Meantime the Trojan cuts his wat'ry way, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAwXnqo8INTQ
Fix'd on his voyage, thro' the curling sea; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA0UVEcF5iuv
Then, casting back his eyes, with dire amaze, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAKqZEqcqzYj
Sees on the Punic shore the mounting blaze. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAED3RAy31bl
The cause unknown; yet his presaging mind 901Please respect copyright.PENANATG3WYUMR7W
The fate of Dido from the fire divin'd; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA4rA4rKomVg
He knew the stormy souls of womankind, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAqgxERVgJJN
What secret springs their eager passions move, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAQ1cUUBaOUk
How capable of death for injur'd love. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAG9PJqBZ9G1
Dire auguries from hence the Trojans draw; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAOLaThbMkaF
Till neither fires nor shining shores they saw. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAfBaQjHq0aA
Now seas and skies their prospect only bound; 901Please respect copyright.PENANADA3Ex2bPmU
An empty space above, a floating field around. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAwM3phxg8Sd
But soon the heav'ns with shadows were o'erspread; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAFH8pcMo34E
A swelling cloud hung hov'ring o'er their head: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAijdm8NTjOE
Livid it look'd, the threat'ning of a storm: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAhFqFVt61au
Then night and horror ocean's face deform. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAvVBgIyMbgX
The pilot, Palinurus, cried aloud: 901Please respect copyright.PENANANTrKJvRu8R
"What gusts of weather from that gath'ring cloud 901Please respect copyright.PENANAtSi9sF7Ocu
My thoughts presage! Ere yet the tempest roars, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAmspRI1qq8C
Stand to your tackle, mates, and stretch your oars; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAhPbEDjCkM5
Contract your swelling sails, and luff to wind." 901Please respect copyright.PENANAZOYTCkIyqx
The frighted crew perform the task assign'd. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAMRFT0gGt0N
Then, to his fearless chief: "Not Heav'n," said he, 901Please respect copyright.PENANALEetx2lMpd
"Tho' Jove himself should promise Italy, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAHcR9BE9Ir9
Can stem the torrent of this raging sea. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAvsZ8XV0189
Mark how the shifting winds from west arise, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAGw2BJRd3Oh
And what collected night involves the skies! 901Please respect copyright.PENANA8Dx2KJVQWn
Nor can our shaken vessels live at sea, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAW22y1nUISQ
Much less against the tempest force their way. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAoXO4ITfBVc
'T is fate diverts our course, and fate we must obey. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA1ZVAi36Ea5
Not far from hence, if I observ'd aright 901Please respect copyright.PENANAK6AhrygeVs
The southing of the stars, and polar light, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAyBvSDDpTrP
Sicilia lies, whose hospitable shores 901Please respect copyright.PENANAOl0YaOBaVD
In safety we may reach with struggling oars." 901Please respect copyright.PENANAHPoiS4Dsu8
Aeneas then replied: "Too sure I find 901Please respect copyright.PENANAdjWCPu0J2w
We strive in vain against the seas and wind: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAxIF0bTDaEA
Now shift your sails; what place can please me more 901Please respect copyright.PENANAI9NE4DMeq7
Than what you promise, the Sicilian shore, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA8ODQR1PSiN
Whose hallow'd earth Anchises' bones contains, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAYxYrcC1j3X
And where a prince of Trojan lineage reigns?" 901Please respect copyright.PENANAlc7SxybiJh
The course resolv'd, before the western wind 901Please respect copyright.PENANAC6niBdoPR7
They scud amain, and make the port assign'd. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAEUSx2LiabU
Meantime Acestes, from a lofty stand, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAUrdUvKRWrC
Beheld the fleet descending on the land; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA2cjO4qHyBA
And, not unmindful of his ancient race, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAdJczzZZKlk
Down from the cliff he ran with eager pace, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAjxuFDaTBFe
And held the hero in a strict embrace. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAEPTNt65VRI
Of a rough Libyan bear the spoils he wore, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAKTJ0RPkDoe
And either hand a pointed jav'lin bore. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA90dLV3ib5j
His mother was a dame of Dardan blood; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAeFae8M3Dnn
His sire Crinisus, a Sicilian flood. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAl4fw8ly2aD
He welcomes his returning friends ashore 901Please respect copyright.PENANAndSOVkQ5pZ
With plenteous country cates and homely store. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAd8EMyQBIjn
Now, when the following morn had chas'd away 901Please respect copyright.PENANAoXQr6n0VXF
The flying stars, and light restor'd the day, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAe8dvnRMWBQ
Aeneas call'd the Trojan troops around, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAFHKkL8MS34
And thus bespoke them from a rising ground: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAAdwQisYBnn
"Offspring of heav'n, divine Dardanian race! 901Please respect copyright.PENANAota9rwQ8G2
The sun, revolving thro' th' ethereal space, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA09OPu1LHIt
The shining circle of the year has fill'd, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA5udl1rzFnj
Since first this isle my father's ashes held: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAzeZ4OPGHyy
And now the rising day renews the year; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA7LejWfpG24
A day for ever sad, for ever dear. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAT0bVp86Pdy
This would I celebrate with annual games, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAHtdbrZ1xaW
With gifts on altars pil'd, and holy flames, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAw94zU0YGce
Tho' banish'd to Gaetulia's barren sands, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAIydKbk2N9i
Caught on the Grecian seas, or hostile lands: 901Please respect copyright.PENANALrAS63MVL2
But since this happy storm our fleet has driv'n 901Please respect copyright.PENANASNLxfzKzW8
(Not, as I deem, without the will of Heav'n) 901Please respect copyright.PENANA24cSf1rwiD
Upon these friendly shores and flow'ry plains, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAV97DkDaXPP
Which hide Anchises and his blest remains, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAB5aehPrzn4
Let us with joy perform his honors due, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAOX70w3C7xj
And pray for prosp'rous winds, our voyage to renew; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAi56pbU52x9
Pray, that in towns and temples of our own, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAeU9Rri86iq
The name of great Anchises may be known, 901Please respect copyright.PENANATgdWE2rAoG
And yearly games may spread the gods' renown. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAHYbPHmuH0Q
Our sports Acestes, of the Trojan race, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAg6Z5dYNGuS
With royal gifts ordain'd, is pleas'd to grace: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAyunwqfDLCb
Two steers on ev'ry ship the king bestows; 901Please respect copyright.PENANABjaflrN0bZ
His gods and ours shall share your equal vows. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAch6RB4wEP4
Besides, if, nine days hence, the rosy morn 901Please respect copyright.PENANAZrqbMgVein
Shall with unclouded light the skies adorn, 901Please respect copyright.PENANACVNpgoCqRD
That day with solemn sports I mean to grace: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAb1VfUFSen2
Light galleys on the seas shall run a wat'ry race; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA04te7V0ZOe
Some shall in swiftness for the goal contend, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAuHNkMUtNYg
And others try the twanging bow to bend; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAw3jXHM4DPA
The strong, with iron gauntlets arm'd, shall stand 901Please respect copyright.PENANAuu7WGoKAUf
Oppos'd in combat on the yellow sand. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAuRQF0U5DtB
Let all be present at the games prepar'd, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAgJD4tFBRiG
And joyful victors wait the just reward. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAt5brbaYpaa
But now assist the rites, with garlands crown'd." 901Please respect copyright.PENANAliWtZKcgsx
He said, and first his brows with myrtle bound. 901Please respect copyright.PENANACURo7wS8x8
Then Helymus, by his example led, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAduCxmOZWDt
And old Acestes, each adorn'd his head; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAoLHihA5PDg
Thus young Ascanius, with a sprightly grace, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAmojTGNymgR
His temples tied, and all the Trojan race. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAc3nldLFx8C
Aeneas then advanc'd amidst the train, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAcAUe6qonsU
By thousands follow'd thro' the flow'ry plain, 901Please respect copyright.PENANACNqM5jqFq8
To great Anchises' tomb; which when he found, 901Please respect copyright.PENANASGVoEoBZye
He pour'd to Bacchus, on the hallow'd ground, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA2rBJxrUqad
Two bowls of sparkling wine, of milk two more, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAofTV01djSI
And two (from offer'd bulls) of purple gore, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA03ye3KSJdp
With roses then the sepulcher he strow'd 901Please respect copyright.PENANAFvP70WQKsG
And thus his father's ghost bespoke aloud: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAZDC8RREPvP
"Hail, O ye holy manes! hail again, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAXDXyw65C4g
Paternal ashes, now review'd in vain! 901Please respect copyright.PENANA1cVLLxrdup
The gods permitted not, that you, with me, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAoYdsg6u05W
Should reach the promis'd shores of Italy, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA1xHzvuWdGp
Or Tiber's flood, what flood soe'er it be." 901Please respect copyright.PENANAA7hgv0w83H
Scarce had he finish'd, when, with speckled pride, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAAfUbwXpQ70
A serpent from the tomb began to glide; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA3H5FoCrHBn
His hugy bulk on sev'n high volumes roll'd; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAVcXoDkdB0X
Blue was his breadth of back, but streak'd with scaly gold: 901Please respect copyright.PENANARBYap1u40Y
Thus riding on his curls, he seem'd to pass 901Please respect copyright.PENANAiUKqxVTZEd
A rolling fire along, and singe the grass. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAi0HYl64crv
More various colors thro' his body run, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAsqMrqE0Dst
Than Iris when her bow imbibes the sun. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAD8lMUaA1cR
Betwixt the rising altars, and around, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAm03IBJZKA2
The sacred monster shot along the ground; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAwzcG6kS0OP
With harmless play amidst the bowls he pass'd, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAnZhfanl3Hn
And with his lolling tongue assay'd the taste: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAsSsRHNHeUa
Thus fed with holy food, the wondrous guest 901Please respect copyright.PENANAKD0ybOpUSb
Within the hollow tomb retir'd to rest. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAAVYHpJXGaX
The pious prince, surpris'd at what he view'd, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAUIYXo7Ae6Z
The fun'ral honors with more zeal renew'd, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAD7oNIFeH4Z
Doubtful if this place's genius were, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAjs6SfiSrAv
Or guardian of his father's sepulcher. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA6TO3paxYXs
Five sheep, according to the rites, he slew; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAfG2qLD5oPS
As many swine, and steers of sable hue; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAvtuOviOblz
New gen'rous wine he from the goblets pour'd. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAz2D8AtiqxK
And call'd his father's ghost, from hell restor'd. 901Please respect copyright.PENANApiwEo2S0NS
The glad attendants in long order come, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA4aAYaflEhK
Off'ring their gifts at great Anchises' tomb: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAo8WF17vo5Q
Some add more oxen: some divide the spoil; 901Please respect copyright.PENANASCDGZFycId
Some place the chargers on the grassy soil; 901Please respect copyright.PENANANKbxEbCWGP
Some blow the fires, and off entrails broil. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAsUs6XPCrDu
Now came the day desir'd. The skies were bright 901Please respect copyright.PENANAR7XpNbCyWI
With rosy luster of the rising light: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAGEtZctpDkZ
The bord'ring people, rous'd by sounding fame 901Please respect copyright.PENANA9h6eAMXQPV
Of Trojan feasts and great Acestes' name, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAAvYka6mEea
The crowded shore with acclamations fill, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAbATR7Ym5Sm
Part to behold, and part to prove their skill. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAYSVe5eiHV4
And first the gifts in public view they place, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAKhLAr5E6RS
Green laurel wreaths, and palm, the victors' grace: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAzuJCfsTAUJ
Within the circle, arms and tripods lie, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA9wDC7GhQBS
Ingots of gold and silver, heap'd on high, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAmWPPbHLa4h
And vests embroider'd, of the Tyrian dye. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA8gNE6DVNP0
The trumpet's clangor then the feast proclaims, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAlKdl3LFokC
And all prepare for their appointed games. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAT6iVwhX6xY
Four galleys first, which equal rowers bear, 901Please respect copyright.PENANASQgyz5AK8J
Advancing, in the wat'ry lists appear. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAuxSewj0GS5
The speedy Dolphin, that outstrips the wind, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAYvL7YyuOR6
Bore Mnestheus, author of the Memmian kind: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAjg64KehW92
Gyas the vast Chimaera's bulk commands, 901Please respect copyright.PENANACp5TUmbRMm
Which rising, like a tow'ring city stands; 901Please respect copyright.PENANACLKWPpGDM7
Three Trojans tug at ev'ry lab'ring oar; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA7keObK3L65
Three banks in three degrees the sailors bore; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAecAZXzeR2Y
Beneath their sturdy strokes the billows roar. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAsJOhiU7ErM
Sergesthus, who began the Sergian race, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAXnwJKjpCKt
In the great Centaur took the leading place; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAJbcUski32j
Cloanthus on the sea-green Scylla stood, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA6FFeVQxnDA
From whom Cluentius draws his Trojan blood. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAOK3LxaMxDL
Far in the sea, against the foaming shore, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAYVKG7N0f9l
There stands a rock: the raging billows roar 901Please respect copyright.PENANAGXU256bP3e
Above his head in storms; but, when 't is clear, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA7fJJxWH2hr
Uncurl their ridgy backs, and at his foot appear. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAF1ojfjfwNL
In peace below the gentle waters run; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA1LS9cGeARP
The cormorants above lie basking in the sun. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAWEiPTP132P
On this the hero fix'd an oak in sight, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA3Ps6AM2MP5
The mark to guide the mariners aright. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAVk9TvlVCba
To bear with this, the seamen stretch their oars; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAfkzkUG1hOQ
Then round the rock they steer, and seek the former shores. 901Please respect copyright.PENANArorSsDOkIO
The lots decide their place. Above the rest, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAuquzQVKAOI
Each leader shining in his Tyrian vest; 901Please respect copyright.PENANADJfIxfXj8y
The common crew with wreaths of poplar boughs 901Please respect copyright.PENANAqxFT3EsKez
Their temples crown, and shade their sweaty brows: 901Please respect copyright.PENANApOqPJZJMeq
Besmear'd with oil, their naked shoulders shine. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAtNNhQtNNpE
All take their seats, and wait the sounding sign: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAPlKi2bGHzq
They gripe their oars; and ev'ry panting breast 901Please respect copyright.PENANAeWKOa79TMU
Is rais'd by turns with hope, by turns with fear depress'd. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAtilrdJKR51
The clangor of the trumpet gives the sign; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAuAKGLSW2TW
At once they start, advancing in a line: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAEOm3UVRLa3
With shouts the sailors rend the starry skies; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAjJqaUkSbwJ
Lash'd with their oars, the smoky billows rise; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAvueIJZDzCo
Sparkles the briny main, and the vex'd ocean fries. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA2C5PwyKeCZ
Exact in time, with equal strokes they row: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAoDKrN9C874
At once the brushing oars and brazen prow 901Please respect copyright.PENANAUQH7NkjHzC
Dash up the sandy waves, and ope the depths below. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAQYCSKlqWuj
Not fiery coursers, in a chariot race, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAKLr32wjO0J
Invade the field with half so swift a pace; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAN0gy8KVoIU
Not the fierce driver with more fury lends 901Please respect copyright.PENANAJCOxp7OM7y
The sounding lash, and, ere the stroke descends, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAmBuaqhlWdd
Low to the wheels his pliant body bends. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAnZfh9Ltr1N
The partial crowd their hopes and fears divide, 901Please respect copyright.PENANApgmIARcLNI
And aid with eager shouts the favor'd side. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAyQbDHLB8WX
Cries, murmurs, clamors, with a mixing sound, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAGMM55gF8gL
From woods to woods, from hills to hills rebound. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAOE6SPIRPeh
Amidst the loud applauses of the shore, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAxzJYo45zHf
Gyas outstripp'd the rest, and sprung before: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAi9w4daW9O2
Cloanthus, better mann'd, pursued him fast, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA3SAdkV9Cug
But his o'er-masted galley check'd his haste. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAPhQWL2qr7r
The Centaur and the Dolphin brush the brine 901Please respect copyright.PENANArpU2vxXYuO
With equal oars, advancing in a line; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAq4KoOngYOr
And now the mighty Centaur seems to lead, 901Please respect copyright.PENANALmIOCIQys6
And now the speedy Dolphin gets ahead; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA5hgq9l9cre
Now board to board the rival vessels row, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAvy86dGA5Km
The billows lave the skies, and ocean groans below. 901Please respect copyright.PENANABT4qFWbkzB
They reach'd the mark. Proud Gyas and his train 901Please respect copyright.PENANACodCJcndx3
In triumph rode, the victors of the main; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAmK4D3iXpJN
But, steering round, he charg'd his pilot stand 901Please respect copyright.PENANAZ05UGCN5cR
More close to shore, and skim along the sand- 901Please respect copyright.PENANAMTa5pq5B5j
"Let others bear to sea!" Menoetes heard; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAPKK53CF2Qn
But secret shelves too cautiously he fear'd, 901Please respect copyright.PENANABgroUUxILX
And, fearing, sought the deep; and still aloof he steer'd. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAO8bi3NF4dA
With louder cries the captain call'd again: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAx5TezVSyPx
"Bear to the rocky shore, and shun the main." 901Please respect copyright.PENANAnMbkcfwNsO
He spoke, and, speaking, at his stern he saw 901Please respect copyright.PENANABzR8NgBIfd
The bold Cloanthus near the shelvings draw. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAlO35iDYgCC
Betwixt the mark and him the Scylla stood, 901Please respect copyright.PENANArDMsEMKHju
And in a closer compass plow'd the flood. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAmvggbqZIls
He pass'd the mark; and, wheeling, got before: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAMB7Vo45Ebz
Gyas blasphem'd the gods, devoutly swore, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAY8fDfltvc6
Cried out for anger, and his hair he tore. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAloP8Cw1FYo
Mindless of others' lives (so high was grown 901Please respect copyright.PENANAocb2Zk0q08
His rising rage) and careless of his own, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAV702PYJDgQ
The trembling dotard to the deck he drew; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAOVyM98NCH2
Then hoisted up, and overboard he threw: 901Please respect copyright.PENANALomR7X9aLV
This done, he seiz'd the helm; his fellows cheer'd, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA7ENxjn6bnQ
Turn'd short upon the shelfs, and madly steer'd. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAyXDRihWsdD
Hardly his head the plunging pilot rears, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAy0Fc6Kb0uE
Clogg'd with his clothes, and cumber'd with his years: 901Please respect copyright.PENANANl9nNZh1h0
Now dropping wet, he climbs the cliff with pain. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA2Rnj7EaS5B
The crowd, that saw him fall and float again, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAnIjDb2m0kh
Shout from the distant shore; and loudly laugh'd, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAY4GoTlKIkI
To see his heaving breast disgorge the briny draught. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAUiYV6GIOct
The following Centaur, and the Dolphin's crew, 901Please respect copyright.PENANApJIlYmsAL9
Their vanish'd hopes of victory renew; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAqVH6E8L4y9
While Gyas lags, they kindle in the race, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAgX7oFkYFpu
To reach the mark. Sergesthus takes the place; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA518sElxK6M
Mnestheus pursues; and while around they wind, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAKFps8aExHk
Comes up, not half his galley's length behind; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAOwC9Ch7Exz
Then, on the deck, amidst his mates appear'd, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAIhy4rB4FH9
And thus their drooping courage he cheer'd: 901Please respect copyright.PENANANBu1DXCAsl
"My friends, and Hector's followers heretofore, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAiQU2vuxh1r
Exert your vigor; tug the lab'ring oar; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAXez6i4zUSH
Stretch to your strokes, my still unconquer'd crew, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAqIdWrRC1Lp
Whom from the flaming walls of Troy I drew. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA47ZaRNW2ky
In this, our common int'rest, let me find 901Please respect copyright.PENANAnVYvSI88f1
That strength of hand, that courage of the mind, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA5fK2cicyNE
As when you stemm'd the strong Malean flood, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAcpvPpXTcUF
And o'er the Syrtes' broken billows row'd. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAJTGIAKJdA4
I seek not now the foremost palm to gain; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAioYJLrBsFa
Tho' yet- but, ah! that haughty wish is vain! 901Please respect copyright.PENANAJ1wYGOHlpX
Let those enjoy it whom the gods ordain. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAGj1nZqvq6p
But to be last, the lags of all the race!- 901Please respect copyright.PENANAXjHi977fx4
Redeem yourselves and me from that disgrace." 901Please respect copyright.PENANArzcbfV3PRh
Now, one and all, they tug amain; they row 901Please respect copyright.PENANAqYjuwYgiRm
At the full stretch, and shake the brazen prow. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAts6v5eHIsV
The sea beneath 'em sinks; their lab'ring sides 901Please respect copyright.PENANAvgGxPQJNQL
Are swell'd, and sweat runs gutt'ring down in tides. 901Please respect copyright.PENANACk5dXIl6Cd
Chance aids their daring with unhop'd success; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA5Hk1JlK3Kb
Sergesthus, eager with his beak to press 901Please respect copyright.PENANApYmKIricss
Betwixt the rival galley and the rock, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA9SnuFfO2Ve
Shuts up th' unwieldly Centaur in the lock. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAgFlPgaNlaj
The vessel struck; and, with the dreadful shock, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAqDkqDvokPv
Her oars she shiver'd, and her head she broke. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAwQGFDICCgy
The trembling rowers from their banks arise, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAhK00pqVozG
And, anxious for themselves, renounce the prize. 901Please respect copyright.PENANALNIdOfWHc3
With iron poles they heave her off the shores, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAtcqVpiYdkw
And gather from the sea their floating oars. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAlVtiA5uxSm
The crew of Mnestheus, with elated minds, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAiKIErXutfb
Urge their success, and call the willing winds; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAWgvzFHKYe6
Then ply their oars, and cut their liquid way 901Please respect copyright.PENANARjA2KxfaVZ
In larger compass on the roomy sea. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAkXi88ksJNX
As, when the dove her rocky hold forsakes, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAL7dZHIc0CC
Rous'd in a fright, her sounding wings she shakes; 901Please respect copyright.PENANArsWdZL2KM6
The cavern rings with clatt'ring; out she flies, 901Please respect copyright.PENANATUIBR1a7Ym
And leaves her callow care, and cleaves the skies: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAqCqNoJ7cwT
At first she flutters; but at length she springs 901Please respect copyright.PENANAZEMUd3OwPR
To smoother flight, and shoots upon her wings: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAoxtrq7gO0o
So Mnestheus in the Dolphin cuts the sea; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAzIgyLDZrUr
And, flying with a force, that force assists his way. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAD1rdKMWzrS
Sergesthus in the Centaur soon he pass'd, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA1wg3FjNsWW
Wedg'd in the rocky shoals, and sticking fast. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAfdvB811kNm
In vain the victor he with cries implores, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAnFhU3a5yh1
And practices to row with shatter'd oars. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAEfN387PjAk
Then Mnestheus bears with Gyas, and outflies: 901Please respect copyright.PENANA5Dmk7l9LrE
The ship, without a pilot, yields the prize. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAUA32ZIflWt
Unvanquish'd Scylla now alone remains; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA5OGIHajVJJ
Her he pursues, and all his vigor strains. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAveTisbdqXb
Shouts from the fav'ring multitude arise; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAMKieD0b70T
Applauding Echo to the shouts replies; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAJp7zAFONUf
Shouts, wishes, and applause run rattling thro' the skies. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA7guvePDbb9
These clamors with disdain the Scylla heard, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAsSWy0OfKn8
Much grudg'd the praise, but more the robb'd reward: 901Please respect copyright.PENANASBBOCWgZOh
Resolv'd to hold their own, they mend their pace, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAfeKwBZEye1
All obstinate to die, or gain the race. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAg2pKQl7uiH
Rais'd with success, the Dolphin swiftly ran; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA4UpcELw4Ov
For they can conquer, who believe they can. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA3at8dhlpAy
Both urge their oars, and fortune both supplies, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAWBCTuNLfSC
And both perhaps had shar'd an equal prize; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAneTJLz8Psi
When to the seas Cloanthus holds his hands, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA5aaujPY8sJ
And succor from the wat'ry pow'rs demands: 901Please respect copyright.PENANA2bhsbNO3D6
"Gods of the liquid realms, on which I row! 901Please respect copyright.PENANAjmKvuILTwh
If, giv'n by you, the laurel bind my brow, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAmaZxtSF0wE
Assist to make me guilty of my vow! 901Please respect copyright.PENANAAuQ0wOetjY
A snow-white bull shall on your shore be slain; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAlq2BpDTekx
His offer'd entrails cast into the main, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA0AGRhIzXK0
And ruddy wine, from golden goblets thrown, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAfD8WuEi1Uh
Your grateful gift and my return shall own." 901Please respect copyright.PENANAxv2qIr0Wn3
The choir of nymphs, and Phorcus, from below, 901Please respect copyright.PENANApyLmRmABUE
With virgin Panopea, heard his vow; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAEy8Dp75iRs
And old Portunus, with his breadth of hand, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA3bstZvBDv7
Push'd on, and sped the galley to the land. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA005kVCeoDr
Swift as a shaft, or winged wind, she flies, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAk0cnnGBG5a
And, darting to the port, obtains the prize. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAhWCRO8FkT4
The herald summons all, and then proclaims 901Please respect copyright.PENANAexERuvyIct
Cloanthus conqu'ror of the naval games. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA62dhJP7J5R
The prince with laurel crowns the victor's head, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAOKUXzwitd6
And three fat steers are to his vessel led, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAKSVab563tC
The ship's reward; with gen'rous wine beside, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAyEbXrFzmQC
And sums of silver, which the crew divide. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA90tXrHSmjQ
The leaders are distinguish'd from the rest; 901Please respect copyright.PENANATj3CE4alhr
The victor honor'd with a nobler vest, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAuDXr4xdScv
Where gold and purple strive in equal rows, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA5gFrKPmvsR
And needlework its happy cost bestows. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAo876UOuzIJ
There Ganymede is wrought with living art, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAU61VZqFdxB
Chasing thro' Ida's groves the trembling hart: 901Please respect copyright.PENANA3spiLomDEX
Breathless he seems, yet eager to pursue; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA2VtqZcFPJC
When from aloft descends, in open view, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA3MPwFtJF5e
The bird of Jove, and, sousing on his prey, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAuvrvcXBQTc
With crooked talons bears the boy away. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAIW0iuqRLKO
In vain, with lifted hands and gazing eyes, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAk6kROIQ5xU
His guards behold him soaring thro' the skies, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAM0K0dkrV3F
And dogs pursue his flight with imitated cries. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA9IRzzzAulV
Mnestheus the second victor was declar'd; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAYCRewZnzPG
And, summon'd there, the second prize he shard. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA1Fdeg5r9di
A coat of mail, brave Demoleus bore, 901Please respect copyright.PENANALb2ajuJ63R
More brave Aeneas from his shoulders tore, 901Please respect copyright.PENANASI3GLdZoc1
In single combat on the Trojan shore: 901Please respect copyright.PENANApRAR2Vpygy
This was ordain'd for Mnestheus to possess; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAoIOWfECBD9
In war for his defense, for ornament in peace. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA18blzSN2bm
Rich was the gift, and glorious to behold, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA84J0Rzm9iu
But yet so pond'rous with its plates of gold, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAlByG9hkncQ
That scarce two servants could the weight sustain; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAKBCEotM8as
Yet, loaded thus, Demoleus o'er the plain 901Please respect copyright.PENANAywLEfgIPes
Pursued and lightly seiz'd the Trojan train. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAOHwVuAm3I4
The third, succeeding to the last reward, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA1bvEFo8yUq
Two goodly bowls of massy silver shar'd, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA1jDTveer4M
With figures prominent, and richly wrought, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA5VVQ697U0F
And two brass caldrons from Dodona brought. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAxzSpDKUsY9
Thus all, rewarded by the hero's hands, 901Please respect copyright.PENANARE1mgH7MeL
Their conqu'ring temples bound with purple bands; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAPc7ubUNsTL
And now Sergesthus, clearing from the rock, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAyQPjUqrPi3
Brought back his galley shatter'd with the shock. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAYBozXSPbe6
Forlorn she look'd, without an aiding oar, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAEVNq47NxUw
And, houted by the vulgar, made to shore. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAGksST4dYXa
As when a snake, surpris'd upon the road, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAaixxkLrfGu
Is crush'd athwart her body by the load 901Please respect copyright.PENANAXSZxHxDDRw
Of heavy wheels; or with a mortal wound 901Please respect copyright.PENANAxcebOl9CLQ
Her belly bruis'd, and trodden to the ground: 901Please respect copyright.PENANA5i9MypF8HT
In vain, with loosen'd curls, she crawls along; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA4TVqH8wJ76
Yet, fierce above, she brandishes her tongue; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAlnkXA7Ol4d
Glares with her eyes, and bristles with her scales; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA67NydbRHSP
But, groveling in the dust, her parts unsound she trails: 901Please respect copyright.PENANA0Me1E8vQVK
So slowly to the port the Centaur tends, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAg3u7UEMqe9
But, what she wants in oars, with sails amends. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAyRLBbt53gm
Yet, for his galley sav'd, the grateful prince 901Please respect copyright.PENANAxO0XmQ1mWP
Is pleas'd th' unhappy chief to recompense. 901Please respect copyright.PENANANWalcCeWG6
Pholoe, the Cretan slave, rewards his care, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAGHDU1N5Heg
Beauteous herself, with lovely twins as fair. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA3KQkqOBIyc
From thence his way the Trojan hero bent 901Please respect copyright.PENANAtTT7TyGz4C
Into the neighb'ring plain, with mountains pent, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAaEtmykMa5S
Whose sides were shaded with surrounding wood. 901Please respect copyright.PENANABBusduDB7n
Full in the midst of this fair valley stood 901Please respect copyright.PENANAeYVHxXlOit
A native theater, which, rising slow 901Please respect copyright.PENANA5F2Wv4H7YS
By just degrees, o'erlook'd the ground below. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAo98yjeBetQ
High on a sylvan throne the leader sate; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAXqV1CgGJMd
A num'rous train attend in solemn state. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAjDHLvQgrAr
Here those that in the rapid course delight, 901Please respect copyright.PENANADlofDsBuDD
Desire of honor and the prize invite. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAXTQK4BuNyD
The rival runners without order stand; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAzGJ4hDU5k8
The Trojans mix'd with the Sicilian band. 901Please respect copyright.PENANALKSgftAoVy
First Nisus, with Euryalus, appears; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAhFBpeUgpzO
Euryalus a boy of blooming years, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAnlKPXBaCXe
With sprightly grace and equal beauty crown'd; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAyK0RyU635w
Nisus, for friendship to the youth renown'd. 901Please respect copyright.PENANABEQI7ona7V
Diores next, of Priam's royal race, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAuFyhcdyVy8
Then Salius joined with Patron, took their place; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAz3rTl3RWaq
(But Patron in Arcadia had his birth, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAD0NFv9wsGY
And Salius his from Arcananian earth;) 901Please respect copyright.PENANAvw4wqjwXid
Then two Sicilian youths- the names of these, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAd2nfQvMkaN
Swift Helymus, and lovely Panopes: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAXZeSBiZN1I
Both jolly huntsmen, both in forest bred, 901Please respect copyright.PENANArjKPswuLls
And owning old Acestes for their head; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA5EkYdHShg2
With sev'ral others of ignobler name, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAUGUP9z5VP3
Whom time has not deliver'd o'er to fame. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAu1g86FeZnE
To these the hero thus his thoughts explain'd, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAZdQgjM3TLC
In words which gen'ral approbation gain'd: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAEA7tDz7yoU
"One common largess is for all design'd, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAy0uTzLxUNb
(The vanquish'd and the victor shall be join'd,) 901Please respect copyright.PENANACqc41wOn2Y
Two darts of polish'd steel and Gnosian wood, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAx99MOTPtu9
A silver-studded ax, alike bestow'd. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAwy5JQ1dQ92
The foremost three have olive wreaths decreed: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAjmZOYbiYAj
The first of these obtains a stately steed, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAaFgdgzLsx7
Adorn'd with trappings; and the next in fame, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAJLfDQg224d
The quiver of an Amazonian dame, 901Please respect copyright.PENANATmlNwVCHQk
With feather'd Thracian arrows well supplied: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAHOJyLu4Bpe
A golden belt shall gird his manly side, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA9h256eNo2q
Which with a sparkling diamond shall be tied. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAWbvNrEQ32R
The third this Grecian helmet shall content." 901Please respect copyright.PENANApwNyCGAssc
He said. To their appointed base they went; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAcuAx3rdSjj
With beating hearts th' expected sign receive, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAMRSnDpptIv
And, starting all at once, the barrier leave. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA5NJ6LGZtx7
Spread out, as on the winged winds, they flew, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAkdzNTqirRq
And seiz'd the distant goal with greedy view. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA1Hxna4wQxu
Shot from the crowd, swift Nisus all o'erpass'd; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAp8RZVsnqIh
Nor storms, nor thunder, equal half his haste. 901Please respect copyright.PENANApqV4tZmNL9
The next, but tho' the next, yet far disjoin'd, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA6EOvRdv7gV
Came Salius, and Euryalus behind; 901Please respect copyright.PENANANQUO46RIGo
Then Helymus, whom young Diores plied, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAgAo0dCeu2g
Step after step, and almost side by side, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAc0Wi1H9pfD
His shoulders pressing; and, in longer space, 901Please respect copyright.PENANASVHup05OFR
Had won, or left at least a dubious race. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAvLWTx9UU3S
Now, spent, the goal they almost reach at last, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAeue3qpsZ6k
When eager Nisus, hapless in his haste, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAHt1Rp9S1BI
Slipp'd first, and, slipping, fell upon the plain, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAtcSWbiIxrs
Soak'd with the blood of oxen newly slain. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAjZdwXf4ucs
The careless victor had not mark'd his way; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAwgiBXmXBPz
But, treading where the treach'rous puddle lay, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA43nrMVZu1Z
His heels flew up; and on the grassy floor 901Please respect copyright.PENANATIXY8YvGS7
He fell, besmear'd with filth and holy gore. 901Please respect copyright.PENANADvZtgQyRLK
Not mindless then, Euryalus, of thee, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAIrRI9lOd6N
Nor of the sacred bonds of amity, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA5Z7yVyA8WW
He strove th' immediate rival's hope to cross, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAz0OXZXG2WO
And caught the foot of Salius as he rose. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAmrBf0YonAH
So Salius lay extended on the plain; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAUyevQou2Y2
Euryalus springs out, the prize to gain, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAc2FwYzLwWk
And leaves the crowd: applauding peals attend 901Please respect copyright.PENANAvz4vjL1p75
The victor to the goal, who vanquish'd by his friend. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAgAlj3jIu1z
Next Helymus; and then Diores came, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAVIrNenIR30
By two misfortunes made the third in fame. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAyY89pX5sxZ
But Salius enters, and, exclaiming loud 901Please respect copyright.PENANA6KUxzIK1Ia
For justice, deafens and disturbs the crowd; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAMSgXo37FFp
Urges his cause may in the court be heard; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAYdl4LZXAM7
And pleads the prize is wrongfully conferr'd. 901Please respect copyright.PENANABeAj73OhYU
But favor for Euryalus appears; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA8zJC8e6wtl
His blooming beauty, with his tender tears, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAnxXlnpeylC
Had brib'd the judges for the promis'd prize. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAem40QjrPcq
Besides, Diores fills the court with cries, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAIoqhOUndKd
Who vainly reaches at the last reward, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA5KxB8XBxPw
If the first palm on Salius be conferr'd. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAwo4ksNDPub
Then thus the prince: "Let no disputes arise: 901Please respect copyright.PENANA5nrUlC2HIb
Where fortune plac'd it, I award the prize. 901Please respect copyright.PENANACQvhsXlEd0
But fortune's errors give me leave to mend, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAwPvEtXFAZ7
At least to pity my deserving friend." 901Please respect copyright.PENANA6ba0MHKIfx
He said, and, from among the spoils, he draws 901Please respect copyright.PENANAslBCyHXEYM
(Pond'rous with shaggy mane and golden paws) 901Please respect copyright.PENANAdMSol8vjQd
A lion's hide: to Salius this he gives. 901Please respect copyright.PENANArklLlibazG
Nisus with envy sees the gift, and grieves. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAvTZhZCnVG5
"If such rewards to vanquish'd men are due." 901Please respect copyright.PENANAtcngelsE3U
He said, "and falling is to rise by you, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAc1iQg7dl7W
What prize may Nisus from your bounty claim, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAy9oMHgnB3l
Who merited the first rewards and fame? 901Please respect copyright.PENANAeIk0ZmZqfU
In falling, both an equal fortune tried; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAiRjYAFZN3R
Would fortune for my fall so well provide!" 901Please respect copyright.PENANArLlooUJR2x
With this he pointed to his face, and show'd 901Please respect copyright.PENANAWQVtGVvBnz
His hand and all his habit smear'd with blood. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAjZpmog9G6J
Th' indulgent father of the people smil'd, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAUlFVwLteZx
And caus'd to be produc'd an ample shield, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAf8lt5o9KQP
Of wondrous art, by Didymaon wrought, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAJI1nstVEM7
Long since from Neptune's bars in triumph brought. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAU3Qx6c9bkL
This giv'n to Nisus, he divides the rest, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAcsK9hzvmBS
And equal justice in his gifts express'd. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAiUwkRYS9XP
The race thus ended, and rewards bestow'd, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAGtmmgmzF3c
Once more the princes bespeaks th' attentive crowd: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAQlLDUqF5wa
"If there he here whose dauntless courage dare 901Please respect copyright.PENANA32PEZOrQTg
In gauntlet-fight, with limbs and body bare, 901Please respect copyright.PENANANBCEWWDASV
His opposite sustain in open view, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAoYPIfGaOHM
Stand forth the champion, and the games renew. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAUHCbuln2pW
Two prizes I propose, and thus divide: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAAe5NCnFQDg
A bull with gilded horns, and fillets tied, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA6gxohVwBxy
Shall be the portion of the conqu'ring chief; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAmH3LWwbVBf
A sword and helm shall cheer the loser's grief." 901Please respect copyright.PENANAOexnuMD3ww
Then haughty Dares in the lists appears; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAWbZcj6uGYt
Stalking he strides, his head erected bears: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAEkxIGLTmbG
His nervous arms the weighty gauntlet wield, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAg3lYEP66w7
And loud applauses echo thro' the field. 901Please respect copyright.PENANARzZyMUGuFq
Dares alone in combat us'd to stand 901Please respect copyright.PENANAHq4rD3Hy6o
The match of mighty Paris, hand to hand; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAxEpag1kfOX
The same, at Hector's fun'rals, undertook 901Please respect copyright.PENANA2tXXFepY30
Gigantic Butes, of th' Amycian stock, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAWE3LgVAlCz
And, by the stroke of his resistless hand, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAajV9mDsuK1
Stretch'd the vast bulk upon the yellow sand. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAQ4MLpHMIg7
Such Dares was; and such he strode along, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAvhYDR9nyJF
And drew the wonder of the gazing throng. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAWyGpy2uiCo
His brawny back and ample breast he shows, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAIu9wOYvPvj
His lifted arms around his head he throws, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAYiSk3Xs6xZ
And deals in whistling air his empty blows. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAeNDsNoLAIp
His match is sought; but, thro' the trembling band, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAOhRt4bQLKa
Not one dares answer to the proud demand. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA72vveMypNt
Presuming of his force, with sparkling eyes 901Please respect copyright.PENANApDdfjZpYH5
Already he devours the promis'd prize. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAhy07qd3d40
He claims the bull with awless insolence, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAPeWwyjbBvM
And having seiz'd his horns, accosts the prince: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAWWG0naZ9nk
"If none my matchless valor dares oppose, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAXiihCALzum
How long shall Dares wait his dastard foes? 901Please respect copyright.PENANAoCLVEuPv0O
Permit me, chief, permit without delay, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAR6Y13n10ub
To lead this uncontended gift away." 901Please respect copyright.PENANA8UBlIc7d3f
The crowd assents, and with redoubled cries 901Please respect copyright.PENANABnr7iRM8lp
For the proud challenger demands the prize. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAnOz0XXXOy2
Acestes, fir'd with just disdain, to see 901Please respect copyright.PENANAByI8EeVZlz
The palm usurp'd without a victory, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAM666IGMeUn
Reproach'd Entellus thus, who sate beside, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAYZDi0Vyn5w
And heard and saw, unmov'd, the Trojan's pride: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAhUH8fZhVIv
"Once, but in vain, a champion of renown, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA29fuwJGAtC
So tamely can you bear the ravish'd crown, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA5EMvyso5kt
A prize in triumph borne before your sight, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA4S4IipIJ3u
And shun, for fear, the danger of the fight? 901Please respect copyright.PENANAa3Nn3kvKmV
Where is our Eryx now, the boasted name, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAdCmGsaIpMz
The god who taught your thund'ring arm the game? 901Please respect copyright.PENANAABO1ME0SSL
Where now your baffled honor? Where the spoil 901Please respect copyright.PENANA9Yb9RjQCrG
That fill'd your house, and fame that fill'd our isle?" 901Please respect copyright.PENANArEtfUwWEth
Entellus, thus: "My soul is still the same, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAmPOZGKfJG2
Unmov'd with fear, and mov'd with martial fame; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAuqwzOhHehD
But my chill blood is curdled in my veins, 901Please respect copyright.PENANARtlroLJBJq
And scarce the shadow of a man remains. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAdHZyrHf161
O could I turn to that fair prime again, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA6NNrhs7zfy
That prime of which this boaster is so vain, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAtWBWtUEiXu
The brave, who this decrepid age defies, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA2CO1Q1R1pN
Should feel my force, without the promis'd prize." 901Please respect copyright.PENANAW1ExA2ByHV
He said; and, rising at the word, he threw 901Please respect copyright.PENANAdqYT0WqJyl
Two pond'rous gauntlets down in open view; 901Please respect copyright.PENANATCs4bth6eq
Gauntlets which Eryx wont in fight to wield, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAFUiAncAc9M
And sheathe his hands with in the listed field. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAZ3YthVYJrT
With fear and wonder seiz'd, the crowd beholds 901Please respect copyright.PENANA4G6b89D8YS
The gloves of death, with sev'n distinguish'd folds 901Please respect copyright.PENANA61IvGBOfqP
Of tough bull hides; the space within is spread 901Please respect copyright.PENANAXuuPUYuHnw
With iron, or with loads of heavy lead: 901Please respect copyright.PENANA0GYMo4SBCF
Dares himself was daunted at the sight, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAW6WgKXqqTJ
Renounc'd his challenge, and refus'd to fight. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAeiybanXUxh
Astonish'd at their weight, the hero stands, 901Please respect copyright.PENANABVbPaJDWeD
And pois'd the pond'rous engines in his hands. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAJovcV60TgC
"What had your wonder," said Entellus, "been, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAWRvBcQ6mmg
Had you the gauntlets of Alcides seen, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAFIhN886QYe
Or view'd the stern debate on this unhappy green! 901Please respect copyright.PENANAsvZTcM9kFJ
These which I bear your brother Eryx bore, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAIKss7pzMeJ
Still mark'd with batter'd brains and mingled gore. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAgHpHlwuqFE
With these he long sustain'd th' Herculean arm; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA5F8ob4Um69
And these I wielded while my blood was warm, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAF0R3yQhs5v
This languish'd frame while better spirits fed, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAgFcnd5CbZG
Ere age unstrung my nerves, or time o'ersnow'd my head. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAooqjq0BIM9
But if the challenger these arms refuse, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAQBn6VcO6XT
And cannot wield their weight, or dare not use; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA4LHNyV0Kfj
If great Aeneas and Acestes join 901Please respect copyright.PENANAXtvoy71x4i
In his request, these gauntlets I resign; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAkjdk3TDGiY
Let us with equal arms perform the fight, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA4A1pO2iENM
And let him leave to fear, since I resign my right." 901Please respect copyright.PENANAJO7GQvSjNe
This said, Entellus for the strife prepares; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAvp35YvllWq
Stripp'd of his quilted coat, his body bares; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAfW6bPcB8Ab
Compos'd of mighty bones and brawn he stands, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAz0dn1rxdsB
A goodly tow'ring object on the sands. 901Please respect copyright.PENANADSJ3yLYgIP
Then just Aeneas equal arms supplied, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAalVRPSxghE
Which round their shoulders to their wrists they tied. 901Please respect copyright.PENANADHHRBqjKi3
Both on the tiptoe stand, at full extent, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA3BPIuVfSoG
Their arms aloft, their bodies inly bent; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA7w4fcWhNZ3
Their heads from aiming blows they bear afar; 901Please respect copyright.PENANArzGsLjLlDT
With clashing gauntlets then provoke the war. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAUDXPdTFIB7
One on his youth and pliant limbs relies; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA3d0njRXBQU
One on his sinews and his giant size. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAKItLGiK4Ay
The last is stiff with age, his motion slow; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAbzNNz4Ta6n
He heaves for breath, he staggers to and fro, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA6ccqkn9Gwh
And clouds of issuing smoke his nostrils loudly blow. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAMqhKZ1sEkn
Yet equal in success, they ward, they strike; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAZVB79YTUIO
Their ways are diff'rent, but their art alike. 901Please respect copyright.PENANABnUwUPt0uh
Before, behind, the blows are dealt; around 901Please respect copyright.PENANAc7bij834KS
Their hollow sides the rattling thumps resound. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA7aHpDopPuG
A storm of strokes, well meant, with fury flies, 901Please respect copyright.PENANANCcWIUAUbj
And errs about their temples, ears, and eyes. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAB5x0ynx9ip
Nor always errs; for oft the gauntlet draws 901Please respect copyright.PENANAi94qQEQqbF
A sweeping stroke along the crackling jaws. 901Please respect copyright.PENANASwglUZs4y1
Heavy with age, Entellus stands his ground, 901Please respect copyright.PENANACpY89s3Hwq
But with his warping body wards the wound. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAwyBlXwc4ob
His hand and watchful eye keep even pace; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAgdMHhNpMTa
While Dares traverses and shifts his place, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAWY1WWWwCcQ
And, like a captain who beleaguers round 901Please respect copyright.PENANAlBg0QpRThd
Some strong-built castle on a rising ground, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAVKakK9OoOb
Views all th' approaches with observing eyes: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAXChiXHDfRK
This and that other part in vain he tries, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAC7fy0pC6yB
And more on industry than force relies. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAhhElYLyK1T
With hands on high, Entellus threats the foe; 901Please respect copyright.PENANANGLzRKxd6E
But Dares watch'd the motion from below, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA20yKMCZdDD
And slipp'd aside, and shunn'd the long descending blow. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA4jrCMQlzDW
Entellus wastes his forces on the wind, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA54gz9qdCYS
And, thus deluded of the stroke design'd, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAexJ6pk0eTL
Headlong and heavy fell; his ample breast 901Please respect copyright.PENANA9Vl1vpv78r
And weighty limbs his ancient mother press'd. 901Please respect copyright.PENANALHfypY8JMA
So falls a hollow pine, that long had stood 901Please respect copyright.PENANAjl2bPdqoG0
On Ida's height, or Erymanthus' wood, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAxt3TII6TC7
Torn from the roots. The diff'ring nations rise, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAtHD6JmgcUY
And shouts and mingled murmurs rend the skies, 901Please respect copyright.PENANALgkdzPdeUn
Acestus runs with eager haste, to raise 901Please respect copyright.PENANAa55imdf7HS
The fall'n companion of his youthful days. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAENJtjheKgK
Dauntless he rose, and to the fight return'd; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAUfbIWROLbo
With shame his glowing cheeks, his eyes with fury burn'd. 901Please respect copyright.PENANABnhZyuuEU0
Disdain and conscious virtue fir'd his breast, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAabp1u3HYIO
And with redoubled force his foe he press'd. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAniuhHbkqbL
He lays on load with either hand, amain, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA8Op8anG12p
And headlong drives the Trojan o'er the plain; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAktB5AyIJNW
Nor stops, nor stays; nor rest nor breath allows; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAb8jERWEB1O
But storms of strokes descend about his brows, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAoYDnmj9shm
A rattling tempest, and a hail of blows. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAhQpeTQvZlK
But now the prince, who saw the wild increase 901Please respect copyright.PENANAwIrDqdcvvf
Of wounds, commands the combatants to cease, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAjfxrs3C3Bo
And bounds Entellus' wrath, and bids the peace. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAWmpsLS7ZyY
First to the Trojan, spent with toil, he came, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA0tWe31ITPU
And sooth'd his sorrow for the suffer'd shame. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA7Zt1vk98H3
"What fury seiz'd my friend? The gods," said he, 901Please respect copyright.PENANARomqSUDhdB
"To him propitious, and averse to thee, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA4sha44TU75
Have giv'n his arm superior force to thine. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAWBFptOLPY2
'T is madness to contend with strength divine." 901Please respect copyright.PENANAWhSb1hqb9U
The gauntlet fight thus ended, from the shore 901Please respect copyright.PENANA8cMwkkPZBy
His faithful friends unhappy Dares bore: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAUwc14CSdCC
His mouth and nostrils pour'd a purple flood, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAFjUKMsalAb
And pounded teeth came rushing with his blood. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA59kwPAw5ef
Faintly he stagger'd thro' the hissing throng, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAydNXYPnuEA
And hung his head, and trail'd his legs along. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAaxhtLzv7LD
The sword and casque are carried by his train; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAKfHr6fV5XA
But with his foe the palm and ox remain. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA3QuYuE3TLh
The champion, then, before Aeneas came, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAd4sJqjKBe0
Proud of his prize, but prouder of his fame: 901Please respect copyright.PENANA7NQquIP93e
"O goddess-born, and you, Dardanian host, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAJT55ViUTYz
Mark with attention, and forgive my boast; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAEOyJF8Jc6U
Learn what I was, by what remains; and know 901Please respect copyright.PENANAoG0Zc1ENwU
From what impending fate you sav'd my foe." 901Please respect copyright.PENANAJvHaTLnmui
Sternly he spoke, and then confronts the bull; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAbn6qqbVwpI
And, on his ample forehead aiming full, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAqyP98dbsFn
The deadly stroke, descending, pierc'd the skull. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAAa3di4isUi
Down drops the beast, nor needs a second wound, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAoS1kRqzze6
But sprawls in pangs of death, and spurns the ground. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAAIg9fXS73H
Then, thus: "In Dares' stead I offer this. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAAN9nUuRRzU
Eryx, accept a nobler sacrifice; 901Please respect copyright.PENANANLJxAhz9dr
Take the last gift my wither'd arms can yield: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAvomh3Nvaaf
Thy gauntlets I resign, and here renounce the field." 901Please respect copyright.PENANALJfWRGeyqD
This done, Aeneas orders, for the close, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAFziu8rqGR9
The strife of archers with contending bows. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAC00Kaw0CEy
The mast Sergesthus' shatter'd galley bore 901Please respect copyright.PENANAw6yDtQxf6n
With his own hands he raises on the shore. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAi601ghJX3j
A flutt'ring dove upon the top they tie, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAKq4FiKQ5hy
The living mark at which their arrows fly. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAJYbDR03cao
The rival archers in a line advance, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAc1ODLdSX8u
Their turn of shooting to receive from chance. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAHSElWleUZv
A helmet holds their names; the lots are drawn: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAPyGAqqyN2D
On the first scroll was read Hippocoon. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAY7DUyIBrPs
The people shout. Upon the next was found 901Please respect copyright.PENANANV5BaP3ckY
Young Mnestheus, late with naval honors crown'd. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA3m92diCGeV
The third contain'd Eurytion's noble name, 901Please respect copyright.PENANArJtDw9sdaj
Thy brother, Pandarus, and next in fame, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAs2poWypVCg
Whom Pallas urg'd the treaty to confound, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAKlFvSfRGfx
And send among the Greeks a feather'd wound. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA1WByO7zm4O
Acestes in the bottom last remain'd, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAcLCfQjbQ2G
Whom not his age from youthful sports restrain'd. 901Please respect copyright.PENANASHwu3XWxHb
Soon all with vigor bend their trusty bows, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAfdSAwKlV9L
And from the quiver each his arrow chose. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA58ERlLhyPs
Hippocoon's was the first: with forceful sway 901Please respect copyright.PENANAM4E0MQ3rYw
It flew, and, whizzing, cut the liquid way. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA2DeNtUvaBk
Fix'd in the mast the feather'd weapon stands: 901Please respect copyright.PENANA2TePb7tTzW
The fearful pigeon flutters in her bands, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAlZYlK8MMgW
And the tree trembled, and the shouting cries 901Please respect copyright.PENANAKcTln4fsr0
Of the pleas'd people rend the vaulted skies. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAsqaHwh1MIc
Then Mnestheus to the head his arrow drove, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAuVTovPjg1H
With lifted eyes, and took his aim above, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAJx2rvNLL96
But made a glancing shot, and missed the dove; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAgBffM1FqbE
Yet miss'd so narrow, that he cut the cord 901Please respect copyright.PENANA8f6nUCFEaF
Which fasten'd by the foot the flitting bird. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAYcu5ablg8g
The captive thus releas'd, away she flies, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAPrYOV0I3Yu
And beats with clapping wings the yielding skies. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA0TMNGJfEA7
His bow already bent, Eurytion stood; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAJVVGOTjJmn
And, having first invok'd his brother god, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAaQRZ7CML6O
His winged shaft with eager haste he sped. 901Please respect copyright.PENANARnHf1NYGS4
The fatal message reach'd her as she fled: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAKj8OrNaktb
She leaves her life aloft; she strikes the ground, 901Please respect copyright.PENANARsjOUeNPS7
And renders back the weapon in the wound. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA6cH1F5C2UM
Acestes, grudging at his lot, remains, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA4wtlKwyAKk
Without a prize to gratify his pains. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAIg6vDKCsSo
Yet, shooting upward, sends his shaft, to show 901Please respect copyright.PENANA09qs7jnUnw
An archer's art, and boast his twanging bow. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAFRAy9zGS7J
The feather'd arrow gave a dire portent, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAXuZSe2A8AC
And latter augurs judge from this event. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAf48p5e6MiG
Chaf'd by the speed, it fir'd; and, as it flew, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAl7Xg2hi5tF
A trail of following flames ascending drew: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAGUofOJDqk1
Kindling they mount, and mark the shiny way; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAxn5DBQFwrZ
Across the skies as falling meteors play, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAcsQSRVqvmH
And vanish into wind, or in a blaze decay. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAj4q99VgT7N
The Trojans and Sicilians wildly stare, 901Please respect copyright.PENANApkwroHEzgG
And, trembling, turn their wonder into pray'r. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAanyymm9PzN
The Dardan prince put on a smiling face, 901Please respect copyright.PENANArWtkke3Dn1
And strain'd Acestes with a close embrace; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAoSYzleK5SZ
Then, hon'ring him with gifts above the rest, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAeC6uuvxXVX
Turn'd the bad omen, nor his fears confess'd. 901Please respect copyright.PENANARoIHhro2Wn
"The gods," said he, "this miracle have wrought, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAZ5AOz0EXEz
And order'd you the prize without the lot. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAOsfVMM2giy
Accept this goblet, rough with figur'd gold, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA4GVFs3c3Fx
Which Thracian Cisseus gave my sire of old: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAjh1PccbqjT
This pledge of ancient amity receive, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAyknT9zy5Y7
Which to my second sire I justly give." 901Please respect copyright.PENANAIy01EbZORn
He said, and, with the trumpets' cheerful sound, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAGc0cdW08kt
Proclaim'd him victor, and with laurel-crown'd. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAm64ZPIvOdz
Nor good Eurytion envied him the prize, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAuEIqOQcYKe
Tho' he transfix'd the pigeon in the skies. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAebg8I1vN7M
Who cut the line, with second gifts was grac'd; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAMIi934invy
The third was his whose arrow pierc'd the mast. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAqBdL7zZMfm
The chief, before the games were wholly done, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAAQIHzoS7ze
Call'd Periphantes, tutor to his son, 901Please respect copyright.PENANABRxnTfpDRx
And whisper'd thus: "With speed Ascanius find; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA3ZJ690cEa5
And, if his childish troop be ready join'd, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAeHmLxZuUWK
On horseback let him grace his grandsire's day, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAztbETId2WL
And lead his equals arm'd in just array." 901Please respect copyright.PENANACPhUfxeGq0
He said; and, calling out, the cirque he clears. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA46kni9YWpd
The crowd withdrawn, an open plain appears. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA4eOuNr9gMj
And now the noble youths, of form divine, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA607yafEygW
Advance before their fathers, in a line; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA9wZVebk6Zs
The riders grace the steeds; the steeds with glory shine. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAUKLKQFQLmq
Thus marching on in military pride, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAKs0sh6YV7A
Shouts of applause resound from side to side. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAb7D5y679M5
Their casques adorn'd with laurel wreaths they wear, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA1bfJ5pcGJH
Each brandishing aloft a cornel spear. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA7ZffuXFotl
Some at their backs their gilded quivers bore; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAE9NQ8XkTl9
Their chains of burnish'd gold hung down before. 901Please respect copyright.PENANATkYEwUM9an
Three graceful troops they form'd upon the green; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA9gMkhDStK0
Three graceful leaders at their head were seen; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA9kdX4fT58x
Twelve follow'd ev'ry chief, and left a space between. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA6klvbRatZ5
The first young Priam led; a lovely boy, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAX1iMMysKDk
Whose grandsire was th' unhappy king of Troy; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAMT3b6f8qFS
His race in after times was known to fame, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA57UvYUrPsl
New honors adding to the Latian name; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA2B9xK9w08t
And well the royal boy his Thracian steed became. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAqVE9RUqaCy
White were the fetlocks of his feet before, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAOV0V8cTVsr
And on his front a snowy star he bore. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAs55Bm4LPW6
Then beauteous Atys, with Iulus bred, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAYwFxl4sFg3
Of equal age, the second squadron led. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA4xANhJurZN
The last in order, but the first in place, 901Please respect copyright.PENANASGARZlo43k
First in the lovely features of his face, 901Please respect copyright.PENANARTD5iY9PFr
Rode fair Ascanius on a fiery steed, 901Please respect copyright.PENANARF7w9c7hTS
Queen Dido's gift, and of the Tyrian breed. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAbOlXTQgJ86
Sure coursers for the rest the king ordains, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAzVTIEVCag3
With golden bits adorn'd, and purple reins. 901Please respect copyright.PENANADehzEnoDUF
The pleas'd spectators peals of shouts renew, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAme1Iex5vir
And all the parents in the children view; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAy8xrM2GM2Q
Their make, their motions, and their sprightly grace, 901Please respect copyright.PENANACsWlH74xox
And hopes and fears alternate in their face. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAqonw1u5cyp
Th' unfledg'd commanders and their martial train 901Please respect copyright.PENANAh1wpm58yyw
First make the circuit of the sandy plain 901Please respect copyright.PENANAz6MAKP8Hos
Around their sires, and, at th' appointed sign, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAJTltIIAn7A
Drawn up in beauteous order, form a line. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAmVOyKI209i
The second signal sounds, the troop divides 901Please respect copyright.PENANAiCe80a1YNT
In three distinguish'd parts, with three distinguish'd guides 901Please respect copyright.PENANAfLf3jOmm4u
Again they close, and once again disjoin; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAvlyqar3d3p
In troop to troop oppos'd, and line to line. 901Please respect copyright.PENANACtajHczJwo
They meet; they wheel; they throw their darts afar 901Please respect copyright.PENANAbeqINUbdqB
With harmless rage and well-dissembled war. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAA5F7Wyu9FJ
Then in a round the mingled bodies run: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAyyFsF6sq8q
Flying they follow, and pursuing shun; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAIlTNsMCPcs
Broken, they break; and, rallying, they renew 901Please respect copyright.PENANArhnQyiTKnJ
In other forms the military shew. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAnPK1A8EszF
At last, in order, undiscern'd they join, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAEzSQFg0O8T
And march together in a friendly line. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAbIIy3S9hui
And, as the Cretan labyrinth of old, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA52096zY8rt
With wand'ring ways and many a winding fold, 901Please respect copyright.PENANADdZxNrFjyb
Involv'd the weary feet, without redress, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAugVrMhQQ89
In a round error, which denied recess; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAZDu1b0MOJv
So fought the Trojan boys in warlike play, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAbOFDKq3PQP
Turn'd and return'd, and still a diff'rent way. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAY5as8xTgEh
Thus dolphins in the deep each other chase 901Please respect copyright.PENANAb6eof0mFi2
In circles, when they swim around the wat'ry race. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAK5laOTfnIq
This game, these carousels, Ascanius taught; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAnSyJ0t01Fi
And, building Alba, to the Latins brought; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA9HqcVrjNYe
Shew'd what he learn'd: the Latin sires impart 901Please respect copyright.PENANA615wq1WrTG
To their succeeding sons the graceful art; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAaYGVGuzEu7
From these imperial Rome receiv'd the game, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA6ZeeG12gFh
Which Troy, the youths the Trojan troop, they name. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAbHVKAAdN2U
Thus far the sacred sports they celebrate: 901Please respect copyright.PENANACWmbNTT3aM
But Fortune soon resum'd her ancient hate; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAFJg6SJbLDE
For, while they pay the dead his annual dues, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAmVkA7pUz3f
Those envied rites Saturnian Juno views; 901Please respect copyright.PENANADBOqTF7JDS
And sends the goddess of the various bow, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAhpj8d9kx0k
To try new methods of revenge below; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAVnJutzNUHn
Supplies the winds to wing her airy way, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA9TJ3tMkxPA
Where in the port secure the navy lay. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAAjQOnLOY4g
Swiftly fair Iris down her arch descends, 901Please respect copyright.PENANApQ7wmTfdQ8
And, undiscern'd, her fatal voyage ends. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAJpZK1engCD
She saw the gath'ring crowd; and, gliding thence, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAJaPOv9hXss
The desart shore, and fleet without defense. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAiWDHsAmxt4
The Trojan matrons, on the sands alone, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAWyu5fQRmy0
With sighs and tears Anchises' death bemoan; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAysl2gfGYpx
Then, turning to the sea their weeping eyes, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAXXi71xscIk
Their pity to themselves renews their cries. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAwHNzabFhfK
"Alas!" said one, "what oceans yet remain 901Please respect copyright.PENANAqbfo0IkQSc
For us to sail! what labors to sustain!" 901Please respect copyright.PENANAhlcheT49zs
All take the word, and, with a gen'ral groan, 901Please respect copyright.PENANApLLILdzvWj
Implore the gods for peace, and places of their own. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAOpLbmWiJr9
The goddess, great in mischief, views their pains, 901Please respect copyright.PENANASG23Mc9HLT
And in a woman's form her heav'nly limbs restrains. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAJKnw8lc5QT
In face and shape old Beroe she became, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA0FR9epFmMr
Doryclus' wife, a venerable dame, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAlH6ODCYWf3
Once blest with riches, and a mother's name. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAcnG8WXFoFk
Thus chang'd, amidst the crying crowd she ran, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAbOq5UprvGk
Mix'd with the matrons, and these words began: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAGKeeTCTjHs
"O wretched we, whom not the Grecian pow'r, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAxresyJEuc3
Nor flames, destroy'd, in Troy's unhappy hour! 901Please respect copyright.PENANAylHe1MyyRv
O wretched we, reserv'd by cruel fate, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAOVP04isyOQ
Beyond the ruins of the sinking state! 901Please respect copyright.PENANAljU48bwQGa
Now sev'n revolving years are wholly run, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAnzR12jP0GC
Since this improsp'rous voyage we begun; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAc0s8KZ3gSC
Since, toss'd from shores to shores, from lands to lands, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA9VoOoAdis4
Inhospitable rocks and barren sands, 901Please respect copyright.PENANADMgftXpbIV
Wand'ring in exile thro' the stormy sea, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAqPLs6qxRNr
We search in vain for flying Italy. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA2i3FR9lT5U
Now cast by fortune on this kindred land, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAZoahua7fQk
What should our rest and rising walls withstand, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA623421o1N1
Or hinder here to fix our banish'd band? 901Please respect copyright.PENANAYj1MFgpEf6
O country lost, and gods redeem'd in vain, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAxmYyZz1OIj
If still in endless exile we remain! 901Please respect copyright.PENANAZv8YRbmo5r
Shall we no more the Trojan walls renew, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAd2SyaQ3fn5
Or streams of some dissembled Simois view! 901Please respect copyright.PENANAJ6PMTrTQTD
Haste, join with me, th' unhappy fleet consume! 901Please respect copyright.PENANANgfsBNI52J
Cassandra bids; and I declare her doom. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAWzIinqjy9Q
In sleep I saw her; she supplied my hands 901Please respect copyright.PENANAwEeo83aTCl
(For this I more than dreamt) with flaming brands: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAfN2Gun4Vpj
'With these,' said she, 'these wand'ring ships destroy: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAOZaIkXB4ny
These are your fatal seats, and this your Troy.' 901Please respect copyright.PENANAMjoJYqnTk5
Time calls you now; the precious hour employ: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAzOvI9KuuNF
Slack not the good presage, while Heav'n inspires 901Please respect copyright.PENANAGaWSAx6Y9R
Our minds to dare, and gives the ready fires. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAI8z326CjKX
See! Neptune's altars minister their brands: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAfvX1sduSEx
The god is pleas'd; the god supplies our hands." 901Please respect copyright.PENANAmzQI5USFZi
Then from the pile a flaming fire she drew, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAozEw7nmEG5
And, toss'd in air, amidst the galleys threw. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAJVJv5bldic
Wrapp'd in amaze, the matrons wildly stare: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAmJY3iazSRq
Then Pyrgo, reverenc'd for her hoary hair, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAXIWCFOIpaz
Pyrgo, the nurse of Priam's num'rous race: 901Please respect copyright.PENANABEC2CaJIjp
"No Beroe this, tho' she belies her face! 901Please respect copyright.PENANAOOwbcWj16D
What terrors from her frowning front arise! 901Please respect copyright.PENANAHBwGagppnJ
Behold a goddess in her ardent eyes! 901Please respect copyright.PENANAa4TyA6Ok7k
What rays around her heav'nly face are seen! 901Please respect copyright.PENANAUFrtrkHleU
Mark her majestic voice, and more than mortal mien! 901Please respect copyright.PENANAGh7sZl26Zn
Beroe but now I left, whom, pin'd with pain, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAKj2Bnu0ZWG
Her age and anguish from these rites detain," 901Please respect copyright.PENANAc5J91F01yp
She said. The matrons, seiz'd with new amaze, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAvpwj1Xucuv
Roll their malignant eyes, and on the navy gaze. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAnh7kyBhRFQ
They fear, and hope, and neither part obey: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAIAyTHVrjUj
They hope the fated land, but fear the fatal way. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAfXGXeZD3fB
The goddess, having done her task below, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAvMhXYBhaOc
Mounts up on equal wings, and bends her painted bow. 901Please respect copyright.PENANATod5xqau7s
Struck with the sight, and seiz'd with rage divine, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAMlTDR3wI0S
The matrons prosecute their mad design: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAbYZoAecv2W
They shriek aloud; they snatch, with impious hands, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA15SiEEYIyl
The food of altars; fires and flaming brands. 901Please respect copyright.PENANABt9tBFKmu9
Green boughs and saplings, mingled in their haste, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAaSRbMdbaK8
And smoking torches, on the ships they cast. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAmp2GGTlYmm
The flame, unstopp'd at first, more fury gains, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAUzhyGYyIat
And Vulcan rides at large with loosen'd reins: 901Please respect copyright.PENANARkJZHSTcpU
Triumphant to the painted sterns he soars, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA9meBjlJ2fu
And seizes, in this way, the banks and crackling oars. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAwz5NgFfA82
Eumelus was the first the news to bear, 901Please respect copyright.PENANATNIh4cR9xy
While yet they crowd the rural theater. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAvWCdIGtTaE
Then, what they hear, is witness'd by their eyes: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAQhV3dvHxc6
A storm of sparkles and of flames arise. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA8jorcByEJu
Ascanius took th' alarm, while yet he led 901Please respect copyright.PENANAHAaRbsmFZe
His early warriors on his prancing steed, 901Please respect copyright.PENANArn4tuqA5ey
And, spurring on, his equals soon o'erpass'd; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAyGGntAVyzY
Nor could his frighted friends reclaim his haste. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAxiUWmUaNyZ
Soon as the royal youth appear'd in view, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAQrEQVv1FMF
He sent his voice before him as he flew: 901Please respect copyright.PENANA1hC0n7yeo0
"What madness moves you, matrons, to destroy 901Please respect copyright.PENANAhUwZO7L4sF
The last remainders of unhappy Troy! 901Please respect copyright.PENANANJqlhlGEOJ
Not hostile fleets, but your own hopes, you burn, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA5C18kvsUTW
And on your friends your fatal fury turn. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAztXM12x2Xj
Behold your own Ascanius!" While he said, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAFoaM6KibsN
He drew his glitt'ring helmet from his head, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAHJ9B8MdpoY
In which the youths to sportful arms he led. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAhxfdmb9iM7
By this, Aeneas and his train appear; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAFBqZGvnhTf
And now the women, seiz'd with shame and fear, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAkeBX30avfN
Dispers'd, to woods and caverns take their flight, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA9WW2MrvnKr
Abhor their actions, and avoid the light; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAncXg8RIDa1
Their friends acknowledge, and their error find, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAsoPHsSybbe
And shake the goddess from their alter'd mind. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAlE3jKkAJwD
Not so the raging fires their fury cease, 901Please respect copyright.PENANABtQGIhiEfk
But, lurking in the seams, with seeming peace, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAUO0ObHGBgl
Work on their way amid the smold'ring tow, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAbncjvuaQhr
Sure in destruction, but in motion slow. 901Please respect copyright.PENANABYS4UMbv5x
The silent plague thro' the green timber eats, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAYaRn8Okp6J
And vomits out a tardy flame by fits. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAu63LnDS93g
Down to the keels, and upward to the sails, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAgcjMo1ZzZJ
The fire descends, or mounts, but still prevails; 901Please respect copyright.PENANARHKDHcBoyh
Nor buckets pour'd, nor strength of human hand, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA3d5DOtRjb4
Can the victorious element withstand. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA1e85ULHkzx
The pious hero rends his robe, and throws 901Please respect copyright.PENANAMPFfARMbkg
To heav'n his hands, and with his hands his vows. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAN5mtNvNbiK
"O Jove," he cried, "if pray'rs can yet have place; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAMw3t8bSjHD
If thou abhorr'st not all the Dardan race; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAwJBkniMKL2
If any spark of pity still remain; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAJIiz9l2TGE
If gods are gods, and not invok'd in vain; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAIZr5lPzrMv
Yet spare the relics of the Trojan train! 901Please respect copyright.PENANArSVMra165Z
Yet from the flames our burning vessels free, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAFtR9q8DoJQ
Or let thy fury fall alone on me! 901Please respect copyright.PENANAPn6wma5OVw
At this devoted head thy thunder throw, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAU2ok5Z90br
And send the willing sacrifice below!" 901Please respect copyright.PENANAJtFklfeo0X
Scarce had he said, when southern storms arise: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAiy5cgzr2VM
From pole to pole the forky lightning flies; 901Please respect copyright.PENANATyOqmwW43K
Loud rattling shakes the mountains and the plain; 901Please respect copyright.PENANADtpuIDlR7q
Heav'n bellies downward, and descends in rain. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAbtVd9ybJP6
Whole sheets of water from the clouds are sent, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA0rcKHe9KM9
Which, hissing thro' the planks, the flames prevent, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA48xE2Qb0ff
And stop the fiery pest. Four ships alone 901Please respect copyright.PENANAh9jvFShpWp
Burn to the waist, and for the fleet atone. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAiMYsSFMPzW
But doubtful thoughts the hero's heart divide; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAfEemd6fbYh
If he should still in Sicily reside, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAYaYFkvYu3e
Forgetful of his fates, or tempt the main, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAhFnlTtPB5q
In hope the promis'd Italy to gain. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAACGQumcYuJ
Then Nautes, old and wise, to whom alone 901Please respect copyright.PENANAyUucooSHyk
The will of Heav'n by Pallas was foreshown; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAwcowzgGnnk
Vers'd in portents, experienc'd, and inspir'd 901Please respect copyright.PENANAOMXp1rt6bZ
To tell events, and what the fates requir'd; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAWdUMUA6UyA
Thus while he stood, to neither part inclin'd, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA8391hsw9iE
With cheerful words reliev'd his lab'ring mind: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAcfcCBCrdGY
"O goddess-born, resign'd in ev'ry state, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA6gegr0ybKf
With patience bear, with prudence push your fate. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA3C62y52z53
By suff'ring well, our Fortune we subdue; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAeuiRyyM54R
Fly when she frowns, and, when she calls, pursue. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAvHQrbQvT0D
Your friend Acestes is of Trojan kind; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA6WIh7mjSuN
To him disclose the secrets of your mind: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAF2I46n5G7e
Trust in his hands your old and useless train; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAI6gBIWKbCP
Too num'rous for the ships which yet remain: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAzOOW23BmPV
The feeble, old, indulgent of their ease, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAxp5rJOnST3
The dames who dread the dangers of the seas, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA8P9CpBT8oJ
With all the dastard crew, who dare not stand 901Please respect copyright.PENANAsBC2G96j3r
The shock of battle with your foes by land. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAqsIiAgZfJr
Here you may build a common town for all, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAWjnVnRN7pm
And, from Acestes' name, Acesta call." 901Please respect copyright.PENANAouBXwTREFW
The reasons, with his friend's experience join'd, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAlmtIwidWVW
Encourag'd much, but more disturb'd his mind. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAjpd3P58tE4
'T was dead of night; when to his slumb'ring eyes 901Please respect copyright.PENANAMsZHAKe3AN
His father's shade descended from the skies, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAY8KUKBtrOD
And thus he spoke: "O more than vital breath, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAkvVinr7baK
Lov'd while I liv'd, and dear ev'n after death; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAsawWPSfZiZ
O son, in various toils and troubles toss'd, 901Please respect copyright.PENANASjSrGPYu48
The King of Heav'n employs my careful ghost 901Please respect copyright.PENANAbgb34E4v7I
On his commands: the god, who sav'd from fire 901Please respect copyright.PENANAOtHJ7TffvW
Your flaming fleet, and heard your just desire. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAI6edfcycNR
The wholesome counsel of your friend receive, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAAsVD3Oft4W
And here the coward train and woman leave: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAj1mcWV8RTU
The chosen youth, and those who nobly dare, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAUOo14Uppip
Transport, to tempt the dangers of the war. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAL5HIoSkcN0
The stern Italians will their courage try; 901Please respect copyright.PENANANLtFb7be4E
Rough are their manners, and their minds are high. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA2Zo3Fdss7g
But first to Pluto's palace you shall go, 901Please respect copyright.PENANACmWdPCLT2i
And seek my shade among the blest below: 901Please respect copyright.PENANA7OcV2C7itb
For not with impious ghosts my soul remains, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAf8xIo9hKAl
Nor suffers with the damn'd perpetual pains, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAxwvjhAd4nH
But breathes the living air of soft Elysian plains. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAdBYzuKKz6A
The chaste Sibylla shall your steps convey, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAUyoZwzu2rn
And blood of offer'd victims free the way. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA2HoZcSOKRs
There shall you know what realms the gods assign, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAoBKyouKkfY
And learn the fates and fortunes of your line. 901Please respect copyright.PENANADUtbuF6ktZ
But now, farewell! I vanish with the night, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA0PJGvdtVpj
And feel the blast of heav'n's approaching light." 901Please respect copyright.PENANAqtbFt2AoQj
He said, and mix'd with shades, and took his airy flight. 901Please respect copyright.PENANACPHoUHk5aD
"Whither so fast?" the filial duty cried; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA6cJ6udxKpB
"And why, ah why, the wish'd embrace denied?" 901Please respect copyright.PENANAqAiuTHszS1
He said, and rose; as holy zeal inspires, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAkpCxApMDtp
He rakes hot embers, and renews the fires; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA314vQkMUHd
His country gods and Vesta then adores 901Please respect copyright.PENANAl2uLA70tSr
With cakes and incense, and their aid implores. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAId6WNGiqhG
Next, for his friends and royal host he sent, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAbNNmEHy2YY
Reveal'd his vision, and the gods' intent, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAsTCbfl0NB0
With his own purpose. All, without delay, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAd7GT53QddR
The will of Jove, and his desires obey. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA6cDmIj28lm
They list with women each degenerate name, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA4oArlWKxda
Who dares not hazard life for future fame. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAJwCEnpO5bU
These they cashier: the brave remaining few, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAiSeuBrXTeh
Oars, banks, and cables, half consum'd, renew. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAFJc4O5KgaL
The prince designs a city with the plow; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAEBNkSHnqSq
The lots their sev'ral tenements allow. 901Please respect copyright.PENANATiql0sCHwS
This part is nam'd from Ilium, that from Troy, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAQEitnKxX3l
And the new king ascends the throne with joy; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAq5mBhtPQS6
A chosen senate from the people draws; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAjpHg4dSDqD
Appoints the judges, and ordains the laws. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAFRDVhZh30O
Then, on the top of Eryx, they begin 901Please respect copyright.PENANAKVTmAqhQFk
A rising temple to the Paphian queen. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAsiu8V72YqR
Anchises, last, is honor'd as a god; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAEw9wGwRSVN
A priest is added, annual gifts bestow'd, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAOKT62770ss
And groves are planted round his blest abode. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAwi0gNooTZK
Nine days they pass in feasts, their temples crown'd; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAGt9bSgmXSX
And fumes of incense in the fanes abound. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAHIJ0vP4R4x
Then from the south arose a gentle breeze 901Please respect copyright.PENANAUynbGsbgjg
That curl'd the smoothness of the glassy seas; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAHv2xcPoXmC
The rising winds a ruffling gale afford, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAvIJbHrCeng
And call the merry mariners aboard. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAT1wJ1VS0JL
Now loud laments along the shores resound, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAg6PBe5UL3W
Of parting friends in close embraces bound. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAxlET685qKv
The trembling women, the degenerate train, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAOfn4gcTJbH
Who shunn'd the frightful dangers of the main, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAqJReruIWen
Ev'n those desire to sail, and take their share 901Please respect copyright.PENANAbuf7IpME9t
Of the rough passage and the promis'd war: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAczUoEjGxbL
Whom good Aeneas cheers, and recommends 901Please respect copyright.PENANASslz41MHGf
To their new master's care his fearful friends. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAN5GaJJlG6V
On Eryx's altars three fat calves he lays; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAYeVDLtj9Lk
A lamb new-fallen to the stormy seas; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAJgg5aYPy0O
Then slips his haulsers, and his anchors weighs. 901Please respect copyright.PENANARCzxhAYiuu
High on the deck the godlike hero stands, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAOVpmtp3NSp
With olive crown'd, a charger in his hands; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAyvIwOlpIv0
Then cast the reeking entrails in the brine, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAbd7SdGazq6
And pour'd the sacrifice of purple wine. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAcPMMji7EY9
Fresh gales arise; with equal strokes they vie, 901Please respect copyright.PENANALesYcru7C0
And brush the buxom seas, and o'er the billows fly. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAykR8eLk5Dd
Meantime the mother goddess, full of fears, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAQx4oBt179P
To Neptune thus address'd, with tender tears: 901Please respect copyright.PENANALAY1RsQHqq
"The pride of Jove's imperious queen, the rage, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAJUkgaVQnGa
The malice which no suff'rings can assuage, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAFXEToI8ZrX
Compel me to these pray'rs; since neither fate, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAYThXZmN2ZP
Nor time, nor pity, can remove her hate: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAxd6vLuCYrD
Ev'n Jove is thwarted by his haughty wife; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAbas198f6OH
Still vanquish'd, yet she still renews the strife. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAPJvL6S7b3R
As if 't were little to consume the town 901Please respect copyright.PENANAROrD8Obljq
Which aw'd the world, and wore th' imperial crown, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA3Rsgnr52Z3
She prosecutes the ghost of Troy with pains, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAHb4zTr8Vjx
And gnaws, ev'n to the bones, the last remains. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA7OeyMnjGJc
Let her the causes of her hatred tell; 901Please respect copyright.PENANApMEBSVzK5u
But you can witness its effects too well. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAKPjfe0Yc6P
You saw the storm she rais'd on Libyan floods, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAX5kzI2W6zu
That mix'd the mounting billows with the clouds; 901Please respect copyright.PENANANjnmpOGNJE
When, bribing Aeolus, she shook the main, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAyXIp5t3jsq
And mov'd rebellion in your wat'ry reign. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAyAeFWEHvKb
With fury she possess'd the Dardan dames, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAnOKohQIiiB
To burn their fleet with execrable flames, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAYn2YljNc4J
And forc'd Aeneas, when his ships were lost, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAbI35uTON5v
To leave his foll'wers on a foreign coast. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAxhQtxuSRBw
For what remains, your godhead I implore, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAZnEKTZg2jX
And trust my son to your protecting pow'r. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAUlCeK7vcLD
If neither Jove's nor Fate's decree withstand, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA29DqVEXd74
Secure his passage to the Latian land." 901Please respect copyright.PENANAQa20jeQgKO
Then thus the mighty Ruler of the Main: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAlc1YIPCf8A
"What may not Venus hope from Neptune's reign? 901Please respect copyright.PENANAdiSoInh8ac
My kingdom claims your birth; my late defense 901Please respect copyright.PENANA6YOxq1MRg4
Of your indanger'd fleet may claim your confidence. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAjpoSZIVvRJ
Nor less by land than sea my deeds declare 901Please respect copyright.PENANA9lTzCRKWLh
How much your lov'd Aeneas is my care. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAdumdvBuDsU
Thee, Xanthus, and thee, Simois, I attest. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA1IapsiyBbB
Your Trojan troops when proud Achilles press'd, 901Please respect copyright.PENANApqocVRqurQ
And drove before him headlong on the plain, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAv04CCRQYyt
And dash'd against the walls the trembling train; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA8ruKrMbAYG
When floods were fill'd with bodies of the slain; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA91t7mdCRnU
When crimson Xanthus, doubtful of his way, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA3gEdOhTLuv
Stood up on ridges to behold the sea; 901Please respect copyright.PENANADO3Ewc3SLx
(New heaps came tumbling in, and chok'd his way;) 901Please respect copyright.PENANA6j0cpNFLcg
When your Aeneas fought, but fought with odds 901Please respect copyright.PENANAdh0ly2IlZM
Of force unequal, and unequal gods; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAoOuB4aE6Bs
I spread a cloud before the victor's sight, 901Please respect copyright.PENANADgJJebrEPa
Sustain'd the vanquish'd, and secur'd his flight; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAvAMGkbtRmh
Ev'n then secur'd him, when I sought with joy 901Please respect copyright.PENANAUpnnw16kdb
The vow'd destruction of ungrateful Troy. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA3UyfuupcnW
My will's the same: fair goddess, fear no more, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAVCDW8dwiG6
Your fleet shall safely gain the Latian shore; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAoRCLAuPNDX
Their lives are giv'n; one destin'd head alone 901Please respect copyright.PENANA5lWJAB5SWn
Shall perish, and for multitudes atone." 901Please respect copyright.PENANAY6FrTBdnbE
Thus having arm'd with hopes her anxious mind, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAtK908SbMVJ
His finny team Saturnian Neptune join'd, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAiHtoHiQWgr
Then adds the foamy bridle to their jaws, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAB1VJJx2M2S
And to the loosen'd reins permits the laws. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA81lZiKWAMJ
High on the waves his azure car he guides; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA9Zn2TXJZuJ
Its axles thunder, and the sea subsides, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAp5aKIVglJY
And the smooth ocean rolls her silent tides. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAqNDPr3rK9O
The tempests fly before their father's face, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAy9ftiSCQ4z
Trains of inferior gods his triumph grace, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAQjVrThXBPE
And monster whales before their master play, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAZlNEIr1mHB
And choirs of Tritons crowd the wat'ry way. 901Please respect copyright.PENANArs5qitYn77
The marshal'd pow'rs in equal troops divide 901Please respect copyright.PENANA5UHJUKOOQa
To right and left; the gods his better side 901Please respect copyright.PENANAbQVeEIJUHm
Inclose, and on the worse the Nymphs and Nereids ride. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAOWzJXWdRF2
Now smiling hope, with sweet vicissitude, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAUEHWwKHxLW
Within the hero's mind his joys renew'd. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAYGNQEMaHlL
He calls to raise the masts, the sheets display; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAlS75BG8meM
The cheerful crew with diligence obey; 901Please respect copyright.PENANARstfoZ527P
They scud before the wind, and sail in open sea. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAQSAFMK75IB
Ahead of all the master pilot steers; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAxMFbHpD20A
And, as he leads, the following navy veers. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAltj6fz0geX
The steeds of Night had travel'd half the sky, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA4TwNURezIU
The drowsy rowers on their benches lie, 901Please respect copyright.PENANA8JSoLt84p9
When the soft God of Sleep, with easy flight, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAQnCOF3cDcL
Descends, and draws behind a trail of light. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAqQZnwyIMIE
Thou, Palinurus, art his destin'd prey; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAFpP9xCrPV5
To thee alone he takes his fatal way. 901Please respect copyright.PENANArsfQxjcIfz
Dire dreams to thee, and iron sleep, he bears; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAMe0RXRpL7R
And, lighting on thy prow, the form of Phorbas wears. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAZ6LMJWp5DX
Then thus the traitor god began his tale: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAHyUdYN7pl9
"The winds, my friend, inspire a pleasing gale; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA8SYBNfRKMY
The ships, without thy care, securely sail. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAjbx6XFKztN
Now steal an hour of sweet repose; and I 901Please respect copyright.PENANAU2uixE6MAY
Will take the rudder and thy room supply." 901Please respect copyright.PENANAoiW9Cy6h0C
To whom the yawning pilot, half asleep: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAkZvlxWI0NM
"Me dost thou bid to trust the treach'rous deep, 901Please respect copyright.PENANATSecdgLGmU
The harlot smiles of her dissembling face, 901Please respect copyright.PENANArllqowTGpO
And to her faith commit the Trojan race? 901Please respect copyright.PENANAjw9kHJurHT
Shall I believe the Siren South again, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAEaUHDx6CVC
And, oft betray'd, not know the monster main?" 901Please respect copyright.PENANAo75deTchsH
He said: his fasten'd hands the rudder keep, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAteZb8zuai8
And, fix'd on heav'n, his eyes repel invading sleep. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAtog1FXhpB7
The god was wroth, and at his temples threw 901Please respect copyright.PENANAu0ydhGLToE
A branch in Lethe dipp'd, and drunk with Stygian dew: 901Please respect copyright.PENANANps2FLcxY2
The pilot, vanquish'd by the pow'r divine, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAlr6GSIh4Xx
Soon clos'd his swimming eyes, and lay supine. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAzQ5W4yx1ab
Scarce were his limbs extended at their length, 901Please respect copyright.PENANALcbIDoXbJa
The god, insulting with superior strength, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAcvFrWiUsfT
Fell heavy on him, plung'd him in the sea, 901Please respect copyright.PENANArUTnKOm46Z
And, with the stern, the rudder tore away. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAT3UqLiOrvp
Headlong he fell, and, struggling in the main, 901Please respect copyright.PENANADBmPNSovNo
Cried out for helping hands, but cried in vain. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAtcbKXfhFME
The victor daemon mounts obscure in air, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAh1TsxFpwNQ
While the ship sails without the pilot's care. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA8cYiOHrCkY
On Neptune's faith the floating fleet relies; 901Please respect copyright.PENANA3HkJY2Ju46
But what the man forsook, the god supplies, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAO2EWFMYLAi
And o'er the dang'rous deep secure the navy flies; 901Please respect copyright.PENANAeBVEHggf1q
Glides by the Sirens' cliffs, a shelfy coast, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAFvaNOFygns
Long infamous for ships and sailors lost, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAMEjkC1Gmdl
And white with bones. Th' impetuous ocean roars, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAhDkru4VXsn
And rocks rebellow from the sounding shores. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAnkzvMGcU5p
The watchful hero felt the knocks, and found 901Please respect copyright.PENANAUqpj3WBYzN
The tossing vessel sail'd on shoaly ground. 901Please respect copyright.PENANAwRgrzVY5pN
Sure of his pilot's loss, he takes himself 901Please respect copyright.PENANAn8xeWbXLii
The helm, and steers aloof, and shuns the shelf. 901Please respect copyright.PENANA474VVEuwib
Inly he griev'd, and, groaning from the breast, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAsos5TZAXaG
Deplor'd his death; and thus his pain express'd: 901Please respect copyright.PENANAh9PXWNezSN
"For faith repos'd on seas, and on the flatt'ring sky, 901Please respect copyright.PENANAA3pMoqnjPk
Thy naked corpse is doom'd on shores unknown to lie." 901Please respect copyright.PENANArWgknevUdB
