All were attentive to the godlike man, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAGd70xU2QVB
When from his lofty couch he thus began: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAqPSBrcMYRM
"Great queen, what you command me to relate 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAd5hVb540D6
Renews the sad remembrance of our fate: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA2TZteYg8s5
An empire from its old foundations rent, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAUpQwPNfBgO
And ev'ry woe the Trojans underwent; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAIBpb2AuACJ
A peopled city made a desart place; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANANhrWZUnU9I
All that I saw, and part of which I was: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAmFreYmrJxl
Not ev'n the hardest of our foes could hear, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAWjbsbhTrgF
Nor stern Ulysses tell without a tear. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANArQl1loWyzU
And now the latter watch of wasting night, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAK9TaBhofQf
And setting stars, to kindly rest invite; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANASkollecIJR
But, since you take such int'rest in our woe, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAp72OAZ84DJ
And Troy's disastrous end desire to know, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAiy4e67aCyf
I will restrain my tears, and briefly tell 1104Please respect copyright.PENANApnAJ09SkYy
What in our last and fatal night befell. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAA8UiaeqGBQ
"By destiny compell'd, and in despair, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANARNYk5KV6Yv
The Greeks grew weary of the tedious war, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAWtQqn9eXKd
And by Minerva's aid a fabric rear'd, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANASFw5HlKq8d
Which like a steed of monstrous height appear'd: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAONnxssRsNP
The sides were plank'd with pine; they feign'd it made 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAcavlRxPWwT
For their return, and this the vow they paid. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAiNPqPQIPPb
Thus they pretend, but in the hollow side 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA5nhzRZ51na
Selected numbers of their soldiers hide: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAoDwmEezAVa
With inward arms the dire machine they load, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAwkXwp6gDwL
And iron bowels stuff the dark abode. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAVLwsf0QV5E
In sight of Troy lies Tenedos, an isle 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAT2pGvkcSqf
(While Fortune did on Priam's empire smile) 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAdnZyNtqs6X
Renown'd for wealth; but, since, a faithless bay, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAOKpxak4gSP
Where ships expos'd to wind and weather lay. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAcvqvWDs0UK
There was their fleet conceal'd. We thought, for Greece 1104Please respect copyright.PENANADDaRmu54j0
Their sails were hoisted, and our fears release. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAPa1FjuCdUP
The Trojans, coop'd within their walls so long, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAO1JfkWyKou
Unbar their gates, and issue in a throng, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA70jdnMA954
Like swarming bees, and with delight survey 1104Please respect copyright.PENANALqfvFffkOK
The camp deserted, where the Grecians lay: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAsEbi9iGCu5
The quarters of the sev'ral chiefs they show'd; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAgiYt1T8Anw
Here Phoenix, here Achilles, made abode; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAyvLiihxKiY
Here join'd the battles; there the navy rode. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAmgHC6zbQHT
Part on the pile their wond'ring eyes employ: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAwftiSZTAvK
The pile by Pallas rais'd to ruin Troy. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAa2GLLrkCs8
Thymoetes first ('t is doubtful whether hir'd, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANABgTIRjp5Kk
Or so the Trojan destiny requir'd) 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAm20FBt0ccD
Mov'd that the ramparts might be broken down, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAMBYH1aJPY9
To lodge the monster fabric in the town. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANARuBqIhIRja
But Capys, and the rest of sounder mind, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAKHH70rhWT9
The fatal present to the flames designed, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAw0cnMcV4lL
Or to the wat'ry deep; at least to bore 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAtqtbT7BK3v
The hollow sides, and hidden frauds explore. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAL74GHfOweB
The giddy vulgar, as their fancies guide, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA523fqeGawn
With noise say nothing, and in parts divide. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA3oxfPIOStf
Laocoon, follow'd by a num'rous crowd, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA1lNbm8nWWP
Ran from the fort, and cried, from far, aloud: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAF2YO0hSjZF
'O wretched countrymen! what fury reigns? 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAayMqyBkZX7
What more than madness has possess'd your brains? 1104Please respect copyright.PENANASp5EqhrnIJ
Think you the Grecians from your coasts are gone? 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAIjm2QHJH7s
And are Ulysses' arts no better known? 1104Please respect copyright.PENANADmSqBKrkVo
This hollow fabric either must inclose, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAuA0IG2OTNe
Within its blind recess, our secret foes; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAT5hE9n98P3
Or 't is an engine rais'd above the town, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA7anSO14KoX
T' o'erlook the walls, and then to batter down. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAxiD9Hv2UNd
Somewhat is sure design'd, by fraud or force: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAPp0qx6o4H5
Trust not their presents, nor admit the horse.' 1104Please respect copyright.PENANACwoNtM7tDp
Thus having said, against the steed he threw 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAGFRp5L18kT
His forceful spear, which, hissing as flew, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAcEL3CHOjC5
Pierc'd thro' the yielding planks of jointed wood, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAEFiSSR2pRj
And trembling in the hollow belly stood. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAV8yb8QXdsd
The sides, transpierc'd, return a rattling sound, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAmnhlsswQrD
And groans of Greeks inclos'd come issuing thro' the wound 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAPgpbt4IOPn
And, had not Heav'n the fall of Troy design'd, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAwFxpAIeiKI
Or had not men been fated to be blind, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA6W4NypkWFw
Enough was said and done t'inspire a better mind. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAScXMnc79k9
Then had our lances pierc'd the treach'rous wood, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAHBK3bzTch0
And Ilian tow'rs and Priam's empire stood. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA1bd35v9doB
Meantime, with shouts, the Trojan shepherds bring 1104Please respect copyright.PENANArwMM8IiHI6
A captive Greek, in bands, before the king; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAnhEojlgXZd
Taken to take; who made himself their prey, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAMo7cPjaTdl
T' impose on their belief, and Troy betray; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAJIRrJIbSdX
Fix'd on his aim, and obstinately bent 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAaN1Oc4tUMt
To die undaunted, or to circumvent. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA9J0R5H6naj
About the captive, tides of Trojans flow; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAk4lwatEBZz
All press to see, and some insult the foe. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAFOpDrICqWw
Now hear how well the Greeks their wiles disguis'd; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAWDkZ18Zq9x
Behold a nation in a man compris'd. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAgTZx9347kS
Trembling the miscreant stood, unarm'd and bound; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAOi4p3Vfunw
He star'd, and roll'd his haggard eyes around, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAfwkAMM1Qzq
Then said: 'Alas! what earth remains, what sea 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAeb8uRtenNF
Is open to receive unhappy me? 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA9Z6wSeet6D
What fate a wretched fugitive attends, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAwgmoXFxVZs
Scorn'd by my foes, abandon'd by my friends?' 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA66UQ69BQTH
He said, and sigh'd, and cast a rueful eye: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAsKXBJCC2XD
Our pity kindles, and our passions die. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAS1upVJDVGR
We cheer youth to make his own defense, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAW9vPSFLaek
And freely tell us what he was, and whence: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANARTi4uiKhmF
What news he could impart, we long to know, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAYfdqwmh2xy
And what to credit from a captive foe. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAoxP5DKPMnO
"His fear at length dismiss'd, he said: 'Whate'er 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAjQXHiwdTYe
My fate ordains, my words shall be sincere: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAf9J6ASXgvi
I neither can nor dare my birth disclaim; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANApUH8xwWERG
Greece is my country, Sinon is my name. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA2Vcko779ZH
Tho' plung'd by Fortune's pow'r in misery, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAaQJzcCAdvK
'T is not in Fortune's pow'r to make me lie. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAVYbMsNX9w8
If any chance has hither brought the name 1104Please respect copyright.PENANATUy5D16P2L
Of Palamedes, not unknown to fame, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAABdfmXXEGl
Who suffer'd from the malice of the times, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAssWQqESGPu
Accus'd and sentenc'd for pretended crimes, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAgJjqRKaig7
Because these fatal wars he would prevent; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAPjphNEgP08
Whose death the wretched Greeks too late lament- 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA9wB0orQi7t
Me, then a boy, my father, poor and bare 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAiHpHE1J09B
Of other means, committed to his care, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA3cpF6wzziw
His kinsman and companion in the war. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAbuiKN7JUUT
While Fortune favor'd, while his arms support 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAjXJTdmoi2M
The cause, and rul'd the counsels, of the court, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAsnfPeAWOBU
I made some figure there; nor was my name 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAhQ6TTD83Lu
Obscure, nor I without my share of fame. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAU9zpp4w3Aq
But when Ulysses, with fallacious arts, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAeGcTlEOq0W
Had made impression in the people's hearts, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA61dPkgzmxi
And forg'd a treason in my patron's name 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA8OZVYFZcQD
(I speak of things too far divulg'd by fame), 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAmqwVhjcbNi
My kinsman fell. Then I, without support, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAiYHQNxCkic
In private mourn'd his loss, and left the court. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAioPiQ48MRr
Mad as I was, I could not bear his fate 1104Please respect copyright.PENANApTGv5FkLwD
With silent grief, but loudly blam'd the state, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA9H0qa7LYTx
And curs'd the direful author of my woes. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAhS7Pl5HGzo
'T was told again; and hence my ruin rose. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAIl3fLDQA4M
I threaten'd, if indulgent Heav'n once more 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAGilXxEW025
Would land me safely on my native shore, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAP14jGJ4evh
His death with double vengeance to restore. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA3m13OFOm6j
This mov'd the murderer's hate; and soon ensued 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAgcMVeqOTn4
Th' effects of malice from a man so proud. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAMDG4Db3ap9
Ambiguous rumors thro' the camp he spread, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA3GHvs4F4zC
And sought, by treason, my devoted head; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAUe4WrTUcUv
New crimes invented; left unturn'd no stone, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANArylWkwWNBB
To make my guilt appear, and hide his own; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAFT3StsgrCb
Till Calchas was by force and threat'ning wrought- 1104Please respect copyright.PENANArQzddBzdH4
But why- why dwell I on that anxious thought? 1104Please respect copyright.PENANADwgRSfQM99
If on my nation just revenge you seek, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAMIxWhXygoi
And 't is t' appear a foe, t' appear a Greek; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAA4tOlipkEu
Already you my name and country know; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAkrZnpYj2AT
Assuage your thirst of blood, and strike the blow: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAj0ucGM3D1X
My death will both the kingly brothers please, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA0iAdJDjwwN
And set insatiate Ithacus at ease.' 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAkD250ZRggb
This fair unfinish'd tale, these broken starts, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA3DCfIJvMxF
Rais'd expectations in our longing hearts: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAjd23dCH5L2
Unknowing as we were in Grecian arts. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANATLyYU5UA3U
His former trembling once again renew'd, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAsq4G8EHixT
With acted fear, the villain thus pursued: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAtsKUIUuWjL
"'Long had the Grecians (tir'd with fruitless care, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAc34oqegg6e
And wearied with an unsuccessful war) 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAVjnmxI0gqJ
Resolv'd to raise the siege, and leave the town; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAi8GOwB1V7f
And, had the gods permitted, they had gone; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAmbSEvVoLXe
But oft the wintry seas and southern winds 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAah2aRJ11yh
Withstood their passage home, and chang'd their minds. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAq1kPrEfzp0
Portents and prodigies their souls amaz'd; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAWsFLnnIodm
But most, when this stupendous pile was rais'd: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAIERLfPmI2N
Then flaming meteors, hung in air, were seen, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAzvAnwicB9S
And thunders rattled thro' a sky serene. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAOyxRXuIOS2
Dismay'd, and fearful of some dire event, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAdkYinRY7tB
Eurypylus t' enquire their fate was sent. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAxwh2iwfw9e
He from the gods this dreadful answer brought: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA7Mtzmc4c6V
"O Grecians, when the Trojan shores you sought, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANANCeZuleuC2
Your passage with a virgin's blood was bought: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAQDzHtCvS7E
So must your safe return be bought again, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAKkZOEG9y9O
And Grecian blood once more atone the main." 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAD3aXoQzuAn
The spreading rumor round the people ran; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAp4AdhogCWj
All fear'd, and each believ'd himself the man. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAMHv2UTqzUu
Ulysses took th' advantage of their fright; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAMIdhAWlLh1
Call'd Calchas, and produc'd in open sight: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANApLJokXZpru
Then bade him name the wretch, ordain'd by fate 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAJFWR6iM65s
The public victim, to redeem the state. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA8M5zNaNmxH
Already some presag'd the dire event, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA3Prh1SSvIl
And saw what sacrifice Ulysses meant. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAyidbmq6nsQ
For twice five days the good old seer withstood 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA2cokxEXiVy
Th' intended treason, and was dumb to blood, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANATsjvauF53M
Till, tir'd, with endless clamors and pursuit 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAZwyrTkKUwe
Of Ithacus, he stood no longer mute; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAFngf7XTIMC
But, as it was agreed, pronounc'd that I 1104Please respect copyright.PENANANznnqh38y7
Was destin'd by the wrathful gods to die. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAqQOgZvFKJc
All prais'd the sentence, pleas'd the storm should fall 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA2H3XmWJNov
On one alone, whose fury threaten'd all. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANArVkM8UtSjn
The dismal day was come; the priests prepare 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAt96KRAHxPr
Their leaven'd cakes, and fillets for my hair. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAb6bRW8zzBO
I follow'd nature's laws, and must avow 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAQgXaBExo99
I broke my bonds and fled the fatal blow. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAK9L3lhOlaA
Hid in a weedy lake all night I lay, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAXDCKohoacP
Secure of safety when they sail'd away. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAPSgJu6yLMY
But now what further hopes for me remain, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAjK6OyV0moy
To see my friends, or native soil, again; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAXZ6pr36Zsx
My tender infants, or my careful sire, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAwdvqEB5cdW
Whom they returning will to death require; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAJmDjCgU7xS
Will perpetrate on them their first design, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAXeV067uLFq
And take the forfeit of their heads for mine? 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAy9KFKOl9ZO
Which, O! if pity mortal minds can move, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAetKOM9UkZv
If there be faith below, or gods above, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAKmjaJnI3NU
If innocence and truth can claim desert, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAgmUAMflFpy
Ye Trojans, from an injur'd wretch avert.' 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAL51El46zva
"False tears true pity move; the king commands 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAgpjWYvtDZX
To loose his fetters, and unbind his hands: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAo6ZafQIicb
Then adds these friendly words: 'Dismiss thy fears; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA0NuzQIJfac
Forget the Greeks; be mine as thou wert theirs. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANANwYmf00mNl
But truly tell, was it for force or guile, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA0EuZJO0fMA
Or some religious end, you rais'd the pile?' 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAdn1ibspBVf
Thus said the king. He, full of fraudful arts, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAYfruRlCFQM
This well-invented tale for truth imparts: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAUFA8SWKW3K
'Ye lamps of heav'n!' he said, and lifted high 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAdNbtJqnnxy
His hands now free, 'thou venerable sky! 1104Please respect copyright.PENANALQIVBt0LXn
Inviolable pow'rs, ador'd with dread! 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAjgwFqvcmMS
Ye fatal fillets, that once bound this head! 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA0CyVuWL580
Ye sacred altars, from whose flames I fled! 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAcxWNp3mIUB
Be all of you adjur'd; and grant I may, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAjGTiTLnqF1
Without a crime, th' ungrateful Greeks betray, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAFBu0e44yOx
Reveal the secrets of the guilty state, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAnLxPSVzkov
And justly punish whom I justly hate! 1104Please respect copyright.PENANALveFPdu1IE
But you, O king, preserve the faith you gave, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAc9Ds8V5p9S
If I, to save myself, your empire save. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAgirbIkV6ca
The Grecian hopes, and all th' attempts they made, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAMybtDnRAnV
Were only founded on Minerva's aid. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAvDFykbucFN
But from the time when impious Diomede, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAjw3pLTgXOr
And false Ulysses, that inventive head, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAyd83pSKaqr
Her fatal image from the temple drew, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAbaMScEZzTN
The sleeping guardians of the castle slew, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAIjjnlPdC61
Her virgin statue with their bloody hands 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAsZeiSDgzAv
Polluted, and profan'd her holy bands; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA5dMZNcIX7t
From thence the tide of fortune left their shore, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA5BWbv9MEnF
And ebb'd much faster than it flow'd before: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAvxejNWPFa3
Their courage languish'd, as their hopes decay'd; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAM5CUTWhOV5
And Pallas, now averse, refus'd her aid. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANANDjWcXM89r
Nor did the goddess doubtfully declare 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAGFH4Va2Txg
Her alter'd mind and alienated care. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAGt9UjiGjP8
When first her fatal image touch'd the ground, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAIf8BYAJ985
She sternly cast her glaring eyes around, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAaQ6N319k0i
That sparkled as they roll'd, and seem'd to threat: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANANLmXWI0oyB
Her heav'nly limbs distill'd a briny sweat. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAWzcGrCllXW
Thrice from the ground she leap'd, was seen to wield 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAaPSlTwJJyd
Her brandish'd lance, and shake her horrid shield. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA0QFBbIeaDY
Then Calchas bade our host for flight 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA5XAtk9JA2U
And hope no conquest from the tedious war, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAWrtQXK8kKT
Till first they sail'd for Greece; with pray'rs besought 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAOMbjZ3fc4K
Her injur'd pow'r, and better omens brought. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAwUTTkPPiDS
And now their navy plows the wat'ry main, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAoxBolIAZXS
Yet soon expect it on your shores again, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAUwyQkLsnac
With Pallas pleas'd; as Calchas did ordain. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAVp5qsKKd7n
But first, to reconcile the blue-ey'd maid 1104Please respect copyright.PENANANwn4nYZRGt
For her stol'n statue and her tow'r betray'd, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAVAxelHh94z
Warn'd by the seer, to her offended name 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAKWzTwz5GJI
We rais'd and dedicate this wondrous frame, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAUr6Kxd79qH
So lofty, lest thro' your forbidden gates 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAvYKm5oQM96
It pass, and intercept our better fates: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAAyYJOx1wDq
For, once admitted there, our hopes are lost; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAm3oFnMjtns
And Troy may then a new Palladium boast; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA6n6YMCp4Eo
For so religion and the gods ordain, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAT5JE6HwLab
That, if you violate with hands profane 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAvVhCoGkMp9
Minerva's gift, your town in flames shall burn, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAELq1FP720K
(Which omen, O ye gods, on Graecia turn!) 1104Please respect copyright.PENANARXyx9BgDoW
But if it climb, with your assisting hands, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAJ9bETSTVms
The Trojan walls, and in the city stands; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAoPLzHNuZCh
Then Troy shall Argos and Mycenae burn, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAaB60WoX8S0
And the reverse of fate on us return.' 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAqWhOu4POfd
"With such deceits he gain'd their easy hearts, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAuofonhhKEs
Too prone to credit his perfidious arts. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAA0M3WjP4vk
What Diomede, nor Thetis' greater son, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAOL7TxYnU4H

False tears and fawning words the city won. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAdAIfu8e3Sg

Concurring to produce the dire event. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAQyVhlHiadI
Laocoon, Neptune's priest by lot that year, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAWoP7fRjB6e
With solemn pomp then sacrific'd a steer; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAUG71TkQpHi
When, dreadful to behold, from sea we spied 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAqt9pSqvIYe
Two serpents, rank'd abreast, the seas divide, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAjvIlw7hM6Q
And smoothly sweep along the swelling tide. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANACAY4d1ZBsA
Their flaming crests above the waves they show; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAwwhogoCOmN
Their bellies seem to burn the seas below; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAhXHHy8g6Kb
Their speckled tails advance to steer their course, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAfryhmjYbPD
And on the sounding shore the flying billows force. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANABg5OFgV6zX
And now the strand, and now the plain they held; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAqGAbcKItZD
Their ardent eyes with bloody streaks were fill'd; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAuAWbYgYvj2
Their nimble tongues they brandish'd as they came, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAsN8On0DFyk
And lick'd their hissing jaws, that sputter'd flame. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAv8JLjaYAtU
We fled amaz'd; their destin'd way they take, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAgzXkDlFOpS
And to Laocoon and his children make; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANALWeMswSv0b
And first around the tender boys they wind, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA2a5GRt8Ysu
Then with their sharpen'd fangs their limbs and bodies grind. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAx6TFk7MDTe
The wretched father, running to their aid 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA76agoONCFB
With pious haste, but vain, they next invade; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA9SwdD4m9VJ
Twice round his waist their winding volumes roll'd; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAaGIVYg0McA
And twice about his gasping throat they fold. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAxmUjdOLekK
The priest thus doubly chok'd, their crests divide, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAFuPmBJqZlr
And tow'ring o'er his head in triumph ride. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA0u8AduwXw1
With both his hands he labors at the knots; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAGQQ4A0CFYa
His holy fillets the blue venom blots; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANADkG1etEsSw
His roaring fills the flitting air around. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA81cbxPp2G2
Thus, when an ox receives a glancing wound, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANACwvPHlcBEQ
He breaks his bands, the fatal altar flies, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAgY3JxVUSb9
And with loud bellowings breaks the yielding skies. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA39mzN9IdEn
Their tasks perform'd, the serpents quit their prey, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAF5SPMBYq4S
And to the tow'r of Pallas make their way: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAgmJs5tS2S7
Couch'd at her feet, they lie protected there 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAWTpBF6zquO
By her large buckler and protended spear. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAm9yDFQNm5N
Amazement seizes all; the gen'ral cry 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAID3OcfnXRi
Proclaims Laocoon justly doom'd to die, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAn7PK69nBP2
Whose hand the will of Pallas had withstood, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAc2q5VUGcva
And dared to violate the sacred wood. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANArpKhL2BSGU
All vote t' admit the steed, that vows be paid 1104Please respect copyright.PENANASp0uZryiCE
And incense offer'd to th' offended maid. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAucjEe7Qb6x
A spacious breach is made; the town lies bare; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA5Zo724WrXf
Some hoisting-levers, some the wheels prepare 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA7slvQjVZOn
And fasten to the horse's feet; the rest 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAAWp9UBG8fT
With cables haul along th' unwieldly beast. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAcvwqtha962
Each on his fellow for assistance calls; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANABVTioh6SrV
At length the fatal fabric mounts the walls, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAXy4yuYo9p2
Big with destruction. Boys with chaplets crown'd, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAkF6Yd2EZ63
And choirs of virgins, sing and dance around. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAYog3JTCPhT
Thus rais'd aloft, and then descending down, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAuiIn9mhS2G
It enters o'er our heads, and threats the town. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAdqFyLFMZ54
O sacred city, built by hands divine! 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAkgSftC2FrM
O valiant heroes of the Trojan line! 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA9qvQvAil3A
Four times he struck: as oft the clashing sound 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAIeVlqXlORB
Of arms was heard, and inward groans rebound. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAFL5JB7nCW8
Yet, mad with zeal, and blinded with our fate, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAHapKaoCsCR
We haul along the horse in solemn state; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA2wZsxOARwu
Then place the dire portent within the tow'r. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA4thY1lVeVE
Cassandra cried, and curs'd th' unhappy hour; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAMc1RsB98ug
Foretold our fate; but, by the god's decree, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANApYjOWbwFXn
All heard, and none believ'd the prophecy. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA8t7UBWPP4y
With branches we the fanes adorn, and waste, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA2GTCONdiBk
In jollity, the day ordain'd to be the last. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAATWzSOCI5l
Meantime the rapid heav'ns roll'd down the light, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANApzHsLHT6PF
And on the shaded ocean rush'd the night; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAExfFWIAGLK
Our men, secure, nor guards nor sentries held, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAPD51JBV7tk
But easy sleep their weary limbs compell'd. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAzkbay25tdY
The Grecians had embark'd their naval pow'rs 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAaE5nGyPyi3
From Tenedos, and sought our well-known shores, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAySC5olESTX
Safe under covert of the silent night, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAYSLWfqTeDo
And guided by th' imperial galley's light; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANArJGziITkp4
When Sinon, favor'd by the partial gods, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANArkxBvLCDn8
Unlock'd the horse, and op'd his dark abodes; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAgo6aui8rmB
Restor'd to vital air our hidden foes, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAouoUE2Dmqd
Who joyful from their long confinement rose. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA7yZY301pnd
Tysander bold, and Sthenelus their guide, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAKnBKsXik8o
And dire Ulysses down the cable slide: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAmdf1kafwms
Then Thoas, Athamas, and Pyrrhus haste; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAa8aKuyTCa3
Nor was the Podalirian hero last, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA6Eji1SVwWy
Nor injur'd Menelaus, nor the fam'd 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAxBlC2OFg8P
Epeus, who the fatal engine fram'd. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAqFyeWUhn1R
A nameless crowd succeed; their forces join 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAE0VDOtEmNN
T' invade the town, oppress'd with sleep and wine. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANApOeowtI6fV
Those few they find awake first meet their fate; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANASi5mPYBr6M
Then to their fellows they unbar the gate. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA8VyAKpn39F
"'T was in the dead of night, when sleep repairs 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA3JOT9t0HHu
Our bodies worn with toils, our minds with cares, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAxGlzDdzC8t
When Hector's ghost before my sight appears: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAIknuonG1e4
A bloody shroud he seem'd, and bath'd in tears; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA82V2bJb2Mi
Such as he was, when, by Pelides slain, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAJdkugDYdBh
Thessalian coursers dragg'd him o'er the plain. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAVx53UhDqs2
Swoln were his feet, as when the thongs were thrust 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA2rpzVcE603
Thro' the bor'd holes; his body black with dust; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANALxv6zhA863
Unlike that Hector who return'd from toils 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAhrW6Vfh6JD
Of war, triumphant, in Aeacian spoils, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAqGsycQJFH1
Or him who made the fainting Greeks retire, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAee1lRiKqX8
And launch'd against their navy Phrygian fire. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA4tugnn9e1S
His hair and beard stood stiffen'd with his gore; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAzAZ9UFWH7Z
And all the wounds he for his country bore 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAvyATlkFEJd
Now stream'd afresh, and with new purple ran. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA1CiF6PKP0v
I wept to see the visionary man, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAfU8G2s6Wjr
And, while my trance continued, thus began: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA1LolvB3gBC
'O light of Trojans, and support of Troy, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAwOIWb43JOV
Thy father's champion, and thy country's joy! 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAwrNWUOWTjP
O, long expected by thy friends! from whence 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAmWKkIrsNW2
Art thou so late return'd for our defense? 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAl9CcwVtGA2
Do we behold thee, wearied as we are 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAwTx4knaZ2B
With length of labors, and with toils of war? 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAPnvuz8TbiA
After so many fun'rals of thy own 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAWOLYGg25zx
Art thou restor'd to thy declining town? 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAtukFOqzSsF
But say, what wounds are these? What new disgrace 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAKJNh3QHxP5
Deforms the manly features of thy face?' 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAmjv6USVOXV
"To this the specter no reply did frame, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAwHSGJ6ctT2
But answer'd to the cause for which he came, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAuL36tGVHjT
And, groaning from the bottom of his breast, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANADJqk00QLCL
This warning in these mournful words express'd: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAGpNTPiJH5E
'O goddess-born! escape, by timely flight, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAOaWBlKaiPM
The flames and horrors of this fatal night. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAUpDekI4G8p
The foes already have possess'd the wall; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA6OPALYB0UG
Troy nods from high, and totters to her fall. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA3VmJYrrcE0
Enough is paid to Priam's royal name, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAhD1KOmBx0y
More than enough to duty and to fame. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANACITvVSFsMu
If by a mortal hand my father's throne 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAkQhCNGGEx4
Could be defended, 't was by mine alone. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAe7WdwFLM8r
Now Troy to thee commends her future state, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAMX8CiNudJI
And gives her gods companions of thy fate: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAuGNh4L40iv
From their assistance walls expect, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANACUrRUp69Sq
Which, wand'ring long, at last thou shalt erect.' 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAVKm8OtCJGG
He said, and brought me, from their blest abodes, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAEcC5IuJRUM
The venerable statues of the gods, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA2v4X7MqEHb
With ancient Vesta from the sacred choir, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAZSvisADjKW
The wreaths and relics of th' immortal fire. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAhHPI7YGv1L
"Now peals of shouts come thund'ring from afar, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA13FhdD7VLG
Cries, threats, and loud laments, and mingled war: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAPYf5djj1lW
The noise approaches, tho' our palace stood 1104Please respect copyright.PENANArVKPvkS4Ib
Aloof from streets, encompass'd with a wood. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAck9PZ8woxD
Louder, and yet more loud, I hear th' alarms 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAHpHNScnou2
Of human cries distinct, and clashing arms. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANASQeq3Z4sJU
Fear broke my slumbers; I no longer stay, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAy3l2XGu7yG
But mount the terrace, thence the town survey, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANALkKtu12fh6
And hearken what the frightful sounds convey. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANANEL1wTvXqo
Thus, when a flood of fire by wind is borne, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAYG7iErw31N
Crackling it rolls, and mows the standing corn; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAoWmPyjxJVq
Or deluges, descending on the plains, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA9Qr8RqtlOJ
Sweep o'er the yellow year, destroy the pains 1104Please respect copyright.PENANADBzqoO4gLo
Of lab'ring oxen and the peasant's gains; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAADj7lJhqJE
Unroot the forest oaks, and bear away 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA8JDmvNJs04
Flocks, folds, and trees, and undistinguish'd prey: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAfxVnmuQato
The shepherd climbs the cliff, and sees from far 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAXuaJHsjTD7
The wasteful ravage of the wat'ry war. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAkTeQBlSpwb
Then Hector's faith was manifestly clear'd, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA4GPoTEM3LS
And Grecian frauds in open light appear'd. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANADv6WIfBSCt
The palace of Deiphobus ascends 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA1e5xd6tU1X
In smoky flames, and catches on his friends. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAHGqsWThRDq
Ucalegon burns next: the seas are bright 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAvj3b1DbyiR
With splendor not their own, and shine with Trojan light. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAe7SqyRJUPm
New clamors and new clangors now arise, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAl5Nq1jqCWF
The sound of trumpets mix'd with fighting cries. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANABiVAHAVOJw
With frenzy seiz'd, I run to meet th' alarms, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAHFk8QeOc4h
Resolv'd on death, resolv'd to die in arms, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANArxNjmXUfiO
But first to gather friends, with them t' oppose 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAzLSPOK3gst
(If fortune favor'd) and repel the foes; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAjoh8aLgBDQ
Spurr'd by my courage, by my country fir'd, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAkzBXYEtFWy
With sense of honor and revenge inspir'd. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAByW9u8Ks9m
"Pantheus, Apollo's priest, a sacred name, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA0cu6kQ22o6
Had scap'd the Grecian swords, and pass'd the flame: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANADDkUa8Jf1h
With relics loaden. to my doors he fled, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAa6ttRAdscZ
And by the hand his tender grandson led. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAQX3LVvtJ2s
'What hope, O Pantheus? whither can we run? 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAK71VVNfyjp
Where make a stand? and what may yet be done?' 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAcIIHqjAIWQ
Scarce had I said, when Pantheus, with a groan: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAXZX8J5YLhd
'Troy is no more, and Ilium was a town! 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAAmNVK1jXea
The fatal day, th' appointed hour, is come, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANADG7Yt6H166
When wrathful Jove's irrevocable doom 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAjex1Wjj4D1
Transfers the Trojan state to Grecian hands. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA5bEFw5WKGX
The fire consumes the town, the foe commands; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAlGinZGr8I9
And armed hosts, an unexpected force, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAuXAMqJEnXF
Break from the bowels of the fatal horse. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAXyfYG0qV3L
Within the gates, proud Sinon throws about 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAYKgugoedLj
The flames; and foes for entrance press without, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAm4nl0S4wa4
With thousand others, whom I fear to name, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA1HGVPRDcyv
More than from Argos or Mycenae came. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAvTxmbsaPkS
To sev'ral posts their parties they divide; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAWO47sn4g3c
Some block the narrow streets, some scour the wide: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAk9WSm0tooa
The bold they kill, th' unwary they surprise; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAoNKnTujaf3
Who fights finds death, and death finds him who flies. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAzBzXMUHML2
The warders of the gate but scarce maintain 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAbtnn1gVEsm
Th' unequal combat, and resist in vain.' 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAhStdyPGOwC
"I heard; and Heav'n, that well-born souls inspires, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAyanh2F5zTV
Prompts me thro' lifted swords and rising fires 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAU5k8EPIcm6
To run where clashing arms and clamor calls, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA1gj9KLAac9
And rush undaunted to defend the walls. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAc5HUvAKsY3
Ripheus and Iph'itus by my side engage, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAgwvO6nyPEC
For valor one renown'd, and one for age. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA32mGjYDGxX
Dymas and Hypanis by moonlight knew 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAz1OhRFBQKc
My motions and my mien, and to my party drew; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAcdcik1Khty
With young Coroebus, who by love was led 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAJW8gGec4Ku
To win renown and fair Cassandra's bed, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAQI76QZWSeb
And lately brought his troops to Priam's aid, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAMVHBEQ3sjM
Forewarn'd in vain by the prophetic maid. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAElgAwxaOV9
Whom when I saw resolv'd in arms to fall, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAJQkfZVT4Rp
And that one spirit animated all: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAvmXcRTxJTC
'Brave souls!' said I,- 'but brave, alas! in vain- 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAQfqw9rJcLp
Come, finish what our cruel fates ordain. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAm1C2j3ZXS0
You see the desp'rate state of our affairs, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAk4sDy3IkzE
And heav'n's protecting pow'rs are deaf to pray'rs. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAetXR7OA1dq
The passive gods behold the Greeks defile 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAIUq1ABMI7u
Their temples, and abandon to the spoil 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAqm5XvBtsmW
Their own abodes: we, feeble few, conspire 1104Please respect copyright.PENANArCENhF8Sk3
To save a sinking town, involv'd in fire. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAcyps0M5dAC
Then let us fall, but fall amidst our foes: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANARffKieoNEb
Despair of life the means of living shows.' 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAq8rD75uIlQ
So bold a speech incourag'd their desire 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA2pqi7rrzeS
Of death, and added fuel to their fire. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAEQhHiyHHwr
"As hungry wolves, with raging appetite, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAKSgTP6iUBV
Scour thro' the fields, nor fear the stormy night- 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAljQpvn5bGi
Their whelps at home expect the promis'd food, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAmS9O2GOHKV
And long to temper their dry chaps in blood- 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA9eoesh1cIq
So rush'd we forth at once; resolv'd to die, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAx3mbNGPhxv
Resolv'd, in death, the last extremes to try. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAGY5gHzwGUf
We leave the narrow lanes behind, and dare 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAC0AggfveCK
Th' unequal combat in the public square: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAEMYlaWiuNt
Night was our friend; our leader was despair. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANATPdg938Zly
What tongue can tell the slaughter of that night? 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAO4jfRb4pyA
What eyes can weep the sorrows and affright? 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAgxtqWoWd4C
An ancient and imperial city falls: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAGtyeQVA05L
The streets are fill'd with frequent funerals; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAxqM1uZCrOi
Houses and holy temples float in blood, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAkBmOdYIdz0
And hostile nations make a common flood. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAaAU23LAuJ1
Not only Trojans fall; but, in their turn, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAUBTCkGuP8E
The vanquish'd triumph, and the victors mourn. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAYQC7qWACWz
Ours take new courage from despair and night: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAlinQbazFK8
Confus'd the fortune is, confus'd the fight. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAbfQJeWD3oH
All parts resound with tumults, plaints, and fears; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAznAuGcHSFz
And grisly Death in sundry shapes appears. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA9Rz9A5RGPL
Androgeos fell among us, with his band, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAFlfCPOqIFl
Who thought us Grecians newly come to land. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANANtbuhw7WrO
'From whence,' said he, 'my friends, this long delay? 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA5xQV0hBzgl
You loiter, while the spoils are borne away: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANApIr2KqbQ9h
Our ships are laden with the Trojan store; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAGMClKrs7fH
And you, like truants, come too late ashore.' 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAfW0wUq3E3S
He said, but soon corrected his mistake, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAgEadutofyj
Found, by the doubtful answers which we make: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANACHi6GMNT5k
Amaz'd, he would have shunn'd th' unequal fight; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAvCi5MhrRn2
But we, more num'rous, intercept his flight. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANARlJ4aOv6sV
As when some peasant, in a bushy brake, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAGPkZRu2iFL
Has with unwary footing press'd a snake; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANALs0lVu51i2
He starts aside, astonish'd, when he spies 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA0CTRQKp9zn
His rising crest, blue neck, and rolling eyes; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANApPKfW5fX39
So from our arms surpris'd Androgeos flies. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAh8rpelWukT
In vain; for him and his we compass'd round, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAsKnLQHGsND
Possess'd with fear, unknowing of the ground, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA3ogqKKCxZH
And of their lives an easy conquest found. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA6GfRPPnC4j
Thus Fortune on our first endeavor smil'd. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAb9QlI9jNRo
Coroebus then, with youthful hopes beguil'd, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAje5kSMiv3k
Swoln with success, and a daring mind, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAQdYNGcY6BZ
This new invention fatally design'd. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAG5EPgpMeub
'My friends,' said he, 'since Fortune shows the way, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAgPTyyqna1Y
'T is fit we should th' auspicious guide obey. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAwlw0oq7KCR
For what has she these Grecian arms bestow'd, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAoQvn5foixT
But their destruction, and the Trojans' good? 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAlelVLqceTX
Then change we shields, and their devices bear: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAnWt0ekJrfG

They find us arms.' This said, himself he dress'd 1104Please respect copyright.PENANARzu1IgD1Ki
In dead Androgeos' spoils, his upper vest, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAnvsMMgsgKK
His painted buckler, and his plumy crest. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANADRjX6fGPVF
Thus Ripheus, Dymas, all the Trojan train, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAs2JsZ3JOR0
Lay down their own attire, and strip the slain. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANALpK7ZHbDoe
Mix'd with the Greeks, we go with ill presage, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANADSGrT2M3Yz
Flatter'd with hopes to glut our greedy rage; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA4cYWCUHzOM
Unknown, assaulting whom we blindly meet, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA1AK4XW82lM
And strew with Grecian carcasses the street. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAQKy8jF7aFK
Thus while their straggling parties we defeat, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAeqRG1sTjWW
Some to the shore and safer ships retreat; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAOw7aWXPBFO
And some, oppress'd with more ignoble fear, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAvIPoayymLZ
Remount the hollow horse, and pant in secret there. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAvFqGHPyFVE
"But, ah! what use of valor can be made, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAa0rIXcKgC7
When heav'n's propitious pow'rs refuse their aid! 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA5L703ksi5w
Behold the royal prophetess, the fair 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAb9xnRY6LvS
Cassandra, dragg'd by her dishevel'd hair, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAIQ9u0TTkha
Whom not Minerva's shrine, nor sacred bands, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAvCUPJZon6y
In safety could protect from sacrilegious hands: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANANb0mWr33WI
On heav'n she cast her eyes, she sigh'd, she cried- 1104Please respect copyright.PENANApMG5u3XpWo
'T was all she could- her tender arms were tied. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAyHNpqPeYON
So sad a sight Coroebus could not bear; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAZ4Rck6gYii
But, fir'd with rage, distracted with despair, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAdueAEKvWUE
Amid the barb'rous ravishers he flew: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAr2fhAHEcwN
Our leader's rash example we pursue. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA3dYzZqDZJh
But storms of stones, from the proud temple's height, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANArDhxzkjKeF
Pour down, and on our batter'd helms alight: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAOHxBBRCvxM
We from our friends receiv'd this fatal blow, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAiDUaLTR1VU
Who thought us Grecians, as we seem'd in show. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAZcu4cfsBWi
They aim at the mistaken crests, from high; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANApI9mh7mxVc
And ours beneath the pond'rous ruin lie. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAotCuvbS9C7
Then, mov'd with anger and disdain, to see 1104Please respect copyright.PENANASwhmUFqolz
Their troops dispers'd, the royal virgin free, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANApa68pzgQTI
The Grecians rally, and their pow'rs unite, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA8EyFeqIIyB
With fury charge us, and renew the fight. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAQOOcYOQdb5
The brother kings with Ajax join their force, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANALfzwe78c8e
And the whole squadron of Thessalian horse. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAhsP9q8ziKW
"Thus, when the rival winds their quarrel try, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAPXWleg6m3B
Contending for the kingdom of the sky, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA9mWqS3oNOe
South, east, and west, on airy coursers borne; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAHe8vWCcdVi
The whirlwind gathers, and the woods are torn: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANApj105X5eGv
Then Nereus strikes the deep; the billows rise, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANACxUgK3APUs
And, mix'd with ooze and sand, pollute the skies. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAkikD19pJOR
The troops we squander'd first again appear 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAtbkTGFF7os
From several quarters, and enclose the rear. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAiXAsGTlGiR
They first observe, and to the rest betray, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAi00aFWktqo
Our diff'rent speech; our borrow'd arms survey. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAXQMUnBErwu
Oppress'd with odds, we fall; Coroebus first, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAQTpTsd2fPy
At Pallas' altar, by Peneleus pierc'd. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAs84VxsPUmL
Then Ripheus follow'd, in th' unequal fight; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANADvQ0KQGwhW
Just of his word, observant of the right: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA4dRRj51csD
Heav'n thought not so. Dymas their fate attends, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAsPPPcETFIA
With Hypanis, mistaken by their friends. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAmuKeUQV6XD
Nor, Pantheus, thee, thy miter, nor the bands 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA3O7CIyvHD8
Of awful Phoebus, sav'd from impious hands. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAngbAJEEhCG
Ye Trojan flames, your testimony bear, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAJwMIz9tdFb
What I perform'd, and what I suffer'd there; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA36oOT8AhuX
No sword avoiding in the fatal strife, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA6zf2bDIkZv
Expos'd to death, and prodigal of life; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAdlBiSPE9Jo
Witness, ye heavens! I live not by my fault: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA4WSqYEBmA2
I strove to have deserv'd the death I sought. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAmmGZTeFRGP
But, when I could not fight, and would have died, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAR3Mu2gT3r3
Borne off to distance by the growing tide, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAjk56hRqaPz
Old Iphitus and I were hurried thence, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANARvPLG1dVhH
With Pelias wounded, and without defense. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA94hXknPdmy
New clamors from th' invested palace ring: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAjgAncgThax
We run to die, or disengage the king. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAbogdB7lR90
So hot th' assault, so high the tumult rose, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAWPy3Su74VU
While ours defend, and while the Greeks oppose 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAFrVhjPTnNC
As all the Dardan and Argolic race 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAx6FZoj2qmC
Had been contracted in that narrow space; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA6IxCUXg0ft
Or as all Ilium else were void of fear, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAVoYx9AZthZ
And tumult, war, and slaughter, only there. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAwoiOcK96xj
Their targets in a tortoise cast, the foes, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAJ2GKOLKpCL
Secure advancing, to the turrets rose: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA6z257jXs5v
Some mount the scaling ladders; some, more bold, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA9YJSUFVhTr
Swerve upwards, and by posts and pillars hold; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAHfDb9cavSn
Their left hand gripes their bucklers in th' ascent, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANACZRLaAhcrX
While with their right they seize the battlement. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAjDIVihzXuP
From their demolish'd tow'rs the Trojans throw 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA5TiWHiekFp
Huge heaps of stones, that, falling, crush the foe; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAvCU50SaUJN
And heavy beams and rafters from the sides 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAmoysI3AdjH
(Such arms their last necessity provides) 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAXc4mITLm3P
And gilded roofs, come tumbling from on high, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAsHfCz4FET5
The marks of state and ancient royalty. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAGBTEmavkuv
The guards below, fix'd in the pass, attend 1104Please respect copyright.PENANALp7TTMYYtZ
The charge undaunted, and the gate defend. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAabONfkD6MJ
Renew'd in courage with recover'd breath, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAZgv7fMzUN0
A second time we ran to tempt our death, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAL7QMFXMDkt
To clear the palace from the foe, succeed 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAWrXudyBuMx
The weary living, and revenge the dead. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAmzuSb7lBYv
"A postern door, yet unobserv'd and free, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA3k7RB1ZROR
Join'd by the length of a blind gallery, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAX5d8uAgd2W
To the king's closet led: a way well known 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAbhh1I3WR1G
To Hector's wife, while Priam held the throne, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAxuoqZmnkBB
Thro' which she brought Astyanax, unseen, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAYaHfhSf0DC
To cheer his grandsire and his grandsire's queen. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA7QJYqjnGR5
Thro' this we pass, and mount the tow'r, from whence 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAf2POOPT6Ao
With unavailing arms the Trojans make defense. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAQGwNda5Pq7
From this the trembling king had oft descried 1104Please respect copyright.PENANACGOITe9cuT
The Grecian camp, and saw their navy ride. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAo41lMSxRCj
Beams from its lofty height with swords we hew, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAR9tVqajVvn
Then, wrenching with our hands, th' assault renew; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAsMNLj0UGDK
And, where the rafters on the columns meet, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAbX5Lq4Upk6
We push them headlong with our arms and feet. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAD6Lh78xpZo
The lightning flies not swifter than the fall, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAy6rPXHHucH
Nor thunder louder than the ruin'd wall: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAH5jceXaHmk
Down goes the top at once; the Greeks beneath 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAz89DTp5oHZ
Are piecemeal torn, or pounded into death. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAtHS9D6zq2z
Yet more succeed, and more to death are sent; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAT5W1ja78f4
We cease not from above, nor they below relent. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAxHPtlEJqh5
Before the gate stood Pyrrhus, threat'ning loud, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA1ddLLrjnri
With glitt'ring arms conspicuous in the crowd. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAE5pZxKci5Q
So shines, renew'd in youth, the crested snake, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAGYDl5BYYEs
Who slept the winter in a thorny brake, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAhMxRyGnvhv
And, casting off his slough when spring returns, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANATfdu9ESX44
Now looks aloft, and with new glory burns; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA3BQxGxGL3H
Restor'd with poisonous herbs, his ardent sides 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAmaKUM5xTMQ
Reflect the sun; and rais'd on spires he rides; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAxOkkWnzunh
High o'er the grass, hissing he rolls along, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAPYmeML1CSU
And brandishes by fits his forky tongue. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAOIb1xLuYXW
Proud Periphas, and fierce Automedon, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAA3NdVYefVM
His father's charioteer, together run 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAcil1FNgji6
To force the gate; the Scyrian infantry 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAN8Mfw7Uf06
Rush on in crowds, and the barr'd passage free. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAd3LzuvfFNs
Ent'ring the court, with shouts the skies they rend; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANADUvRero4iW
And flaming firebrands to the roofs ascend. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA1hhPYqqoNS
Himself, among the foremost, deals his blows, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAnw7HEktM35
And with his ax repeated strokes bestows 1104Please respect copyright.PENANACNy56O6Xzk
On the strong doors; then all their shoulders ply, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAcYNz0cVohJ
Till from the posts the brazen hinges fly. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAIKW23yWcx2
He hews apace; the double bars at length 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA2Oi5kxC5tS
Yield to his ax and unresisted strength. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANATLehwOFD7H
A mighty breach is made: the rooms conceal'd 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAkv6LQ5KPMT
Appear, and all the palace is reveal'd; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAAcLNtzkVgz
The halls of audience, and of public state, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAvupiCfVV20
And where the lonely queen in secret sate. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAxZeQ3hCyfF
Arm'd soldiers now by trembling maids are seen, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAlVNfR6v8UU
With not a door, and scarce a space, between. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANArKLuzjTLtM
The house is fill'd with loud laments and cries, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA2UlbJwewW0
And shrieks of women rend the vaulted skies; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAXgWDMr6lMo
The fearful matrons run from place to place, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAliyiVymsag
And kiss the thresholds, and the posts embrace. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAxkWNr8Odjn
The fatal work inhuman Pyrrhus plies, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANApUAVYHI4Gk
And all his father sparkles in his eyes; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANANmQIAKUGvW
Nor bars, nor fighting guards, his force sustain: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAk0C4yX4GJu
The bars are broken, and the guards are slain. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANApc8cWVlOcq
In rush the Greeks, and all the apartments fill; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAPcRVFMQp4V
Those few defendants whom they find, they kill. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAbKkm1MuyLR
Not with so fierce a rage the foaming flood 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAjRNIuxeWaL
Roars, when he finds his rapid course withstood; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAZnr08Og6aR
Bears down the dams with unresisted sway, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAL6FAZ3Vu16
And sweeps the cattle and the cots away. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAjQFS7LO8PH
These eyes beheld him when he march'd between 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAwo0WPse6JJ
The brother kings: I saw th' unhappy queen, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAfIiLdOeOGQ
The hundred wives, and where old Priam stood, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA2I7TV2VvRI
To stain his hallow'd altar with his brood. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANABC9ipCMxlU
The fifty nuptial beds (such hopes had he, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAfKx11un3We
So large a promise, of a progeny), 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAlXWwc0bczM
The posts, of plated gold, and hung with spoils, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAsJsrb2ZR12
Fell the reward of the proud victor's toils. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAVwJrGT4XJq
Where'er the raging fire had left a space, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAO7BUF3nyLx
The Grecians enter and possess the place. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAC2Gg4QwM9c
"Perhaps you may of Priam's fate enquire. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANARFhS2liO0e
He, when he saw his regal town on fire, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAYJI1WVIur9
His ruin'd palace, and his ent'ring foes, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAyv0nMXn1iE
On ev'ry side inevitable woes, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAtqTaoxn9Ye
In arms, disus'd, invests his limbs, decay'd, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAgdzW1N0elk
Like them, with age; a late and useless aid. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA1OmC7BiBbX
His feeble shoulders scarce the weight sustain; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAnmUVhNYqIY
Loaded, not arm'd, he creeps along with pain, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAspYLpcZOpG
Despairing of success, ambitious to be slain! 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAPLIRfxFQ84
Uncover'd but by heav'n, there stood in view 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAQSnmxLZcNM
An altar; near the hearth a laurel grew, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAtSdeckHqno
Dodder'd with age, whose boughs encompass round 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAD64Awk7tq9
The household gods, and shade the holy ground. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAPHNzHQJphi
Here Hecuba, with all her helpless train 1104Please respect copyright.PENANApEz9QMQC9Q
Of dames, for shelter sought, but sought in vain. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAu8RP23ofQn
Driv'n like a flock of doves along the sky, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAuLvQBDK1Hu
Their images they hug, and to their altars fly. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA5losAQotiR
The Queen, when she beheld her trembling lord, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANArniUopApXl
And hanging by his side a heavy sword, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAXBc4FoP6CY
'What rage,' she cried, 'has seiz'd my husband's mind? 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAng0M13UlZ9
What arms are these, and to what use design'd? 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAQI8UQEGRU9
These times want other aids! Were Hector here, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAcT32Yx0U2W
Ev'n Hector now in vain, like Priam, would appear. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAnshcp6mSRj
With us, one common shelter thou shalt find, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA7mnjI60pF2
Or in one common fate with us be join'd.' 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAyre6msAscs
She said, and with a last salute embrac'd 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAxRLTKuoGZF
The poor old man, and by the laurel plac'd. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAyNeQu9lhyS
Behold! Polites, one of Priam's sons, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAJEICxaQzA7
Pursued by Pyrrhus, there for safety runs. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA1y2kY20hVb
Thro' swords and foes, amaz'd and hurt, he flies 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAZWJVVnSr8p
Thro' empty courts and open galleries. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAs5WaXG7Oju
Him Pyrrhus, urging with his lance, pursues, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAwXXLnH7DxC
And often reaches, and his thrusts renews. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAdWY65skRex
The youth, transfix'd, with lamentable cries, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAPthfieLf9U
Expires before his wretched parent's eyes: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAP94BoCgdTJ
Whom gasping at his feet when Priam saw, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAYPbrpW3Pgm
The fear of death gave place to nature's law; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAqFMJHrO3xP
And, shaking more with anger than with age, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANARA2TgwYbP5
'The gods,' said he, 'requite thy brutal rage! 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAUXcezwLcNm
As sure they will, barbarian, sure they must, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAc5sVDS86xN
If there be gods in heav'n, and gods be just- 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAdnDfJBZmYH
Who tak'st in wrongs an insolent delight; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAC6aakI6Zx2
With a son's death t' infect a father's sight. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA2hnyCppClh
Not he, whom thou and lying fame conspire 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAXNrTVd8u9Q
To call thee his- not he, thy vaunted sire, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAH917cV4ECb
Thus us'd my wretched age: the gods he fear'd, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAKpnig497lW
The laws of nature and of nations heard. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAfDEeuvOR7c
He cheer'd my sorrows, and, for sums of gold, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAQpVo5kyvN8
The bloodless carcass of my Hector sold; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAmujRG6HTQL
Pitied the woes a parent underwent, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAuw8ABELUTv
And sent me back in safety from his tent.' 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAPI1LkNaW8M
"This said, his feeble hand a javelin threw, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAwbuoofR9cl
Which, flutt'ring, seem'd to loiter as it flew: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAOlsDVxVHCz
Just, and but barely, to the mark it held, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAfsH7uMtkKc
And faintly tinkled on the brazen shield. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA41C6nwJTee
"Then Pyrrhus thus: 'Go thou from me to fate, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAKuC2NcawFs
And to my father my foul deeds relate. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAiWTZEgU3JZ
Now die!' With that he dragg'd the trembling sire, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAj6G9XSoCej
Slidd'ring thro' clotter'd blood and holy mire, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAuSsSc2Rcre
(The mingled paste his murder'd son had made,) 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAM5khgc2ZzY
Haul'd from beneath the violated shade, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAHPyvYRCBB5
And on the sacred pile the royal victim laid. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA4GxUG8UKzq
His right hand held his bloody falchion bare, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAxYKo6Rln9B
His left he twisted in his hoary hair; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAZqVl5694PP
Then, with a speeding thrust, his heart he found: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAEOTtSdKFVB
The lukewarm blood came rushing thro' the wound, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAU5WAHYDG3M
And sanguine streams distain'd the sacred ground. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANALQFL8NUcf4
Thus Priam fell, and shar'd one common fate 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAr8BazpkZd4
With Troy in ashes, and his ruin'd state: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANADt27qVfaEC
He, who the scepter of all Asia sway'd, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAbbgYbGNioB
Whom monarchs like domestic slaves obey'd. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA826a4R46oj
On the bleak shore now lies th' abandon'd king, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAnnphEb5wzN
A headless carcass, and a nameless thing. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAflFysBPZSV
"Then, not before, I felt my cruddled blood 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAdduw1mwgAt
Congeal with fear, my hair with horror stood: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAIeL1iaVp9W
My father's image fill'd my pious mind, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAyei3NoXjyY
Lest equal years might equal fortune find. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA0LkE09gc25
Again I thought on my forsaken wife, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAtqNhse5h6T
And trembled for my son's abandon'd life. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAZvdV43bTEO
I look'd about, but found myself alone, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAS0bAodsyJI
Deserted at my need! My friends were gone. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAp3LJJGIqN1
Some spent with toil, some with despair oppress'd, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA6RYV8QsMTP
Leap'd headlong from the heights; the flames consum'd the rest. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANALyshpM1jJO
Thus, wand'ring in my way, without a guide, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAoPPp3Uid9E
The graceless Helen in the porch I spied 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAA23IKTJauT
Of Vesta's temple; there she lurk'd alone; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAk1oOdzGfMT
Muffled she sate, and, what she could, unknown: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAVHVv4yFKA2
But, by the flames that cast their blaze around, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAGuZTPbDBxU
That common bane of Greece and Troy I found. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA6E8Ge7TlGo
For Ilium burnt, she dreads the Trojan sword; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAwufIrSMIpl
More dreads the vengeance of her injur'd lord; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAYPMxZu06LP
Ev'n by those gods who refug'd her abhorr'd. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAAhf37E7Gy9
Trembling with rage, the strumpet I regard, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAKX9oijKueb
Resolv'd to give her guilt the due reward: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAJxAjtQbptY
'Shall she triumphant sail before the wind, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAbruvwuH94K
And leave in flames unhappy Troy behind? 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA79jYBvVUx7
Shall she her kingdom and her friends review, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAiGBLHlE2qX
In state attended with a captive crew, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAfRqEBclvNT
While unreveng'd the good old Priam falls, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANANuWg4l6Vpo
And Grecian fires consume the Trojan walls? 1104Please respect copyright.PENANADa0hM9h7jk
For this the Phrygian fields and Xanthian flood 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAfoXCt48vYQ
Were swell'd with bodies, and were drunk with blood? 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA5xZOIRfLJR
'T is true, a soldier can small honor gain, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAurAgbSVZPD
And boast no conquest, from a woman slain: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAmmNcgAW9T2
Yet shall the fact not pass without applause, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA1VTDzE2nPM
Of vengeance taken in so just a cause; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA2zseZqldX1
The punish'd crime shall set my soul at ease, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANABUwYf6iv3U
And murm'ring manes of my friends appease.' 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAnkbkmCKG3n
Thus while I rave, a gleam of pleasing light 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAmIsSdeoj4Z
Spread o'er the place; and, shining heav'nly bright, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANADjBqgEGYwg
My mother stood reveal'd before my sight 1104Please respect copyright.PENANARY4FdmLOkd
Never so radiant did her eyes appear; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAR4RGB1Eyw7
Not her own star confess'd a light so clear: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA17jiiJ3aUH
Great in her charms, as when on gods above 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA57wRmvZSbK
She looks, and breathes herself into their love. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAifiOCB3WvA
She held my hand, the destin'd blow to break; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA6IhyPl0PEV
Then from her rosy lips began to speak: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAWQlWKB3S1M
'My son, from whence this madness, this neglect 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA4Ihc82XSzl
Of my commands, and those whom I protect? 1104Please respect copyright.PENANARd3jPH9IR9
Why this unmanly rage? Recall to mind 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAPUwrvR6lOR
Whom you forsake, what pledges leave behind. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAifzRyHtvRW
Look if your helpless father yet survive, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANANWUjxnmNP9
Or if Ascanius or Creusa live. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAH0l7gzOcjN
Around your house the greedy Grecians err; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAOlQLUJj2sI
And these had perish'd in the nightly war, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAyN1epYTVVp
But for my presence and protecting care. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAanhp40bve6
Not Helen's face, nor Paris, was in fault; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAACRol6PIUH
But by the gods was this destruction brought. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAxaaqqhWb2G
Now cast your eyes around, while I dissolve 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAokyDIWsv0t
The mists and films that mortal eyes involve, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAXQfFcajRNb
Purge from your sight the dross, and make you see 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA6OKw8oBgsr
The shape of each avenging deity. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA1kscVP0x50
Enlighten'd thus, my just commands fulfil, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAu1aDqBsCzk
Nor fear obedience to your mother's will. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA0qCSVCEowV
Where yon disorder'd heap of ruin lies, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAeoUfjX2B9y
Stones rent from stones; where clouds of dust arise- 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAkhtOVzLdOL
Amid that smother Neptune holds his place, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA5WhxFVbbon
Below the wall's foundation drives his mace, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAeWfiKQBQny
And heaves the building from the solid base. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAYIXBEn07s3
Look where, in arms, imperial Juno stands 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAHwGuBe8eGl
Full in the Scaean gate, with loud commands, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAWelFaAKZHS
Urging on shore the tardy Grecian bands. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAQAitD4LbN3
See! Pallas, of her snaky buckler proud, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAGeIpMl4xN6
Bestrides the tow'r, refulgent thro' the cloud: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAZG6Rth0OjB
See! Jove new courage to the foe supplies, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAB8aBbb0UgA
And arms against the town the partial deities. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAjzupMiI0XV
Haste hence, my son; this fruitless labor end: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAgIl4Sni6RM
Haste, where your trembling spouse and sire attend: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAHfRwGM5j2B
Haste; and a mother's care your passage shall befriend.' 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA6D0AfTQMq0
She said, and swiftly vanish'd from my sight, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANApOMVHLk7hS
Obscure in clouds and gloomy shades of night. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAvI0j8s5COv
I look'd, I listen'd; dreadful sounds I hear; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAr1RaviwPeL
And the dire forms of hostile gods appear. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAIeSCJnCsm3
Troy sunk in flames I saw (nor could prevent), 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAFKTFSGCXus
And Ilium from its old foundations rent; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAUT9f59sAx0
Rent like a mountain ash, which dar'd the winds, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAocmIDRzPWh
And stood the sturdy strokes of lab'ring hinds. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANACNZOTsMsol
About the roots the cruel ax resounds; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA1kjwvIT8ro
The stumps are pierc'd with oft-repeated wounds: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAtYe7rolpGl
The war is felt on high; the nodding crown 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAqIe7VXysRr
Now threats a fall, and throws the leafy honors down. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAEkzyEVmweo
To their united force it yields, tho' late, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAdQKq5H442x
And mourns with mortal groans th' approaching fate: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAesO1zzaOW1
The roots no more their upper load sustain; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAFkzqqXsoaX
But down she falls, and spreads a ruin thro' the plain. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAukWw6cocPA
"Descending thence, I scape thro' foes and fire: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA9tUh6Aj4Vr
Before the goddess, foes and flames retire. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAZXdpooDwR2
Arriv'd at home, he, for whose only sake, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAVhr0JG5Eos
Or most for his, such toils I undertake, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAl3ufsJsyHK
The good Anchises, whom, by timely flight, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAl0vWylzvji
I purpos'd to secure on Ida's height, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAXajhgAuCZ1
Refus'd the journey, resolute to die 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAI2wrZ1YfA1
And add his fun'rals to the fate of Troy, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAnzeCo7gXiF
Rather than exile and old age sustain. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANATQtz7VCGsQ
'Go you, whose blood runs warm in ev'ry vein. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAISjp67UHwB
Had Heav'n decreed that I should life enjoy, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANARzsfUtsphN
Heav'n had decreed to save unhappy Troy. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA1mOfXigbSW
'T is, sure, enough, if not too much, for one, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAA3b7fBHkur
Twice to have seen our Ilium overthrown. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAkj1UC0qrq4
Make haste to save the poor remaining crew, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAnNMD5rMnBz
And give this useless corpse a long adieu. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAdxGuIUL0VP
These weak old hands suffice to stop my breath; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANADbySvgbri1
At least the pitying foes will aid my death, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA72XnSdyXj7
To take my spoils, and leave my body bare: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAV4poh3Ta4b
As for my sepulcher, let Heav'n take care. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANANHXuLMEADI
'T is long since I, for my celestial wife 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA933LxfeP02
Loath'd by the gods, have dragg'd a ling'ring life; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAF0fxcZAcwj
Since ev'ry hour and moment I expire, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAqVLAKuNLlh
Blasted from heav'n by Jove's avenging fire.' 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAjpcMOblBG8
This oft repeated, he stood fix'd to die: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAyKFH1S6Pyl
Myself, my wife, my son, my family, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAdNs923H3XZ
Intreat, pray, beg, and raise a doleful cry- 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAodnfmRyIuQ
'What, will he still persist, on death resolve, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAe1TPi6HFZq
And in his ruin all his house involve!' 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAEh8Qypgewt
He still persists his reasons to maintain; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA7DsAwnPf12
Our pray'rs, our tears, our loud laments, are vain. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAnl0o3iMhEX
"Urg'd by despair, again I go to try 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA0i0xPnKfwf
The fate of arms, resolv'd in fight to die: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA8wT71TM9AK
'What hope remains, but what my death must give? 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA5UCQOSnSfA
Can I, without so dear a father, live? 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAKVYc59GulF
You term it prudence, what I baseness call: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAiKqDlKjr4Z
Could such a word from such a parent fall? 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAEISe9qyWbC
If Fortune please, and so the gods ordain, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAq4sNalFOe0
That nothing should of ruin'd Troy remain, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA8sNyAO9EYg
And you conspire with Fortune to be slain, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAU7DJQ2co5R
The way to death is wide, th' approaches near: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA3gvSS9eysi
For soon relentless Pyrrhus will appear, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAM9MDGEg4N0
Reeking with Priam's blood- the wretch who slew 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAi9PquEaWQB
The son (inhuman) in the father's view, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAdZlzqDDjwM
And then the sire himself to the dire altar drew. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAvyNeMOUWP1
O goddess mother, give me back to Fate; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAkzD4rh0kSY
Your gift was undesir'd, and came too late! 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA7hgviETpTn
Did you, for this, unhappy me convey 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAR554x4v65e
Thro' foes and fires, to see my house a prey? 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAlvmouMOmrP
Shall I my father, wife, and son behold, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAD2GLqxu3tN
Welt'ring in blood, each other's arms infold? 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAojm5xOwfCR
Haste! gird my sword, tho' spent and overcome: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAmCWIB8KLpv
'T is the last summons to receive our doom. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAA1McfvsB9B
I hear thee, Fate; and I obey thy call! 1104Please respect copyright.PENANApQHy1a8vhw
Not unreveng'd the foe shall see my fall. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAW0DWooO5XZ
Restore me to the yet unfinish'd fight: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAWP1vZBrgdm
My death is wanting to conclude the night.' 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAxQF0UH0wUI
Arm'd once again, my glitt'ring sword I wield, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAwvvCJudN6A
While th' other hand sustains my weighty shield, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA0BLm9xCpaX
And forth I rush to seek th' abandon'd field. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAU3gwEo1TSf
I went; but sad Creusa stopp'd my way, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA3JzhilXGbb
And cross the threshold in my passage lay, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAkKIHfFtH88
Embrac'd my knees, and, when I would have gone, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANASHTxH6Luhs
Shew'd me my feeble sire and tender son: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAmt1PnEzNSA
'If death be your design, at least,' said she, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA71oBlMn1fG
'Take us along to share your destiny. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAcXWVenvhAI
If any farther hopes in arms remain, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANALZycXrXtGK
This place, these pledges of your love, maintain. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANARhngIQyaCH
To whom do you expose your father's life, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAHzpuruCRLp
Your son's, and mine, your now forgotten wife!' 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA6HsuTTe2fQ
While thus she fills the house with clam'rous cries, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAqIibE1i6LW
Our hearing is diverted by our eyes: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAhS5x5tFXUJ
For, while I held my son, in the short space 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAY4Nc0qSquQ
Betwixt our kisses and our last embrace; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAJ0NfZjEbI6
Strange to relate, from young Iulus' head 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAOewc3uZT3P
A lambent flame arose, which gently spread 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAF6vszrobnq
Around his brows, and on his temples fed. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAtIPpSPUVfh
Amaz'd, with running water we prepare 1104Please respect copyright.PENANABfUKR6oPXK
To quench the sacred fire, and slake his hair; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAbbCDrYP7Da
But old Anchises, vers'd in omens, rear'd 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAwwUiXkAEJ0
His hands to heav'n, and this request preferr'd: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANABdgfr0vwgZ
'If any vows, almighty Jove, can bend 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAQfsbO9jCHi
Thy will; if piety can pray'rs commend, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAgWInAZfhDT
Confirm the glad presage which thou art pleas'd to send.' 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAUmJm7UIKeV
Scarce had he said, when, on our left, we hear 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAa8wMr03AK9
A peal of rattling thunder roll in air: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA0jiQu1mM48
There shot a streaming lamp along the sky, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAX1nlsAFMOR
Which on the winged lightning seem'd to fly; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAt9s5rYEiys
From o'er the roof the blaze began to move, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAMNr915IX6B
And, trailing, vanish'd in th' Idaean grove. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAz9cMG33GTv
It swept a path in heav'n, and shone a guide, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAEfpWEuvPpL
Then in a steaming stench of sulphur died. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAFkb7rIxDvN
"The good old man with suppliant hands implor'd 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAcx2CdQ21cY
The gods' protection, and their star ador'd. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAOGd8DsY1sA
'Now, now,' said he, 'my son, no more delay! 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAXeDIHAVr0z
I yield, I follow where Heav'n shews the way. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAxe3GAw9U2Y
Keep, O my country gods, our dwelling place, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAniBMzerxf3
And guard this relic of the Trojan race, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAsQAmjJELMe
This tender child! These omens are your own, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANASEfSAaOrkx
And you can yet restore the ruin'd town. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA3rfz6jTK0W
At least accomplish what your signs foreshow: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAZiDTr9oNLs
I stand resign'd, and am prepar'd to go.' 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA78UeDRfjMV
"He said. The crackling flames appear on high. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAlLM0zlFpvL
And driving sparkles dance along the sky. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA6IVOlDUp5c
With Vulcan's rage the rising winds conspire, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAAGvU18tcVS
And near our palace roll the flood of fire. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANASBDcM96Wst
'Haste, my dear father, ('t is no time to wait,) 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAchVsBtqnG0
And load my shoulders with a willing freight. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAtEzUtIkbux
Whate'er befalls, your life shall be my care; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA3iVzJf9rAc
One death, or one deliv'rance, we will share. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAnjvS0suKCH
My hand shall lead our little son; and you, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA2KHuDB9ndc
My faithful consort, shall our steps pursue. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA110Knx18RZ
Next, you, my servants, heed my strict commands: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAtOQWiFIpDC
Without the walls a ruin'd temple stands, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAVMRZ1xhzDo
To Ceres hallow'd once; a cypress nigh 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAyFjDPM3CBU
Shoots up her venerable head on high, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAmcQrb7wJmY
By long religion kept; there bend your feet, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANASMpv4Cjxcc
And in divided parties let us meet. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANApJJaL5keFe
Our country gods, the relics, and the bands, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAaPQXWYA724
Hold you, my father, in your guiltless hands: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA0kkP14qxZ0
In me 't is impious holy things to bear, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAHRXQtjuR4K
Red as I am with slaughter, new from war, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAKVBgU9s4nn
Till in some living stream I cleanse the guilt 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA39v0LcqLer
Of dire debate, and blood in battle spilt.' 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA3FpUu4PDV6
Thus, ord'ring all that prudence could provide, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAiG9eu7hw8r
I clothe my shoulders with a lion's hide 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA3eROLTd1Ua
And yellow spoils; then, on my bending back, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAZlc6EbUqR6
The welcome load of my dear father take; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAL9nNBjPjEO
While on my better hand Ascanius hung, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAGCH0m1xodD
And with unequal paces tripp'd along. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAJ2gdrnlzdX
Creusa kept behind; by choice we stray 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAqGSx0l5Dau
Thro' ev'ry dark and ev'ry devious way. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAaTDP8kcHWJ
I, who so bold and dauntless, just before, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAFjwAk2BDrE
The Grecian darts and shock of lances bore, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANADwiqsAMySU
At ev'ry shadow now am seiz'd with fear, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANArgQemMWPig
Not for myself, but for the charge I bear; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAD9QHv2flz2
Till, near the ruin'd gate arriv'd at last, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA4FIKjKfk9T
Secure, and deeming all the danger past, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAXJ3cHd3wyV
A frightful noise of trampling feet we hear. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAcgPiahi9yy
My father, looking thro' the shades, with fear, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAjbdHmArjXF
Cried out: 'Haste, haste, my son, the foes are nigh; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAxAJHoZi4jK
Their swords and shining armor I descry.' 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAEFtjjVxstp
Some hostile god, for some unknown offense, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAxoCwZD00Uw
Had sure bereft my mind of better sense; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAMEdQWEJu8O
For, while thro' winding ways I took my flight, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAO24VW0pOKA
And sought the shelter of the gloomy night, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAset5JvMlYv
Alas! I lost Creusa: hard to tell 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAI6ynu4KKOe
If by her fatal destiny she fell, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA4dTiOyIo3d
Or weary sate, or wander'd with affright; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANANHQXRiLKfD
But she was lost for ever to my sight. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAsu8g27SxxH
I knew not, or reflected, till I meet 1104Please respect copyright.PENANABWrs5FhN1J
My friends, at Ceres' now deserted seat. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAsSnPCzE4q8
We met: not one was wanting; only she 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAw8h2GkzhNz
Deceiv'd her friends, her son, and wretched me. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAlJ7Bnzw6Ig
"What mad expressions did my tongue refuse! 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAZUd4l33dCN
Whom did I not, of gods or men, accuse! 1104Please respect copyright.PENANANuMr59Yzpp
This was the fatal blow, that pain'd me more 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAspTtYiivD1
Than all I felt from ruin'd Troy before. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAqZdNpwjA85
Stung with my loss, and raving with despair, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAE4RmSjoDgH
Abandoning my now forgotten care, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANATN2f3vhVAt
Of counsel, comfort, and of hope bereft, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAH76cTBRKAF
My sire, my son, my country gods I left. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAzy98m9PZzz
In shining armor once again I sheathe 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAfGT7sbdkDi
My limbs, not feeling wounds, nor fearing death. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAQAcvxChnDE
Then headlong to the burning walls I run, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA4yi0KEO0aM
And seek the danger I was forc'd to shun. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAy1ZCFrApz4
I tread my former tracks; thro' night explore 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAlizWV1wdg7
Each passage, ev'ry street I cross'd before. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAEIBq6ypJGQ
All things were full of horror and affright, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAY4czEXQNnF
And dreadful ev'n the silence of the night. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAkMPlzSgnJv
Then to my father's house I make repair, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA2UratfGXsx
With some small glimpse of hope to find her there. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANANIKlabS6nT
Instead of her, the cruel Greeks I met; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAqSnxxVPXGG
The house was fill'd with foes, with flames beset. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAIx32dC33XJ
Driv'n on the wings of winds, whole sheets of fire, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAVcwJxh13yf
Thro' air transported, to the roofs aspire. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANANZ99Q7oBE2
From thence to Priam's palace I resort, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAZ4G9d8J7ui
And search the citadel and desart court. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAuSfHncUFPu
Then, unobserv'd, I pass by Juno's church: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAUHAk67yPhH
A guard of Grecians had possess'd the porch; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANARTzQasOL4h
There Phoenix and Ulysses watch prey, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAbtTWBlPyNE
And thither all the wealth of Troy convey: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA2Y5ZfSegOF
The spoils which they from ransack'd houses brought, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAet7NOYsz6N
And golden bowls from burning altars caught, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAHyfkVmhsDr
The tables of the gods, the purple vests, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA2ulsc40c7T
The people's treasure, and the pomp of priests. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA3agFqskbfF
A rank of wretched youths, with pinion'd hands, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAlNxSDKtuvu
And captive matrons, in long order stands. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAyyVadmO3pZ
Then, with ungovern'd madness, I proclaim, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAzWqq7urcYi
Thro' all the silent street, Creusa's name: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAWloOZsSWPB
Creusa still I call; at length she hears, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA8jSOMhE74y
And sudden thro' the shades of night appears- 1104Please respect copyright.PENANALqtZVsrr3G
Appears, no more Creusa, nor my wife, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAKeIoKLuJ2n
But a pale specter, larger than the life. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAH0ziw5B03F
Aghast, astonish'd, and struck dumb with fear, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAtayZ5oE9tK
I stood; like bristles rose my stiffen'd hair. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA2N6pjE4F3B
Then thus the ghost began to soothe my grief 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA5IlY3HmKUv
'Nor tears, nor cries, can give the dead relief. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAcGrij5DKez
Desist, my much-lov'd lord,'t indulge your pain; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAz282TY1U5G
You bear no more than what the gods ordain. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAUbociAXq0u
My fates permit me not from hence to fly; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAkEJ1C62pf8
Nor he, the great controller of the sky. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA2DxoIcejyk
Long wand'ring ways for you the pow'rs decree; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA8ZK4WCBwJQ
On land hard labors, and a length of sea. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAwUop7ub9aH
Then, after many painful years are past, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANASN70pCA5HF
On Latium's happy shore you shall be cast, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAu99o2ooeaB
Where gentle Tiber from his bed beholds 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA3nVXLBQQ4M
The flow'ry meadows, and the feeding folds. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAU2anNw1rOk
There end your toils; and there your fates provide 1104Please respect copyright.PENANApJp04Hjikl
A quiet kingdom, and a royal bride: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAOJy5abDCT1
There fortune shall the Trojan line restore, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAvscpsXRpIa
And you for lost Creusa weep no more. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAzWu9r8i9Ug
Fear not that I shall watch, with servile shame, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA0Twc5Gh9NM
Th' imperious looks of some proud Grecian dame; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA1Mz1JTrTPp
Or, stooping to the victor's lust, disgrace 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAj6LxffhIZx
My goddess mother, or my royal race. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAs7ZPi0iLYj
And now, farewell! The parent of the gods 1104Please respect copyright.PENANABUKduMmKCw
Restrains my fleeting soul in her abodes: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANADYnrXwTbQ8
I trust our common issue to your care.' 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAugoEdnqWaY
She said, and gliding pass'd unseen in air. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAR31ffutnQO
I strove to speak: but horror tied my tongue; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA0EJIl7DI3C
And thrice about her neck my arms I flung, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAH3lgw8Kim5
And, thrice deceiv'd, on vain embraces hung. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAsIjJyhGVHl
Light as an empty dream at break of day, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAiHDAjwTD4O
Or as a blast of wind, she rush'd away. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAI13fZmJD4V
"Thus having pass'd the night in fruitless pain, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAv4dQNHjawv
I to my longing friends return again, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAzS3WQd3psU
Amaz'd th' augmented number to behold, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAJaxletxl6I
Of men and matrons mix'd, of young and old; 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAeul4LtIutf
A wretched exil'd crew together brought, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAAXUvTzfWJR
With arms appointed, and with treasure fraught, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAUUnVlicVim
Resolv'd, and willing, under my command, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAE1ks0mAIYO
To run all hazards both of sea and land. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA8fZGIm4aJe
The Morn began, from Ida, to display 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAzjilXPdyyc
Her rosy cheeks; and Phosphor led the day: 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAu5ZSwVHmJ9
Before the gates the Grecians took their post, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAY5SLCAckFn
And all pretense of late relief was lost. 1104Please respect copyright.PENANA0nLmqYC6BQ
I yield to Fate, unwillingly retire, 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAwjILa5pGqu
And, loaded, up the hill convey my sire." 1104Please respect copyright.PENANAA5IRtmneVE
