Meantime the Trojan cuts his wat'ry way, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAztC4abLIix
Fix'd on his voyage, thro' the curling sea; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAKlxrIQoPTq
Then, casting back his eyes, with dire amaze, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAbJBfEZc2ui
Sees on the Punic shore the mounting blaze. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAp3PjE8n8v7
The cause unknown; yet his presaging mind 871Please respect copyright.PENANAgsGPGil7XP
The fate of Dido from the fire divin'd; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAUmnItddJqX
He knew the stormy souls of womankind, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAJfXAmRBKqQ
What secret springs their eager passions move, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAvPu9VXIpDd
How capable of death for injur'd love. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAqQL8ucyufE
Dire auguries from hence the Trojans draw; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAomBTIoS1Pu
Till neither fires nor shining shores they saw. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAPsYHC4ptv1
Now seas and skies their prospect only bound; 871Please respect copyright.PENANA0DNwRMS3qW
An empty space above, a floating field around. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAmNLCcoL64r
But soon the heav'ns with shadows were o'erspread; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAMxM3Nl7YL8
A swelling cloud hung hov'ring o'er their head: 871Please respect copyright.PENANABnePfQBGLN
Livid it look'd, the threat'ning of a storm: 871Please respect copyright.PENANA88KgnyTSfH
Then night and horror ocean's face deform. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAOgdMqWBH7L
The pilot, Palinurus, cried aloud: 871Please respect copyright.PENANArXXmrV14xa
"What gusts of weather from that gath'ring cloud 871Please respect copyright.PENANAfIbbVjZkds
My thoughts presage! Ere yet the tempest roars, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA3v3iJA2qSr
Stand to your tackle, mates, and stretch your oars; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAkdtFrjahqY
Contract your swelling sails, and luff to wind." 871Please respect copyright.PENANAzcnUZE4Dpj
The frighted crew perform the task assign'd. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAg4R80muIrv
Then, to his fearless chief: "Not Heav'n," said he, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA4nzungzbVF
"Tho' Jove himself should promise Italy, 871Please respect copyright.PENANATxb2VlLqMl
Can stem the torrent of this raging sea. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAamiu1NrXya
Mark how the shifting winds from west arise, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAzWsaQeUAqU
And what collected night involves the skies! 871Please respect copyright.PENANAL2opwXhlhk
Nor can our shaken vessels live at sea, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAZw98zGkAgr
Much less against the tempest force their way. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA6ZXBOWN16v
'T is fate diverts our course, and fate we must obey. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAf4mvAWugGF
Not far from hence, if I observ'd aright 871Please respect copyright.PENANABlFnMkrNp3
The southing of the stars, and polar light, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAikujh7sMl2
Sicilia lies, whose hospitable shores 871Please respect copyright.PENANAhLWeIgT8cR
In safety we may reach with struggling oars." 871Please respect copyright.PENANAOeTvX5CApy
Aeneas then replied: "Too sure I find 871Please respect copyright.PENANASBuYp8IJph
We strive in vain against the seas and wind: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAMngJ57YGOn
Now shift your sails; what place can please me more 871Please respect copyright.PENANA5G2wW4rxuM
Than what you promise, the Sicilian shore, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAr9tN0JM8W5
Whose hallow'd earth Anchises' bones contains, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAMz0pTW7LsC
And where a prince of Trojan lineage reigns?" 871Please respect copyright.PENANAW4inj5yoOU
The course resolv'd, before the western wind 871Please respect copyright.PENANAYg8dgxXlTL
They scud amain, and make the port assign'd. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAvMd1LDWusW
Meantime Acestes, from a lofty stand, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAPPKY8J80LU
Beheld the fleet descending on the land; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAAYMGFsrfv6
And, not unmindful of his ancient race, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA9Jp3ZJ5OKk
Down from the cliff he ran with eager pace, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAsl2R9D3Z5G
And held the hero in a strict embrace. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAybPvLIAvAC
Of a rough Libyan bear the spoils he wore, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAzAeym3IGcc
And either hand a pointed jav'lin bore. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA7JUkzis8Lm
His mother was a dame of Dardan blood; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAO45sgNjQ9J
His sire Crinisus, a Sicilian flood. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA1KQbrJDEdA
He welcomes his returning friends ashore 871Please respect copyright.PENANAyJreKxUtfw
With plenteous country cates and homely store. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAKUsuAl4cbr
Now, when the following morn had chas'd away 871Please respect copyright.PENANAuyEwGxSLYH
The flying stars, and light restor'd the day, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAdAoea59Ab2
Aeneas call'd the Trojan troops around, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAdq4QwFezOq
And thus bespoke them from a rising ground: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAVTDxj6QpNE
"Offspring of heav'n, divine Dardanian race! 871Please respect copyright.PENANAiduD9u3sle
The sun, revolving thro' th' ethereal space, 871Please respect copyright.PENANABDsnpadYfm
The shining circle of the year has fill'd, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAONoqyn6qEK
Since first this isle my father's ashes held: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAhtmTLoeXKX
And now the rising day renews the year; 871Please respect copyright.PENANA4zZLi81aa3
A day for ever sad, for ever dear. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAcixn6UO7ER
This would I celebrate with annual games, 871Please respect copyright.PENANApb0ms40ZGi
With gifts on altars pil'd, and holy flames, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAChrtJaONOE
Tho' banish'd to Gaetulia's barren sands, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAIjHuo4EAvG
Caught on the Grecian seas, or hostile lands: 871Please respect copyright.PENANABrt5Vqme3N
But since this happy storm our fleet has driv'n 871Please respect copyright.PENANAg5XQBbicak
(Not, as I deem, without the will of Heav'n) 871Please respect copyright.PENANAdKjnFfSHaj
Upon these friendly shores and flow'ry plains, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAmYn5zjyPqK
Which hide Anchises and his blest remains, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAPnM6SQJ2HV
Let us with joy perform his honors due, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAfoJf5URqqZ
And pray for prosp'rous winds, our voyage to renew; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAligLQk6oek
Pray, that in towns and temples of our own, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAXL5VZPJyS7
The name of great Anchises may be known, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAqmEgrhgM52
And yearly games may spread the gods' renown. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAbA4obLjqVz
Our sports Acestes, of the Trojan race, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAMarBGvJFpP
With royal gifts ordain'd, is pleas'd to grace: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAWv6kUjca76
Two steers on ev'ry ship the king bestows; 871Please respect copyright.PENANApP60SwLeCE
His gods and ours shall share your equal vows. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAI68paEzo3Z
Besides, if, nine days hence, the rosy morn 871Please respect copyright.PENANA8JKdYj3Oiq
Shall with unclouded light the skies adorn, 871Please respect copyright.PENANARmFfxqzrGx
That day with solemn sports I mean to grace: 871Please respect copyright.PENANANTRKyRXDxH
Light galleys on the seas shall run a wat'ry race; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAJYJa05R7I1
Some shall in swiftness for the goal contend, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAYV3seJ48Xy
And others try the twanging bow to bend; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAzwgczqbcOQ
The strong, with iron gauntlets arm'd, shall stand 871Please respect copyright.PENANAya9NxWZexM
Oppos'd in combat on the yellow sand. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA8Qol5U95S1
Let all be present at the games prepar'd, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAkk1r30yp7g
And joyful victors wait the just reward. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA1z4iSZXw36
But now assist the rites, with garlands crown'd." 871Please respect copyright.PENANAb4KFgwYURC
He said, and first his brows with myrtle bound. 871Please respect copyright.PENANABQ1ZFJPgRW
Then Helymus, by his example led, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAlGw2o2bLZR
And old Acestes, each adorn'd his head; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAn1wQiYHcQC
Thus young Ascanius, with a sprightly grace, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAppxH7qcqs0
His temples tied, and all the Trojan race. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAPY4z7Jf83g
Aeneas then advanc'd amidst the train, 871Please respect copyright.PENANABJ7cSerSzZ
By thousands follow'd thro' the flow'ry plain, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAmKFV9T7PeZ
To great Anchises' tomb; which when he found, 871Please respect copyright.PENANACxJ5sJ89C5
He pour'd to Bacchus, on the hallow'd ground, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAk6ZjGQcqsQ
Two bowls of sparkling wine, of milk two more, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAFvo6JJby65
And two (from offer'd bulls) of purple gore, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAggVwqUflmy
With roses then the sepulcher he strow'd 871Please respect copyright.PENANAhdOzUvxJPw
And thus his father's ghost bespoke aloud: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAtoegmTOVqV
"Hail, O ye holy manes! hail again, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAdp1cjPMeWH
Paternal ashes, now review'd in vain! 871Please respect copyright.PENANAypmaNAQTnK
The gods permitted not, that you, with me, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAUYM5kDHXag
Should reach the promis'd shores of Italy, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAKHmVmfW7u7
Or Tiber's flood, what flood soe'er it be." 871Please respect copyright.PENANAG7msrcfhZg
Scarce had he finish'd, when, with speckled pride, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA442SYMtdj1
A serpent from the tomb began to glide; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAueBMmi7mRp
His hugy bulk on sev'n high volumes roll'd; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAeFgoX2Aq6M
Blue was his breadth of back, but streak'd with scaly gold: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAmMKspXPRO1
Thus riding on his curls, he seem'd to pass 871Please respect copyright.PENANATT0vPsFBsS
A rolling fire along, and singe the grass. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAqtGGJF0AlQ
More various colors thro' his body run, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAqJS7yMT6a0
Than Iris when her bow imbibes the sun. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAqbY8uFxWl4
Betwixt the rising altars, and around, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAVgoqQ5hl8Q
The sacred monster shot along the ground; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAYA1UP9IzUO
With harmless play amidst the bowls he pass'd, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAGD9RT9Dgv1
And with his lolling tongue assay'd the taste: 871Please respect copyright.PENANA3gGQ0enYj8
Thus fed with holy food, the wondrous guest 871Please respect copyright.PENANAad5YthBC7H
Within the hollow tomb retir'd to rest. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAVnc6VM24SH
The pious prince, surpris'd at what he view'd, 871Please respect copyright.PENANANXhUHUnA2D
The fun'ral honors with more zeal renew'd, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAxqQhKTDwdU
Doubtful if this place's genius were, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAbzdjklTvAF
Or guardian of his father's sepulcher. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAQQapsTQgtF
Five sheep, according to the rites, he slew; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAg38W9s1QcY
As many swine, and steers of sable hue; 871Please respect copyright.PENANABlo4KJ4Ltr
New gen'rous wine he from the goblets pour'd. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAP9uDIiLbRy
And call'd his father's ghost, from hell restor'd. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA8b4BOUGAvK
The glad attendants in long order come, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAfkYWpugiPh
Off'ring their gifts at great Anchises' tomb: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAT7FIcIOXpz
Some add more oxen: some divide the spoil; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAQ8pMJ7z8cQ
Some place the chargers on the grassy soil; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAw2oYAbH9Dv
Some blow the fires, and off entrails broil. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAJDGvOxItx4
Now came the day desir'd. The skies were bright 871Please respect copyright.PENANAg7Jwel1zkV
With rosy luster of the rising light: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAHlmUBynpOL
The bord'ring people, rous'd by sounding fame 871Please respect copyright.PENANA8Mpaj39TGG
Of Trojan feasts and great Acestes' name, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAuQXvtrlP6R
The crowded shore with acclamations fill, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAeIVIg0f8cf
Part to behold, and part to prove their skill. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAoXJOKV2CDg
And first the gifts in public view they place, 871Please respect copyright.PENANASvebtoGmpI
Green laurel wreaths, and palm, the victors' grace: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAOMK7406xTq
Within the circle, arms and tripods lie, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAFDooklr47l
Ingots of gold and silver, heap'd on high, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAFRfWEZYR8d
And vests embroider'd, of the Tyrian dye. 871Please respect copyright.PENANASlY1GZ1cN0
The trumpet's clangor then the feast proclaims, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAMtwZCiQaj2
And all prepare for their appointed games. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAth0YGkLqwf
Four galleys first, which equal rowers bear, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAAmLWGuCVYa
Advancing, in the wat'ry lists appear. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAQpeplFRM7t
The speedy Dolphin, that outstrips the wind, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAxniPaK10a0
Bore Mnestheus, author of the Memmian kind: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAn9cjCmuUCK
Gyas the vast Chimaera's bulk commands, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAZfL8TY0nut
Which rising, like a tow'ring city stands; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAjis48vSdMt
Three Trojans tug at ev'ry lab'ring oar; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAf6dNFtWSmL
Three banks in three degrees the sailors bore; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAOCizHDPcVl
Beneath their sturdy strokes the billows roar. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAJWIHtoGyCR
Sergesthus, who began the Sergian race, 871Please respect copyright.PENANApwDzWx6SEf
In the great Centaur took the leading place; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAddcHOmTpua
Cloanthus on the sea-green Scylla stood, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAZyGexva0mT
From whom Cluentius draws his Trojan blood. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAYyNKbI89kB
Far in the sea, against the foaming shore, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAaFwD8skiqb
There stands a rock: the raging billows roar 871Please respect copyright.PENANA9Mw3KjRUV7
Above his head in storms; but, when 't is clear, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAaYBJYDDtPN
Uncurl their ridgy backs, and at his foot appear. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAw1ZgbwSk5l
In peace below the gentle waters run; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAxlHSrEatSL
The cormorants above lie basking in the sun. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAL0RLwQQW14
On this the hero fix'd an oak in sight, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAUc8yk4htDt
The mark to guide the mariners aright. 871Please respect copyright.PENANApcCUpbGFsT
To bear with this, the seamen stretch their oars; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAgigp2JjdcY
Then round the rock they steer, and seek the former shores. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA06dJlsiDmq
The lots decide their place. Above the rest, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAzA4iahF4y9
Each leader shining in his Tyrian vest; 871Please respect copyright.PENANA6kkQ8E0cIR
The common crew with wreaths of poplar boughs 871Please respect copyright.PENANA1w3dmHyBw7
Their temples crown, and shade their sweaty brows: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAoHoc0YoL23
Besmear'd with oil, their naked shoulders shine. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA0fxSOLLfqI
All take their seats, and wait the sounding sign: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAfodiu2OS3l
They gripe their oars; and ev'ry panting breast 871Please respect copyright.PENANA5D7br9F41s
Is rais'd by turns with hope, by turns with fear depress'd. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAw92igEsjhK
The clangor of the trumpet gives the sign; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAQ7okoYUGV1
At once they start, advancing in a line: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAxhHVZDw4lG
With shouts the sailors rend the starry skies; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAZ0gOjEpKZ2
Lash'd with their oars, the smoky billows rise; 871Please respect copyright.PENANApnFVVzLZmM
Sparkles the briny main, and the vex'd ocean fries. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAWlAPiGkgrh
Exact in time, with equal strokes they row: 871Please respect copyright.PENANA1pBQpmkrGi
At once the brushing oars and brazen prow 871Please respect copyright.PENANAhUT794t9gS
Dash up the sandy waves, and ope the depths below. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA8zyvESBCwz
Not fiery coursers, in a chariot race, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAuvN2pksYA3
Invade the field with half so swift a pace; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAQqAnhznJ8S
Not the fierce driver with more fury lends 871Please respect copyright.PENANAHOZED1qkL9
The sounding lash, and, ere the stroke descends, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAwTKDLmdUrX
Low to the wheels his pliant body bends. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAolh0yNZNmD
The partial crowd their hopes and fears divide, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAtjPOzdHgp3
And aid with eager shouts the favor'd side. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAy5Q0YWtw6w
Cries, murmurs, clamors, with a mixing sound, 871Please respect copyright.PENANASZQ9FNAyLj
From woods to woods, from hills to hills rebound. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAAncMrjwadw
Amidst the loud applauses of the shore, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAu4YvJp3HZF
Gyas outstripp'd the rest, and sprung before: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAYlCS0Wcskp
Cloanthus, better mann'd, pursued him fast, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA19Es4CaF27
But his o'er-masted galley check'd his haste. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAZ1nhqPQdQB
The Centaur and the Dolphin brush the brine 871Please respect copyright.PENANA0wBwmmJzva
With equal oars, advancing in a line; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAHAJ32mBADU
And now the mighty Centaur seems to lead, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAL0uvpnxmI9
And now the speedy Dolphin gets ahead; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAA5q6DLsxEE
Now board to board the rival vessels row, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAWOA88cnTvb
The billows lave the skies, and ocean groans below. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA2GSjhR399b
They reach'd the mark. Proud Gyas and his train 871Please respect copyright.PENANAtzpn48MQso
In triumph rode, the victors of the main; 871Please respect copyright.PENANA2y1nNjf8E7
But, steering round, he charg'd his pilot stand 871Please respect copyright.PENANA7RIfE3mTZa
More close to shore, and skim along the sand- 871Please respect copyright.PENANAIeQhhRNjbk
"Let others bear to sea!" Menoetes heard; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAHylDGbqeLl
But secret shelves too cautiously he fear'd, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAcTWvpxuDkz
And, fearing, sought the deep; and still aloof he steer'd. 871Please respect copyright.PENANArYWQSjMdPw
With louder cries the captain call'd again: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAFyFVilGb8l
"Bear to the rocky shore, and shun the main." 871Please respect copyright.PENANA2FWX73tpeA
He spoke, and, speaking, at his stern he saw 871Please respect copyright.PENANAvGu3L1ZCvH
The bold Cloanthus near the shelvings draw. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA7kMp0wgHnU
Betwixt the mark and him the Scylla stood, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAWSribinbTl
And in a closer compass plow'd the flood. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA45kOkQb5zf
He pass'd the mark; and, wheeling, got before: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAgBsSbOuDOo
Gyas blasphem'd the gods, devoutly swore, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAs6MXo4NXde
Cried out for anger, and his hair he tore. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAkgqXRn8yOu
Mindless of others' lives (so high was grown 871Please respect copyright.PENANA9YxacN9Gs3
His rising rage) and careless of his own, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAVJtSKuXxcL
The trembling dotard to the deck he drew; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAte8L7g4cTe
Then hoisted up, and overboard he threw: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAHPl4XrGhUG
This done, he seiz'd the helm; his fellows cheer'd, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA2WG3A0pDFn
Turn'd short upon the shelfs, and madly steer'd. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAincRlbz5BY
Hardly his head the plunging pilot rears, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAjzyjVxPTgM
Clogg'd with his clothes, and cumber'd with his years: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAk6RGjh3ZxH
Now dropping wet, he climbs the cliff with pain. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAWJ5amK5GPJ
The crowd, that saw him fall and float again, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAILgGED9WI7
Shout from the distant shore; and loudly laugh'd, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAPSVsr5OeJo
To see his heaving breast disgorge the briny draught. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAQMkdrVQvxJ
The following Centaur, and the Dolphin's crew, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAuvjn36qQ0T
Their vanish'd hopes of victory renew; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAzmQt3IZwL5
While Gyas lags, they kindle in the race, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAmvMhKlGLSp
To reach the mark. Sergesthus takes the place; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAj5TM6fSW5r
Mnestheus pursues; and while around they wind, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAdC5F3SSwVb
Comes up, not half his galley's length behind; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAsQaGj4Xv1N
Then, on the deck, amidst his mates appear'd, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAWKQC579YlK
And thus their drooping courage he cheer'd: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAKbatgtFIsM
"My friends, and Hector's followers heretofore, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAgckrPIzeRb
Exert your vigor; tug the lab'ring oar; 871Please respect copyright.PENANApHYnjcUMqG
Stretch to your strokes, my still unconquer'd crew, 871Please respect copyright.PENANATevVUIFzcF
Whom from the flaming walls of Troy I drew. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAbMFLJPXRqw
In this, our common int'rest, let me find 871Please respect copyright.PENANAwQ6fAmOVGI
That strength of hand, that courage of the mind, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAtxr5A4JMAQ
As when you stemm'd the strong Malean flood, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAjyJg1Az6Tb
And o'er the Syrtes' broken billows row'd. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAvOM0AAuoAe
I seek not now the foremost palm to gain; 871Please respect copyright.PENANA4NCDVPOqJW
Tho' yet- but, ah! that haughty wish is vain! 871Please respect copyright.PENANAv5s9OmJJqR
Let those enjoy it whom the gods ordain. 871Please respect copyright.PENANATAhgqzTaxj
But to be last, the lags of all the race!- 871Please respect copyright.PENANA8Qh4IvicxM
Redeem yourselves and me from that disgrace." 871Please respect copyright.PENANAjJ6dMXyokf
Now, one and all, they tug amain; they row 871Please respect copyright.PENANA0RNWItO7Jf
At the full stretch, and shake the brazen prow. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAEhyY9WdSMI
The sea beneath 'em sinks; their lab'ring sides 871Please respect copyright.PENANAh2sMekSWfz
Are swell'd, and sweat runs gutt'ring down in tides. 871Please respect copyright.PENANACMRTgFCSmA
Chance aids their daring with unhop'd success; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAKGGjZlWrkB
Sergesthus, eager with his beak to press 871Please respect copyright.PENANAyF8ECa7t11
Betwixt the rival galley and the rock, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAnk1EXNxyh6
Shuts up th' unwieldly Centaur in the lock. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAZ37nu9QqHQ
The vessel struck; and, with the dreadful shock, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAGpDEc1TQXX
Her oars she shiver'd, and her head she broke. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAj7ji8ewi1p
The trembling rowers from their banks arise, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAoj4rswgrgj
And, anxious for themselves, renounce the prize. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAEHBWMQnPPX
With iron poles they heave her off the shores, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA3pfDe03HFh
And gather from the sea their floating oars. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAgNKtGF07El
The crew of Mnestheus, with elated minds, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAmEzc3G3IFa
Urge their success, and call the willing winds; 871Please respect copyright.PENANA1Kr0wopmgt
Then ply their oars, and cut their liquid way 871Please respect copyright.PENANA7dT0ykAhcI
In larger compass on the roomy sea. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAEDh5fBPdxU
As, when the dove her rocky hold forsakes, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAQJYYS9nSuv
Rous'd in a fright, her sounding wings she shakes; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAYfbY2n62v1
The cavern rings with clatt'ring; out she flies, 871Please respect copyright.PENANATTf74jfN5v
And leaves her callow care, and cleaves the skies: 871Please respect copyright.PENANA9ll2t4vnDy
At first she flutters; but at length she springs 871Please respect copyright.PENANAMIcd0ivBIN
To smoother flight, and shoots upon her wings: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAo6Rk6BgZCJ
So Mnestheus in the Dolphin cuts the sea; 871Please respect copyright.PENANA9tLeO4ZyNd
And, flying with a force, that force assists his way. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAu4Yu62mv03
Sergesthus in the Centaur soon he pass'd, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAwR19Ls13R8
Wedg'd in the rocky shoals, and sticking fast. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAf369Ct0Sp0
In vain the victor he with cries implores, 871Please respect copyright.PENANASpGSuUMxmA
And practices to row with shatter'd oars. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAUFmtzhbKkC
Then Mnestheus bears with Gyas, and outflies: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAlQJeJEXRd4
The ship, without a pilot, yields the prize. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA6UrzNSgkia
Unvanquish'd Scylla now alone remains; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAEpcMKNvReW
Her he pursues, and all his vigor strains. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA4kq7VcOIuc
Shouts from the fav'ring multitude arise; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAYxFJO265jY
Applauding Echo to the shouts replies; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAdiPJkyeCdT
Shouts, wishes, and applause run rattling thro' the skies. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAwZiEHAIW0l
These clamors with disdain the Scylla heard, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAOXco1sSWlH
Much grudg'd the praise, but more the robb'd reward: 871Please respect copyright.PENANANC7WdySvmE
Resolv'd to hold their own, they mend their pace, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA3rNEPDDBSY
All obstinate to die, or gain the race. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAqhT3T4pp8b
Rais'd with success, the Dolphin swiftly ran; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAzWI3lnvZRe
For they can conquer, who believe they can. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAkPFhAOI04P
Both urge their oars, and fortune both supplies, 871Please respect copyright.PENANARpcfXcWhPO
And both perhaps had shar'd an equal prize; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAAMrDeXNP0m
When to the seas Cloanthus holds his hands, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAbkMtxnx4kn
And succor from the wat'ry pow'rs demands: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAQGu6vxup6x
"Gods of the liquid realms, on which I row! 871Please respect copyright.PENANAzYUz3aF6kf
If, giv'n by you, the laurel bind my brow, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAXvLkUnJjHc
Assist to make me guilty of my vow! 871Please respect copyright.PENANAa4Rtafb7GU
A snow-white bull shall on your shore be slain; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAWNdrZVh1Nq
His offer'd entrails cast into the main, 871Please respect copyright.PENANANNWhOMpIEH
And ruddy wine, from golden goblets thrown, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAkCKt8SWKji
Your grateful gift and my return shall own." 871Please respect copyright.PENANA3fsI5veyMX
The choir of nymphs, and Phorcus, from below, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAgiIbhpZjM9
With virgin Panopea, heard his vow; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAwb9KCmTOic
And old Portunus, with his breadth of hand, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAyBpbZWHVmN
Push'd on, and sped the galley to the land. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAgKnlZsrpXh
Swift as a shaft, or winged wind, she flies, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA8hzw3sQ1EA
And, darting to the port, obtains the prize. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA26m6cFxRIk
The herald summons all, and then proclaims 871Please respect copyright.PENANAvtApDvow4M
Cloanthus conqu'ror of the naval games. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAuRV5F3J1S8
The prince with laurel crowns the victor's head, 871Please respect copyright.PENANApsSNRM1iGS
And three fat steers are to his vessel led, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAzZKNWdXEVu
The ship's reward; with gen'rous wine beside, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAiv4KgkIa5A
And sums of silver, which the crew divide. 871Please respect copyright.PENANACFxT0QSQln
The leaders are distinguish'd from the rest; 871Please respect copyright.PENANA22hqoyLVYi
The victor honor'd with a nobler vest, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA7ghLBhvVER
Where gold and purple strive in equal rows, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA1YBe0e6UO1
And needlework its happy cost bestows. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAexu1s3Q77B
There Ganymede is wrought with living art, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA772Jmi76iB
Chasing thro' Ida's groves the trembling hart: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAKwOtmYpQZG
Breathless he seems, yet eager to pursue; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAOxjg1rqh14
When from aloft descends, in open view, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAFuvwbPHduF
The bird of Jove, and, sousing on his prey, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA3uwHKF0KQw
With crooked talons bears the boy away. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAj4l6jL5b6D
In vain, with lifted hands and gazing eyes, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA0hdUyW0JGg
His guards behold him soaring thro' the skies, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAjMtS1Sg53b
And dogs pursue his flight with imitated cries. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAtpqmrx8teO
Mnestheus the second victor was declar'd; 871Please respect copyright.PENANARwMY7kqufS
And, summon'd there, the second prize he shard. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAIA76qAqr5E
A coat of mail, brave Demoleus bore, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAcWotMDB9CG
More brave Aeneas from his shoulders tore, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAA56SKJqTQM
In single combat on the Trojan shore: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAHzGyLU7MtG
This was ordain'd for Mnestheus to possess; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAr9EYCbL2Xm
In war for his defense, for ornament in peace. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAJ9FsI1tlB6
Rich was the gift, and glorious to behold, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAEAb1GvYJTc
But yet so pond'rous with its plates of gold, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAG0NPrLyXN1
That scarce two servants could the weight sustain; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAZtFiWh2xhW
Yet, loaded thus, Demoleus o'er the plain 871Please respect copyright.PENANAoFdzZGUqHY
Pursued and lightly seiz'd the Trojan train. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAJAYP0V9Zbe
The third, succeeding to the last reward, 871Please respect copyright.PENANArDtHWdiuht
Two goodly bowls of massy silver shar'd, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAgZX9QoVSd8
With figures prominent, and richly wrought, 871Please respect copyright.PENANABP6MMUB3h5
And two brass caldrons from Dodona brought. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAz9Chmculwx
Thus all, rewarded by the hero's hands, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAHttzOSqMyx
Their conqu'ring temples bound with purple bands; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAYA4T1qpRFq
And now Sergesthus, clearing from the rock, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAqgm3OF1EzC
Brought back his galley shatter'd with the shock. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAswCnzn7iIl
Forlorn she look'd, without an aiding oar, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA0vJ5uWkTCy
And, houted by the vulgar, made to shore. 871Please respect copyright.PENANASUwTU1tlbd
As when a snake, surpris'd upon the road, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAinSHZG12J8
Is crush'd athwart her body by the load 871Please respect copyright.PENANAvCuMXFuo2O
Of heavy wheels; or with a mortal wound 871Please respect copyright.PENANAQ3pfUpMrvk
Her belly bruis'd, and trodden to the ground: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAGHBqxUul0U
In vain, with loosen'd curls, she crawls along; 871Please respect copyright.PENANArsOerrnDLD
Yet, fierce above, she brandishes her tongue; 871Please respect copyright.PENANANjw9XLo50Q
Glares with her eyes, and bristles with her scales; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAjCAbNwP409
But, groveling in the dust, her parts unsound she trails: 871Please respect copyright.PENANA1KcQX0vd0n
So slowly to the port the Centaur tends, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAKY3rNVa8Uy
But, what she wants in oars, with sails amends. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAYvpuxLPHJF
Yet, for his galley sav'd, the grateful prince 871Please respect copyright.PENANAoVXkiU4kmj
Is pleas'd th' unhappy chief to recompense. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA43VZ57UOvw
Pholoe, the Cretan slave, rewards his care, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA07WWyctWcT
Beauteous herself, with lovely twins as fair. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAs1IjMfJwts
From thence his way the Trojan hero bent 871Please respect copyright.PENANA91I2xg5ur3
Into the neighb'ring plain, with mountains pent, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAvUdpS4lfsw
Whose sides were shaded with surrounding wood. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAqihwCEgQDN
Full in the midst of this fair valley stood 871Please respect copyright.PENANA69eUjGtl25
A native theater, which, rising slow 871Please respect copyright.PENANA0NkoLDGeLD
By just degrees, o'erlook'd the ground below. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAqSGBx1Q6YW
High on a sylvan throne the leader sate; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAR5xDjDWntv
A num'rous train attend in solemn state. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAc5FeCskBsx
Here those that in the rapid course delight, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAe9bVpXDGjK
Desire of honor and the prize invite. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAZ6Qk2iOY6u
The rival runners without order stand; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAdZpzKk2Oru
The Trojans mix'd with the Sicilian band. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAiv98sxkfCK
First Nisus, with Euryalus, appears; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAKKsKK0f8Ow
Euryalus a boy of blooming years, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAuRaLHEDLWa
With sprightly grace and equal beauty crown'd; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAS8tJDDhaUy
Nisus, for friendship to the youth renown'd. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAGvjge1mdvR
Diores next, of Priam's royal race, 871Please respect copyright.PENANATKBuKpS8KO
Then Salius joined with Patron, took their place; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAe7A2kfWxFw
(But Patron in Arcadia had his birth, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAzq3BpUOVvn
And Salius his from Arcananian earth;) 871Please respect copyright.PENANAulRqZevwCl
Then two Sicilian youths- the names of these, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAbwH5WA4L8d
Swift Helymus, and lovely Panopes: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAYUaOCjAJvo
Both jolly huntsmen, both in forest bred, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAUiYCEbXfWD
And owning old Acestes for their head; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAstUim1PcH5
With sev'ral others of ignobler name, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAYJGqJgQa9b
Whom time has not deliver'd o'er to fame. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAdyoLrLABsn
To these the hero thus his thoughts explain'd, 871Please respect copyright.PENANALe2Z94g3oD
In words which gen'ral approbation gain'd: 871Please respect copyright.PENANA6PNV76kNix
"One common largess is for all design'd, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAFBGi5s1Gno
(The vanquish'd and the victor shall be join'd,) 871Please respect copyright.PENANAxfScs5PQH6
Two darts of polish'd steel and Gnosian wood, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAuCJXjHuQQ7
A silver-studded ax, alike bestow'd. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAqKkE2EQ3Vl
The foremost three have olive wreaths decreed: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAX07cjxFvY2
The first of these obtains a stately steed, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA9FLKeZCQOL
Adorn'd with trappings; and the next in fame, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAGa2LGFCXNx
The quiver of an Amazonian dame, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAkBhaSKJ3mn
With feather'd Thracian arrows well supplied: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAdabtykU3Vr
A golden belt shall gird his manly side, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA4iQUjApReG
Which with a sparkling diamond shall be tied. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAcnZykuyHmm
The third this Grecian helmet shall content." 871Please respect copyright.PENANAyNbhOgVtkC
He said. To their appointed base they went; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAl0OCqwT5CY
With beating hearts th' expected sign receive, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAY2vLGGcYbt
And, starting all at once, the barrier leave. 871Please respect copyright.PENANApxDSvDwVGC
Spread out, as on the winged winds, they flew, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAcLqoOAvvKG
And seiz'd the distant goal with greedy view. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAc9OurzzFBn
Shot from the crowd, swift Nisus all o'erpass'd; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAxOE8QOLxQ4
Nor storms, nor thunder, equal half his haste. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAGy5IsVcbA3
The next, but tho' the next, yet far disjoin'd, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAJFNpNAYi7i
Came Salius, and Euryalus behind; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAAJ6pJJ3ngt
Then Helymus, whom young Diores plied, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAdymYgQ6vFn
Step after step, and almost side by side, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAzUp25wAFwS
His shoulders pressing; and, in longer space, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAKuH5MywBtb
Had won, or left at least a dubious race. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAJIKwN7CrjS
Now, spent, the goal they almost reach at last, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAgcz6kjqs9W
When eager Nisus, hapless in his haste, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAaebtG8Penn
Slipp'd first, and, slipping, fell upon the plain, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAEzbzkTqRgR
Soak'd with the blood of oxen newly slain. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAmPCGzy2ezL
The careless victor had not mark'd his way; 871Please respect copyright.PENANASSKZ6bYAb1
But, treading where the treach'rous puddle lay, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAsbDrdNV9uc
His heels flew up; and on the grassy floor 871Please respect copyright.PENANAxlNkbGjlJi
He fell, besmear'd with filth and holy gore. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAvTp3KRx3gk
Not mindless then, Euryalus, of thee, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAl8HOkvHFTS
Nor of the sacred bonds of amity, 871Please respect copyright.PENANARtJPZ0ItcI
He strove th' immediate rival's hope to cross, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA9HCuHIFTvU
And caught the foot of Salius as he rose. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAkHXpVjoIre
So Salius lay extended on the plain; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAHV6jsbiXOJ
Euryalus springs out, the prize to gain, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAW6icPkdYiV
And leaves the crowd: applauding peals attend 871Please respect copyright.PENANAhrapZQuMZ2
The victor to the goal, who vanquish'd by his friend. 871Please respect copyright.PENANASHfzJwAFAm
Next Helymus; and then Diores came, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAmh5ZkmtUEG
By two misfortunes made the third in fame. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA0etBikjf4X
But Salius enters, and, exclaiming loud 871Please respect copyright.PENANAeg0SrodTtI
For justice, deafens and disturbs the crowd; 871Please respect copyright.PENANANWjlHOB1t4
Urges his cause may in the court be heard; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAusqQhGHesQ
And pleads the prize is wrongfully conferr'd. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA9yVUOjC6oP
But favor for Euryalus appears; 871Please respect copyright.PENANA6WzzcVxDk3
His blooming beauty, with his tender tears, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAzrZuy5abCd
Had brib'd the judges for the promis'd prize. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAUXehzVykgZ
Besides, Diores fills the court with cries, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAtmrlsd3g5R
Who vainly reaches at the last reward, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAVBKF1HLnaS
If the first palm on Salius be conferr'd. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAaJddMBrMsp
Then thus the prince: "Let no disputes arise: 871Please respect copyright.PENANACqxH6rEBw4
Where fortune plac'd it, I award the prize. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAbzJ2yc0tJW
But fortune's errors give me leave to mend, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAT8E6t6VErA
At least to pity my deserving friend." 871Please respect copyright.PENANAcfwFrj6Bw8
He said, and, from among the spoils, he draws 871Please respect copyright.PENANAfYanLLmCOm
(Pond'rous with shaggy mane and golden paws) 871Please respect copyright.PENANAweEHR2O3tL
A lion's hide: to Salius this he gives. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAWS3t5VgAsx
Nisus with envy sees the gift, and grieves. 871Please respect copyright.PENANABKaxKwOke4
"If such rewards to vanquish'd men are due." 871Please respect copyright.PENANADSUJrcNIUh
He said, "and falling is to rise by you, 871Please respect copyright.PENANATKKWYyGzvu
What prize may Nisus from your bounty claim, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAjSywWEMlYB
Who merited the first rewards and fame? 871Please respect copyright.PENANAAikN8TTSX9
In falling, both an equal fortune tried; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAeeeNaKbdx9
Would fortune for my fall so well provide!" 871Please respect copyright.PENANAca6siSTC4p
With this he pointed to his face, and show'd 871Please respect copyright.PENANA5CY6xy1Gmc
His hand and all his habit smear'd with blood. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAldDajNXtut
Th' indulgent father of the people smil'd, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAeQlDc3mQ2q
And caus'd to be produc'd an ample shield, 871Please respect copyright.PENANADwAWDTUndv
Of wondrous art, by Didymaon wrought, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA46hQOSSZHG
Long since from Neptune's bars in triumph brought. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA6kWhrgahtN
This giv'n to Nisus, he divides the rest, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAOkeQHQsuda
And equal justice in his gifts express'd. 871Please respect copyright.PENANANr31DvNoCT
The race thus ended, and rewards bestow'd, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAkBD8YUMZ9Y
Once more the princes bespeaks th' attentive crowd: 871Please respect copyright.PENANA9I2yOgFwur
"If there he here whose dauntless courage dare 871Please respect copyright.PENANAarBV5pZ7Kr
In gauntlet-fight, with limbs and body bare, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAkwH3iagiou
His opposite sustain in open view, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA3JnifBGpeq
Stand forth the champion, and the games renew. 871Please respect copyright.PENANABd89QRamtk
Two prizes I propose, and thus divide: 871Please respect copyright.PENANA6egVcfmSJv
A bull with gilded horns, and fillets tied, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAdgxztFKF3m
Shall be the portion of the conqu'ring chief; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAnWZfu2hJp4
A sword and helm shall cheer the loser's grief." 871Please respect copyright.PENANAXwY3Wrl2Ml
Then haughty Dares in the lists appears; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAhz9uqMwzP7
Stalking he strides, his head erected bears: 871Please respect copyright.PENANASVJ4fDm7Pp
His nervous arms the weighty gauntlet wield, 871Please respect copyright.PENANACVcekYylsp
And loud applauses echo thro' the field. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAhD52wxo8M4
Dares alone in combat us'd to stand 871Please respect copyright.PENANAKyuAYOoVHG
The match of mighty Paris, hand to hand; 871Please respect copyright.PENANANLOx0itn2V
The same, at Hector's fun'rals, undertook 871Please respect copyright.PENANAjOi6q31cwb
Gigantic Butes, of th' Amycian stock, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAN8QNcuWYHS
And, by the stroke of his resistless hand, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA3YNCCtVLWl
Stretch'd the vast bulk upon the yellow sand. 871Please respect copyright.PENANANCeAqAbOY1
Such Dares was; and such he strode along, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA09c8HZfU4L
And drew the wonder of the gazing throng. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAce747ZdyqR
His brawny back and ample breast he shows, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAgHpht912qJ
His lifted arms around his head he throws, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAPxmRMWhQ3H
And deals in whistling air his empty blows. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAmPS41tiQfn
His match is sought; but, thro' the trembling band, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAgYFIONLMVO
Not one dares answer to the proud demand. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAExIjHxwjbm
Presuming of his force, with sparkling eyes 871Please respect copyright.PENANAUpdqjlBAa4
Already he devours the promis'd prize. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAv5SB59PxLY
He claims the bull with awless insolence, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAUCXoUEz1Az
And having seiz'd his horns, accosts the prince: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAxO0WK50sFt
"If none my matchless valor dares oppose, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA7EKQHS2v8P
How long shall Dares wait his dastard foes? 871Please respect copyright.PENANAXq3uNPCF97
Permit me, chief, permit without delay, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA82HBBIKS6M
To lead this uncontended gift away." 871Please respect copyright.PENANASQWkJ2UwvN
The crowd assents, and with redoubled cries 871Please respect copyright.PENANAlwqjuy1yoO
For the proud challenger demands the prize. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAYinX1Sb2bk
Acestes, fir'd with just disdain, to see 871Please respect copyright.PENANATZ6j8RR9Mu
The palm usurp'd without a victory, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAl0rWMEjqPW
Reproach'd Entellus thus, who sate beside, 871Please respect copyright.PENANABcoZJPXu3d
And heard and saw, unmov'd, the Trojan's pride: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAPXdGYpHdtb
"Once, but in vain, a champion of renown, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAB7nkxwAp3V
So tamely can you bear the ravish'd crown, 871Please respect copyright.PENANALw4AxlrZ11
A prize in triumph borne before your sight, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAHogkZtdeHD
And shun, for fear, the danger of the fight? 871Please respect copyright.PENANALfHoUJe2hN
Where is our Eryx now, the boasted name, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAJCaKdFB6Aj
The god who taught your thund'ring arm the game? 871Please respect copyright.PENANAFU17ntjDAj
Where now your baffled honor? Where the spoil 871Please respect copyright.PENANANy44adoxuC
That fill'd your house, and fame that fill'd our isle?" 871Please respect copyright.PENANAXa2TcgcwIy
Entellus, thus: "My soul is still the same, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAVq7x9JuddI
Unmov'd with fear, and mov'd with martial fame; 871Please respect copyright.PENANA9gm4LsjYun
But my chill blood is curdled in my veins, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAslXJaxpjyZ
And scarce the shadow of a man remains. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA0wkM7I9tBe
O could I turn to that fair prime again, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAiaq4EnzWB8
That prime of which this boaster is so vain, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAYcDKGffZ49
The brave, who this decrepid age defies, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAo6DATdirUH
Should feel my force, without the promis'd prize." 871Please respect copyright.PENANAIk4Ofrt1yS
He said; and, rising at the word, he threw 871Please respect copyright.PENANArivHYj6pZ1
Two pond'rous gauntlets down in open view; 871Please respect copyright.PENANA8Pavn5EuU0
Gauntlets which Eryx wont in fight to wield, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAkkGcbM1SRd
And sheathe his hands with in the listed field. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAzqGZmBLug6
With fear and wonder seiz'd, the crowd beholds 871Please respect copyright.PENANA3Lj4dOVRjF
The gloves of death, with sev'n distinguish'd folds 871Please respect copyright.PENANAFSlNcpcvUv
Of tough bull hides; the space within is spread 871Please respect copyright.PENANA9mv3D5fdDE
With iron, or with loads of heavy lead: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAjvHcZRMNvr
Dares himself was daunted at the sight, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAe6SduujnPv
Renounc'd his challenge, and refus'd to fight. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAQOX3BGjGh4
Astonish'd at their weight, the hero stands, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA7wTVuCL0bU
And pois'd the pond'rous engines in his hands. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAEXVXDMhF4F
"What had your wonder," said Entellus, "been, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAUlT9Dyi4i8
Had you the gauntlets of Alcides seen, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAa0atMW0DlN
Or view'd the stern debate on this unhappy green! 871Please respect copyright.PENANA93dQr06Qh1
These which I bear your brother Eryx bore, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAgaLEXxKMMD
Still mark'd with batter'd brains and mingled gore. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAGYlXJMq5G2
With these he long sustain'd th' Herculean arm; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAkgQaCzpvGV
And these I wielded while my blood was warm, 871Please respect copyright.PENANALyRXmdeHpM
This languish'd frame while better spirits fed, 871Please respect copyright.PENANALQ5MekNztp
Ere age unstrung my nerves, or time o'ersnow'd my head. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAkNCeytXJNU
But if the challenger these arms refuse, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAdrhhUr1pm2
And cannot wield their weight, or dare not use; 871Please respect copyright.PENANA8sSARRzhoy
If great Aeneas and Acestes join 871Please respect copyright.PENANAPTanUW1vgN
In his request, these gauntlets I resign; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAHqBsgEmr2r
Let us with equal arms perform the fight, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAMbfGKlQXnT
And let him leave to fear, since I resign my right." 871Please respect copyright.PENANAx6AvmWbXYD
This said, Entellus for the strife prepares; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAfRAYPfLWQh
Stripp'd of his quilted coat, his body bares; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAoNK2wNLF1y
Compos'd of mighty bones and brawn he stands, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA13SJvqZZXu
A goodly tow'ring object on the sands. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAlRZhwc1Cgn
Then just Aeneas equal arms supplied, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAf7SG31su80
Which round their shoulders to their wrists they tied. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAhY8B8J4LJk
Both on the tiptoe stand, at full extent, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAKeds3d0iE5
Their arms aloft, their bodies inly bent; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAaxRXdqQxsI
Their heads from aiming blows they bear afar; 871Please respect copyright.PENANATPxbG6GEfZ
With clashing gauntlets then provoke the war. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAWKC3x3AE7d
One on his youth and pliant limbs relies; 871Please respect copyright.PENANArna5A4IGxN
One on his sinews and his giant size. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAjP6Z94ExGE
The last is stiff with age, his motion slow; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAXtZ95v7qlp
He heaves for breath, he staggers to and fro, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA3flYhoijBm
And clouds of issuing smoke his nostrils loudly blow. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAjBTJHCGKqy
Yet equal in success, they ward, they strike; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAi29M9xX3UM
Their ways are diff'rent, but their art alike. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA7rvzjReKgQ
Before, behind, the blows are dealt; around 871Please respect copyright.PENANAQtg1KitBdj
Their hollow sides the rattling thumps resound. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAT8qVbmFixC
A storm of strokes, well meant, with fury flies, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAv0fBte3kXk
And errs about their temples, ears, and eyes. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAE48ob0N6G4
Nor always errs; for oft the gauntlet draws 871Please respect copyright.PENANACEcWuZFskG
A sweeping stroke along the crackling jaws. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAdWsyn9y7fM
Heavy with age, Entellus stands his ground, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAlD91gUuNu3
But with his warping body wards the wound. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAorx5yDp75t
His hand and watchful eye keep even pace; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAdIDI1XtdBr
While Dares traverses and shifts his place, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAqTmVvIlZ8O
And, like a captain who beleaguers round 871Please respect copyright.PENANAP5ESxrU510
Some strong-built castle on a rising ground, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAbCG5rlgg33
Views all th' approaches with observing eyes: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAyGSOHAyIQM
This and that other part in vain he tries, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAwmSMWwstIf
And more on industry than force relies. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAYB9DK45jx8
With hands on high, Entellus threats the foe; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAzrFEKjkwRg
But Dares watch'd the motion from below, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAelbKwr14YO
And slipp'd aside, and shunn'd the long descending blow. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAhnrCJg54Kt
Entellus wastes his forces on the wind, 871Please respect copyright.PENANArIn0EaLteW
And, thus deluded of the stroke design'd, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAUivxtIzDeN
Headlong and heavy fell; his ample breast 871Please respect copyright.PENANAp3bOP4jjJd
And weighty limbs his ancient mother press'd. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA1VOvEXifag
So falls a hollow pine, that long had stood 871Please respect copyright.PENANAZ5uShrSqEg
On Ida's height, or Erymanthus' wood, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAwCeh9k9w8r
Torn from the roots. The diff'ring nations rise, 871Please respect copyright.PENANALRCVb6J6gN
And shouts and mingled murmurs rend the skies, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAOHzYRvo3XD
Acestus runs with eager haste, to raise 871Please respect copyright.PENANAaMvhOJ7wyF
The fall'n companion of his youthful days. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAsYyfZF5PNj
Dauntless he rose, and to the fight return'd; 871Please respect copyright.PENANASOiVlHUMwy
With shame his glowing cheeks, his eyes with fury burn'd. 871Please respect copyright.PENANArF0x6niOtu
Disdain and conscious virtue fir'd his breast, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAEJJsqvLRTg
And with redoubled force his foe he press'd. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAqxO7AxAs9S
He lays on load with either hand, amain, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAVXfNdCNBmr
And headlong drives the Trojan o'er the plain; 871Please respect copyright.PENANA0GLNhO1VAq
Nor stops, nor stays; nor rest nor breath allows; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAQnlGvb0YNd
But storms of strokes descend about his brows, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAtZrwekNly0
A rattling tempest, and a hail of blows. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAkupz8plcKB
But now the prince, who saw the wild increase 871Please respect copyright.PENANABzH8gQTTMa
Of wounds, commands the combatants to cease, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAwhJV1ro2f5
And bounds Entellus' wrath, and bids the peace. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAxKBuOMhFCY
First to the Trojan, spent with toil, he came, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAV7LNIPQOzB
And sooth'd his sorrow for the suffer'd shame. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAtX7THDw6nZ
"What fury seiz'd my friend? The gods," said he, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAQ4J4pSV2BL
"To him propitious, and averse to thee, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAETNHhlO5ma
Have giv'n his arm superior force to thine. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAlJ5TTxM1dJ
'T is madness to contend with strength divine." 871Please respect copyright.PENANAf2PjKyhXHD
The gauntlet fight thus ended, from the shore 871Please respect copyright.PENANAgDXMacc0G6
His faithful friends unhappy Dares bore: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAh9KzFqtxpO
His mouth and nostrils pour'd a purple flood, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAEHa78q0xpr
And pounded teeth came rushing with his blood. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA1j71Eu2j9x
Faintly he stagger'd thro' the hissing throng, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAykEnjdrcnH
And hung his head, and trail'd his legs along. 871Please respect copyright.PENANASewsuqUIKa
The sword and casque are carried by his train; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAczgzQFn9av
But with his foe the palm and ox remain. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA3CqCYVBbAp
The champion, then, before Aeneas came, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAPiThkheOJQ
Proud of his prize, but prouder of his fame: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAvQmMzcysND
"O goddess-born, and you, Dardanian host, 871Please respect copyright.PENANARjBiJuClrw
Mark with attention, and forgive my boast; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAWN2Z8AJA1L
Learn what I was, by what remains; and know 871Please respect copyright.PENANAPimuFuwA3h
From what impending fate you sav'd my foe." 871Please respect copyright.PENANAYfUPvFPINd
Sternly he spoke, and then confronts the bull; 871Please respect copyright.PENANANGcvrThPPh
And, on his ample forehead aiming full, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAJOdwxCm1jc
The deadly stroke, descending, pierc'd the skull. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAetNxH1ZVR8
Down drops the beast, nor needs a second wound, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAO9ivd5VF0K
But sprawls in pangs of death, and spurns the ground. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAWcjVtfrJjD
Then, thus: "In Dares' stead I offer this. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA7t4ZUsMDnk
Eryx, accept a nobler sacrifice; 871Please respect copyright.PENANARKU8tfyAJ3
Take the last gift my wither'd arms can yield: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAzYyEMKCOtp
Thy gauntlets I resign, and here renounce the field." 871Please respect copyright.PENANAthFSXZRgxn
This done, Aeneas orders, for the close, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA7cGJORWoUV
The strife of archers with contending bows. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA3ACv6yTvX0
The mast Sergesthus' shatter'd galley bore 871Please respect copyright.PENANATKj6rT9pZS
With his own hands he raises on the shore. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAMhRbVI5Hze
A flutt'ring dove upon the top they tie, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAjatSwK4QF5
The living mark at which their arrows fly. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA9nmdTGo5bq
The rival archers in a line advance, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAUi3SdIyAwG
Their turn of shooting to receive from chance. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAG16ZEyfuCp
A helmet holds their names; the lots are drawn: 871Please respect copyright.PENANA7bhncm0W3M
On the first scroll was read Hippocoon. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAWNXb8jkCLT
The people shout. Upon the next was found 871Please respect copyright.PENANAtGeq89JOzi
Young Mnestheus, late with naval honors crown'd. 871Please respect copyright.PENANArXrzgP1Ea8
The third contain'd Eurytion's noble name, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAiIVF4QVNlX
Thy brother, Pandarus, and next in fame, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA5ltSKSze56
Whom Pallas urg'd the treaty to confound, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAJ8jRp1oYDv
And send among the Greeks a feather'd wound. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAKIebScucrg
Acestes in the bottom last remain'd, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAYcemleQxyP
Whom not his age from youthful sports restrain'd. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAiGHOXgYQzt
Soon all with vigor bend their trusty bows, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAapyNfaFKQ0
And from the quiver each his arrow chose. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAMZXu2Xc8X0
Hippocoon's was the first: with forceful sway 871Please respect copyright.PENANAvHWu8p15yv
It flew, and, whizzing, cut the liquid way. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAqOQBsPGcYo
Fix'd in the mast the feather'd weapon stands: 871Please respect copyright.PENANA8tfckZC2eI
The fearful pigeon flutters in her bands, 871Please respect copyright.PENANApzzduhk7qq
And the tree trembled, and the shouting cries 871Please respect copyright.PENANADCCxI1fR9m
Of the pleas'd people rend the vaulted skies. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAddEUKOTnx5
Then Mnestheus to the head his arrow drove, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAhJmJInUKgR
With lifted eyes, and took his aim above, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAJeyKYPV9gv
But made a glancing shot, and missed the dove; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAcLG1nVPQ5b
Yet miss'd so narrow, that he cut the cord 871Please respect copyright.PENANAfuYZLAXNvr
Which fasten'd by the foot the flitting bird. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAZUL2RN1MxJ
The captive thus releas'd, away she flies, 871Please respect copyright.PENANATZIj7J98BK
And beats with clapping wings the yielding skies. 871Please respect copyright.PENANACQejkCug1z
His bow already bent, Eurytion stood; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAEYWqFeKByW
And, having first invok'd his brother god, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA0xHDr65hkk
His winged shaft with eager haste he sped. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAemnSrtuSNk
The fatal message reach'd her as she fled: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAgC1AOH5k47
She leaves her life aloft; she strikes the ground, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAdNSjQBjlJH
And renders back the weapon in the wound. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAcBl8xMFoyo
Acestes, grudging at his lot, remains, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAM9jzXQtOtX
Without a prize to gratify his pains. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAH0TY8rvPgt
Yet, shooting upward, sends his shaft, to show 871Please respect copyright.PENANApX9beYWB1F
An archer's art, and boast his twanging bow. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAc20v9qkWPs
The feather'd arrow gave a dire portent, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAODhLBiqH3X
And latter augurs judge from this event. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAaWaeQRmN1E
Chaf'd by the speed, it fir'd; and, as it flew, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAhpubB9t9nT
A trail of following flames ascending drew: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAdgWFpFaSHR
Kindling they mount, and mark the shiny way; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAXdkZI0yzYt
Across the skies as falling meteors play, 871Please respect copyright.PENANASjkEC565uT
And vanish into wind, or in a blaze decay. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAuVdNSNWheH
The Trojans and Sicilians wildly stare, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAqr7xBHJpvX
And, trembling, turn their wonder into pray'r. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAVY7QkAGWFw
The Dardan prince put on a smiling face, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA1z91xP0mX8
And strain'd Acestes with a close embrace; 871Please respect copyright.PENANA3jK76DeFCU
Then, hon'ring him with gifts above the rest, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAtNWErNi9PP
Turn'd the bad omen, nor his fears confess'd. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAwAsQ1dMAUT
"The gods," said he, "this miracle have wrought, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAbXV2qjW7x6
And order'd you the prize without the lot. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA4wZxqZL7vT
Accept this goblet, rough with figur'd gold, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAbB829Ocd0c
Which Thracian Cisseus gave my sire of old: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAcIMBBYomlU
This pledge of ancient amity receive, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAKzel0cZ9wa
Which to my second sire I justly give." 871Please respect copyright.PENANAoZwpf2zno1
He said, and, with the trumpets' cheerful sound, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAlrqPffAd48
Proclaim'd him victor, and with laurel-crown'd. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAYqoCxR7XQo
Nor good Eurytion envied him the prize, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAW8A1aSBAd1
Tho' he transfix'd the pigeon in the skies. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA5qaLAHwWwa
Who cut the line, with second gifts was grac'd; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAnjcmUnIpZr
The third was his whose arrow pierc'd the mast. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAnAsJTApdTf
The chief, before the games were wholly done, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAlaOtYsAK0l
Call'd Periphantes, tutor to his son, 871Please respect copyright.PENANADPaZ9caZkP
And whisper'd thus: "With speed Ascanius find; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAbX45EnTOdO
And, if his childish troop be ready join'd, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAheXgBYuT1e
On horseback let him grace his grandsire's day, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA7pWnO2Eb0O
And lead his equals arm'd in just array." 871Please respect copyright.PENANAvH6JN3IUQI
He said; and, calling out, the cirque he clears. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAKB9gcW2PR9
The crowd withdrawn, an open plain appears. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAALQu7PANoC
And now the noble youths, of form divine, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAWdCCCM7bSC
Advance before their fathers, in a line; 871Please respect copyright.PENANACXDqBnNOKK
The riders grace the steeds; the steeds with glory shine. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAu3cMp869HO
Thus marching on in military pride, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAMqJIH4XJ29
Shouts of applause resound from side to side. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAuMlbh4Hh8N
Their casques adorn'd with laurel wreaths they wear, 871Please respect copyright.PENANARXl6fgd305
Each brandishing aloft a cornel spear. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA41zBNmuILu
Some at their backs their gilded quivers bore; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAODoMRRLJNg
Their chains of burnish'd gold hung down before. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA5x2HKVnueV
Three graceful troops they form'd upon the green; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAeun1SNEpkR
Three graceful leaders at their head were seen; 871Please respect copyright.PENANA7Xv9fSywmC
Twelve follow'd ev'ry chief, and left a space between. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAFpnBgPXj73
The first young Priam led; a lovely boy, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA3SnxDuN2Ke
Whose grandsire was th' unhappy king of Troy; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAtXQzamtr75
His race in after times was known to fame, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAjZGYtgZ1lt
New honors adding to the Latian name; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAFgAi8QTw1X
And well the royal boy his Thracian steed became. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA9iPDwbeRsZ
White were the fetlocks of his feet before, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAkNc2rBMibw
And on his front a snowy star he bore. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA6NmlCYw8VC
Then beauteous Atys, with Iulus bred, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAgXLQ45EOB9
Of equal age, the second squadron led. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAKvxC6PytkU
The last in order, but the first in place, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAhonZ1TL2un
First in the lovely features of his face, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA3X1VIO3ZDu
Rode fair Ascanius on a fiery steed, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAnb3NGsmPlU
Queen Dido's gift, and of the Tyrian breed. 871Please respect copyright.PENANALRorA5TcEi
Sure coursers for the rest the king ordains, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAbRhyB5FUzg
With golden bits adorn'd, and purple reins. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAn36Gd3rraO
The pleas'd spectators peals of shouts renew, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAr0OX38yNdk
And all the parents in the children view; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAjHiFaXaK7S
Their make, their motions, and their sprightly grace, 871Please respect copyright.PENANARhAhV8N9zs
And hopes and fears alternate in their face. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA4RMs0YcyPn
Th' unfledg'd commanders and their martial train 871Please respect copyright.PENANAJYFp6Pl6s0
First make the circuit of the sandy plain 871Please respect copyright.PENANAT6oW7EV9qs
Around their sires, and, at th' appointed sign, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAJUy3DgcbMg
Drawn up in beauteous order, form a line. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAvUDwVxUUGi
The second signal sounds, the troop divides 871Please respect copyright.PENANARiYXfPDYLK
In three distinguish'd parts, with three distinguish'd guides 871Please respect copyright.PENANAJnjr3c3Y4h
Again they close, and once again disjoin; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAoLxlLgeJ5G
In troop to troop oppos'd, and line to line. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA9fpE1rxvqJ
They meet; they wheel; they throw their darts afar 871Please respect copyright.PENANArdUqWAEkGY
With harmless rage and well-dissembled war. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA9UiUw468u2
Then in a round the mingled bodies run: 871Please respect copyright.PENANA8eC24kMQur
Flying they follow, and pursuing shun; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAUrPJOHPLyk
Broken, they break; and, rallying, they renew 871Please respect copyright.PENANAr2aMm6F7UI
In other forms the military shew. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAeHyQvRxTOq
At last, in order, undiscern'd they join, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA9W9IT2kKEt
And march together in a friendly line. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAdEdBny028G
And, as the Cretan labyrinth of old, 871Please respect copyright.PENANADfigt2Fz6k
With wand'ring ways and many a winding fold, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAr4VANOIlwr
Involv'd the weary feet, without redress, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAhxWR3EZeh0
In a round error, which denied recess; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAJGghHLrARA
So fought the Trojan boys in warlike play, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAy7uD2ULQPW
Turn'd and return'd, and still a diff'rent way. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA6LoHKg88z5
Thus dolphins in the deep each other chase 871Please respect copyright.PENANAGC9ppzggPO
In circles, when they swim around the wat'ry race. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAght8mAjJ3X
This game, these carousels, Ascanius taught; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAPs7FnzC4al
And, building Alba, to the Latins brought; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAGvRScINOCR
Shew'd what he learn'd: the Latin sires impart 871Please respect copyright.PENANA37zPJZJrnu
To their succeeding sons the graceful art; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAoW3grVLPZV
From these imperial Rome receiv'd the game, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA7ygSk0qqTz
Which Troy, the youths the Trojan troop, they name. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAJhBMuFDsSB
Thus far the sacred sports they celebrate: 871Please respect copyright.PENANA7ORVP0hKVV
But Fortune soon resum'd her ancient hate; 871Please respect copyright.PENANALpYww0RNGb
For, while they pay the dead his annual dues, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAJARAGPxoMv
Those envied rites Saturnian Juno views; 871Please respect copyright.PENANA5CAYJhCQ7O
And sends the goddess of the various bow, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA8ywY9gLN7D
To try new methods of revenge below; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAncBQzIV3I6
Supplies the winds to wing her airy way, 871Please respect copyright.PENANANIJ403CnLD
Where in the port secure the navy lay. 871Please respect copyright.PENANACZ1EzpZP3v
Swiftly fair Iris down her arch descends, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAXaRAGLngXX
And, undiscern'd, her fatal voyage ends. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAvbwRVSSnTP
She saw the gath'ring crowd; and, gliding thence, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAO4ThxEZUl7
The desart shore, and fleet without defense. 871Please respect copyright.PENANABctslUSBmN
The Trojan matrons, on the sands alone, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA5mETL3bsC1
With sighs and tears Anchises' death bemoan; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAoiBbL0sSBa
Then, turning to the sea their weeping eyes, 871Please respect copyright.PENANARBbYcfIYMV
Their pity to themselves renews their cries. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA1lElKaKZvh
"Alas!" said one, "what oceans yet remain 871Please respect copyright.PENANAorY9O6awlZ
For us to sail! what labors to sustain!" 871Please respect copyright.PENANAushDhtuiLw
All take the word, and, with a gen'ral groan, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA8TDWzktML4
Implore the gods for peace, and places of their own. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAIscSqbzOOz
The goddess, great in mischief, views their pains, 871Please respect copyright.PENANArzZpLZonNv
And in a woman's form her heav'nly limbs restrains. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAZqVCheIwmx
In face and shape old Beroe she became, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA7Ak3yNAZrm
Doryclus' wife, a venerable dame, 871Please respect copyright.PENANACGWwil1EtZ
Once blest with riches, and a mother's name. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAuv9mqFzABa
Thus chang'd, amidst the crying crowd she ran, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAabCb3HRSH0
Mix'd with the matrons, and these words began: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAZIK5T1UkWE
"O wretched we, whom not the Grecian pow'r, 871Please respect copyright.PENANApOtDMr8s1g
Nor flames, destroy'd, in Troy's unhappy hour! 871Please respect copyright.PENANAUs52M1zOYS
O wretched we, reserv'd by cruel fate, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAh2BESG6usz
Beyond the ruins of the sinking state! 871Please respect copyright.PENANArldMytGfYn
Now sev'n revolving years are wholly run, 871Please respect copyright.PENANARmtwssEgSF
Since this improsp'rous voyage we begun; 871Please respect copyright.PENANATMo1vL9oYR
Since, toss'd from shores to shores, from lands to lands, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAthnATJM4EE
Inhospitable rocks and barren sands, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAO02LmeZNoc
Wand'ring in exile thro' the stormy sea, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA6z1YKrJvGM
We search in vain for flying Italy. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAHSCqpqwM45
Now cast by fortune on this kindred land, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA1ETTCgvuVZ
What should our rest and rising walls withstand, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA1hsLtRm9xv
Or hinder here to fix our banish'd band? 871Please respect copyright.PENANAuB3dvHF7Xt
O country lost, and gods redeem'd in vain, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA6FOfaVkX3E
If still in endless exile we remain! 871Please respect copyright.PENANAEH1flcQFJZ
Shall we no more the Trojan walls renew, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA0vI8E2ONEq
Or streams of some dissembled Simois view! 871Please respect copyright.PENANAt5qKNJvF8d
Haste, join with me, th' unhappy fleet consume! 871Please respect copyright.PENANAptxqA8m1WD
Cassandra bids; and I declare her doom. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAcNMP71fHzn
In sleep I saw her; she supplied my hands 871Please respect copyright.PENANAEvwKX1MpmX
(For this I more than dreamt) with flaming brands: 871Please respect copyright.PENANA2RBLT6BNRX
'With these,' said she, 'these wand'ring ships destroy: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAdgNFeE8WeI
These are your fatal seats, and this your Troy.' 871Please respect copyright.PENANAxgDzF9WujZ
Time calls you now; the precious hour employ: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAwuANTUsyGz
Slack not the good presage, while Heav'n inspires 871Please respect copyright.PENANAo7zZBs9nYs
Our minds to dare, and gives the ready fires. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAiscQJgWlbI
See! Neptune's altars minister their brands: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAAZ3YrdCMUM
The god is pleas'd; the god supplies our hands." 871Please respect copyright.PENANAAmBbH9EhUZ
Then from the pile a flaming fire she drew, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAtOiqsCm1Mn
And, toss'd in air, amidst the galleys threw. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAiH44oG3wLr
Wrapp'd in amaze, the matrons wildly stare: 871Please respect copyright.PENANALAzYlZtfHT
Then Pyrgo, reverenc'd for her hoary hair, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAX5ICyX2eUY
Pyrgo, the nurse of Priam's num'rous race: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAkyPq45xTBy
"No Beroe this, tho' she belies her face! 871Please respect copyright.PENANAgSiJwEsLDr
What terrors from her frowning front arise! 871Please respect copyright.PENANAvVukZXC9Tv
Behold a goddess in her ardent eyes! 871Please respect copyright.PENANAIZKsNDfV8t
What rays around her heav'nly face are seen! 871Please respect copyright.PENANALifZ4FLSv9
Mark her majestic voice, and more than mortal mien! 871Please respect copyright.PENANAJXndbdQd2z
Beroe but now I left, whom, pin'd with pain, 871Please respect copyright.PENANApyvh7Cjows
Her age and anguish from these rites detain," 871Please respect copyright.PENANAvOMtnkCdF0
She said. The matrons, seiz'd with new amaze, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA2ncjacEPxp
Roll their malignant eyes, and on the navy gaze. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAuZgm5ApI5s
They fear, and hope, and neither part obey: 871Please respect copyright.PENANADSMrYhJMUl
They hope the fated land, but fear the fatal way. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAm9SH8o0WYo
The goddess, having done her task below, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA6Q2KoXLDNB
Mounts up on equal wings, and bends her painted bow. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAC4M7IXPsgu
Struck with the sight, and seiz'd with rage divine, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAZNXQFWhJ2H
The matrons prosecute their mad design: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAmpH4LujrPl
They shriek aloud; they snatch, with impious hands, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAuinbzZNtWQ
The food of altars; fires and flaming brands. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAIoW0GoWe22
Green boughs and saplings, mingled in their haste, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAVA9YeyMoVu
And smoking torches, on the ships they cast. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAScquFCaWyC
The flame, unstopp'd at first, more fury gains, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAeQ63WQJcHZ
And Vulcan rides at large with loosen'd reins: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAeIlIKM8d6J
Triumphant to the painted sterns he soars, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAVVNsCeNCRk
And seizes, in this way, the banks and crackling oars. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAHjW3P1XIlK
Eumelus was the first the news to bear, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAyp6Aad3gMK
While yet they crowd the rural theater. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAE6GcffiWi0
Then, what they hear, is witness'd by their eyes: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAA7tz8eCiLs
A storm of sparkles and of flames arise. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAhOSOb6ArKs
Ascanius took th' alarm, while yet he led 871Please respect copyright.PENANAhbI9RyAUwi
His early warriors on his prancing steed, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAa0Bw2e5MQS
And, spurring on, his equals soon o'erpass'd; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAwBqf6TPvSt
Nor could his frighted friends reclaim his haste. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA4Yz5QvHEqK
Soon as the royal youth appear'd in view, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAKjTHSSz79v
He sent his voice before him as he flew: 871Please respect copyright.PENANADnjNYxr1MD
"What madness moves you, matrons, to destroy 871Please respect copyright.PENANAiCcIyfdROh
The last remainders of unhappy Troy! 871Please respect copyright.PENANAjXh9RPZTqy
Not hostile fleets, but your own hopes, you burn, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA8FtrErEkBv
And on your friends your fatal fury turn. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA2ZXVFP2h7w
Behold your own Ascanius!" While he said, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAG7c9EXHuAs
He drew his glitt'ring helmet from his head, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAnBreWqcZmF
In which the youths to sportful arms he led. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAxhfwxPIOuB
By this, Aeneas and his train appear; 871Please respect copyright.PENANA5ic9jrTwsJ
And now the women, seiz'd with shame and fear, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAhqEpJ1mME5
Dispers'd, to woods and caverns take their flight, 871Please respect copyright.PENANALY1hnuKFCU
Abhor their actions, and avoid the light; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAmnXSYmzVBp
Their friends acknowledge, and their error find, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA5J210zJsme
And shake the goddess from their alter'd mind. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAEB2ZGfwhxX
Not so the raging fires their fury cease, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAxCC7qsXh0Q
But, lurking in the seams, with seeming peace, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAxQAToA5iDT
Work on their way amid the smold'ring tow, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAZcrqrYopkU
Sure in destruction, but in motion slow. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAg7utLAzNjl
The silent plague thro' the green timber eats, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAL6n48LCWDh
And vomits out a tardy flame by fits. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAurQ6wbMXM2
Down to the keels, and upward to the sails, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAF0yH8LXgrj
The fire descends, or mounts, but still prevails; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAywlbC97NQm
Nor buckets pour'd, nor strength of human hand, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAyS7XiUniJE
Can the victorious element withstand. 871Please respect copyright.PENANALmX8BKY0fD
The pious hero rends his robe, and throws 871Please respect copyright.PENANACgUgZdtbV1
To heav'n his hands, and with his hands his vows. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA7mKZO1SmBr
"O Jove," he cried, "if pray'rs can yet have place; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAbGgbxXD9Bp
If thou abhorr'st not all the Dardan race; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAv9aTFjQ4TX
If any spark of pity still remain; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAhuNEFFKNBs
If gods are gods, and not invok'd in vain; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAMdnvOfmIg8
Yet spare the relics of the Trojan train! 871Please respect copyright.PENANAmKW7glsvHk
Yet from the flames our burning vessels free, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA81Enkx5umW
Or let thy fury fall alone on me! 871Please respect copyright.PENANAkqeh7dG9kB
At this devoted head thy thunder throw, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAf79ccGDj9F
And send the willing sacrifice below!" 871Please respect copyright.PENANAprN3s3Z4uB
Scarce had he said, when southern storms arise: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAa5dAPCh5Y5
From pole to pole the forky lightning flies; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAyVdTX0eCLe
Loud rattling shakes the mountains and the plain; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAIReVtmLjAg
Heav'n bellies downward, and descends in rain. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAOQkKhXmo8x
Whole sheets of water from the clouds are sent, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA79aOYRT0kY
Which, hissing thro' the planks, the flames prevent, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAEEFzM831iN
And stop the fiery pest. Four ships alone 871Please respect copyright.PENANAoA5QLPIttA
Burn to the waist, and for the fleet atone. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAKem94ocAEG
But doubtful thoughts the hero's heart divide; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAUis4pEiQrB
If he should still in Sicily reside, 871Please respect copyright.PENANATQEjpgos2J
Forgetful of his fates, or tempt the main, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAWyBmJCCk7G
In hope the promis'd Italy to gain. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA1sUSwk2jym
Then Nautes, old and wise, to whom alone 871Please respect copyright.PENANAvWgob2TkLX
The will of Heav'n by Pallas was foreshown; 871Please respect copyright.PENANACXVAukWhNH
Vers'd in portents, experienc'd, and inspir'd 871Please respect copyright.PENANA7AU0iFA2nH
To tell events, and what the fates requir'd; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAgdzbYz7Eop
Thus while he stood, to neither part inclin'd, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAjsge5icYXG
With cheerful words reliev'd his lab'ring mind: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAfy7vdyxGKQ
"O goddess-born, resign'd in ev'ry state, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAtnzSgAEyIh
With patience bear, with prudence push your fate. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAyRU9OnZ7Bb
By suff'ring well, our Fortune we subdue; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAkIzKFAVyRj
Fly when she frowns, and, when she calls, pursue. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAwP4KOoNYVr
Your friend Acestes is of Trojan kind; 871Please respect copyright.PENANA7vZISKt0U9
To him disclose the secrets of your mind: 871Please respect copyright.PENANA1qMsiq3hwG
Trust in his hands your old and useless train; 871Please respect copyright.PENANA8PHCZ3WP6v
Too num'rous for the ships which yet remain: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAPUJPIJHQ7m
The feeble, old, indulgent of their ease, 871Please respect copyright.PENANARDjMvwb3AY
The dames who dread the dangers of the seas, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA21B1uLZlv8
With all the dastard crew, who dare not stand 871Please respect copyright.PENANAsmOxCQvQyx
The shock of battle with your foes by land. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAmcMuYW4X9W
Here you may build a common town for all, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAjsIh4KZK2u
And, from Acestes' name, Acesta call." 871Please respect copyright.PENANA7FDeqcbe7i
The reasons, with his friend's experience join'd, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA2Hoeqve5Nb
Encourag'd much, but more disturb'd his mind. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAgD1S6qq0kl
'T was dead of night; when to his slumb'ring eyes 871Please respect copyright.PENANAP35DN79cwg
His father's shade descended from the skies, 871Please respect copyright.PENANADD4xPn6s7O
And thus he spoke: "O more than vital breath, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAIr3cKFvO10
Lov'd while I liv'd, and dear ev'n after death; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAgkglNhI3t3
O son, in various toils and troubles toss'd, 871Please respect copyright.PENANArATjmp4mi6
The King of Heav'n employs my careful ghost 871Please respect copyright.PENANAKjvtw6ArVC
On his commands: the god, who sav'd from fire 871Please respect copyright.PENANAoUFkuOFGFW
Your flaming fleet, and heard your just desire. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAmYPiWdZqJm
The wholesome counsel of your friend receive, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAnUWUKyqngg
And here the coward train and woman leave: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAspp8OwCWbS
The chosen youth, and those who nobly dare, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA22DqbtHxJL
Transport, to tempt the dangers of the war. 871Please respect copyright.PENANACRQpsH16Gw
The stern Italians will their courage try; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAzqUftpGI57
Rough are their manners, and their minds are high. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA9Dex0W0CJC
But first to Pluto's palace you shall go, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAiOClEoJcuw
And seek my shade among the blest below: 871Please respect copyright.PENANA11F2223T0Q
For not with impious ghosts my soul remains, 871Please respect copyright.PENANABWyYYmA51u
Nor suffers with the damn'd perpetual pains, 871Please respect copyright.PENANATSypI9oQBr
But breathes the living air of soft Elysian plains. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAoGo3PoR5Jf
The chaste Sibylla shall your steps convey, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA5QIrGBy4qb
And blood of offer'd victims free the way. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAzBoEue4kI5
There shall you know what realms the gods assign, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAFEIjrS05eG
And learn the fates and fortunes of your line. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAWxle8vkNxk
But now, farewell! I vanish with the night, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAHl8kaE14an
And feel the blast of heav'n's approaching light." 871Please respect copyright.PENANA6adSKlb7qd
He said, and mix'd with shades, and took his airy flight. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAVZYZxb9Z4V
"Whither so fast?" the filial duty cried; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAUO2tsnCNmh
"And why, ah why, the wish'd embrace denied?" 871Please respect copyright.PENANAPGDGrchClC
He said, and rose; as holy zeal inspires, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAeCCvfrLbnu
He rakes hot embers, and renews the fires; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAtIScVKKXxr
His country gods and Vesta then adores 871Please respect copyright.PENANAprpvfMdA4l
With cakes and incense, and their aid implores. 871Please respect copyright.PENANALi5wvTHE0N
Next, for his friends and royal host he sent, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAguw0FQvDao
Reveal'd his vision, and the gods' intent, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAQFychVLYHc
With his own purpose. All, without delay, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAxcDBi7bhJn
The will of Jove, and his desires obey. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA1Q0XIgKIH8
They list with women each degenerate name, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAYiEpsbbZxu
Who dares not hazard life for future fame. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAVaYIT8VjmU
These they cashier: the brave remaining few, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAicA5ZV07Mr
Oars, banks, and cables, half consum'd, renew. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAZxt3LtwQVb
The prince designs a city with the plow; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAiulVQXimUk
The lots their sev'ral tenements allow. 871Please respect copyright.PENANARktyO0df6n
This part is nam'd from Ilium, that from Troy, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAkmPzTX1l4r
And the new king ascends the throne with joy; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAlpOhsO2nRB
A chosen senate from the people draws; 871Please respect copyright.PENANA0B1ru2j2i7
Appoints the judges, and ordains the laws. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAA53WsJI5gu
Then, on the top of Eryx, they begin 871Please respect copyright.PENANAj4fbUEBJBm
A rising temple to the Paphian queen. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAhkYm7zehvC
Anchises, last, is honor'd as a god; 871Please respect copyright.PENANABz3yirP8vE
A priest is added, annual gifts bestow'd, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAwmVe4ZZpxY
And groves are planted round his blest abode. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAchZg9kA6H9
Nine days they pass in feasts, their temples crown'd; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAMbMsh4X2FE
And fumes of incense in the fanes abound. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAjgW97Or3pV
Then from the south arose a gentle breeze 871Please respect copyright.PENANAA9GyMn2hSw
That curl'd the smoothness of the glassy seas; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAdf0FhkGlmI
The rising winds a ruffling gale afford, 871Please respect copyright.PENANABKJM97Ehmj
And call the merry mariners aboard. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA7eZyM5QWIf
Now loud laments along the shores resound, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAXnroKdsGtZ
Of parting friends in close embraces bound. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA2ikqIMMge2
The trembling women, the degenerate train, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAeNfCwVK8HT
Who shunn'd the frightful dangers of the main, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA5Gsp1nU3fG
Ev'n those desire to sail, and take their share 871Please respect copyright.PENANAROUyXxSNj1
Of the rough passage and the promis'd war: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAPWJFFjZe07
Whom good Aeneas cheers, and recommends 871Please respect copyright.PENANAwRjFyWxf2u
To their new master's care his fearful friends. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAsZlfsgkyEH
On Eryx's altars three fat calves he lays; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAo1V855cMgd
A lamb new-fallen to the stormy seas; 871Please respect copyright.PENANASXCbJ0KjOF
Then slips his haulsers, and his anchors weighs. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAS5GaC9NrYj
High on the deck the godlike hero stands, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAlj1Mfm1XgG
With olive crown'd, a charger in his hands; 871Please respect copyright.PENANArl7KNIAPac
Then cast the reeking entrails in the brine, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAKIqsge7PMF
And pour'd the sacrifice of purple wine. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAOYclEREkyQ
Fresh gales arise; with equal strokes they vie, 871Please respect copyright.PENANABc7bjNaZOY
And brush the buxom seas, and o'er the billows fly. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAVx53e1AGfK
Meantime the mother goddess, full of fears, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAXxyWK4Xn0e
To Neptune thus address'd, with tender tears: 871Please respect copyright.PENANA7VEzrUg4Ue
"The pride of Jove's imperious queen, the rage, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAEkwUC9kD8f
The malice which no suff'rings can assuage, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA5IDphe7SqT
Compel me to these pray'rs; since neither fate, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAaE7R1ORCUx
Nor time, nor pity, can remove her hate: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAwcHnS9vrtj
Ev'n Jove is thwarted by his haughty wife; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAgLqltKz9rQ
Still vanquish'd, yet she still renews the strife. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAj9sRVyG82w
As if 't were little to consume the town 871Please respect copyright.PENANAhjAwDVU2x7
Which aw'd the world, and wore th' imperial crown, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAvX0gcbLY8q
She prosecutes the ghost of Troy with pains, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAEE2yPX30iV
And gnaws, ev'n to the bones, the last remains. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA9hf6QIcAxZ
Let her the causes of her hatred tell; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAaEhVRNElev
But you can witness its effects too well. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAaSro0uMkmj
You saw the storm she rais'd on Libyan floods, 871Please respect copyright.PENANACdky0vzBMp
That mix'd the mounting billows with the clouds; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAZfW6SXcgIK
When, bribing Aeolus, she shook the main, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAaPzva7NMlp
And mov'd rebellion in your wat'ry reign. 871Please respect copyright.PENANARB0fSuhfAg
With fury she possess'd the Dardan dames, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAg5biv34qdq
To burn their fleet with execrable flames, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAbLxKthH8Ux
And forc'd Aeneas, when his ships were lost, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAHRuCFn6JvB
To leave his foll'wers on a foreign coast. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAKxC4KXKzJK
For what remains, your godhead I implore, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAFrkcWLMBSk
And trust my son to your protecting pow'r. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAX1OSJv2VS6
If neither Jove's nor Fate's decree withstand, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAICgxHmVXMl
Secure his passage to the Latian land." 871Please respect copyright.PENANALCahMYuGyQ
Then thus the mighty Ruler of the Main: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAUX6U2lVKuG
"What may not Venus hope from Neptune's reign? 871Please respect copyright.PENANAql4OZJsY6Z
My kingdom claims your birth; my late defense 871Please respect copyright.PENANAn7Fid6K5tw
Of your indanger'd fleet may claim your confidence. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAeLqyGKWOCF
Nor less by land than sea my deeds declare 871Please respect copyright.PENANAbOFha5mwVX
How much your lov'd Aeneas is my care. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAW8E70WHN7A
Thee, Xanthus, and thee, Simois, I attest. 871Please respect copyright.PENANARN8dz2TMKv
Your Trojan troops when proud Achilles press'd, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAqQhIuN3sSa
And drove before him headlong on the plain, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAyfg2shZHsJ
And dash'd against the walls the trembling train; 871Please respect copyright.PENANACbu2Y3hlSH
When floods were fill'd with bodies of the slain; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAqt9xMHvQV3
When crimson Xanthus, doubtful of his way, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAnXYWTWIA6v
Stood up on ridges to behold the sea; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAOR558O7q0C
(New heaps came tumbling in, and chok'd his way;) 871Please respect copyright.PENANAhqZ2hKGWZS
When your Aeneas fought, but fought with odds 871Please respect copyright.PENANAecx1M9EmAP
Of force unequal, and unequal gods; 871Please respect copyright.PENANA3Cb3XKWIvz
I spread a cloud before the victor's sight, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA01mdvQf0yX
Sustain'd the vanquish'd, and secur'd his flight; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAIXDVcduaeP
Ev'n then secur'd him, when I sought with joy 871Please respect copyright.PENANAErIafMg02r
The vow'd destruction of ungrateful Troy. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAs5ClBc3ynU
My will's the same: fair goddess, fear no more, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAUyguIyvs1d
Your fleet shall safely gain the Latian shore; 871Please respect copyright.PENANA8DF42L4top
Their lives are giv'n; one destin'd head alone 871Please respect copyright.PENANA87YfIYqTS2
Shall perish, and for multitudes atone." 871Please respect copyright.PENANAWsrJKjZM8Y
Thus having arm'd with hopes her anxious mind, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA9ETTxHRkWD
His finny team Saturnian Neptune join'd, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAmxhlOID3vs
Then adds the foamy bridle to their jaws, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAic2gjVs7CV
And to the loosen'd reins permits the laws. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAuoMFyDZ21q
High on the waves his azure car he guides; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAo3uykBkyeW
Its axles thunder, and the sea subsides, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAw8qefXFkOY
And the smooth ocean rolls her silent tides. 871Please respect copyright.PENANASre8stpQCr
The tempests fly before their father's face, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAP93ujrOBEL
Trains of inferior gods his triumph grace, 871Please respect copyright.PENANADB25xkMyBe
And monster whales before their master play, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAdsjVkSJEkE
And choirs of Tritons crowd the wat'ry way. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAorPb2kg7VR
The marshal'd pow'rs in equal troops divide 871Please respect copyright.PENANAxZLCQkzICh
To right and left; the gods his better side 871Please respect copyright.PENANA8aDvIhSdlT
Inclose, and on the worse the Nymphs and Nereids ride. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA8x8KqY7wEt
Now smiling hope, with sweet vicissitude, 871Please respect copyright.PENANARa8nEQUJBU
Within the hero's mind his joys renew'd. 871Please respect copyright.PENANA7oW3qCl0kX
He calls to raise the masts, the sheets display; 871Please respect copyright.PENANASrqGJn4KYd
The cheerful crew with diligence obey; 871Please respect copyright.PENANA6aNrppjzqo
They scud before the wind, and sail in open sea. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAy1BL3Pq7vV
Ahead of all the master pilot steers; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAR080EyKPOG
And, as he leads, the following navy veers. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAaD9JKagwpE
The steeds of Night had travel'd half the sky, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAKTITLPQiii
The drowsy rowers on their benches lie, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAH9Qeg9lQr3
When the soft God of Sleep, with easy flight, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA7IogS3ssps
Descends, and draws behind a trail of light. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAe0ENRu9MTp
Thou, Palinurus, art his destin'd prey; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAJqncJKQVC7
To thee alone he takes his fatal way. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAGFftnkHoEE
Dire dreams to thee, and iron sleep, he bears; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAgZLvHLlb2g
And, lighting on thy prow, the form of Phorbas wears. 871Please respect copyright.PENANANwBi8jNZr3
Then thus the traitor god began his tale: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAdcD9qAUuAU
"The winds, my friend, inspire a pleasing gale; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAoKEWA7Bal1
The ships, without thy care, securely sail. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAcfWvQv1LmQ
Now steal an hour of sweet repose; and I 871Please respect copyright.PENANAc12tnPRoQJ
Will take the rudder and thy room supply." 871Please respect copyright.PENANAI17LTqRFV4
To whom the yawning pilot, half asleep: 871Please respect copyright.PENANAm0jiSrvM9B
"Me dost thou bid to trust the treach'rous deep, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAjE8FAznNIT
The harlot smiles of her dissembling face, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA81Du6viJJa
And to her faith commit the Trojan race? 871Please respect copyright.PENANAUXjmOliz9T
Shall I believe the Siren South again, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAUe7Y5Zku6Y
And, oft betray'd, not know the monster main?" 871Please respect copyright.PENANAmZVJ79UvkA
He said: his fasten'd hands the rudder keep, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAgVOGd49ovU
And, fix'd on heav'n, his eyes repel invading sleep. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAi8CSF9iKtN
The god was wroth, and at his temples threw 871Please respect copyright.PENANAnXqjlJF2oK
A branch in Lethe dipp'd, and drunk with Stygian dew: 871Please respect copyright.PENANA3sNfoye5ye
The pilot, vanquish'd by the pow'r divine, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAIRI3SQeSbY
Soon clos'd his swimming eyes, and lay supine. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAGSd68g5ENy
Scarce were his limbs extended at their length, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAzQL4MvRkUB
The god, insulting with superior strength, 871Please respect copyright.PENANACBObPzDYX9
Fell heavy on him, plung'd him in the sea, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAYkPc3GQ6O0
And, with the stern, the rudder tore away. 871Please respect copyright.PENANALpbGhDyStC
Headlong he fell, and, struggling in the main, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAeuxP7tr1QC
Cried out for helping hands, but cried in vain. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAPCahorC6fl
The victor daemon mounts obscure in air, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAcysukXdJJG
While the ship sails without the pilot's care. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAD4QjwcF7AM
On Neptune's faith the floating fleet relies; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAJYMcUGQPWM
But what the man forsook, the god supplies, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAXspsUNc0tL
And o'er the dang'rous deep secure the navy flies; 871Please respect copyright.PENANAck79Iiw2QQ
Glides by the Sirens' cliffs, a shelfy coast, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA78u00eUMQf
Long infamous for ships and sailors lost, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAtFFjdH2Rd2
And white with bones. Th' impetuous ocean roars, 871Please respect copyright.PENANArug7Fa5ixU
And rocks rebellow from the sounding shores. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAmV4JC99hPg
The watchful hero felt the knocks, and found 871Please respect copyright.PENANAH7p1pf7Dcp
The tossing vessel sail'd on shoaly ground. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAS9DsS8M5i1
Sure of his pilot's loss, he takes himself 871Please respect copyright.PENANAWfYhvq6Szn
The helm, and steers aloof, and shuns the shelf. 871Please respect copyright.PENANAiAIeEaaxXr
Inly he griev'd, and, groaning from the breast, 871Please respect copyright.PENANAod1gJRytxJ
Deplor'd his death; and thus his pain express'd: 871Please respect copyright.PENANARGJHF7xUmH
"For faith repos'd on seas, and on the flatt'ring sky, 871Please respect copyright.PENANA0U9GbHgMXA
Thy naked corpse is doom'd on shores unknown to lie." 871Please respect copyright.PENANA4QHnX0A4oK
