENANA61Nzf4Txmq
In larger compass on the roomy sea. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAJLUnf2zzRR
As, when the dove her rocky hold forsakes, 912Please respect copyright.PENANABcPlE7nEfS
Rous'd in a fright, her sounding wings she shakes; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAcFo38IKV1y
The cavern rings with clatt'ring; out she flies, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAli3bzDctBh
And leaves her callow care, and cleaves the skies: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAiC0TCQ6dXc
At first she flutters; but at length she springs 912Please respect copyright.PENANARJnA0sdYW4
To smoother flight, and shoots upon her wings: 912Please respect copyright.PENANABJNX7JCfiv
So Mnestheus in the Dolphin cuts the sea; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAKBFIejW3H2
And, flying with a force, that force assists his way. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAbCXox2LpkA
Sergesthus in the Centaur soon he pass'd, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAC3tWmhDXtf
Wedg'd in the rocky shoals, and sticking fast. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAwGrW1gtSZV
In vain the victor he with cries implores, 912Please respect copyright.PENANASElIFABLB0
And practices to row with shatter'd oars. 912Please respect copyright.PENANACS1arhvW0r
Then Mnestheus bears with Gyas, and outflies: 912Please respect copyright.PENANA1lqjFuR3An
The ship, without a pilot, yields the prize. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA25pPGnc5CO
Unvanquish'd Scylla now alone remains; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAybrhrjRuXU
Her he pursues, and all his vigor strains. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAKDcgTBqIaz
Shouts from the fav'ring multitude arise; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAV1oT70houv
Applauding Echo to the shouts replies; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAICDwCxznyW
Shouts, wishes, and applause run rattling thro' the skies. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAmhOM2Mvntg
These clamors with disdain the Scylla heard, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAETUs4nV3qt
Much grudg'd the praise, but more the robb'd reward: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAdIddjawGVx
Resolv'd to hold their own, they mend their pace, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAbIiFVLBhe3
All obstinate to die, or gain the race. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA40kTdMZk2G
Rais'd with success, the Dolphin swiftly ran; 912Please respect copyright.PENANARkifrifjdZ
For they can conquer, who believe they can. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAtEJyiKBCEB
Both urge their oars, and fortune both supplies, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAi4AZIlwH1Z
And both perhaps had shar'd an equal prize; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAQpEMDd0K6l
When to the seas Cloanthus holds his hands, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAVrDEFBc3uk
And succor from the wat'ry pow'rs demands: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAcRDClHoAzM
"Gods of the liquid realms, on which I row! 912Please respect copyright.PENANAX7gAgNv3hJ
If, giv'n by you, the laurel bind my brow, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA5ZPOGqIUFX
Assist to make me guilty of my vow! 912Please respect copyright.PENANA6wxxEXW3qw
A snow-white bull shall on your shore be slain; 912Please respect copyright.PENANATjJkj7yOl0
His offer'd entrails cast into the main, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAVjEsJzayeb
And ruddy wine, from golden goblets thrown, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAhVouq8szJB
Your grateful gift and my return shall own." 912Please respect copyright.PENANAO3QogSYIXR
The choir of nymphs, and Phorcus, from below, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAK1n7kUDKjt
With virgin Panopea, heard his vow; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAccVeTauduM
And old Portunus, with his breadth of hand, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAmCC1b13Tjh
Push'd on, and sped the galley to the land. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAeL13SucpKc
Swift as a shaft, or winged wind, she flies, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAoCOcLaT8am
And, darting to the port, obtains the prize. 912Please respect copyright.PENANANlCt3m5rlh
The herald summons all, and then proclaims 912Please respect copyright.PENANA4Y1l1Iq0XD
Cloanthus conqu'ror of the naval games. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAhZhLC1FjFW
The prince with laurel crowns the victor's head, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAQtZ2SeMGB9
And three fat steers are to his vessel led, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAcQ8rll4BOL
The ship's reward; with gen'rous wine beside, 912Please respect copyright.PENANApwOBYTE9De
And sums of silver, which the crew divide. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAqLMENdnUVe
The leaders are distinguish'd from the rest; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAibi7akBM9P
The victor honor'd with a nobler vest, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAVfjrEMw94N
Where gold and purple strive in equal rows, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA4sFi4YkjRc
And needlework its happy cost bestows. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAQRIE12Ujpw
There Ganymede is wrought with living art, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAgR47Ga9x7Y
Chasing thro' Ida's groves the trembling hart: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAZkdz2xhaO0
Breathless he seems, yet eager to pursue; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAmDcs1vfo0i
When from aloft descends, in open view, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAFjAePFCZX1
The bird of Jove, and, sousing on his prey, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAIsux5myZuP
With crooked talons bears the boy away. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAOpbbMtTSCP
In vain, with lifted hands and gazing eyes, 912Please respect copyright.PENANATHVtUm2GYc
His guards behold him soaring thro' the skies, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAt3kUSlpW5T
And dogs pursue his flight with imitated cries. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA9xtun8CPjE
Mnestheus the second victor was declar'd; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAZmSYBjZV43
And, summon'd there, the second prize he shard. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA5YvvAiMFGW
A coat of mail, brave Demoleus bore, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAmyRgxfuy1g
More brave Aeneas from his shoulders tore, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAaVliHkMPG6
In single combat on the Trojan shore: 912Please respect copyright.PENANA6LxVvgqTtK
This was ordain'd for Mnestheus to possess; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAJIRhitzITE
In war for his defense, for ornament in peace. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAtGmsdovcxK
Rich was the gift, and glorious to behold, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAqMu3Wq3fP1
But yet so pond'rous with its plates of gold, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA02wisG4hWo
That scarce two servants could the weight sustain; 912Please respect copyright.PENANACtTa6Tsl0g
Yet, loaded thus, Demoleus o'er the plain 912Please respect copyright.PENANAZBgMirSOpb
Pursued and lightly seiz'd the Trojan train. 912Please respect copyright.PENANANUjs51J7f8
The third, succeeding to the last reward, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAMJVmsRt2ta
Two goodly bowls of massy silver shar'd, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAEYk9VjxPFT
With figures prominent, and richly wrought, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAzYsy7fuqB7
And two brass caldrons from Dodona brought. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAQO39TYIsbW
Thus all, rewarded by the hero's hands, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAAlInVQifnG
Their conqu'ring temples bound with purple bands; 912Please respect copyright.PENANADxcg6seNWE
And now Sergesthus, clearing from the rock, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA1eiP8gJUBH
Brought back his galley shatter'd with the shock. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAM3xNZ6xI1G
Forlorn she look'd, without an aiding oar, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAMd6OyNV7xi
And, houted by the vulgar, made to shore. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA2RUxPAQz9t
As when a snake, surpris'd upon the road, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAms5FxUESCN
Is crush'd athwart her body by the load 912Please respect copyright.PENANAsKrErmZPd9
Of heavy wheels; or with a mortal wound 912Please respect copyright.PENANAlfjff8KcVY
Her belly bruis'd, and trodden to the ground: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAZsejiYcEsn
In vain, with loosen'd curls, she crawls along; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAkoKdy4p6hz
Yet, fierce above, she brandishes her tongue; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAdvMSD86uYA
Glares with her eyes, and bristles with her scales; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAMvzXwzX7LB
But, groveling in the dust, her parts unsound she trails: 912Please respect copyright.PENANATw0FNGOSTy
So slowly to the port the Centaur tends, 912Please respect copyright.PENANApcuKBu5JQb
But, what she wants in oars, with sails amends. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAmhBgU6FElg
Yet, for his galley sav'd, the grateful prince 912Please respect copyright.PENANARU7WvfEtiz
Is pleas'd th' unhappy chief to recompense. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAOkAmNnUAuF
Pholoe, the Cretan slave, rewards his care, 912Please respect copyright.PENANArWEud4kT2j
Beauteous herself, with lovely twins as fair. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAAVmLO9xxDS
From thence his way the Trojan hero bent 912Please respect copyright.PENANAqkyPK8UHs9
Into the neighb'ring plain, with mountains pent, 912Please respect copyright.PENANABFPkABlrrk
Whose sides were shaded with surrounding wood. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAE5Q7u2ds9P
Full in the midst of this fair valley stood 912Please respect copyright.PENANA8GZAcIMqsr
A native theater, which, rising slow 912Please respect copyright.PENANAqrpCTPz89c
By just degrees, o'erlook'd the ground below. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAYUid7QQdW7
High on a sylvan throne the leader sate; 912Please respect copyright.PENANA0r5vcvSE0p
A num'rous train attend in solemn state. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAdohJnADZpc
Here those that in the rapid course delight, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA6kgfBq4LUJ
Desire of honor and the prize invite. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAkMvrLg3kDi
The rival runners without order stand; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAKnTNORFXMp
The Trojans mix'd with the Sicilian band. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAvYyFFsyPZY
First Nisus, with Euryalus, appears; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAbq5UCZGueI
Euryalus a boy of blooming years, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAO6Vq0Q3Jdu
With sprightly grace and equal beauty crown'd; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAUgjyBaEmSu
Nisus, for friendship to the youth renown'd. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAqj7Ng3T3hx
Diores next, of Priam's royal race, 912Please respect copyright.PENANANGcO5kQJxg
Then Salius joined with Patron, took their place; 912Please respect copyright.PENANATOFWZJsJRb
(But Patron in Arcadia had his birth, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA1usGUrSlQF
And Salius his from Arcananian earth;) 912Please respect copyright.PENANA77GAQSFGTk
Then two Sicilian youths- the names of these, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA7UcFH3GOev
Swift Helymus, and lovely Panopes: 912Please respect copyright.PENANADKAFP8t0Yc
Both jolly huntsmen, both in forest bred, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAvVRk8hPJS1
And owning old Acestes for their head; 912Please respect copyright.PENANA7OuQ8DLseP
With sev'ral others of ignobler name, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAbocpJOhT4M
Whom time has not deliver'd o'er to fame. 912Please respect copyright.PENANACcHc0ySCmH
To these the hero thus his thoughts explain'd, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAOVvaLZwcFH
In words which gen'ral approbation gain'd: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAngY5fYgTNG
"One common largess is for all design'd, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAbXetIPta1v
(The vanquish'd and the victor shall be join'd,) 912Please respect copyright.PENANAHYdQDiJcF7
Two darts of polish'd steel and Gnosian wood, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAS7pznMxbx3
A silver-studded ax, alike bestow'd. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAxQbVAs2ryn
The foremost three have olive wreaths decreed: 912Please respect copyright.PENANA6roCQNlDXu
The first of these obtains a stately steed, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAguCW7p1yho
Adorn'd with trappings; and the next in fame, 912Please respect copyright.PENANACZBSkUOw7i
The quiver of an Amazonian dame, 912Please respect copyright.PENANALhLPfsQiX5
With feather'd Thracian arrows well supplied: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAssTZTS2sCy
A golden belt shall gird his manly side, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAu46yB7Okr8
Which with a sparkling diamond shall be tied. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA5sHjfOssGd
The third this Grecian helmet shall content." 912Please respect copyright.PENANAPMXsjMUvbk
He said. To their appointed base they went; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAQMGkiQE16Y
With beating hearts th' expected sign receive, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAqPxWhKrjPl
And, starting all at once, the barrier leave. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAPqHMRPLun5
Spread out, as on the winged winds, they flew, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAxARzx8Ommt
And seiz'd the distant goal with greedy view. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAVDMe7tBP81
Shot from the crowd, swift Nisus all o'erpass'd; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAWwOzB4qBqk
Nor storms, nor thunder, equal half his haste. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA2h249xjtrF
The next, but tho' the next, yet far disjoin'd, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAteRO2Rt6Q5
Came Salius, and Euryalus behind; 912Please respect copyright.PENANA0fEmWOx7SS
Then Helymus, whom young Diores plied, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAw6zomUOjSd
Step after step, and almost side by side, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAOlIT7a8HJq
His shoulders pressing; and, in longer space, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAbx2aw6ULKB
Had won, or left at least a dubious race. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAcESJaoV1lx
Now, spent, the goal they almost reach at last, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAmbVVLMNVx9
When eager Nisus, hapless in his haste, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAweAHkemY4h
Slipp'd first, and, slipping, fell upon the plain, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA6QKHzftAey
Soak'd with the blood of oxen newly slain. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA4ZuJ2uqNYk
The careless victor had not mark'd his way; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAY1Xhdu3F0D
But, treading where the treach'rous puddle lay, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAccRMOHSm0Q
His heels flew up; and on the grassy floor 912Please respect copyright.PENANAk3Dm1ojE3I
He fell, besmear'd with filth and holy gore. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAaDf7qKVlYo
Not mindless then, Euryalus, of thee, 912Please respect copyright.PENANABpROzUa9Gr
Nor of the sacred bonds of amity, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAvmQK0WQgoC
He strove th' immediate rival's hope to cross, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAtjlhyhgv6V
And caught the foot of Salius as he rose. 912Please respect copyright.PENANACCiwIFmDLs
So Salius lay extended on the plain; 912Please respect copyright.PENANA0Gqu58DzS7
Euryalus springs out, the prize to gain, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA9AMI0g6q47
And leaves the crowd: applauding peals attend 912Please respect copyright.PENANAEh75zBNy2a
The victor to the goal, who vanquish'd by his friend. 912Please respect copyright.PENANANa3vHFC6tw
Next Helymus; and then Diores came, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAzZw05uIVFD
By two misfortunes made the third in fame. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA6af3hk5PLC
But Salius enters, and, exclaiming loud 912Please respect copyright.PENANAf8R2Lql0ZU
For justice, deafens and disturbs the crowd; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAKPMuxqpkjz
Urges his cause may in the court be heard; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAoZzHVoBwkS
And pleads the prize is wrongfully conferr'd. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAtezUol7nzk
But favor for Euryalus appears; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAb8PeKKmRuP
His blooming beauty, with his tender tears, 912Please respect copyright.PENANABaNxmGKvY6
Had brib'd the judges for the promis'd prize. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAYaW3EqBPd7
Besides, Diores fills the court with cries, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAFnQ4tzCLGo
Who vainly reaches at the last reward, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA3kQIoLptS7
If the first palm on Salius be conferr'd. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAluxAA5ybcY
Then thus the prince: "Let no disputes arise: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAaH5N8BZcoM
Where fortune plac'd it, I award the prize. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA42vgYbK0Qn
But fortune's errors give me leave to mend, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAlskiDtghZ0
At least to pity my deserving friend." 912Please respect copyright.PENANA56X3LJcJL0
He said, and, from among the spoils, he draws 912Please respect copyright.PENANAG26LEAViIw
(Pond'rous with shaggy mane and golden paws) 912Please respect copyright.PENANAZyNbPRNot8
A lion's hide: to Salius this he gives. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAgHIGXah5mf
Nisus with envy sees the gift, and grieves. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA53FFV6EUA9
"If such rewards to vanquish'd men are due." 912Please respect copyright.PENANAuShicI6UKl
He said, "and falling is to rise by you, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAnCrupCaTIV
What prize may Nisus from your bounty claim, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAd9oud13tFI
Who merited the first rewards and fame? 912Please respect copyright.PENANAdgDyc86lDV
In falling, both an equal fortune tried; 912Please respect copyright.PENANArZ5ltRRV0l
Would fortune for my fall so well provide!" 912Please respect copyright.PENANAIaDx5dLUlT
With this he pointed to his face, and show'd 912Please respect copyright.PENANAtiBnNShKTP
His hand and all his habit smear'd with blood. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAoqwTP8MZz8
Th' indulgent father of the people smil'd, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAjPw20cBhbt
And caus'd to be produc'd an ample shield, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA1B0DfeXJ1I
Of wondrous art, by Didymaon wrought, 912Please respect copyright.PENANANfu3KOjVKH
Long since from Neptune's bars in triumph brought. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAFRTX4oERcc
This giv'n to Nisus, he divides the rest, 912Please respect copyright.PENANACt7BjfBHF3
And equal justice in his gifts express'd. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAzffqvbTVz9
The race thus ended, and rewards bestow'd, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA1MZMMDqiLy
Once more the princes bespeaks th' attentive crowd: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAdgSQnbnX6i
"If there he here whose dauntless courage dare 912Please respect copyright.PENANALkwIGGXXti
In gauntlet-fight, with limbs and body bare, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAxuY1KT7Nqm
His opposite sustain in open view, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA02n9gOYeaM
Stand forth the champion, and the games renew. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAKcnLfBkaaX
Two prizes I propose, and thus divide: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAHKKGayZZNz
A bull with gilded horns, and fillets tied, 912Please respect copyright.PENANASa9wPHVQbd
Shall be the portion of the conqu'ring chief; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAuwYyWt7LlJ
A sword and helm shall cheer the loser's grief." 912Please respect copyright.PENANAAlLUXgvpGu
Then haughty Dares in the lists appears; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAwaWtXBPuxi
Stalking he strides, his head erected bears: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAyGmaq3ugPa
His nervous arms the weighty gauntlet wield, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAAmFlT11u5l
And loud applauses echo thro' the field. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAiHE3YwUN9x
Dares alone in combat us'd to stand 912Please respect copyright.PENANAk7yTdzcIlr
The match of mighty Paris, hand to hand; 912Please respect copyright.PENANA8S5FkfhqIH
The same, at Hector's fun'rals, undertook 912Please respect copyright.PENANAvRTZKs6bkI
Gigantic Butes, of th' Amycian stock, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAB16QCcTOlz
And, by the stroke of his resistless hand, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAHuIH7x6Kx8
Stretch'd the vast bulk upon the yellow sand. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAR46EyToExL
Such Dares was; and such he strode along, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA7tOJZ5zpkH
And drew the wonder of the gazing throng. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAz0gaOhOMSi
His brawny back and ample breast he shows, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAplTFX9JvBx
His lifted arms around his head he throws, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAG6huwpDAFr
And deals in whistling air his empty blows. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA6paE4RluIe
His match is sought; but, thro' the trembling band, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAWsQse8pm2w
Not one dares answer to the proud demand. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA3gbYWCZMWQ
Presuming of his force, with sparkling eyes 912Please respect copyright.PENANAZpYCX5Izg2
Already he devours the promis'd prize. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAFxM2NvEhT4
He claims the bull with awless insolence, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA5kUjOYoa3A
And having seiz'd his horns, accosts the prince: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAIfJBUXSlvP
"If none my matchless valor dares oppose, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAdBhz4HRW1t
How long shall Dares wait his dastard foes? 912Please respect copyright.PENANAD9GgVox1ZX
Permit me, chief, permit without delay, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAayWwunPZPi
To lead this uncontended gift away." 912Please respect copyright.PENANAwmBS8GYThG
The crowd assents, and with redoubled cries 912Please respect copyright.PENANAPiSc8F6aKg
For the proud challenger demands the prize. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAdVVcQOhO32
Acestes, fir'd with just disdain, to see 912Please respect copyright.PENANAOpdQX5mJbO
The palm usurp'd without a victory, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAUjskMUacmb
Reproach'd Entellus thus, who sate beside, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAg7DtEYaMDg
And heard and saw, unmov'd, the Trojan's pride: 912Please respect copyright.PENANA3S7uIcU1Jl
"Once, but in vain, a champion of renown, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAgEI0YoRzaw
So tamely can you bear the ravish'd crown, 912Please respect copyright.PENANADe8ryQUWC1
A prize in triumph borne before your sight, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAwYHMe0I3oz
And shun, for fear, the danger of the fight? 912Please respect copyright.PENANAyDC7rEKLlu
Where is our Eryx now, the boasted name, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAp5aGhcBm4J
The god who taught your thund'ring arm the game? 912Please respect copyright.PENANAzFC5cc2r5L
Where now your baffled honor? Where the spoil 912Please respect copyright.PENANAF42eLPnsXV
That fill'd your house, and fame that fill'd our isle?" 912Please respect copyright.PENANAIeRzMcO8BU
Entellus, thus: "My soul is still the same, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA3HbyOjmk3v
Unmov'd with fear, and mov'd with martial fame; 912Please respect copyright.PENANASkn9fuiBXd
But my chill blood is curdled in my veins, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAhsmoEhuYUS
And scarce the shadow of a man remains. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAM9dn5kEdfy
O could I turn to that fair prime again, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA0KmvxhCobi
That prime of which this boaster is so vain, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAATxHiUJHQS
The brave, who this decrepid age defies, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAEbPEOfM6Dm
Should feel my force, without the promis'd prize." 912Please respect copyright.PENANAWyC6ZXHov4
He said; and, rising at the word, he threw 912Please respect copyright.PENANA3o19SKley2
Two pond'rous gauntlets down in open view; 912Please respect copyright.PENANASqXjxdLK3O
Gauntlets which Eryx wont in fight to wield, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAx4ND3b8JgZ
And sheathe his hands with in the listed field. 912Please respect copyright.PENANApvDBEtgc2b
With fear and wonder seiz'd, the crowd beholds 912Please respect copyright.PENANAk7L5breyzK
The gloves of death, with sev'n distinguish'd folds 912Please respect copyright.PENANAf3OyaSYOnM
Of tough bull hides; the space within is spread 912Please respect copyright.PENANAGnWCVtxv7X
With iron, or with loads of heavy lead: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAHMhHPKQ3ri
Dares himself was daunted at the sight, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAqgntnzhtwA
Renounc'd his challenge, and refus'd to fight. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAMFcZ1JqIMf
Astonish'd at their weight, the hero stands, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAzd6jPeV2Xj
And pois'd the pond'rous engines in his hands. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA5VScGGPGIf
"What had your wonder," said Entellus, "been, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAHrWjnJvOID
Had you the gauntlets of Alcides seen, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA7bI88Pqz0y
Or view'd the stern debate on this unhappy green! 912Please respect copyright.PENANAGBbjuH8tmg
These which I bear your brother Eryx bore, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAVQ7thvB29i
Still mark'd with batter'd brains and mingled gore. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAIAwDDInFJS
With these he long sustain'd th' Herculean arm; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAMJ81dSpkF8
And these I wielded while my blood was warm, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAZFraB0As0v
This languish'd frame while better spirits fed, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA9fZ7u6FK6o
Ere age unstrung my nerves, or time o'ersnow'd my head. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA4b7XNwucpx
But if the challenger these arms refuse, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAxVQWfPou5I
And cannot wield their weight, or dare not use; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAawe4pXA1w3
If great Aeneas and Acestes join 912Please respect copyright.PENANAjtZFessGwQ
In his request, these gauntlets I resign; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAFSe4rLF9jI
Let us with equal arms perform the fight, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAtEruj4sTAE
And let him leave to fear, since I resign my right." 912Please respect copyright.PENANASvZKOblPDL
This said, Entellus for the strife prepares; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAsXUjrZRQLR
Stripp'd of his quilted coat, his body bares; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAyVyzilnILM
Compos'd of mighty bones and brawn he stands, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAgsJ9r90752
A goodly tow'ring object on the sands. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5DTr3Jwwz
Then just Aeneas equal arms supplied, 912Please respect copyright.PENANApKVudtNVVj
Which round their shoulders to their wrists they tied. 912Please respect copyright.PENANATZjxAhnLwj
Both on the tiptoe stand, at full extent, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAHHPClBnOxI
Their arms aloft, their bodies inly bent; 912Please respect copyright.PENANA0wjD8aCN34
Their heads from aiming blows they bear afar; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAxGuK5P7kTy
With clashing gauntlets then provoke the war. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAWxhtvXT9WV
One on his youth and pliant limbs relies; 912Please respect copyright.PENANApLplK68rGU
One on his sinews and his giant size. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA9YpMPzyydr
The last is stiff with age, his motion slow; 912Please respect copyright.PENANATr4E0XYAKY
He heaves for breath, he staggers to and fro, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAZkxJWOa8Wp
And clouds of issuing smoke his nostrils loudly blow. 912Please respect copyright.PENANABUwrCzJhYf
Yet equal in success, they ward, they strike; 912Please respect copyright.PENANALiNLNIDxSZ
Their ways are diff'rent, but their art alike. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA7DbeLRlWf4
Before, behind, the blows are dealt; around 912Please respect copyright.PENANAEzkR2KKwUX
Their hollow sides the rattling thumps resound. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAinmtpWlYkl
A storm of strokes, well meant, with fury flies, 912Please respect copyright.PENANARo0XVV5ulj
And errs about their temples, ears, and eyes. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAOulcK5uzcZ
Nor always errs; for oft the gauntlet draws 912Please respect copyright.PENANAypdrYtdVKq
A sweeping stroke along the crackling jaws. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAoX1OM21tor
Heavy with age, Entellus stands his ground, 912Please respect copyright.PENANATG5VJDBsef
But with his warping body wards the wound. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAYmXiUeaMFq
His hand and watchful eye keep even pace; 912Please respect copyright.PENANASBauFjmyyW
While Dares traverses and shifts his place, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAfceiWcWP6e
And, like a captain who beleaguers round 912Please respect copyright.PENANALF89zariNE
Some strong-built castle on a rising ground, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAU0jeRxplV2
Views all th' approaches with observing eyes: 912Please respect copyright.PENANA4RVtaZdxIY
This and that other part in vain he tries, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAs7uL1P6qmK
And more on industry than force relies. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAMB7RzipzUY
With hands on high, Entellus threats the foe; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAs65Pgb2D3I
But Dares watch'd the motion from below, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA1EdbCHQ7pO
And slipp'd aside, and shunn'd the long descending blow. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAAvmYYnfjP3
Entellus wastes his forces on the wind, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAe0L8GRoVCI
And, thus deluded of the stroke design'd, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAbbCFuCeaMm
Headlong and heavy fell; his ample breast 912Please respect copyright.PENANAdLyv0qJlNH
And weighty limbs his ancient mother press'd. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAm5L89rEQNg
So falls a hollow pine, that long had stood 912Please respect copyright.PENANANcYDFvH7eN
On Ida's height, or Erymanthus' wood, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAfMfPau4hG0
Torn from the roots. The diff'ring nations rise, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAyYIzHgMeT9
And shouts and mingled murmurs rend the skies, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAloLUcXhVeY
Acestus runs with eager haste, to raise 912Please respect copyright.PENANAV5YLpGq8PO
The fall'n companion of his youthful days. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAc5iLkLXFWU
Dauntless he rose, and to the fight return'd; 912Please respect copyright.PENANADRxT6YDELG
With shame his glowing cheeks, his eyes with fury burn'd. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAgK8upjPHu9
Disdain and conscious virtue fir'd his breast, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA9KE3sHU6Kw
And with redoubled force his foe he press'd. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAvxPGJEov0F
He lays on load with either hand, amain, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAk5HPYaWkCZ
And headlong drives the Trojan o'er the plain; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAzexQgrttLU
Nor stops, nor stays; nor rest nor breath allows; 912Please respect copyright.PENANA6kYcj1sylB
But storms of strokes descend about his brows, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAeSsVKlpGZ6
A rattling tempest, and a hail of blows. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAzEhHagdUZq
But now the prince, who saw the wild increase 912Please respect copyright.PENANAkYFNeHEpda
Of wounds, commands the combatants to cease, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAn7hCyj3WlV
And bounds Entellus' wrath, and bids the peace. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAsDX4eoNp9O
First to the Trojan, spent with toil, he came, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAIIwil2oFeP
And sooth'd his sorrow for the suffer'd shame. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAPNQk15Qn3q
"What fury seiz'd my friend? The gods," said he, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAdTNncSlb3V
"To him propitious, and averse to thee, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAUKRebI2gR4
Have giv'n his arm superior force to thine. 912Please respect copyright.PENANARxuCuEzWI1
'T is madness to contend with strength divine." 912Please respect copyright.PENANAl23moJRlRB
The gauntlet fight thus ended, from the shore 912Please respect copyright.PENANAIYNSMEvC6B
His faithful friends unhappy Dares bore: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAMJA2GTQR61
His mouth and nostrils pour'd a purple flood, 912Please respect copyright.PENANASIOou0Uk41
And pounded teeth came rushing with his blood. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAJUtzGhZsVJ
Faintly he stagger'd thro' the hissing throng, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA935qpxayeP
And hung his head, and trail'd his legs along. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAJDE1qzvvBe
The sword and casque are carried by his train; 912Please respect copyright.PENANASIhq1jIVuv
But with his foe the palm and ox remain. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAGmWXb5P3dQ
The champion, then, before Aeneas came, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA0rkvNDkuFU
Proud of his prize, but prouder of his fame: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAIGBPUO1dBy
"O goddess-born, and you, Dardanian host, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAeVigACQQyH
Mark with attention, and forgive my boast; 912Please respect copyright.PENANATFx3qFrvEn
Learn what I was, by what remains; and know 912Please respect copyright.PENANAw5NVnvfztb
From what impending fate you sav'd my foe." 912Please respect copyright.PENANAU1cvoOHrv8
Sternly he spoke, and then confronts the bull; 912Please respect copyright.PENANACb12gJf6iw
And, on his ample forehead aiming full, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAawEIEfVJys
The deadly stroke, descending, pierc'd the skull. 912Please respect copyright.PENANArdRbF2uIHO
Down drops the beast, nor needs a second wound, 912Please respect copyright.PENANApXFQxyyM5m
But sprawls in pangs of death, and spurns the ground. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAmgma0QIF1H
Then, thus: "In Dares' stead I offer this. 912Please respect copyright.PENANArppXY4XANo
Eryx, accept a nobler sacrifice; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAgDsnHeJY5d
Take the last gift my wither'd arms can yield: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAKvN5RE5pLF
Thy gauntlets I resign, and here renounce the field." 912Please respect copyright.PENANA8blNUy9J07
This done, Aeneas orders, for the close, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAqZ3kAqvSNo
The strife of archers with contending bows. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAxG02PtNroY
The mast Sergesthus' shatter'd galley bore 912Please respect copyright.PENANAmqescl5FNn
With his own hands he raises on the shore. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAK9XVc7U5Bl
A flutt'ring dove upon the top they tie, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAh9yVBNlb9k
The living mark at which their arrows fly. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA73FD8GPJfb
The rival archers in a line advance, 912Please respect copyright.PENANASrG8Fgp7dz
Their turn of shooting to receive from chance. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAqLhpiScj9v
A helmet holds their names; the lots are drawn: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAKrUeVNZd0Z
On the first scroll was read Hippocoon. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAFONQs8228Q
The people shout. Upon the next was found 912Please respect copyright.PENANAzGiOHCdUHE
Young Mnestheus, late with naval honors crown'd. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAuDHzCPWawx
The third contain'd Eurytion's noble name, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAIvqHzbhti5
Thy brother, Pandarus, and next in fame, 912Please respect copyright.PENANALb1doADL6H
Whom Pallas urg'd the treaty to confound, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA34K6lYuWHt
And send among the Greeks a feather'd wound. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAwUVrzD7P4a
Acestes in the bottom last remain'd, 912Please respect copyright.PENANADz6WQTEF4s
Whom not his age from youthful sports restrain'd. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA8YNVyMPka3
Soon all with vigor bend their trusty bows, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAB1bnaiY5Gz
And from the quiver each his arrow chose. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAZ5atpYpIuz
Hippocoon's was the first: with forceful sway 912Please respect copyright.PENANA8ao8NyZCiR
It flew, and, whizzing, cut the liquid way. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA7BPPX60gZF
Fix'd in the mast the feather'd weapon stands: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAbhosMqd0lF
The fearful pigeon flutters in her bands, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAFuSv7v6Spc
And the tree trembled, and the shouting cries 912Please respect copyright.PENANA4BxYTTbpS8
Of the pleas'd people rend the vaulted skies. 912Please respect copyright.PENANApPl1Kb6tPb
Then Mnestheus to the head his arrow drove, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA04fqS7M2YQ
With lifted eyes, and took his aim above, 912Please respect copyright.PENANANtk4I3MOpZ
But made a glancing shot, and missed the dove; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAeKvNycbWSS
Yet miss'd so narrow, that he cut the cord 912Please respect copyright.PENANA8aItnDP71k
Which fasten'd by the foot the flitting bird. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAQgguKdO9n2
The captive thus releas'd, away she flies, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAwaAjQIwJ2y
And beats with clapping wings the yielding skies. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAeAw2JWLp22
His bow already bent, Eurytion stood; 912Please respect copyright.PENANA8JbrQIcr3L
And, having first invok'd his brother god, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAOaKzJHVOju
His winged shaft with eager haste he sped. 912Please respect copyright.PENANARPUEB3JCLz
The fatal message reach'd her as she fled: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAd2neoRv3r9
She leaves her life aloft; she strikes the ground, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAMMQ2UoK7yJ
And renders back the weapon in the wound. 912Please respect copyright.PENANArr3xvvw2kC
Acestes, grudging at his lot, remains, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAyvaLIh7zQS
Without a prize to gratify his pains. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAhJUFdF1mzB
Yet, shooting upward, sends his shaft, to show 912Please respect copyright.PENANAhwPhEQRoER
An archer's art, and boast his twanging bow. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAJ9kig2kTR0
The feather'd arrow gave a dire portent, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAs4jI2Lq9nx
And latter augurs judge from this event. 912Please respect copyright.PENANANVYZPi4UUK
Chaf'd by the speed, it fir'd; and, as it flew, 912Please respect copyright.PENANANDmwRmYbHU
A trail of following flames ascending drew: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAWTtNkAaPqr
Kindling they mount, and mark the shiny way; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAxiBdimULYn
Across the skies as falling meteors play, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA0jioyuQ0Uv
And vanish into wind, or in a blaze decay. 912Please respect copyright.PENANALWhJ3Lk6uo
The Trojans and Sicilians wildly stare, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAsJoZ15co74
And, trembling, turn their wonder into pray'r. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAw1YItJ636o
The Dardan prince put on a smiling face, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAQbcvYmVMFn
And strain'd Acestes with a close embrace; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAaqzZNHxZv8
Then, hon'ring him with gifts above the rest, 912Please respect copyright.PENANArxVGZWNLoP
Turn'd the bad omen, nor his fears confess'd. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAE4OK7lMt4Y
"The gods," said he, "this miracle have wrought, 912Please respect copyright.PENANATC908mhyEC
And order'd you the prize without the lot. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAZexiP2Y6vJ
Accept this goblet, rough with figur'd gold, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAyP0MecAtmK
Which Thracian Cisseus gave my sire of old: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAhAeewjH5n7
This pledge of ancient amity receive, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAD8blpSOgGV
Which to my second sire I justly give." 912Please respect copyright.PENANANgAFpISkJw
He said, and, with the trumpets' cheerful sound, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA0Zqo9IoLtC
Proclaim'd him victor, and with laurel-crown'd. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAkCRn85M3bx
Nor good Eurytion envied him the prize, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAbHtt9FbQSa
Tho' he transfix'd the pigeon in the skies. 912Please respect copyright.PENANASLzmSExI38
Who cut the line, with second gifts was grac'd; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAeoON1H26RZ
The third was his whose arrow pierc'd the mast. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAlKICX1G1hE
The chief, before the games were wholly done, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA6LFqb8F41J
Call'd Periphantes, tutor to his son, 912Please respect copyright.PENANACIL6PfZbDC
And whisper'd thus: "With speed Ascanius find; 912Please respect copyright.PENANA7xVIVYq8Bz
And, if his childish troop be ready join'd, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAS4AsW97PQT
On horseback let him grace his grandsire's day, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAbLP4V19rej
And lead his equals arm'd in just array." 912Please respect copyright.PENANAFdsv34cdmo
He said; and, calling out, the cirque he clears. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAPNWCsa8JX7
The crowd withdrawn, an open plain appears. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAeSfRxRE4M2
And now the noble youths, of form divine, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA3d9H1ZrnEg
Advance before their fathers, in a line; 912Please respect copyright.PENANASLA7VJNVno
The riders grace the steeds; the steeds with glory shine. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAIXAkD4XVDq
Thus marching on in military pride, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAtyeWU0chzh
Shouts of applause resound from side to side. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAoESqS8bO6I
Their casques adorn'd with laurel wreaths they wear, 912Please respect copyright.PENANATDNkZjyxgO
Each brandishing aloft a cornel spear. 912Please respect copyright.PENANACEfeMKbSqn
Some at their backs their gilded quivers bore; 912Please respect copyright.PENANA6xWT7mkYAr
Their chains of burnish'd gold hung down before. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA7UtYipoqTd
Three graceful troops they form'd upon the green; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAWTslYLDMrE
Three graceful leaders at their head were seen; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAWqetEPgCnt
Twelve follow'd ev'ry chief, and left a space between. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAcDkSdACwzO
The first young Priam led; a lovely boy, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAEgCgaPJ72M
Whose grandsire was th' unhappy king of Troy; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAoyxF7bV3Tf
His race in after times was known to fame, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAm8o2hBohTH
New honors adding to the Latian name; 912Please respect copyright.PENANA24ZnosSamU
And well the royal boy his Thracian steed became. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAbGw3R1AlGh
White were the fetlocks of his feet before, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAQo2cK4aUcL
And on his front a snowy star he bore. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAfk1rBdExld
Then beauteous Atys, with Iulus bred, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAbkIrbONZVr
Of equal age, the second squadron led. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAsUMP4ResSf
The last in order, but the first in place, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAXf3FLhqtoC
First in the lovely features of his face, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAnJgEOi6Niv
Rode fair Ascanius on a fiery steed, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA1bY9J1LPbL
Queen Dido's gift, and of the Tyrian breed. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAQl4Kh8GJqE
Sure coursers for the rest the king ordains, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAvjmUJ8cVDe
With golden bits adorn'd, and purple reins. 912Please respect copyright.PENANATnuNxjyGa6
The pleas'd spectators peals of shouts renew, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAvgCgFhqciA
And all the parents in the children view; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAVS8H5RG5NH
Their make, their motions, and their sprightly grace, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAzCR6eJUX8w
And hopes and fears alternate in their face. 912Please respect copyright.PENANALEoQtA5z2y
Th' unfledg'd commanders and their martial train 912Please respect copyright.PENANA9v4pm5LATF
First make the circuit of the sandy plain 912Please respect copyright.PENANA3vuKS6gaFI
Around their sires, and, at th' appointed sign, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAiyzUDUhkPx
Drawn up in beauteous order, form a line. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAuHqurHKU6o
The second signal sounds, the troop divides 912Please respect copyright.PENANAB3kbzWxiEW
In three distinguish'd parts, with three distinguish'd guides 912Please respect copyright.PENANAOXxKNYTGbO
Again they close, and once again disjoin; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAPcuD7zE8QC
In troop to troop oppos'd, and line to line. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAiDtYg6xBaq
They meet; they wheel; they throw their darts afar 912Please respect copyright.PENANAACkEmrBon3
With harmless rage and well-dissembled war. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAg9DGeUmIqa
Then in a round the mingled bodies run: 912Please respect copyright.PENANArNvNUQvKwh
Flying they follow, and pursuing shun; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAPIdLR6mObA
Broken, they break; and, rallying, they renew 912Please respect copyright.PENANAdh4dfMWed2
In other forms the military shew. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA6Wnn7zDblC
At last, in order, undiscern'd they join, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA9THd1IGPni
And march together in a friendly line. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAM3Y2bOj2B3
And, as the Cretan labyrinth of old, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAdkdfrbTvHG
With wand'ring ways and many a winding fold, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAwMI1XAn4B1
Involv'd the weary feet, without redress, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA8lKNiCUJxF
In a round error, which denied recess; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAIdr6PtHIsg
So fought the Trojan boys in warlike play, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA5gJxoJ4j5x
Turn'd and return'd, and still a diff'rent way. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAzRX0ZyzVxV
Thus dolphins in the deep each other chase 912Please respect copyright.PENANANW8VNzaIMd
In circles, when they swim around the wat'ry race. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA39c7ZP29ni
This game, these carousels, Ascanius taught; 912Please respect copyright.PENANATxWWaPqMSh
And, building Alba, to the Latins brought; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAV5Lyp2PTUl
Shew'd what he learn'd: the Latin sires impart 912Please respect copyright.PENANAKooBpxTPlx
To their succeeding sons the graceful art; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAJH9zUL3uHI
From these imperial Rome receiv'd the game, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA6IV70WANBi
Which Troy, the youths the Trojan troop, they name. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAbLCpDaWlp9
Thus far the sacred sports they celebrate: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAEihFtAu7yh
But Fortune soon resum'd her ancient hate; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAnh6Mx9R09u
For, while they pay the dead his annual dues, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA6z51MQRq1J
Those envied rites Saturnian Juno views; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAVBIymFw4ie
And sends the goddess of the various bow, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAfie88j4xIK
To try new methods of revenge below; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAa4EoEtbaHX
Supplies the winds to wing her airy way, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAniPQlqfYsI
Where in the port secure the navy lay. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAWSliM3YJod
Swiftly fair Iris down her arch descends, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAchfwegbT4n
And, undiscern'd, her fatal voyage ends. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAlZKDFwo1ju
She saw the gath'ring crowd; and, gliding thence, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAiS9dILtO1A
The desart shore, and fleet without defense. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAIqk1UIZ4As
The Trojan matrons, on the sands alone, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5RxecvDLv
With sighs and tears Anchises' death bemoan; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAoVCKnTRjP1
Then, turning to the sea their weeping eyes, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAKkzvbNjbdc
Their pity to themselves renews their cries. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAybHTtjJFxw
"Alas!" said one, "what oceans yet remain 912Please respect copyright.PENANApEoiKtO0Iv
For us to sail! what labors to sustain!" 912Please respect copyright.PENANAUwx4PJW927
All take the word, and, with a gen'ral groan, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAfo4PRYiMKE
Implore the gods for peace, and places of their own. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA0FnHW4NeZs
The goddess, great in mischief, views their pains, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAVXDENHJinM
And in a woman's form her heav'nly limbs restrains. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAdKsT6VD8CX
In face and shape old Beroe she became, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAENUgyrs0Zu
Doryclus' wife, a venerable dame, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAPGOFmoOYgr
Once blest with riches, and a mother's name. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAVtMShGIKDY
Thus chang'd, amidst the crying crowd she ran, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAIUn17bIwZD
Mix'd with the matrons, and these words began: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAKdk6GGexIn
"O wretched we, whom not the Grecian pow'r, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAr0oaQrVcPy
Nor flames, destroy'd, in Troy's unhappy hour! 912Please respect copyright.PENANAP9Y1thuEUn
O wretched we, reserv'd by cruel fate, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAUgv3j8q2GR
Beyond the ruins of the sinking state! 912Please respect copyright.PENANAf90ukGQgP0
Now sev'n revolving years are wholly run, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAe0yUWwHMwB
Since this improsp'rous voyage we begun; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAl4XWWXgnTE
Since, toss'd from shores to shores, from lands to lands, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAJnXbsy3VhB
Inhospitable rocks and barren sands, 912Please respect copyright.PENANApqXWgOQUm4
Wand'ring in exile thro' the stormy sea, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAJJYFnON1HA
We search in vain for flying Italy. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA3xmiAn94IS
Now cast by fortune on this kindred land, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAo6ZH4ZeY21
What should our rest and rising walls withstand, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAikCthclu7e
Or hinder here to fix our banish'd band? 912Please respect copyright.PENANAoIoiU1TGNa
O country lost, and gods redeem'd in vain, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAwvMDM6Yxyr
If still in endless exile we remain! 912Please respect copyright.PENANAJwVYF3yuvx
Shall we no more the Trojan walls renew, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAvdodt9KzTv
Or streams of some dissembled Simois view! 912Please respect copyright.PENANAzEd1Bniddq
Haste, join with me, th' unhappy fleet consume! 912Please respect copyright.PENANAEIPGl69c5r
Cassandra bids; and I declare her doom. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAAkTWRjsGK3
In sleep I saw her; she supplied my hands 912Please respect copyright.PENANAabPJOknL7g
(For this I more than dreamt) with flaming brands: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAVyfZDoK9zg
'With these,' said she, 'these wand'ring ships destroy: 912Please respect copyright.PENANApqhUtjMuKF
These are your fatal seats, and this your Troy.' 912Please respect copyright.PENANALXWj4vbage
Time calls you now; the precious hour employ: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAzG1qvpxsgb
Slack not the good presage, while Heav'n inspires 912Please respect copyright.PENANAOlgCeYx8x5
Our minds to dare, and gives the ready fires. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAtTMTeSgbbK
See! Neptune's altars minister their brands: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAp5XgwjFm8y
The god is pleas'd; the god supplies our hands." 912Please respect copyright.PENANAPFAIRLjcVo
Then from the pile a flaming fire she drew, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAJgXZVkzyxE
And, toss'd in air, amidst the galleys threw. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAfLZhTMPmkA
Wrapp'd in amaze, the matrons wildly stare: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAdCG1mQadg7
Then Pyrgo, reverenc'd for her hoary hair, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAYCJdWc05hE
Pyrgo, the nurse of Priam's num'rous race: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAsjtqzA02ri
"No Beroe this, tho' she belies her face! 912Please respect copyright.PENANAfnXcIVmh7B
What terrors from her frowning front arise! 912Please respect copyright.PENANATYhAiVHzhz
Behold a goddess in her ardent eyes! 912Please respect copyright.PENANA8RO2xoZccJ
What rays around her heav'nly face are seen! 912Please respect copyright.PENANALRZ5LDrdhG
Mark her majestic voice, and more than mortal mien! 912Please respect copyright.PENANAsFu2zBZgIC
Beroe but now I left, whom, pin'd with pain, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAlhZ2wmnjoO
Her age and anguish from these rites detain," 912Please respect copyright.PENANAyME55lhYde
She said. The matrons, seiz'd with new amaze, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAcxmhyRtYXN
Roll their malignant eyes, and on the navy gaze. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAO3Qwsnhrbd
They fear, and hope, and neither part obey: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAaCefRaBfsL
They hope the fated land, but fear the fatal way. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAANQbtmaRNR
The goddess, having done her task below, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAqV1Si2F8kQ
Mounts up on equal wings, and bends her painted bow. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAalsgCD05Fp
Struck with the sight, and seiz'd with rage divine, 912Please respect copyright.PENANANZEHAEpuFZ
The matrons prosecute their mad design: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAIhSfP1hg0M
They shriek aloud; they snatch, with impious hands, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAICOot3jLan
The food of altars; fires and flaming brands. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAbICHkhDhIc
Green boughs and saplings, mingled in their haste, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA7vB7amctXQ
And smoking torches, on the ships they cast. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAhSujPuwVpA
The flame, unstopp'd at first, more fury gains, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAejfrfhPpJ7
And Vulcan rides at large with loosen'd reins: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAKpfDfQgst9
Triumphant to the painted sterns he soars, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAYIulP8OwzO
And seizes, in this way, the banks and crackling oars. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAjjhCDbkSTm
Eumelus was the first the news to bear, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAzKel7pksyi
While yet they crowd the rural theater. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAITYb6RHRH9
Then, what they hear, is witness'd by their eyes: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAHXWFMaU0Er
A storm of sparkles and of flames arise. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAogR9pgUE80
Ascanius took th' alarm, while yet he led 912Please respect copyright.PENANATd6amvYhGp
His early warriors on his prancing steed, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAkdawacQq4c
And, spurring on, his equals soon o'erpass'd; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAMCHwUOcsX4
Nor could his frighted friends reclaim his haste. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAZNnKoyL9JZ
Soon as the royal youth appear'd in view, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAXPQzuuCpP9
He sent his voice before him as he flew: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAX53sIeigMH
"What madness moves you, matrons, to destroy 912Please respect copyright.PENANA1pVadVoOsr
The last remainders of unhappy Troy! 912Please respect copyright.PENANA1ERUyJ57Bi
Not hostile fleets, but your own hopes, you burn, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAgWk90u5sK9
And on your friends your fatal fury turn. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAHPuUdt2yqo
Behold your own Ascanius!" While he said, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAz0dOeICZHn
He drew his glitt'ring helmet from his head, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAI3VgqLxCrw
In which the youths to sportful arms he led. 912Please respect copyright.PENANANYw3uddSpW
By this, Aeneas and his train appear; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAiq2iDLbzin
And now the women, seiz'd with shame and fear, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAgvpqU4BCl8
Dispers'd, to woods and caverns take their flight, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAZx2yZAOElj
Abhor their actions, and avoid the light; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAvIc4nJYAqS
Their friends acknowledge, and their error find, 912Please respect copyright.PENANANcvTVu7mVe
And shake the goddess from their alter'd mind. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAn06duuJgcR
Not so the raging fires their fury cease, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAr73ftAdEAJ
But, lurking in the seams, with seeming peace, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAfXh5bsXRzZ
Work on their way amid the smold'ring tow, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAdBoSNHa0Fx
Sure in destruction, but in motion slow. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAGZHlT4u9fl
The silent plague thro' the green timber eats, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAhfxeVg8bCB
And vomits out a tardy flame by fits. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA9ICspQHCVj
Down to the keels, and upward to the sails, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA9JYgcFu4EL
The fire descends, or mounts, but still prevails; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAfsun9iMgdc
Nor buckets pour'd, nor strength of human hand, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAUaV067CkU5
Can the victorious element withstand. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAsSmZWlmQxg
The pious hero rends his robe, and throws 912Please respect copyright.PENANAAaSpoz4s7r
To heav'n his hands, and with his hands his vows. 912Please respect copyright.PENANADEeOfgnIS2
"O Jove," he cried, "if pray'rs can yet have place; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAbGdDZunkJl
If thou abhorr'st not all the Dardan race; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAB1nmZEZk97
If any spark of pity still remain; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAhUojY0dLOE
If gods are gods, and not invok'd in vain; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAmkE709XrMH
Yet spare the relics of the Trojan train! 912Please respect copyright.PENANAmzAYXgQiQp
Yet from the flames our burning vessels free, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAgUzGSwU0Dq
Or let thy fury fall alone on me! 912Please respect copyright.PENANA8MB58QNN1j
At this devoted head thy thunder throw, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAPVX2b2C3Fp
And send the willing sacrifice below!" 912Please respect copyright.PENANAYIePbTbPZk
Scarce had he said, when southern storms arise: 912Please respect copyright.PENANA5dsb4lxJyH
From pole to pole the forky lightning flies; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAq2365HIUZX
Loud rattling shakes the mountains and the plain; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAPWw6iN7BnI
Heav'n bellies downward, and descends in rain. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAtGXjboXdJ3
Whole sheets of water from the clouds are sent, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAiOTG8jJwhc
Which, hissing thro' the planks, the flames prevent, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAToe6RZOSWG
And stop the fiery pest. Four ships alone 912Please respect copyright.PENANAK3gTupQ6nq
Burn to the waist, and for the fleet atone. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAA23FMp3Q18
But doubtful thoughts the hero's heart divide; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAXBG29zzi58
If he should still in Sicily reside, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAfouQjMOxJt
Forgetful of his fates, or tempt the main, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAVRDr5ASqTE
In hope the promis'd Italy to gain. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA3s3y6RoZnm
Then Nautes, old and wise, to whom alone 912Please respect copyright.PENANAVKDPTI7g5C
The will of Heav'n by Pallas was foreshown; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAQQc6arPGFh
Vers'd in portents, experienc'd, and inspir'd 912Please respect copyright.PENANATHahImyK5U
To tell events, and what the fates requir'd; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAgDf1yLFxIb
Thus while he stood, to neither part inclin'd, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAlqq3L4Tj69
With cheerful words reliev'd his lab'ring mind: 912Please respect copyright.PENANABc0bndWlMr
"O goddess-born, resign'd in ev'ry state, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAmgapPc5K7W
With patience bear, with prudence push your fate. 912Please respect copyright.PENANADiU8iS3dME
By suff'ring well, our Fortune we subdue; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAIDqjbsJgqZ
Fly when she frowns, and, when she calls, pursue. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAgL9slBkM7g
Your friend Acestes is of Trojan kind; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAQta96y5bFU
To him disclose the secrets of your mind: 912Please respect copyright.PENANA4f9JAhrNyn
Trust in his hands your old and useless train; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAIvznia01IY
Too num'rous for the ships which yet remain: 912Please respect copyright.PENANArEq1bsEBCs
The feeble, old, indulgent of their ease, 912Please respect copyright.PENANArov0m5cFN4
The dames who dread the dangers of the seas, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA9A1y4LRP6A
With all the dastard crew, who dare not stand 912Please respect copyright.PENANAkAEV8bVOTU
The shock of battle with your foes by land. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA6pg9NSKjdL
Here you may build a common town for all, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAAHgvSfRmDu
And, from Acestes' name, Acesta call." 912Please respect copyright.PENANAQPbMp2Fvls
The reasons, with his friend's experience join'd, 912Please respect copyright.PENANALvGUumDpeC
Encourag'd much, but more disturb'd his mind. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAAgBkFxFTpp
'T was dead of night; when to his slumb'ring eyes 912Please respect copyright.PENANAde3sOKocYZ
His father's shade descended from the skies, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAPw0dh51K8s
And thus he spoke: "O more than vital breath, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAP9c9PfO8sQ
Lov'd while I liv'd, and dear ev'n after death; 912Please respect copyright.PENANA35teFYbXeq
O son, in various toils and troubles toss'd, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAXxborym722
The King of Heav'n employs my careful ghost 912Please respect copyright.PENANA1wS2sxrDVb
On his commands: the god, who sav'd from fire 912Please respect copyright.PENANAthD3GXxV9v
Your flaming fleet, and heard your just desire. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAePCz5V2sIR
The wholesome counsel of your friend receive, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAJzSo7fBC5H
And here the coward train and woman leave: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAHwre4RaF6u
The chosen youth, and those who nobly dare, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAkd7hhzsLeS
Transport, to tempt the dangers of the war. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA8Fv3LrdNf9
The stern Italians will their courage try; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAbaOKnBXEat
Rough are their manners, and their minds are high. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAILptz4XbXv
But first to Pluto's palace you shall go, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAcLdgAyz2PT
And seek my shade among the blest below: 912Please respect copyright.PENANATm9f4aWLlc
For not with impious ghosts my soul remains, 912Please respect copyright.PENANARHsBqbVOdv
Nor suffers with the damn'd perpetual pains, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAkaaejhpP4b
But breathes the living air of soft Elysian plains. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAMYYlhMnIWV
The chaste Sibylla shall your steps convey, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAUSF4P2Fx8z
And blood of offer'd victims free the way. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA7WYeKo9Vev
There shall you know what realms the gods assign, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAAlkE6vOFCA
And learn the fates and fortunes of your line. 912Please respect copyright.PENANANDv9Z3D3IW
But now, farewell! I vanish with the night, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAJS9rPcBrqr
And feel the blast of heav'n's approaching light." 912Please respect copyright.PENANAYPhDWvygMf
He said, and mix'd with shades, and took his airy flight. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAkQnFz2qa9k
"Whither so fast?" the filial duty cried; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAOsMrYTU2ny
"And why, ah why, the wish'd embrace denied?" 912Please respect copyright.PENANABaasgZImjO
He said, and rose; as holy zeal inspires, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAeVjLwkcpdJ
He rakes hot embers, and renews the fires; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAiutfihBs9U
His country gods and Vesta then adores 912Please respect copyright.PENANAcL8Jz2mLis
With cakes and incense, and their aid implores. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAyu2ZLfyxnH
Next, for his friends and royal host he sent, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAU6GZBK4fjA
Reveal'd his vision, and the gods' intent, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAnFhGtsFwFY
With his own purpose. All, without delay, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAkKskfxdGp4
The will of Jove, and his desires obey. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAdNimJ2MECn
They list with women each degenerate name, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAJXjKeSkcLY
Who dares not hazard life for future fame. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAVAZ5sLA4Wt
These they cashier: the brave remaining few, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAyWd9Uh8syf
Oars, banks, and cables, half consum'd, renew. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAgk8Tw95Ilm
The prince designs a city with the plow; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAJvpaw4jawZ
The lots their sev'ral tenements allow. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAckD6aZNt4S
This part is nam'd from Ilium, that from Troy, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAhIOTAaIq0n
And the new king ascends the throne with joy; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAXfOGs2fpza
A chosen senate from the people draws; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAP5i7Rs6XcY
Appoints the judges, and ordains the laws. 912Please respect copyright.PENANArRJYRCxJc9
Then, on the top of Eryx, they begin 912Please respect copyright.PENANAuxEmzSAk9H
A rising temple to the Paphian queen. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAxbUTbHAgjU
Anchises, last, is honor'd as a god; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAc4mrGGivF2
A priest is added, annual gifts bestow'd, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAlrvAxzRdIN
And groves are planted round his blest abode. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAr69hdjLAT1
Nine days they pass in feasts, their temples crown'd; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAaNOsExAtH2
And fumes of incense in the fanes abound. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA8Umwr2RL8s
Then from the south arose a gentle breeze 912Please respect copyright.PENANASPveVNotGL
That curl'd the smoothness of the glassy seas; 912Please respect copyright.PENANA4anqrcHtY9
The rising winds a ruffling gale afford, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAKBYKS7XOqv
And call the merry mariners aboard. 912Please respect copyright.PENANADnWiFgQi3S
Now loud laments along the shores resound, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAcCk4vNmhE2
Of parting friends in close embraces bound. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAbhSJIY1SIO
The trembling women, the degenerate train, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAC5sJ0VbFH2
Who shunn'd the frightful dangers of the main, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA89jmS5TYdH
Ev'n those desire to sail, and take their share 912Please respect copyright.PENANAaQfzAv5mXg
Of the rough passage and the promis'd war: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAU2j4ZCybK8
Whom good Aeneas cheers, and recommends 912Please respect copyright.PENANAbXwuf7FZqs
To their new master's care his fearful friends. 912Please respect copyright.PENANADGvn2XX2cC
On Eryx's altars three fat calves he lays; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAvmMCKd7Lvo
A lamb new-fallen to the stormy seas; 912Please respect copyright.PENANA3YWws2zMU1
Then slips his haulsers, and his anchors weighs. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAjVDoJZ7cbB
High on the deck the godlike hero stands, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAR9d0lvjuTD
With olive crown'd, a charger in his hands; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAKbl097CkVk
Then cast the reeking entrails in the brine, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAUjzGVC2e1f
And pour'd the sacrifice of purple wine. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAgmDQA3YgUJ
Fresh gales arise; with equal strokes they vie, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAwWTSxQ0dam
And brush the buxom seas, and o'er the billows fly. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAQPqX9RKvx0
Meantime the mother goddess, full of fears, 912Please respect copyright.PENANASCRL3BKNAi
To Neptune thus address'd, with tender tears: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAf9JLxQJMEz
"The pride of Jove's imperious queen, the rage, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAZDvsN7Wxrn
The malice which no suff'rings can assuage, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAZhiXBdAZtM
Compel me to these pray'rs; since neither fate, 912Please respect copyright.PENANANkAF1SPYp6
Nor time, nor pity, can remove her hate: 912Please respect copyright.PENANA5qSvpOHaMz
Ev'n Jove is thwarted by his haughty wife; 912Please respect copyright.PENANA66dGi4ZDcE
Still vanquish'd, yet she still renews the strife. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA8J6MVdRFwd
As if 't were little to consume the town 912Please respect copyright.PENANAPqzLi8Xwma
Which aw'd the world, and wore th' imperial crown, 912Please respect copyright.PENANARIgvgSWW4k
She prosecutes the ghost of Troy with pains, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAaU3emL3wmy
And gnaws, ev'n to the bones, the last remains. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAy2JXbBzSnb
Let her the causes of her hatred tell; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAUk5nAhcz59
But you can witness its effects too well. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAIjxD0VwiVk
You saw the storm she rais'd on Libyan floods, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAXH4DTwUkVe
That mix'd the mounting billows with the clouds; 912Please respect copyright.PENANACMS0sVIq5b
When, bribing Aeolus, she shook the main, 912Please respect copyright.PENANApyGsWJDX8X
And mov'd rebellion in your wat'ry reign. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAVfxQIRgczo
With fury she possess'd the Dardan dames, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAFtctTqYOIX
To burn their fleet with execrable flames, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA7wrAb3YRCg
And forc'd Aeneas, when his ships were lost, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAP9rpXRdSBI
To leave his foll'wers on a foreign coast. 912Please respect copyright.PENANABtirc6xVLe
For what remains, your godhead I implore, 912Please respect copyright.PENANACQnJ2jfWiD
And trust my son to your protecting pow'r. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAgtosaJt2XI
If neither Jove's nor Fate's decree withstand, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAtnn7e2sRga
Secure his passage to the Latian land." 912Please respect copyright.PENANAQLKNEovMMz
Then thus the mighty Ruler of the Main: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAjOOXBMPdJv
"What may not Venus hope from Neptune's reign? 912Please respect copyright.PENANAZFGOqC6NNE
My kingdom claims your birth; my late defense 912Please respect copyright.PENANA8HMC6WVZOZ
Of your indanger'd fleet may claim your confidence. 912Please respect copyright.PENANASkJcduQU47
Nor less by land than sea my deeds declare 912Please respect copyright.PENANA0nRb5X3TEm
How much your lov'd Aeneas is my care. 912Please respect copyright.PENANASSYFwRhTQJ
Thee, Xanthus, and thee, Simois, I attest. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAvegP28CsyJ
Your Trojan troops when proud Achilles press'd, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA3D50vgN7bF
And drove before him headlong on the plain, 912Please respect copyright.PENANANaOxLHHMKX
And dash'd against the walls the trembling train; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAL9OBmOCRoF
When floods were fill'd with bodies of the slain; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAoCQU9BUYwX
When crimson Xanthus, doubtful of his way, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAL6B8yWir8T
Stood up on ridges to behold the sea; 912Please respect copyright.PENANA0uUW3TzvP2
(New heaps came tumbling in, and chok'd his way;) 912Please respect copyright.PENANAfATZm0EzGQ
When your Aeneas fought, but fought with odds 912Please respect copyright.PENANAklyc6WgBTv
Of force unequal, and unequal gods; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAOsEHoOcCom
I spread a cloud before the victor's sight, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAXEfi05svBL
Sustain'd the vanquish'd, and secur'd his flight; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAegCs0mnYFj
Ev'n then secur'd him, when I sought with joy 912Please respect copyright.PENANAKUFV3d54VI
The vow'd destruction of ungrateful Troy. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAgd75wy1ueg
My will's the same: fair goddess, fear no more, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAiOL9pTcF0G
Your fleet shall safely gain the Latian shore; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAKvfb54gczA
Their lives are giv'n; one destin'd head alone 912Please respect copyright.PENANAeo5BNDmE7Z
Shall perish, and for multitudes atone." 912Please respect copyright.PENANAIMARzH0pGT
Thus having arm'd with hopes her anxious mind, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA2FuSxZvRfP
His finny team Saturnian Neptune join'd, 912Please respect copyright.PENANALN2pZaIx1d
Then adds the foamy bridle to their jaws, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAN3gFXPP8vK
And to the loosen'd reins permits the laws. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAO4e5ejjDVI
High on the waves his azure car he guides; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAvE2fiJE8a9
Its axles thunder, and the sea subsides, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAuTEqJuf73I
And the smooth ocean rolls her silent tides. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAZjFgoemnaP
The tempests fly before their father's face, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAgMAuyabHRM
Trains of inferior gods his triumph grace, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAvQfmVBzt3y
And monster whales before their master play, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAcpRg8szYar
And choirs of Tritons crowd the wat'ry way. 912Please respect copyright.PENANANc7RWMWeRK
The marshal'd pow'rs in equal troops divide 912Please respect copyright.PENANAE1vv2jvhzs
To right and left; the gods his better side 912Please respect copyright.PENANAQktopmj3M6
Inclose, and on the worse the Nymphs and Nereids ride. 912Please respect copyright.PENANACrTPYbfS97
Now smiling hope, with sweet vicissitude, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAkfi8iYssY2
Within the hero's mind his joys renew'd. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAE5TMediMlS
He calls to raise the masts, the sheets display; 912Please respect copyright.PENANA6u6v1LnvDd
The cheerful crew with diligence obey; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAIj5KDzaiPL
They scud before the wind, and sail in open sea. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAhG9GGgtqER
Ahead of all the master pilot steers; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAB4x6IcJQKq
And, as he leads, the following navy veers. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAm9A0GIR2JB
The steeds of Night had travel'd half the sky, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAG9XfunC0ue
The drowsy rowers on their benches lie, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA96m4ZXEplD
When the soft God of Sleep, with easy flight, 912Please respect copyright.PENANABYTSH0a1lM
Descends, and draws behind a trail of light. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA4ZF9O0bPcM
Thou, Palinurus, art his destin'd prey; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAvsX0gJ0nOB
To thee alone he takes his fatal way. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAuqq32lh7z1
Dire dreams to thee, and iron sleep, he bears; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAt2PB7pZRXp
And, lighting on thy prow, the form of Phorbas wears. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAlqkXivccBs
Then thus the traitor god began his tale: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAQHeEACNsnO
"The winds, my friend, inspire a pleasing gale; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAov6sk4rVMz
The ships, without thy care, securely sail. 912Please respect copyright.PENANA1Mh5Sd9URH
Now steal an hour of sweet repose; and I 912Please respect copyright.PENANAbccSYwyGHw
Will take the rudder and thy room supply." 912Please respect copyright.PENANA5pVt32yzgh
To whom the yawning pilot, half asleep: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAPkTCXjd3iV
"Me dost thou bid to trust the treach'rous deep, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAijtxtWwHeN
The harlot smiles of her dissembling face, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAImqNFm4XYb
And to her faith commit the Trojan race? 912Please respect copyright.PENANAbTq86TwTE6
Shall I believe the Siren South again, 912Please respect copyright.PENANASjXO30qiLg
And, oft betray'd, not know the monster main?" 912Please respect copyright.PENANAN94uiL3Wgr
He said: his fasten'd hands the rudder keep, 912Please respect copyright.PENANADNsl2Yvjgs
And, fix'd on heav'n, his eyes repel invading sleep. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAzYrKCMBbQl
The god was wroth, and at his temples threw 912Please respect copyright.PENANAQQpIvkQDrZ
A branch in Lethe dipp'd, and drunk with Stygian dew: 912Please respect copyright.PENANAFjyD0Gk3dp
The pilot, vanquish'd by the pow'r divine, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAPRPIHAE48N
Soon clos'd his swimming eyes, and lay supine. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAirmIm18qZV
Scarce were his limbs extended at their length, 912Please respect copyright.PENANASRDiIX9eBx
The god, insulting with superior strength, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAxcLONuyeyr
Fell heavy on him, plung'd him in the sea, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAAHWnVYrQcf
And, with the stern, the rudder tore away. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAYhsI5r7Ja9
Headlong he fell, and, struggling in the main, 912Please respect copyright.PENANA9rNGG3lLG4
Cried out for helping hands, but cried in vain. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAvVi7t8SST3
The victor daemon mounts obscure in air, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAAeXDjpXFPI
While the ship sails without the pilot's care. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAn1ONED14xn
On Neptune's faith the floating fleet relies; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAbQaaLetFAD
But what the man forsook, the god supplies, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAuUfC8Mo9VW
And o'er the dang'rous deep secure the navy flies; 912Please respect copyright.PENANAiyaXpn6KWe
Glides by the Sirens' cliffs, a shelfy coast, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAXb9DlkHqFt
Long infamous for ships and sailors lost, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAidFnJW8XQ5
And white with bones. Th' impetuous ocean roars, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAh67JlKSc5j
And rocks rebellow from the sounding shores. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAtj2aFw1RUl
The watchful hero felt the knocks, and found 912Please respect copyright.PENANAKdIpSkfo4R
The tossing vessel sail'd on shoaly ground. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAnvhPf0j6XM
Sure of his pilot's loss, he takes himself 912Please respect copyright.PENANA6TbSJKXsUs
The helm, and steers aloof, and shuns the shelf. 912Please respect copyright.PENANAnPqF00Csh5
Inly he griev'd, and, groaning from the breast, 912Please respect copyright.PENANApx80RVFEOZ
Deplor'd his death; and thus his pain express'd: 912Please respect copyright.PENANApX2K03UdRW
"For faith repos'd on seas, and on the flatt'ring sky, 912Please respect copyright.PENANAxbvIDINoxg
Thy naked corpse is doom'd on shores unknown to lie." 912Please respect copyright.PENANAchwJkwpZpq
