Meantime the Trojan cuts his wat'ry way, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAdtQekwHPK5
Fix'd on his voyage, thro' the curling sea; 876Please respect copyright.PENANA20NIt9CtFw
Then, casting back his eyes, with dire amaze, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAbR73AOXFVO
Sees on the Punic shore the mounting blaze. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAlG3CpmciiC
The cause unknown; yet his presaging mind 876Please respect copyright.PENANAGCNoUGY7Sa
The fate of Dido from the fire divin'd; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAv83TRwgCRS
He knew the stormy souls of womankind, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA5qlgaLnVa5
What secret springs their eager passions move, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAQHMUdGYRuQ
How capable of death for injur'd love. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA2nWdVdacKF
Dire auguries from hence the Trojans draw; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAnZSa3l4iVs
Till neither fires nor shining shores they saw. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAorbBq1PLG7
Now seas and skies their prospect only bound; 876Please respect copyright.PENANA33hru3RUGj
An empty space above, a floating field around. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAHgDt1uSh3X
But soon the heav'ns with shadows were o'erspread; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAK5P5vHeffn
A swelling cloud hung hov'ring o'er their head: 876Please respect copyright.PENANArtqE3xT5eW
Livid it look'd, the threat'ning of a storm: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAh1DaXBcQe0
Then night and horror ocean's face deform. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAw7fFifTNQ4
The pilot, Palinurus, cried aloud: 876Please respect copyright.PENANARo1IIu0yoY
"What gusts of weather from that gath'ring cloud 876Please respect copyright.PENANAnqdNZQGgDx
My thoughts presage! Ere yet the tempest roars, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAZ3fEtNdDo7
Stand to your tackle, mates, and stretch your oars; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAn1PnGTX2BD
Contract your swelling sails, and luff to wind." 876Please respect copyright.PENANAyNzsbaGnJz
The frighted crew perform the task assign'd. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAcu8NJHXmp9
Then, to his fearless chief: "Not Heav'n," said he, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAq9s2kSXAnn
"Tho' Jove himself should promise Italy, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAhFp6XXHPVb
Can stem the torrent of this raging sea. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAYjveevl52y
Mark how the shifting winds from west arise, 876Please respect copyright.PENANANUaYeFitcr
And what collected night involves the skies! 876Please respect copyright.PENANAktIeUtvUcW
Nor can our shaken vessels live at sea, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAaN7PqUOQRl
Much less against the tempest force their way. 876Please respect copyright.PENANArqrb74i9Mi
'T is fate diverts our course, and fate we must obey. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAOGnMKp3V1I
Not far from hence, if I observ'd aright 876Please respect copyright.PENANA9G77b3xE2I
The southing of the stars, and polar light, 876Please respect copyright.PENANACklVBkXEPn
Sicilia lies, whose hospitable shores 876Please respect copyright.PENANAmlm6FG4miW
In safety we may reach with struggling oars." 876Please respect copyright.PENANAMQTfjhyG6B
Aeneas then replied: "Too sure I find 876Please respect copyright.PENANAj8SCXUXZOG
We strive in vain against the seas and wind: 876Please respect copyright.PENANA2uFra9XwHu
Now shift your sails; what place can please me more 876Please respect copyright.PENANAFErbRlX0Ut
Than what you promise, the Sicilian shore, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAAR5xnMsbLa
Whose hallow'd earth Anchises' bones contains, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAp1gDVGRdwA
And where a prince of Trojan lineage reigns?" 876Please respect copyright.PENANAi4kqOrqaA4
The course resolv'd, before the western wind 876Please respect copyright.PENANAuzRurERhUx
They scud amain, and make the port assign'd. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAsXPHYU93Nw
Meantime Acestes, from a lofty stand, 876Please respect copyright.PENANApoPjmG9XR3
Beheld the fleet descending on the land; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAGm47TSDE1W
And, not unmindful of his ancient race, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAnhzDDFmhbY
Down from the cliff he ran with eager pace, 876Please respect copyright.PENANANxgeCx8XIY
And held the hero in a strict embrace. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAKSlc1QO9sj
Of a rough Libyan bear the spoils he wore, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA5dHcQYduSq
And either hand a pointed jav'lin bore. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAGYOvtE5eTY
His mother was a dame of Dardan blood; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAekSJnlwhus
His sire Crinisus, a Sicilian flood. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAREleMSSVPK
He welcomes his returning friends ashore 876Please respect copyright.PENANAJbWU7lEDsC
With plenteous country cates and homely store. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAKFc2FyT0SR
Now, when the following morn had chas'd away 876Please respect copyright.PENANAPC1mUOqZ96
The flying stars, and light restor'd the day, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAbD0LaBvHeT
Aeneas call'd the Trojan troops around, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAwZFXzADJQl
And thus bespoke them from a rising ground: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAldzLvBe6HS
"Offspring of heav'n, divine Dardanian race! 876Please respect copyright.PENANAIXZrgu7Bt8
The sun, revolving thro' th' ethereal space, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAo1qT0DevUK
The shining circle of the year has fill'd, 876Please respect copyright.PENANANcTCIkr5GY
Since first this isle my father's ashes held: 876Please respect copyright.PENANABZgnFrOvBr
And now the rising day renews the year; 876Please respect copyright.PENANA5vtat6fNaL
A day for ever sad, for ever dear. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAheTROrCFvX
This would I celebrate with annual games, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAWPTrOwCwl3
With gifts on altars pil'd, and holy flames, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA33OXA8YI0N
Tho' banish'd to Gaetulia's barren sands, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA844hPdVsnU
Caught on the Grecian seas, or hostile lands: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAcGBRIguaN3
But since this happy storm our fleet has driv'n 876Please respect copyright.PENANAVNKojfKwtw
(Not, as I deem, without the will of Heav'n) 876Please respect copyright.PENANAKRVtxmymwS
Upon these friendly shores and flow'ry plains, 876Please respect copyright.PENANApezrSp5C1F
Which hide Anchises and his blest remains, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAEwm8qdwzA6
Let us with joy perform his honors due, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAEdI5Od0Jla
And pray for prosp'rous winds, our voyage to renew; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAiuaXpI7rMX
Pray, that in towns and temples of our own, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA0jGl9gYk6G
The name of great Anchises may be known, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAgNtV16qABj
And yearly games may spread the gods' renown. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAYpu1oK9HET
Our sports Acestes, of the Trojan race, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAjM9C2fb8br
With royal gifts ordain'd, is pleas'd to grace: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAnWGLO1Mr3i
Two steers on ev'ry ship the king bestows; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAMPAOtYu2HL
His gods and ours shall share your equal vows. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAWqtryvJZtf
Besides, if, nine days hence, the rosy morn 876Please respect copyright.PENANARpVk6f83Sv
Shall with unclouded light the skies adorn, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAIueFvrFKJC
That day with solemn sports I mean to grace: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAUETDU7SCEu
Light galleys on the seas shall run a wat'ry race; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAxWDSyQ8g7X
Some shall in swiftness for the goal contend, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAE4NITnGvsG
And others try the twanging bow to bend; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAfKhn2mxbrM
The strong, with iron gauntlets arm'd, shall stand 876Please respect copyright.PENANAQxuZ8e7vZU
Oppos'd in combat on the yellow sand. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAy89MWXVEWn
Let all be present at the games prepar'd, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA7OLOCVH1ve
And joyful victors wait the just reward. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAsF34DbTUuD
But now assist the rites, with garlands crown'd." 876Please respect copyright.PENANAfEfcffSlvo
He said, and first his brows with myrtle bound. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAQIGRNbwsd9
Then Helymus, by his example led, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAFvOCCY9a0b
And old Acestes, each adorn'd his head; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAgSpUSJVfG3
Thus young Ascanius, with a sprightly grace, 876Please respect copyright.PENANASurnsWh0nV
His temples tied, and all the Trojan race. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAFZk8szeSG2
Aeneas then advanc'd amidst the train, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAt6csNZha8i
By thousands follow'd thro' the flow'ry plain, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAUzSpZXFWHF
To great Anchises' tomb; which when he found, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAEq02afbobb
He pour'd to Bacchus, on the hallow'd ground, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAqYT7MGwpz1
Two bowls of sparkling wine, of milk two more, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAsdaH3cSnnK
And two (from offer'd bulls) of purple gore, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAsNrwTUZkgg
With roses then the sepulcher he strow'd 876Please respect copyright.PENANAx5xnG6LAnM
And thus his father's ghost bespoke aloud: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAGe4xbTMbQh
"Hail, O ye holy manes! hail again, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAYARVJsgWXA
Paternal ashes, now review'd in vain! 876Please respect copyright.PENANAXQL6ZoYLqz
The gods permitted not, that you, with me, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAxTCSkNqLwj
Should reach the promis'd shores of Italy, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAwDThk5SiPS
Or Tiber's flood, what flood soe'er it be." 876Please respect copyright.PENANAF1dH1q6fBr
Scarce had he finish'd, when, with speckled pride, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAIAaQGccAOe
A serpent from the tomb began to glide; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAllO27HabUk
His hugy bulk on sev'n high volumes roll'd; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAlDK3eCOIzW
Blue was his breadth of back, but streak'd with scaly gold: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAcoSXIAL9L5
Thus riding on his curls, he seem'd to pass 876Please respect copyright.PENANAr9bLcWOXJI
A rolling fire along, and singe the grass. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAq5jamL1387
More various colors thro' his body run, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAmDZVx6NrlH
Than Iris when her bow imbibes the sun. 876Please respect copyright.PENANABUNNaIbPI6
Betwixt the rising altars, and around, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAZMmTKweqsO
The sacred monster shot along the ground; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAuJkJJD7CFW
With harmless play amidst the bowls he pass'd, 876Please respect copyright.PENANApvhHUNUQYC
And with his lolling tongue assay'd the taste: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAbkAQ2VaUQo
Thus fed with holy food, the wondrous guest 876Please respect copyright.PENANANBhoAyiQgB
Within the hollow tomb retir'd to rest. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAQwbgKG3jXQ
The pious prince, surpris'd at what he view'd, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA688JTQFBnO
The fun'ral honors with more zeal renew'd, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAGHOxLo5W0b
Doubtful if this place's genius were, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAQmp1QEEK43
Or guardian of his father's sepulcher. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA4NAlHGq2c4
Five sheep, according to the rites, he slew; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAuJ2nexejZM
As many swine, and steers of sable hue; 876Please respect copyright.PENANABTLFMnLrEH
New gen'rous wine he from the goblets pour'd. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAFZaVwWgJUb
And call'd his father's ghost, from hell restor'd. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAgONv069Ctl
The glad attendants in long order come, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAgL7EjwZA8a
Off'ring their gifts at great Anchises' tomb: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAEdIaFgzLlk
Some add more oxen: some divide the spoil; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAQ8bOGJKj6j
Some place the chargers on the grassy soil; 876Please respect copyright.PENANA55QGsA11KK
Some blow the fires, and off entrails broil. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAKbJ11OPi4W
Now came the day desir'd. The skies were bright 876Please respect copyright.PENANAGQOmfyPMMh
With rosy luster of the rising light: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAvQihkFQmE8
The bord'ring people, rous'd by sounding fame 876Please respect copyright.PENANAXnXXB7UEia
Of Trojan feasts and great Acestes' name, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA994D6MDcfH
The crowded shore with acclamations fill, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA3lmEZcCun7
Part to behold, and part to prove their skill. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAyBUkQ0Kxnz
And first the gifts in public view they place, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA94B5ZGdvuj
Green laurel wreaths, and palm, the victors' grace: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAihfeCx9pXO
Within the circle, arms and tripods lie, 876Please respect copyright.PENANACKIaxwScF2
Ingots of gold and silver, heap'd on high, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAGtfUCgHVtK
And vests embroider'd, of the Tyrian dye. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAuyXNuMKZT7
The trumpet's clangor then the feast proclaims, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAevirAgefnp
And all prepare for their appointed games. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAxiHoNCABkO
Four galleys first, which equal rowers bear, 876Please respect copyright.PENANADKkM2Yt9ek
Advancing, in the wat'ry lists appear. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAN0lrHFAtlI
The speedy Dolphin, that outstrips the wind, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA7CxrbwaZyq
Bore Mnestheus, author of the Memmian kind: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAlXJY55Kg9F
Gyas the vast Chimaera's bulk commands, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAj2qaegWO9H
Which rising, like a tow'ring city stands; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAqXyyXd05IN
Three Trojans tug at ev'ry lab'ring oar; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAcji1VZOx5U
Three banks in three degrees the sailors bore; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAnxKx0zdAFI
Beneath their sturdy strokes the billows roar. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAmfUuF1p82k
Sergesthus, who began the Sergian race, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAMLcWxRfpYg
In the great Centaur took the leading place; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAXUZokQuohn
Cloanthus on the sea-green Scylla stood, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA5bdUimRDL0
From whom Cluentius draws his Trojan blood. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAYMZRhwD0Ph
Far in the sea, against the foaming shore, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAWgR77JIBXo
There stands a rock: the raging billows roar 876Please respect copyright.PENANAcLEhsegqEo
Above his head in storms; but, when 't is clear, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAvbQ6pkyyYG
Uncurl their ridgy backs, and at his foot appear. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAxlu5UluntG
In peace below the gentle waters run; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAq0ELE1KTW8
The cormorants above lie basking in the sun. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAirKXf4uDPJ
On this the hero fix'd an oak in sight, 876Please respect copyright.PENANANmll1wxuaT
The mark to guide the mariners aright. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA2c4HZTfnH4
To bear with this, the seamen stretch their oars; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAOGgtlJT5cc
Then round the rock they steer, and seek the former shores. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAY9awjb6vCO
The lots decide their place. Above the rest, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAPlrsqcW5hF
Each leader shining in his Tyrian vest; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAs8KIt6jcX4
The common crew with wreaths of poplar boughs 876Please respect copyright.PENANAKGMhDleKJN
Their temples crown, and shade their sweaty brows: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAu2IW2pJcSk
Besmear'd with oil, their naked shoulders shine. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAqXLPA3k9xm
All take their seats, and wait the sounding sign: 876Please respect copyright.PENANABpkVD6nayM
They gripe their oars; and ev'ry panting breast 876Please respect copyright.PENANAkp6t2i00W5
Is rais'd by turns with hope, by turns with fear depress'd. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAZIeHN0MlYw
The clangor of the trumpet gives the sign; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAOm0Krs8dLc
At once they start, advancing in a line: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAqa7jimeGaN
With shouts the sailors rend the starry skies; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAbJ8bWLnGf0
Lash'd with their oars, the smoky billows rise; 876Please respect copyright.PENANA1DrqL0NqVG
Sparkles the briny main, and the vex'd ocean fries. 876Please respect copyright.PENANABXlgw5P7t3
Exact in time, with equal strokes they row: 876Please respect copyright.PENANA28ZJPHVjzu
At once the brushing oars and brazen prow 876Please respect copyright.PENANAlNj7CHSrUH
Dash up the sandy waves, and ope the depths below. 876Please respect copyright.PENANArxr2xSLWH5
Not fiery coursers, in a chariot race, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA5gx9XDgF1G
Invade the field with half so swift a pace; 876Please respect copyright.PENANA0OWJYxK86u
Not the fierce driver with more fury lends 876Please respect copyright.PENANA1mE1NFiZ5c
The sounding lash, and, ere the stroke descends, 876Please respect copyright.PENANABgo7q34i8W
Low to the wheels his pliant body bends. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAkS0a40S7yA
The partial crowd their hopes and fears divide, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA1Ue2wsUDNN
And aid with eager shouts the favor'd side. 876Please respect copyright.PENANADrymtp6nyt
Cries, murmurs, clamors, with a mixing sound, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAgFIC5PV3mQ
From woods to woods, from hills to hills rebound. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAyAozmlAeJg
Amidst the loud applauses of the shore, 876Please respect copyright.PENANABeKJsA34py
Gyas outstripp'd the rest, and sprung before: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAbT1mrZSoqZ
Cloanthus, better mann'd, pursued him fast, 876Please respect copyright.PENANApfROSXBWFJ
But his o'er-masted galley check'd his haste. 876Please respect copyright.PENANALB3Oi8AJs3
The Centaur and the Dolphin brush the brine 876Please respect copyright.PENANA64goSWNXhO
With equal oars, advancing in a line; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAsq7Fa76vIP
And now the mighty Centaur seems to lead, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAk3q3Z9Mef9
And now the speedy Dolphin gets ahead; 876Please respect copyright.PENANA6umg47KdG3
Now board to board the rival vessels row, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAFBRipp43GZ
The billows lave the skies, and ocean groans below. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAnMwzNLyKoM
They reach'd the mark. Proud Gyas and his train 876Please respect copyright.PENANAHDX7dKAK0w
In triumph rode, the victors of the main; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAqKjF9AFmeU
But, steering round, he charg'd his pilot stand 876Please respect copyright.PENANAzDjUW8wbxM
More close to shore, and skim along the sand- 876Please respect copyright.PENANAI3qS02eI9P
"Let others bear to sea!" Menoetes heard; 876Please respect copyright.PENANALCXqWidP99
But secret shelves too cautiously he fear'd, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAjieA5LfQ9I
And, fearing, sought the deep; and still aloof he steer'd. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA7zSe7Vi3kn
With louder cries the captain call'd again: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAPcgak63CVX
"Bear to the rocky shore, and shun the main." 876Please respect copyright.PENANAlK7imdnlJI
He spoke, and, speaking, at his stern he saw 876Please respect copyright.PENANAVhO1vVUFD7
The bold Cloanthus near the shelvings draw. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAUJJFZ9gvko
Betwixt the mark and him the Scylla stood, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAmWMz4gEZxc
And in a closer compass plow'd the flood. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA9pE9IBF1Gy
He pass'd the mark; and, wheeling, got before: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAGswgTs1jGq
Gyas blasphem'd the gods, devoutly swore, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAyGUgrOAJNS
Cried out for anger, and his hair he tore. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAMG4LcyqTVT
Mindless of others' lives (so high was grown 876Please respect copyright.PENANA2vKbfyB1kg
His rising rage) and careless of his own, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAgSOn8GbUo2
The trembling dotard to the deck he drew; 876Please respect copyright.PENANA4PcRVo8rXI
Then hoisted up, and overboard he threw: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAlXD9zE6LBE
This done, he seiz'd the helm; his fellows cheer'd, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAdL21DeNaft
Turn'd short upon the shelfs, and madly steer'd. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAY1hYSuXl7S
Hardly his head the plunging pilot rears, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAOFhsSpBwwA
Clogg'd with his clothes, and cumber'd with his years: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAun4XAlGJnp
Now dropping wet, he climbs the cliff with pain. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAaEwCpK1r2l
The crowd, that saw him fall and float again, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA1QqbaNO2nA
Shout from the distant shore; and loudly laugh'd, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAMVCUJvv7W9
To see his heaving breast disgorge the briny draught. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAB301kqPc7J
The following Centaur, and the Dolphin's crew, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAHewWbshjY4
Their vanish'd hopes of victory renew; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAOlCCVqpw3W
While Gyas lags, they kindle in the race, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAAdpjgX9Diq
To reach the mark. Sergesthus takes the place; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAm5LmJLxi4J
Mnestheus pursues; and while around they wind, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAmu1MeLGwnJ
Comes up, not half his galley's length behind; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAAhM4BIUpeT
Then, on the deck, amidst his mates appear'd, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA3ae6y8H80D
And thus their drooping courage he cheer'd: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAk1UQrYJkpX
"My friends, and Hector's followers heretofore, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAzXqYAFPVOC
Exert your vigor; tug the lab'ring oar; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAIosIK18ha2
Stretch to your strokes, my still unconquer'd crew, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAsVMWD8fBEF
Whom from the flaming walls of Troy I drew. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAXSS0GGlOcP
In this, our common int'rest, let me find 876Please respect copyright.PENANAfqEJ9ou6nS
That strength of hand, that courage of the mind, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAPfbr1JofJK
As when you stemm'd the strong Malean flood, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAszGAdZ3tC0
And o'er the Syrtes' broken billows row'd. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA8eHWJqGji8
I seek not now the foremost palm to gain; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAIU8AiwC28P
Tho' yet- but, ah! that haughty wish is vain! 876Please respect copyright.PENANAxmCVbLKngs
Let those enjoy it whom the gods ordain. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAPGKTWluaVx
But to be last, the lags of all the race!- 876Please respect copyright.PENANAGsSNFLMHTt
Redeem yourselves and me from that disgrace." 876Please respect copyright.PENANAs3ZzWOlb8Z
Now, one and all, they tug amain; they row 876Please respect copyright.PENANAxppNUv6l6E
At the full stretch, and shake the brazen prow. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAnyBtURwKhv
The sea beneath 'em sinks; their lab'ring sides 876Please respect copyright.PENANAwA9KlpAwGO
Are swell'd, and sweat runs gutt'ring down in tides. 876Please respect copyright.PENANASeEJB9D9tT
Chance aids their daring with unhop'd success; 876Please respect copyright.PENANA6AFqGycWBD
Sergesthus, eager with his beak to press 876Please respect copyright.PENANAAv4Prw5lmO
Betwixt the rival galley and the rock, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAz2T6F7Wt7P
Shuts up th' unwieldly Centaur in the lock. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAH0xz9Bdf5R
The vessel struck; and, with the dreadful shock, 876Please respect copyright.PENANASjhWTUEMxz
Her oars she shiver'd, and her head she broke. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAr2TPCupshf
The trembling rowers from their banks arise, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAke91dzaoIu
And, anxious for themselves, renounce the prize. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAh0Gehmnsbo
With iron poles they heave her off the shores, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAPHtXJEUb0i
And gather from the sea their floating oars. 876Please respect copyright.PENANATk3rHNbydb
The crew of Mnestheus, with elated minds, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA1zm4AsexSk
Urge their success, and call the willing winds; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAWw3YyO2B9e
Then ply their oars, and cut their liquid way 876Please respect copyright.PENANAHGaAYIZlaQ
In larger compass on the roomy sea. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAbLd19c2Hii
As, when the dove her rocky hold forsakes, 876Please respect copyright.PENANARTXDeRdD10
Rous'd in a fright, her sounding wings she shakes; 876Please respect copyright.PENANA3572cvyZk8
The cavern rings with clatt'ring; out she flies, 876Please respect copyright.PENANARgoFT6F8yO
And leaves her callow care, and cleaves the skies: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAYBmjrGjZbC
At first she flutters; but at length she springs 876Please respect copyright.PENANA1gZokpEm9S
To smoother flight, and shoots upon her wings: 876Please respect copyright.PENANANyxbfkCeGh
So Mnestheus in the Dolphin cuts the sea; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAjmoq1JScX6
And, flying with a force, that force assists his way. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAkmO9QNsUOH
Sergesthus in the Centaur soon he pass'd, 876Please respect copyright.PENANApSn5WBT9GK
Wedg'd in the rocky shoals, and sticking fast. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAeE0kOd12K8
In vain the victor he with cries implores, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAIEgcoeC9EW
And practices to row with shatter'd oars. 876Please respect copyright.PENANADbqIqWJJqU
Then Mnestheus bears with Gyas, and outflies: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAFfhJN5ICpY
The ship, without a pilot, yields the prize. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAiT5Q7uiJxt
Unvanquish'd Scylla now alone remains; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAl4DLyRRwc1
Her he pursues, and all his vigor strains. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAECfZ93w7J6
Shouts from the fav'ring multitude arise; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAMuE1ztg56Q
Applauding Echo to the shouts replies; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAtROVnebrQY
Shouts, wishes, and applause run rattling thro' the skies. 876Please respect copyright.PENANApUT7B7XJY9
These clamors with disdain the Scylla heard, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAEYdQmivZkS
Much grudg'd the praise, but more the robb'd reward: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAGWp6OyLNNI
Resolv'd to hold their own, they mend their pace, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAxGr5gKNslh
All obstinate to die, or gain the race. 876Please respect copyright.PENANABmaxuhodkK
Rais'd with success, the Dolphin swiftly ran; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAV2KUGHftG6
For they can conquer, who believe they can. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAXZKKJXMqzp
Both urge their oars, and fortune both supplies, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAlONPaygeB9
And both perhaps had shar'd an equal prize; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAJDg3fLTizd
When to the seas Cloanthus holds his hands, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAYM1PLPvJBN
And succor from the wat'ry pow'rs demands: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAza0ISfUF3u
"Gods of the liquid realms, on which I row! 876Please respect copyright.PENANAQCHkGvmdK6
If, giv'n by you, the laurel bind my brow, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAJ7Gtp4ovuW
Assist to make me guilty of my vow! 876Please respect copyright.PENANAsF095I4ftQ
A snow-white bull shall on your shore be slain; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAjuzpJqqr1n
His offer'd entrails cast into the main, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAZOXD974BTJ
And ruddy wine, from golden goblets thrown, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAXNIio6xv6p
Your grateful gift and my return shall own." 876Please respect copyright.PENANAxMppsLWggE
The choir of nymphs, and Phorcus, from below, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAztBxFUGs2l
With virgin Panopea, heard his vow; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAHSZ9Su4wBv
And old Portunus, with his breadth of hand, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAWOHRxRy4hW
Push'd on, and sped the galley to the land. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAHu7QynTvUv
Swift as a shaft, or winged wind, she flies, 876Please respect copyright.PENANARFq3QJw8ar
And, darting to the port, obtains the prize. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAIQfxFBqkWO
The herald summons all, and then proclaims 876Please respect copyright.PENANAAJre7F1WOk
Cloanthus conqu'ror of the naval games. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAsXzF6kEIWA
The prince with laurel crowns the victor's head, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAwE3uojZOat
And three fat steers are to his vessel led, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAjVL8c5StDN
The ship's reward; with gen'rous wine beside, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAMUtwaCewXW
And sums of silver, which the crew divide. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA5OqC1mJxCU
The leaders are distinguish'd from the rest; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAMe6jISmKw7
The victor honor'd with a nobler vest, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAoIe6Phv8ic
Where gold and purple strive in equal rows, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA5qE9UgGH7h
And needlework its happy cost bestows. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA2htpTxx2kc
There Ganymede is wrought with living art, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAmWtV1wLHgm
Chasing thro' Ida's groves the trembling hart: 876Please respect copyright.PENANApiRCmhcd6d
Breathless he seems, yet eager to pursue; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAPaPB3pz48I
When from aloft descends, in open view, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAvHz3W9G4kp
The bird of Jove, and, sousing on his prey, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAk1hTlUGIrA
With crooked talons bears the boy away. 876Please respect copyright.PENANASOvZMRXETd
In vain, with lifted hands and gazing eyes, 876Please respect copyright.PENANABWbemRkVMW
His guards behold him soaring thro' the skies, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA5v3vRC6EQX
And dogs pursue his flight with imitated cries. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAqAd2OXAF70
Mnestheus the second victor was declar'd; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAKpWAjoIBAJ
And, summon'd there, the second prize he shard. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA8znSdcdZ0x
A coat of mail, brave Demoleus bore, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAb1orxoRImo
More brave Aeneas from his shoulders tore, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA5PY4yFr7e5
In single combat on the Trojan shore: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAayC3QVsmGZ
This was ordain'd for Mnestheus to possess; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAwfelcmU1YJ
In war for his defense, for ornament in peace. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAa9eZlOjkQd
Rich was the gift, and glorious to behold, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAUoJJmbYAjM
But yet so pond'rous with its plates of gold, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAo51A28wDmD
That scarce two servants could the weight sustain; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAf78DeJ96Pl
Yet, loaded thus, Demoleus o'er the plain 876Please respect copyright.PENANA1N31FfoBX2
Pursued and lightly seiz'd the Trojan train. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAYj58XEOlw7
The third, succeeding to the last reward, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAwecsYn9VPu
Two goodly bowls of massy silver shar'd, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA56C1rYU62c
With figures prominent, and richly wrought, 876Please respect copyright.PENANArK7DqfBs6S
And two brass caldrons from Dodona brought. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA1eCdmG2Z82
Thus all, rewarded by the hero's hands, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAGkA0lT1dAJ
Their conqu'ring temples bound with purple bands; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAIhgQSbOhlg
And now Sergesthus, clearing from the rock, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAy6lRrF9CbN
Brought back his galley shatter'd with the shock. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA3c4j40PFkn
Forlorn she look'd, without an aiding oar, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAO6AUrNIMzS
And, houted by the vulgar, made to shore. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAJB25lTudGy
As when a snake, surpris'd upon the road, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAOTboehydWo
Is crush'd athwart her body by the load 876Please respect copyright.PENANAANTRTSpF35
Of heavy wheels; or with a mortal wound 876Please respect copyright.PENANAULJcLrBSmp
Her belly bruis'd, and trodden to the ground: 876Please respect copyright.PENANA4tgWLWrJ2i
In vain, with loosen'd curls, she crawls along; 876Please respect copyright.PENANACs9lid4r1u
Yet, fierce above, she brandishes her tongue; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAj8x0rSEZsM
Glares with her eyes, and bristles with her scales; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAOdwB6PFfcx
But, groveling in the dust, her parts unsound she trails: 876Please respect copyright.PENANA2p39BjNCFT
So slowly to the port the Centaur tends, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAJmaiGuKWT9
But, what she wants in oars, with sails amends. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAInxkuqkhx1
Yet, for his galley sav'd, the grateful prince 876Please respect copyright.PENANAdZ12xkzNup
Is pleas'd th' unhappy chief to recompense. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAE4m1iTDmQP
Pholoe, the Cretan slave, rewards his care, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAkAQjAc5K79
Beauteous herself, with lovely twins as fair. 876Please respect copyright.PENANADRAQEXcAbo
From thence his way the Trojan hero bent 876Please respect copyright.PENANAtY5wcoHnRr
Into the neighb'ring plain, with mountains pent, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA69sBnsIRcm
Whose sides were shaded with surrounding wood. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAOBD0O8ZMgx
Full in the midst of this fair valley stood 876Please respect copyright.PENANAUWAk9n7aMG
A native theater, which, rising slow 876Please respect copyright.PENANAPk8a58379R
By just degrees, o'erlook'd the ground below. 876Please respect copyright.PENANACbO8VaoyTp
High on a sylvan throne the leader sate; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAXqz9dySCTZ
A num'rous train attend in solemn state. 876Please respect copyright.PENANApZa8BmBQrq
Here those that in the rapid course delight, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA4b1soR6usN
Desire of honor and the prize invite. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA59EahRvzxE
The rival runners without order stand; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAcjPpy0IUea
The Trojans mix'd with the Sicilian band. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAcxHGMe3R73
First Nisus, with Euryalus, appears; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAxSAjSXEyl3
Euryalus a boy of blooming years, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAwqY54fIGkH
With sprightly grace and equal beauty crown'd; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAA2stU97AA0
Nisus, for friendship to the youth renown'd. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAteNmnKBWh4
Diores next, of Priam's royal race, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAWL1MktkzFO
Then Salius joined with Patron, took their place; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAJv7YU8ruIt
(But Patron in Arcadia had his birth, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAcdiMYOrBde
And Salius his from Arcananian earth;) 876Please respect copyright.PENANAy2zoTdxpLp
Then two Sicilian youths- the names of these, 876Please respect copyright.PENANARBk7o0Ind8
Swift Helymus, and lovely Panopes: 876Please respect copyright.PENANArgxAZsOLfL
Both jolly huntsmen, both in forest bred, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAehA4WLBC5F
And owning old Acestes for their head; 876Please respect copyright.PENANA4Ns80FPgSh
With sev'ral others of ignobler name, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAqKkDMUAcls
Whom time has not deliver'd o'er to fame. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAIPuLl2u4BN
To these the hero thus his thoughts explain'd, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA5fD5qnqUWa
In words which gen'ral approbation gain'd: 876Please respect copyright.PENANA9lEKyt50ze
"One common largess is for all design'd, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAHrbp0FgP8q
(The vanquish'd and the victor shall be join'd,) 876Please respect copyright.PENANApaU7Z138Rg
Two darts of polish'd steel and Gnosian wood, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAwYdAspoLiL
A silver-studded ax, alike bestow'd. 876Please respect copyright.PENANASf0YqzrDD9
The foremost three have olive wreaths decreed: 876Please respect copyright.PENANASubEwJUu8M
The first of these obtains a stately steed, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAooq8TfvdFR
Adorn'd with trappings; and the next in fame, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA3y7zY5wPeT
The quiver of an Amazonian dame, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAMk6iiRNwSA
With feather'd Thracian arrows well supplied: 876Please respect copyright.PENANA6QxYu64gMG
A golden belt shall gird his manly side, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA5os0I7lJaZ
Which with a sparkling diamond shall be tied. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAJuL3SMsohK
The third this Grecian helmet shall content." 876Please respect copyright.PENANAZS9OteYaSF
He said. To their appointed base they went; 876Please respect copyright.PENANA9yjb5xd1Wm
With beating hearts th' expected sign receive, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAyp0uixUkcW
And, starting all at once, the barrier leave. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAowKOjJcwue
Spread out, as on the winged winds, they flew, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAy4kWHFHr19
And seiz'd the distant goal with greedy view. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAn2Lb1HBx3A
Shot from the crowd, swift Nisus all o'erpass'd; 876Please respect copyright.PENANADQ1SsNBgtl
Nor storms, nor thunder, equal half his haste. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAi52mSk9u5B
The next, but tho' the next, yet far disjoin'd, 876Please respect copyright.PENANACsiHhTgnOp
Came Salius, and Euryalus behind; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAMAA4OApw7W
Then Helymus, whom young Diores plied, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAMRvaJIqADb
Step after step, and almost side by side, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAtS1gE7ACWd
His shoulders pressing; and, in longer space, 876Please respect copyright.PENANATSjEG4RDdP
Had won, or left at least a dubious race. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAWozzgx2ESR
Now, spent, the goal they almost reach at last, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAJV2CqoAEje
When eager Nisus, hapless in his haste, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAJexqAJOrXJ
Slipp'd first, and, slipping, fell upon the plain, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAcGSZZPXfCY
Soak'd with the blood of oxen newly slain. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA75GIBFLh1H
The careless victor had not mark'd his way; 876Please respect copyright.PENANArgwyhWHjod
But, treading where the treach'rous puddle lay, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAA75N2AXIkx
His heels flew up; and on the grassy floor 876Please respect copyright.PENANA7n6AKy5wlx
He fell, besmear'd with filth and holy gore. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA0XT5gvalSl
Not mindless then, Euryalus, of thee, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAkG2WOuH9JC
Nor of the sacred bonds of amity, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAmmReo8dQqy
He strove th' immediate rival's hope to cross, 876Please respect copyright.PENANANpIpXsrugg
And caught the foot of Salius as he rose. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAKGKUNrYUoV
So Salius lay extended on the plain; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAqj2K71UarP
Euryalus springs out, the prize to gain, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAKhSZvO5nNo
And leaves the crowd: applauding peals attend 876Please respect copyright.PENANAjHesw40egc
The victor to the goal, who vanquish'd by his friend. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAN4H5umvrev
Next Helymus; and then Diores came, 876Please respect copyright.PENANArbrKzZekN0
By two misfortunes made the third in fame. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAdWTZg5Gelp
But Salius enters, and, exclaiming loud 876Please respect copyright.PENANADb8uhl0iJm
For justice, deafens and disturbs the crowd; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAgrriIxhwEd
Urges his cause may in the court be heard; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAHSEShMq84a
And pleads the prize is wrongfully conferr'd. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAS1TuWTlB7n
But favor for Euryalus appears; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAJ46N8BNN9L
His blooming beauty, with his tender tears, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAXOR9Gz8o5m
Had brib'd the judges for the promis'd prize. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA7gxf3s0fiK
Besides, Diores fills the court with cries, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAWLHwD11qVf
Who vainly reaches at the last reward, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAoLXCJW1Afk
If the first palm on Salius be conferr'd. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAFvkKLpFxoe
Then thus the prince: "Let no disputes arise: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAJNu4RuBVXd
Where fortune plac'd it, I award the prize. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAH4xIxuWxqb
But fortune's errors give me leave to mend, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAuSJxQl8lTp
At least to pity my deserving friend." 876Please respect copyright.PENANAuH3BEWLsjY
He said, and, from among the spoils, he draws 876Please respect copyright.PENANA7mTLAgmU9P
(Pond'rous with shaggy mane and golden paws) 876Please respect copyright.PENANAl8PA69ilJV
A lion's hide: to Salius this he gives. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAfteq3lOsGb
Nisus with envy sees the gift, and grieves. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAzLh5DnQiVu
"If such rewards to vanquish'd men are due." 876Please respect copyright.PENANAVfGljDqWOK
He said, "and falling is to rise by you, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA7TWuSwwNO7
What prize may Nisus from your bounty claim, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAcMHBd7JkHe
Who merited the first rewards and fame? 876Please respect copyright.PENANANSt5q3r7Dp
In falling, both an equal fortune tried; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAdGbh0RuFzT
Would fortune for my fall so well provide!" 876Please respect copyright.PENANACBIIPNAF1N
With this he pointed to his face, and show'd 876Please respect copyright.PENANAfBcd97BJ70
His hand and all his habit smear'd with blood. 876Please respect copyright.PENANACtgpiZYHnR
Th' indulgent father of the people smil'd, 876Please respect copyright.PENANATZEKxQXTyg
And caus'd to be produc'd an ample shield, 876Please respect copyright.PENANASYI4fsvpD4
Of wondrous art, by Didymaon wrought, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAKVLvrySKry
Long since from Neptune's bars in triumph brought. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAYBLHWduWUU
This giv'n to Nisus, he divides the rest, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAWH2wkPGwHs
And equal justice in his gifts express'd. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAgWhMZFsysR
The race thus ended, and rewards bestow'd, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAxZzN0FJfMZ
Once more the princes bespeaks th' attentive crowd: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAXaOt0YCZ6R
"If there he here whose dauntless courage dare 876Please respect copyright.PENANAbWIGUh3OLQ
In gauntlet-fight, with limbs and body bare, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA6Q86fC7olc
His opposite sustain in open view, 876Please respect copyright.PENANALOYcLloQk8
Stand forth the champion, and the games renew. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAghc9gNyzbU
Two prizes I propose, and thus divide: 876Please respect copyright.PENANARvdiczwuoc
A bull with gilded horns, and fillets tied, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAbSz3xbVpCG
Shall be the portion of the conqu'ring chief; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAPpnnrbOwvA
A sword and helm shall cheer the loser's grief." 876Please respect copyright.PENANAAGWlBkpVQ1
Then haughty Dares in the lists appears; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAE0EfQFLCbV
Stalking he strides, his head erected bears: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAjLefiN1hGK
His nervous arms the weighty gauntlet wield, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAuTbxoX5zuW
And loud applauses echo thro' the field. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAegnhqrAjDe
Dares alone in combat us'd to stand 876Please respect copyright.PENANAT03wohaQZP
The match of mighty Paris, hand to hand; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAvDjUqlspxq
The same, at Hector's fun'rals, undertook 876Please respect copyright.PENANAXzLoLlF8jP
Gigantic Butes, of th' Amycian stock, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAD3D4IUdZFR
And, by the stroke of his resistless hand, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAGAyzxVhf3k
Stretch'd the vast bulk upon the yellow sand. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA17FiTNVANY
Such Dares was; and such he strode along, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAPScoYuJbAg
And drew the wonder of the gazing throng. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAyZIXF0Kd2W
His brawny back and ample breast he shows, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAuyLYzy4R1M
His lifted arms around his head he throws, 876Please respect copyright.PENANASBpRcBGzzI
And deals in whistling air his empty blows. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAFUP7PXuXE4
His match is sought; but, thro' the trembling band, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAbeigWnK1m0
Not one dares answer to the proud demand. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA44sZ5aDCs4
Presuming of his force, with sparkling eyes 876Please respect copyright.PENANASQNnyYMRY6
Already he devours the promis'd prize. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAkSdzBiV4m5
He claims the bull with awless insolence, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAQtj6J8yy2Q
And having seiz'd his horns, accosts the prince: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAeYQEC5Gt1f
"If none my matchless valor dares oppose, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAYK9oWGPSEN
How long shall Dares wait his dastard foes? 876Please respect copyright.PENANApkGucZPNNy
Permit me, chief, permit without delay, 876Please respect copyright.PENANANvQCWZWAba
To lead this uncontended gift away." 876Please respect copyright.PENANAAzV54cNHrR
The crowd assents, and with redoubled cries 876Please respect copyright.PENANAl8X0OYfqGX
For the proud challenger demands the prize. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAFFvzKh3ejy
Acestes, fir'd with just disdain, to see 876Please respect copyright.PENANALS28wNcyKr
The palm usurp'd without a victory, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA7lAqNw1e5V
Reproach'd Entellus thus, who sate beside, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA3BvROerRXl
And heard and saw, unmov'd, the Trojan's pride: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAnsUZyn4qSE
"Once, but in vain, a champion of renown, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAagry8E8Woe
So tamely can you bear the ravish'd crown, 876Please respect copyright.PENANALorp0MX9Oq
A prize in triumph borne before your sight, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAkYD1flCog8
And shun, for fear, the danger of the fight? 876Please respect copyright.PENANAN8SL87HbSE
Where is our Eryx now, the boasted name, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAVCocD8djTf
The god who taught your thund'ring arm the game? 876Please respect copyright.PENANAn05E0ebP4N
Where now your baffled honor? Where the spoil 876Please respect copyright.PENANA1dihRU5KtA
That fill'd your house, and fame that fill'd our isle?" 876Please respect copyright.PENANAXj1w8ylrCT
Entellus, thus: "My soul is still the same, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA48iaBSX6uJ
Unmov'd with fear, and mov'd with martial fame; 876Please respect copyright.PENANARQWq5tGU9E
But my chill blood is curdled in my veins, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAXa4XWSnUtX
And scarce the shadow of a man remains. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAsyJAf4Ookr
O could I turn to that fair prime again, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAf5Ii31blCr
That prime of which this boaster is so vain, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAL8xfQ1FSwR
The brave, who this decrepid age defies, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAetBGVgznXr
Should feel my force, without the promis'd prize." 876Please respect copyright.PENANAL8Pgyngq1z
He said; and, rising at the word, he threw 876Please respect copyright.PENANABqu5sUxIZN
Two pond'rous gauntlets down in open view; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAbeOVoxIzQS
Gauntlets which Eryx wont in fight to wield, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAyjKFwf53jq
And sheathe his hands with in the listed field. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAPor7x4xeHz
With fear and wonder seiz'd, the crowd beholds 876Please respect copyright.PENANAwRm7LSAqmj
The gloves of death, with sev'n distinguish'd folds 876Please respect copyright.PENANAuWCLMyi6Wu
Of tough bull hides; the space within is spread 876Please respect copyright.PENANAuNgaYCzyH1
With iron, or with loads of heavy lead: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAt35yO2R2bt
Dares himself was daunted at the sight, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAVIiJbEoyxt
Renounc'd his challenge, and refus'd to fight. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAW4uQlCBQWp
Astonish'd at their weight, the hero stands, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAg483TNqnlv
And pois'd the pond'rous engines in his hands. 876Please respect copyright.PENANARMBmnyQc9B
"What had your wonder," said Entellus, "been, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA8erghXVyR8
Had you the gauntlets of Alcides seen, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAwl7G5jjjtn
Or view'd the stern debate on this unhappy green! 876Please respect copyright.PENANA9B2HVDJ4d4
These which I bear your brother Eryx bore, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAUHgG3jS8IU
Still mark'd with batter'd brains and mingled gore. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAequn5SxKv3
With these he long sustain'd th' Herculean arm; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAonGdTs1XNQ
And these I wielded while my blood was warm, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA6GQf4cNobd
This languish'd frame while better spirits fed, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAdLamowJ6Yz
Ere age unstrung my nerves, or time o'ersnow'd my head. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA6MORHeNjo1
But if the challenger these arms refuse, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAM0AlJMb9nU
And cannot wield their weight, or dare not use; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAlY5KfFXTDN
If great Aeneas and Acestes join 876Please respect copyright.PENANAzyFdHEeOi3
In his request, these gauntlets I resign; 876Please respect copyright.PENANApe0psEms6l
Let us with equal arms perform the fight, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA3RAgnkcGs0
And let him leave to fear, since I resign my right." 876Please respect copyright.PENANAR2v5NTl9dO
This said, Entellus for the strife prepares; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAkfN8Ot1D5y
Stripp'd of his quilted coat, his body bares; 876Please respect copyright.PENANACzXorqitwG
Compos'd of mighty bones and brawn he stands, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAyvnE5UG21t
A goodly tow'ring object on the sands. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAuzLnO6IorH
Then just Aeneas equal arms supplied, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAUrOjb200Wc
Which round their shoulders to their wrists they tied. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAtx1mIiyT0S
Both on the tiptoe stand, at full extent, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAdsNwBRvhZ4
Their arms aloft, their bodies inly bent; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAguuTqUMFSw
Their heads from aiming blows they bear afar; 876Please respect copyright.PENANABWvPgErCoY
With clashing gauntlets then provoke the war. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAMyFHhQZHw6
One on his youth and pliant limbs relies; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAUGSnhbEso5
One on his sinews and his giant size. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAuuB3Ea44iD
The last is stiff with age, his motion slow; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAvNLm7kYJS6
He heaves for breath, he staggers to and fro, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAtOwpApPbMf
And clouds of issuing smoke his nostrils loudly blow. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAON2yhHK5Gg
Yet equal in success, they ward, they strike; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAKd2QQj07ze
Their ways are diff'rent, but their art alike. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAmzXGW6nXgA
Before, behind, the blows are dealt; around 876Please respect copyright.PENANAaOKFOvRLxB
Their hollow sides the rattling thumps resound. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAlgFS4BYxjb
A storm of strokes, well meant, with fury flies, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAnFFvMUQNBH
And errs about their temples, ears, and eyes. 876Please respect copyright.PENANABZy5ossumE
Nor always errs; for oft the gauntlet draws 876Please respect copyright.PENANAVazzLcYxRn
A sweeping stroke along the crackling jaws. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAXJGa2cYkIU
Heavy with age, Entellus stands his ground, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA9Ej3N4F30U
But with his warping body wards the wound. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAwRUITbJYpr
His hand and watchful eye keep even pace; 876Please respect copyright.PENANA7D7XlYmxzP
While Dares traverses and shifts his place, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAvYC1ZVBp8V
And, like a captain who beleaguers round 876Please respect copyright.PENANANmShpM0F0b
Some strong-built castle on a rising ground, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAOPXsz9tGDW
Views all th' approaches with observing eyes: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAZobp6c6fOp
This and that other part in vain he tries, 876Please respect copyright.PENANACYEEAI9qrv
And more on industry than force relies. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAGgaAghoWWQ
With hands on high, Entellus threats the foe; 876Please respect copyright.PENANA1R4ivdW6E2
But Dares watch'd the motion from below, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA6WAOKeuPQh
And slipp'd aside, and shunn'd the long descending blow. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAPyfocqoGIQ
Entellus wastes his forces on the wind, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAF1ripmOP6y
And, thus deluded of the stroke design'd, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAZkXE5fNNf2
Headlong and heavy fell; his ample breast 876Please respect copyright.PENANA9t4gO7o2NO
And weighty limbs his ancient mother press'd. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAJYV0NQ9vSZ
So falls a hollow pine, that long had stood 876Please respect copyright.PENANAiCJ53A8yTW
On Ida's height, or Erymanthus' wood, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAKbzrzo5qd2
Torn from the roots. The diff'ring nations rise, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAyTuDLVJldl
And shouts and mingled murmurs rend the skies, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAeSNr9pU979
Acestus runs with eager haste, to raise 876Please respect copyright.PENANA7wucNp1wEV
The fall'n companion of his youthful days. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA97cX2v9uiG
Dauntless he rose, and to the fight return'd; 876Please respect copyright.PENANADcPBPCypeU
With shame his glowing cheeks, his eyes with fury burn'd. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAcnLTGYEWim
Disdain and conscious virtue fir'd his breast, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA6KYQv5bTZI
And with redoubled force his foe he press'd. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAuk9pl6KqLq
He lays on load with either hand, amain, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAPvMPUQMPZf
And headlong drives the Trojan o'er the plain; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAOSKDxxX9TH
Nor stops, nor stays; nor rest nor breath allows; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAGgcgHmKnSB
But storms of strokes descend about his brows, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAcMPWVfmtDy
A rattling tempest, and a hail of blows. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA90xJTcNi5l
But now the prince, who saw the wild increase 876Please respect copyright.PENANA18f3Dn7Eng
Of wounds, commands the combatants to cease, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA1x48dic3jw
And bounds Entellus' wrath, and bids the peace. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAxSLkvOUktT
First to the Trojan, spent with toil, he came, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAIr14PKT0T3
And sooth'd his sorrow for the suffer'd shame. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAmciAzKj6qt
"What fury seiz'd my friend? The gods," said he, 876Please respect copyright.PENANATHktKWy29d
"To him propitious, and averse to thee, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAHgARKbunVB
Have giv'n his arm superior force to thine. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAOIV2fVfF8a
'T is madness to contend with strength divine." 876Please respect copyright.PENANAxNCEHmQpK4
The gauntlet fight thus ended, from the shore 876Please respect copyright.PENANAWsYVNF1cK9
His faithful friends unhappy Dares bore: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAcdOOMmxhiE
His mouth and nostrils pour'd a purple flood, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAVaWrUhCJsV
And pounded teeth came rushing with his blood. 876Please respect copyright.PENANASuDvPgVqfM
Faintly he stagger'd thro' the hissing throng, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAOyktBAsyDN
And hung his head, and trail'd his legs along. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAVoD3zV1TKu
The sword and casque are carried by his train; 876Please respect copyright.PENANALPfxSnXDOP
But with his foe the palm and ox remain. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAcAmNQzeGOy
The champion, then, before Aeneas came, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA16pEqchpEM
Proud of his prize, but prouder of his fame: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAAs59GJSHwe
"O goddess-born, and you, Dardanian host, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAXITvlwi0AG
Mark with attention, and forgive my boast; 876Please respect copyright.PENANASKlSTdIkZk
Learn what I was, by what remains; and know 876Please respect copyright.PENANAG8wjRmCeo7
From what impending fate you sav'd my foe." 876Please respect copyright.PENANAs1mbNQN4Dc
Sternly he spoke, and then confronts the bull; 876Please respect copyright.PENANACn6mTq5dTz
And, on his ample forehead aiming full, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAd84rwCCA3h
The deadly stroke, descending, pierc'd the skull. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAam5iABSWMZ
Down drops the beast, nor needs a second wound, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA2Qq5J34KNl
But sprawls in pangs of death, and spurns the ground. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAqnhGj3FSLE
Then, thus: "In Dares' stead I offer this. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAh7Lgs255wA
Eryx, accept a nobler sacrifice; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAiUmSnCuu0p
Take the last gift my wither'd arms can yield: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAn1mXBBag0b
Thy gauntlets I resign, and here renounce the field." 876Please respect copyright.PENANAnPIgcRWy64
This done, Aeneas orders, for the close, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAWfb5BDjU3U
The strife of archers with contending bows. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA4UCbGG3jC4
The mast Sergesthus' shatter'd galley bore 876Please respect copyright.PENANAsrk2suVZs9
With his own hands he raises on the shore. 876Please respect copyright.PENANACNo5quIIbe
A flutt'ring dove upon the top they tie, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAirirTYZYWL
The living mark at which their arrows fly. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA972WffT3aK
The rival archers in a line advance, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAW11D1sqqyh
Their turn of shooting to receive from chance. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAsZJBnvo4AY
A helmet holds their names; the lots are drawn: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAQQ62U4r8k0
On the first scroll was read Hippocoon. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAz0FOVgeXoQ
The people shout. Upon the next was found 876Please respect copyright.PENANAhsJKChQ5no
Young Mnestheus, late with naval honors crown'd. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAv1Vx12UCVV
The third contain'd Eurytion's noble name, 876Please respect copyright.PENANANZOWquEhEG
Thy brother, Pandarus, and next in fame, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA8lFaydyrsZ
Whom Pallas urg'd the treaty to confound, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAeoCsMfIzNI
And send among the Greeks a feather'd wound. 876Please respect copyright.PENANANBqwfpREFg
Acestes in the bottom last remain'd, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAxzHr4yTGIw
Whom not his age from youthful sports restrain'd. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAiBLAZYFUAN
Soon all with vigor bend their trusty bows, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAGcI2qio28o
And from the quiver each his arrow chose. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA96FAfJV6rJ
Hippocoon's was the first: with forceful sway 876Please respect copyright.PENANAYdX0uYtTWn
It flew, and, whizzing, cut the liquid way. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAbHmrlQNRBQ
Fix'd in the mast the feather'd weapon stands: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAAOR6q1vSwV
The fearful pigeon flutters in her bands, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAWrEKwiv3l2
And the tree trembled, and the shouting cries 876Please respect copyright.PENANAISJqHRLUnj
Of the pleas'd people rend the vaulted skies. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAHAoGwn0hSa
Then Mnestheus to the head his arrow drove, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA3FMI6nW0Qg
With lifted eyes, and took his aim above, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAhZhmN1AeGK
But made a glancing shot, and missed the dove; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAV59GFkm5Rz
Yet miss'd so narrow, that he cut the cord 876Please respect copyright.PENANAjbJYmw8KB6
Which fasten'd by the foot the flitting bird. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAFxlg4grOda
The captive thus releas'd, away she flies, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAdqYIQYlXfJ
And beats with clapping wings the yielding skies. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA7yHqUAjujJ
His bow already bent, Eurytion stood; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAAcB8z2VM0q
And, having first invok'd his brother god, 876Please respect copyright.PENANACUXiG7PJsl
His winged shaft with eager haste he sped. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAH0bZ3QiAOy
The fatal message reach'd her as she fled: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAyypKILutRU
She leaves her life aloft; she strikes the ground, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAnbKoxCbayD
And renders back the weapon in the wound. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAf0Nl71JUPY
Acestes, grudging at his lot, remains, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAPlfjSkTqbg
Without a prize to gratify his pains. 876Please respect copyright.PENANArpBWdNhtfg
Yet, shooting upward, sends his shaft, to show 876Please respect copyright.PENANA9O1gbqtC2o
An archer's art, and boast his twanging bow. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAInwJsfWmEb
The feather'd arrow gave a dire portent, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA3gf3RGczr2
And latter augurs judge from this event. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAGMbRX3od2y
Chaf'd by the speed, it fir'd; and, as it flew, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAhRaoOJZKzc
A trail of following flames ascending drew: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAGCx6jz6alr
Kindling they mount, and mark the shiny way; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAZ5PbAs2E2i
Across the skies as falling meteors play, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAUPhbFdnEJE
And vanish into wind, or in a blaze decay. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAn3NCA9Ngm7
The Trojans and Sicilians wildly stare, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAeNIKCw7Bh9
And, trembling, turn their wonder into pray'r. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAQKvaTUElWB
The Dardan prince put on a smiling face, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAAassPghVMl
And strain'd Acestes with a close embrace; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAM4fV8tVfrd
Then, hon'ring him with gifts above the rest, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAWnBxIJPjZv
Turn'd the bad omen, nor his fears confess'd. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAY2O7BHOPUq
"The gods," said he, "this miracle have wrought, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAb32F5LROVw
And order'd you the prize without the lot. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAn1kyNvAYBx
Accept this goblet, rough with figur'd gold, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAYkSUKQvUn7
Which Thracian Cisseus gave my sire of old: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAnOhelkV8yI
This pledge of ancient amity receive, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAnOT40TZZDw
Which to my second sire I justly give." 876Please respect copyright.PENANAYHsVxIrRmL
He said, and, with the trumpets' cheerful sound, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA0Wa1AHY4V6
Proclaim'd him victor, and with laurel-crown'd. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAYHzgw6LbH5
Nor good Eurytion envied him the prize, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAvgV2DHtvEs
Tho' he transfix'd the pigeon in the skies. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAmJdm5uRxyj
Who cut the line, with second gifts was grac'd; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAS1M6PBndAt
The third was his whose arrow pierc'd the mast. 876Please respect copyright.PENANARf4gYXRLZr
The chief, before the games were wholly done, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAaxzGedMMSn
Call'd Periphantes, tutor to his son, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAK3RJFC7IIV
And whisper'd thus: "With speed Ascanius find; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAT9zciZuXk4
And, if his childish troop be ready join'd, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAqYA6UvjMnN
On horseback let him grace his grandsire's day, 876Please respect copyright.PENANArlfEPVTzO7
And lead his equals arm'd in just array." 876Please respect copyright.PENANAuxCdrfymQN
He said; and, calling out, the cirque he clears. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAVFvJ9fwKe8
The crowd withdrawn, an open plain appears. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAfae5oSqQ2O
And now the noble youths, of form divine, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAHvALqm2T9H
Advance before their fathers, in a line; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAIMzFytYqxb
The riders grace the steeds; the steeds with glory shine. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA5aDWfEDgbr
Thus marching on in military pride, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA9R9xC7NnQu
Shouts of applause resound from side to side. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAPE76xG7Hit
Their casques adorn'd with laurel wreaths they wear, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAaJOxkStR89
Each brandishing aloft a cornel spear. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAB2DgOuFJFh
Some at their backs their gilded quivers bore; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAvpceLdiCaN
Their chains of burnish'd gold hung down before. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAbDyZFD3AbP
Three graceful troops they form'd upon the green; 876Please respect copyright.PENANA1Q6W0aEw2c
Three graceful leaders at their head were seen; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAkUYdmrJRrF
Twelve follow'd ev'ry chief, and left a space between. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA9QUOWDCPnH
The first young Priam led; a lovely boy, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAA9KinveXhN
Whose grandsire was th' unhappy king of Troy; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAnXqCqcfY9E
His race in after times was known to fame, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAp8ue9kJpfq
New honors adding to the Latian name; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAw9NzyJp59X
And well the royal boy his Thracian steed became. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAATDt2ZxQxr
White were the fetlocks of his feet before, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAOhmHqBmKiF
And on his front a snowy star he bore. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAliTEDrF5K4
Then beauteous Atys, with Iulus bred, 876Please respect copyright.PENANADpyuWEDNZL
Of equal age, the second squadron led. 876Please respect copyright.PENANACHP38ahzy5
The last in order, but the first in place, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAmotP9tHwXd
First in the lovely features of his face, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAfSA5kylJZa
Rode fair Ascanius on a fiery steed, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAjknTeQ2KcC
Queen Dido's gift, and of the Tyrian breed. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAChknnJ4TiN
Sure coursers for the rest the king ordains, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAZ1KWoheuG7
With golden bits adorn'd, and purple reins. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAebiVz4pLLx
The pleas'd spectators peals of shouts renew, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAYBwaj7ktGe
And all the parents in the children view; 876Please respect copyright.PENANADcsRIDvc1E
Their make, their motions, and their sprightly grace, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAKeFhwRcVTj
And hopes and fears alternate in their face. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAcXYFmR4Kcx
Th' unfledg'd commanders and their martial train 876Please respect copyright.PENANARwj1LpVN9r
First make the circuit of the sandy plain 876Please respect copyright.PENANAofbdBzjYbN
Around their sires, and, at th' appointed sign, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA5ncerXgdUp
Drawn up in beauteous order, form a line. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAzFhCNhZXVs
The second signal sounds, the troop divides 876Please respect copyright.PENANAG1bhoiRz1I
In three distinguish'd parts, with three distinguish'd guides 876Please respect copyright.PENANA5QRDpNugBu
Again they close, and once again disjoin; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAWMNQu9fCwT
In troop to troop oppos'd, and line to line. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAYElqGH1wOH
They meet; they wheel; they throw their darts afar 876Please respect copyright.PENANAR15m7NCcic
With harmless rage and well-dissembled war. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAjkNTr9209J
Then in a round the mingled bodies run: 876Please respect copyright.PENANA41sEWitRoc
Flying they follow, and pursuing shun; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAXZBfuw3tHY
Broken, they break; and, rallying, they renew 876Please respect copyright.PENANAoSwGE5Y6Bn
In other forms the military shew. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAaItMDDb72g
At last, in order, undiscern'd they join, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAdxMkOBXlrZ
And march together in a friendly line. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAXVkwzmzgJI
And, as the Cretan labyrinth of old, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA4HbItmn98Y
With wand'ring ways and many a winding fold, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAs0SkXSf6qY
Involv'd the weary feet, without redress, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAfBkxQgvmty
In a round error, which denied recess; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAslIcj8OoTx
So fought the Trojan boys in warlike play, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAHzyvetXAxL
Turn'd and return'd, and still a diff'rent way. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAowx9RP5aLK
Thus dolphins in the deep each other chase 876Please respect copyright.PENANAzCE14iaJ8Q
In circles, when they swim around the wat'ry race. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAIZoRl2VUoZ
This game, these carousels, Ascanius taught; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAOTsq8Iwasa
And, building Alba, to the Latins brought; 876Please respect copyright.PENANATb5Jt98GSv
Shew'd what he learn'd: the Latin sires impart 876Please respect copyright.PENANAVCKLLrgDJk
To their succeeding sons the graceful art; 876Please respect copyright.PENANA1rKzNmCiY3
From these imperial Rome receiv'd the game, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAE2GuTdYzC2
Which Troy, the youths the Trojan troop, they name. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAXSFK5q0xi8
Thus far the sacred sports they celebrate: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAYDkEs4YUuF
But Fortune soon resum'd her ancient hate; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAJmkfsUYsQC
For, while they pay the dead his annual dues, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAcASLoXzIpa
Those envied rites Saturnian Juno views; 876Please respect copyright.PENANArKVS2HBn6z
And sends the goddess of the various bow, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAqkRcJY82qN
To try new methods of revenge below; 876Please respect copyright.PENANASFg3Xi63In
Supplies the winds to wing her airy way, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAH47AyJmzuk
Where in the port secure the navy lay. 876Please respect copyright.PENANALr0CJBfCTQ
Swiftly fair Iris down her arch descends, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA71uDHYbAcS
And, undiscern'd, her fatal voyage ends. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAUQ4zaTdkEZ
She saw the gath'ring crowd; and, gliding thence, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAwXpPYZoak2
The desart shore, and fleet without defense. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAp96ZrpagoU
The Trojan matrons, on the sands alone, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAikC6Sy81BH
With sighs and tears Anchises' death bemoan; 876Please respect copyright.PENANArpDplGNZTC
Then, turning to the sea their weeping eyes, 876Please respect copyright.PENANARlO4l6OhA8
Their pity to themselves renews their cries. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAZSQxLGJ0G1
"Alas!" said one, "what oceans yet remain 876Please respect copyright.PENANA6llDl2cvIn
For us to sail! what labors to sustain!" 876Please respect copyright.PENANAzIB3Fvfe19
All take the word, and, with a gen'ral groan, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAyS9rQX3BAn
Implore the gods for peace, and places of their own. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAynPsbV4Zuw
The goddess, great in mischief, views their pains, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAALH1J7447f
And in a woman's form her heav'nly limbs restrains. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA7GoKKtNGlK
In face and shape old Beroe she became, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAX31llVb9I3
Doryclus' wife, a venerable dame, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAXRTVCsqFrG
Once blest with riches, and a mother's name. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA85TisxthYQ
Thus chang'd, amidst the crying crowd she ran, 876Please respect copyright.PENANABz6jYYnhkS
Mix'd with the matrons, and these words began: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAJL3Z5GS1wc
"O wretched we, whom not the Grecian pow'r, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAVfxv7ogwmi
Nor flames, destroy'd, in Troy's unhappy hour! 876Please respect copyright.PENANAhe6mdUX484
O wretched we, reserv'd by cruel fate, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA66xe7K9JdG
Beyond the ruins of the sinking state! 876Please respect copyright.PENANA8K4DibuRjP
Now sev'n revolving years are wholly run, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA8XzND2ZC97
Since this improsp'rous voyage we begun; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAyLcjotUAj1
Since, toss'd from shores to shores, from lands to lands, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAZosOJSFgXu
Inhospitable rocks and barren sands, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAUpyMBCcIQI
Wand'ring in exile thro' the stormy sea, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAFkYLNOUD3g
We search in vain for flying Italy. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAWIj51V0yjR
Now cast by fortune on this kindred land, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAU6KESdRCcB
What should our rest and rising walls withstand, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA3tqrD9MtIC
Or hinder here to fix our banish'd band? 876Please respect copyright.PENANA6Itho5Bejz
O country lost, and gods redeem'd in vain, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA6PBq7WdF2h
If still in endless exile we remain! 876Please respect copyright.PENANArYWaJtl0Fz
Shall we no more the Trojan walls renew, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA7dt0WKeaSY
Or streams of some dissembled Simois view! 876Please respect copyright.PENANAXAUpZsrGqs
Haste, join with me, th' unhappy fleet consume! 876Please respect copyright.PENANAkhg6YbkeDw
Cassandra bids; and I declare her doom. 876Please respect copyright.PENANALIISl4ibGP
In sleep I saw her; she supplied my hands 876Please respect copyright.PENANAnDCbVamW9u
(For this I more than dreamt) with flaming brands: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAqeRHSniSQ8
'With these,' said she, 'these wand'ring ships destroy: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAkuvKHb1yzh
These are your fatal seats, and this your Troy.' 876Please respect copyright.PENANA4IMPtxhTsf
Time calls you now; the precious hour employ: 876Please respect copyright.PENANARQvenkHIY2
Slack not the good presage, while Heav'n inspires 876Please respect copyright.PENANAYVSbmCuLbH
Our minds to dare, and gives the ready fires. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA6bXVfLXYnA
See! Neptune's altars minister their brands: 876Please respect copyright.PENANA8wzgyFopkS
The god is pleas'd; the god supplies our hands." 876Please respect copyright.PENANAT1bzEhPkeo
Then from the pile a flaming fire she drew, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAlF8t6LxQQC
And, toss'd in air, amidst the galleys threw. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAE96VkfUYER
Wrapp'd in amaze, the matrons wildly stare: 876Please respect copyright.PENANASyLpNme5zX
Then Pyrgo, reverenc'd for her hoary hair, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAD4aY5lAiMz
Pyrgo, the nurse of Priam's num'rous race: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAOyPXjP9fme
"No Beroe this, tho' she belies her face! 876Please respect copyright.PENANAt2oEldJsSe
What terrors from her frowning front arise! 876Please respect copyright.PENANA7GDySRgWLw
Behold a goddess in her ardent eyes! 876Please respect copyright.PENANAagKp8VmPsF
What rays around her heav'nly face are seen! 876Please respect copyright.PENANA8Pu3qZ5mWS
Mark her majestic voice, and more than mortal mien! 876Please respect copyright.PENANAf5xlbVP5U4
Beroe but now I left, whom, pin'd with pain, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAZESOsvyuBU
Her age and anguish from these rites detain," 876Please respect copyright.PENANAjkAcGe1Y8J
She said. The matrons, seiz'd with new amaze, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAPJVp7yLIBW
Roll their malignant eyes, and on the navy gaze. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAYw8cRK4W36
They fear, and hope, and neither part obey: 876Please respect copyright.PENANA2XmHZQ5eV5
They hope the fated land, but fear the fatal way. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA1M0egQtY2d
The goddess, having done her task below, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAvwTjGRQWB3
Mounts up on equal wings, and bends her painted bow. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAcOiJkegJ7e
Struck with the sight, and seiz'd with rage divine, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAWwhwTT7wL8
The matrons prosecute their mad design: 876Please respect copyright.PENANA3TutbrAJbf
They shriek aloud; they snatch, with impious hands, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAB04PpdnKQ7
The food of altars; fires and flaming brands. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAtDWgLnZNVg
Green boughs and saplings, mingled in their haste, 876Please respect copyright.PENANANdamtlYyrW
And smoking torches, on the ships they cast. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAq0X4lw7MDh
The flame, unstopp'd at first, more fury gains, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAQiw0amzZpq
And Vulcan rides at large with loosen'd reins: 876Please respect copyright.PENANA3GWN4Hbwrs
Triumphant to the painted sterns he soars, 876Please respect copyright.PENANACzQMm4nyUq
And seizes, in this way, the banks and crackling oars. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA1HON3GKqIq
Eumelus was the first the news to bear, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAXsfVQlVfra
While yet they crowd the rural theater. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAoMmI3GkZTV
Then, what they hear, is witness'd by their eyes: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAFHWRiLB0wz
A storm of sparkles and of flames arise. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAcdrnRbM0QI
Ascanius took th' alarm, while yet he led 876Please respect copyright.PENANAWjVtfXH8pk
His early warriors on his prancing steed, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAtFvSJXz6D6
And, spurring on, his equals soon o'erpass'd; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAMmwmtydfKA
Nor could his frighted friends reclaim his haste. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAhA1zpUkuKU
Soon as the royal youth appear'd in view, 876Please respect copyright.PENANATlmnknaMl4
He sent his voice before him as he flew: 876Please respect copyright.PENANARilx7N2Liq
"What madness moves you, matrons, to destroy 876Please respect copyright.PENANATvMV1JVt4P
The last remainders of unhappy Troy! 876Please respect copyright.PENANAbytEUIqPpZ
Not hostile fleets, but your own hopes, you burn, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAS9DXfwF2Aq
And on your friends your fatal fury turn. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAwyImOG5D6b
Behold your own Ascanius!" While he said, 876Please respect copyright.PENANACzdnRFzvQ0
He drew his glitt'ring helmet from his head, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAYQIUVyBQff
In which the youths to sportful arms he led. 876Please respect copyright.PENANATVL9DwrgE3
By this, Aeneas and his train appear; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAforWFoodfC
And now the women, seiz'd with shame and fear, 876Please respect copyright.PENANALDFcHvQYCh
Dispers'd, to woods and caverns take their flight, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAhAeRznnZUc
Abhor their actions, and avoid the light; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAVysXFVRROr
Their friends acknowledge, and their error find, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAdN81Uiv1Y6
And shake the goddess from their alter'd mind. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAFTzhVgsExC
Not so the raging fires their fury cease, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAw7MehJkQ1G
But, lurking in the seams, with seeming peace, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAmWHY8BpC78
Work on their way amid the smold'ring tow, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAUaFvI4atoe
Sure in destruction, but in motion slow. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAbn17XMdioV
The silent plague thro' the green timber eats, 876Please respect copyright.PENANARZHXbK5oej
And vomits out a tardy flame by fits. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA8yVoQr0bsc
Down to the keels, and upward to the sails, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAAgpCrrCIHl
The fire descends, or mounts, but still prevails; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAoYsS1EU6S9
Nor buckets pour'd, nor strength of human hand, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAzae6CGrPkK
Can the victorious element withstand. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAfDqxgzI3PL
The pious hero rends his robe, and throws 876Please respect copyright.PENANA2KuwLbl8Mz
To heav'n his hands, and with his hands his vows. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAigKVpdrMdH
"O Jove," he cried, "if pray'rs can yet have place; 876Please respect copyright.PENANA78VEplA3SI
If thou abhorr'st not all the Dardan race; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAipJku7ITbX
If any spark of pity still remain; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAeXQ0FbcmrN
If gods are gods, and not invok'd in vain; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAoWAXZiHwmX
Yet spare the relics of the Trojan train! 876Please respect copyright.PENANAMbJRpC6ysv
Yet from the flames our burning vessels free, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAPXxp4G5gEw
Or let thy fury fall alone on me! 876Please respect copyright.PENANAxKV4bsdtYU
At this devoted head thy thunder throw, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA7OmVXNylKg
And send the willing sacrifice below!" 876Please respect copyright.PENANASHzmtK07hv
Scarce had he said, when southern storms arise: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAEOTuJdbgk5
From pole to pole the forky lightning flies; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAGufd3m3sDZ
Loud rattling shakes the mountains and the plain; 876Please respect copyright.PENANA4ZA7ihCyPh
Heav'n bellies downward, and descends in rain. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAf3KUreiSuy
Whole sheets of water from the clouds are sent, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA3rjVzVd8lR
Which, hissing thro' the planks, the flames prevent, 876Please respect copyright.PENANADxpblP6k2v
And stop the fiery pest. Four ships alone 876Please respect copyright.PENANAD5htM5AfuX
Burn to the waist, and for the fleet atone. 876Please respect copyright.PENANARkwaBMlnEw
But doubtful thoughts the hero's heart divide; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAS64ZDQNBtW
If he should still in Sicily reside, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAiRVeEAp20e
Forgetful of his fates, or tempt the main, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAL9eKFI08u2
In hope the promis'd Italy to gain. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAEC0cYyNpxp
Then Nautes, old and wise, to whom alone 876Please respect copyright.PENANA7kRSyRLeXz
The will of Heav'n by Pallas was foreshown; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAXbDhH7nMCK
Vers'd in portents, experienc'd, and inspir'd 876Please respect copyright.PENANAajxzhXqwdG
To tell events, and what the fates requir'd; 876Please respect copyright.PENANA088GUEwtjS
Thus while he stood, to neither part inclin'd, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAEG6CFMvsYq
With cheerful words reliev'd his lab'ring mind: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAilw4OkOAR2
"O goddess-born, resign'd in ev'ry state, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA93AWP2nRK3
With patience bear, with prudence push your fate. 876Please respect copyright.PENANABW1N7naBKc
By suff'ring well, our Fortune we subdue; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAMB9uULiW7F
Fly when she frowns, and, when she calls, pursue. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAh4z8NFus9J
Your friend Acestes is of Trojan kind; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAYYOz7t8LNl
To him disclose the secrets of your mind: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAAPkGj9GZkL
Trust in his hands your old and useless train; 876Please respect copyright.PENANA6e5tZW3Y7J
Too num'rous for the ships which yet remain: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAotIuTOVptG
The feeble, old, indulgent of their ease, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA59aCww3XJv
The dames who dread the dangers of the seas, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAQx32E4yIwL
With all the dastard crew, who dare not stand 876Please respect copyright.PENANAkfqNXXsfyL
The shock of battle with your foes by land. 876Please respect copyright.PENANACcF05lH04v
Here you may build a common town for all, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAVDESGvQSqI
And, from Acestes' name, Acesta call." 876Please respect copyright.PENANAZboVQMTsiX
The reasons, with his friend's experience join'd, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA5jVHs64rdp
Encourag'd much, but more disturb'd his mind. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAwvPFGGRaXH
'T was dead of night; when to his slumb'ring eyes 876Please respect copyright.PENANAJMR4n1yhs1
His father's shade descended from the skies, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAjbha4OqD94
And thus he spoke: "O more than vital breath, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA95a9zNB9ly
Lov'd while I liv'd, and dear ev'n after death; 876Please respect copyright.PENANA4V1HibZaLP
O son, in various toils and troubles toss'd, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA6GqiswOVri
The King of Heav'n employs my careful ghost 876Please respect copyright.PENANAMKSbSBuzhf
On his commands: the god, who sav'd from fire 876Please respect copyright.PENANANuWHPzwoqM
Your flaming fleet, and heard your just desire. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAwvwtKYeFfM
The wholesome counsel of your friend receive, 876Please respect copyright.PENANANYqLdx32Wp
And here the coward train and woman leave: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAN2gvWFTaz7
The chosen youth, and those who nobly dare, 876Please respect copyright.PENANApJ81OxBjGN
Transport, to tempt the dangers of the war. 876Please respect copyright.PENANACFF3uIHIBU
The stern Italians will their courage try; 876Please respect copyright.PENANA4SYb1VKqTo
Rough are their manners, and their minds are high. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAbh4gMVjLif
But first to Pluto's palace you shall go, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAiAOgPUhy3h
And seek my shade among the blest below: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAy5C304Ma19
For not with impious ghosts my soul remains, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAc2Db2gerKr
Nor suffers with the damn'd perpetual pains, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA3xuKY7rqnl
But breathes the living air of soft Elysian plains. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAyzVgsfplQo
The chaste Sibylla shall your steps convey, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAet2d1ho5Bm
And blood of offer'd victims free the way. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAYKns3kIiD6
There shall you know what realms the gods assign, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAFE7tPKk42W
And learn the fates and fortunes of your line. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAcK7aG1fTsv
But now, farewell! I vanish with the night, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAfjhb0x7cMj
And feel the blast of heav'n's approaching light." 876Please respect copyright.PENANAkfy2JI5gnp
He said, and mix'd with shades, and took his airy flight. 876Please respect copyright.PENANATZJxTUTwYh
"Whither so fast?" the filial duty cried; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAIOm9XS3IeN
"And why, ah why, the wish'd embrace denied?" 876Please respect copyright.PENANADAjbam6GNR
He said, and rose; as holy zeal inspires, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAbs45lk9sJI
He rakes hot embers, and renews the fires; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAj3bC3ohTFk
His country gods and Vesta then adores 876Please respect copyright.PENANA5TTpdqHkmi
With cakes and incense, and their aid implores. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAi5mUz4jHOe
Next, for his friends and royal host he sent, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAnx5WYRNhWO
Reveal'd his vision, and the gods' intent, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAsfVfPGbDWj
With his own purpose. All, without delay, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAQUwOvZJruW
The will of Jove, and his desires obey. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAUak7ONPHjR
They list with women each degenerate name, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAz9ilbAMC44
Who dares not hazard life for future fame. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAmLFVPSDLsv
These they cashier: the brave remaining few, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAI6b8qzbpkM
Oars, banks, and cables, half consum'd, renew. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAimk5czFgaN
The prince designs a city with the plow; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAzxCYI2QOFV
The lots their sev'ral tenements allow. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA7a441bhAQO
This part is nam'd from Ilium, that from Troy, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAHlLaPH9aKF
And the new king ascends the throne with joy; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAtQ14q7rFSf
A chosen senate from the people draws; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAhmlkoitqMU
Appoints the judges, and ordains the laws. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAPsfiZLxi0L
Then, on the top of Eryx, they begin 876Please respect copyright.PENANARWwvJDi6Oh
A rising temple to the Paphian queen. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAqMBifA3sHd
Anchises, last, is honor'd as a god; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAQzrATqDXHr
A priest is added, annual gifts bestow'd, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAyjRDoLv7Wp
And groves are planted round his blest abode. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAATGMoGjyaf
Nine days they pass in feasts, their temples crown'd; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAzZCsXLctpY
And fumes of incense in the fanes abound. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAfEgPOqg5a6
Then from the south arose a gentle breeze 876Please respect copyright.PENANAVH8cEEt76r
That curl'd the smoothness of the glassy seas; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAVldQrbR12U
The rising winds a ruffling gale afford, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAjB4sA4n9BN
And call the merry mariners aboard. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA9OISwa6GkM
Now loud laments along the shores resound, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAHhSGf5ZP5i
Of parting friends in close embraces bound. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAsxbZfsLEx5
The trembling women, the degenerate train, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA6kGULjJms0
Who shunn'd the frightful dangers of the main, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAukwyx0g7wC
Ev'n those desire to sail, and take their share 876Please respect copyright.PENANAQP3MxzONji
Of the rough passage and the promis'd war: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAs3QcciQIIG
Whom good Aeneas cheers, and recommends 876Please respect copyright.PENANAX9pBrArjhe
To their new master's care his fearful friends. 876Please respect copyright.PENANASmqDA4hYTc
On Eryx's altars three fat calves he lays; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAiBwV089L8R
A lamb new-fallen to the stormy seas; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAzEQVObDKCE
Then slips his haulsers, and his anchors weighs. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAGJ5Rk3yCbd
High on the deck the godlike hero stands, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAQmnKNhWBjf
With olive crown'd, a charger in his hands; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAMTqLsjkGYA
Then cast the reeking entrails in the brine, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAMnOIiDdsBR
And pour'd the sacrifice of purple wine. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAfenomQO4KZ
Fresh gales arise; with equal strokes they vie, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAqWeegD70Fb
And brush the buxom seas, and o'er the billows fly. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAXVfyt9zeJO
Meantime the mother goddess, full of fears, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA6cW4sFxL1y
To Neptune thus address'd, with tender tears: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAsmZv7XYlIo
"The pride of Jove's imperious queen, the rage, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAlSuNM3LUg3
The malice which no suff'rings can assuage, 876Please respect copyright.PENANALCVVDYChPS
Compel me to these pray'rs; since neither fate, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAh9NoIn4gfp
Nor time, nor pity, can remove her hate: 876Please respect copyright.PENANA0WDO1KYDrZ
Ev'n Jove is thwarted by his haughty wife; 876Please respect copyright.PENANARSTyOlqn68
Still vanquish'd, yet she still renews the strife. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAAU96pcOnLs
As if 't were little to consume the town 876Please respect copyright.PENANABc7NIRSxE4
Which aw'd the world, and wore th' imperial crown, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAVzR5a826h4
She prosecutes the ghost of Troy with pains, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAcKHb4xn6Tc
And gnaws, ev'n to the bones, the last remains. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAbzWg1eKMJe
Let her the causes of her hatred tell; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAWNWC1SGvGV
But you can witness its effects too well. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAGiGSA9ODeB
You saw the storm she rais'd on Libyan floods, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAFN7AUufHtv
That mix'd the mounting billows with the clouds; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAQeighNyG2g
When, bribing Aeolus, she shook the main, 876Please respect copyright.PENANALumBEAaU6a
And mov'd rebellion in your wat'ry reign. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAXuYjVnbip8
With fury she possess'd the Dardan dames, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAv5idsgOzMT
To burn their fleet with execrable flames, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAUyXbLriHGr
And forc'd Aeneas, when his ships were lost, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAVRUn1q2BrL
To leave his foll'wers on a foreign coast. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAEqX8f8wASO
For what remains, your godhead I implore, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA7z6NJnw6C7
And trust my son to your protecting pow'r. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAcPJ5bHBGc2
If neither Jove's nor Fate's decree withstand, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAp0o8gLZOUO
Secure his passage to the Latian land." 876Please respect copyright.PENANAmopyo7KKfN
Then thus the mighty Ruler of the Main: 876Please respect copyright.PENANA2dUYzNkK5l
"What may not Venus hope from Neptune's reign? 876Please respect copyright.PENANA8YYzgmmmrF
My kingdom claims your birth; my late defense 876Please respect copyright.PENANAMbPY87gfEC
Of your indanger'd fleet may claim your confidence. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAKiT0WPaZiJ
Nor less by land than sea my deeds declare 876Please respect copyright.PENANAQy2BQ0zLn3
How much your lov'd Aeneas is my care. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAgOCo9LgZj2
Thee, Xanthus, and thee, Simois, I attest. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAa1qRI5MUL9
Your Trojan troops when proud Achilles press'd, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAXqDgdLDIF1
And drove before him headlong on the plain, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAn9MlPiCNnI
And dash'd against the walls the trembling train; 876Please respect copyright.PENANA9WkMmmb2YD
When floods were fill'd with bodies of the slain; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAUQEfMYMlTF
When crimson Xanthus, doubtful of his way, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAxTD2Xv5fxy
Stood up on ridges to behold the sea; 876Please respect copyright.PENANArKvh2Kssrh
(New heaps came tumbling in, and chok'd his way;) 876Please respect copyright.PENANAYAttAPbFW9
When your Aeneas fought, but fought with odds 876Please respect copyright.PENANAnyu8GmrNoW
Of force unequal, and unequal gods; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAFDjvqELrqC
I spread a cloud before the victor's sight, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAIKQ6TpINDx
Sustain'd the vanquish'd, and secur'd his flight; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAz1bw4HsPfu
Ev'n then secur'd him, when I sought with joy 876Please respect copyright.PENANAL0lTb6XoqQ
The vow'd destruction of ungrateful Troy. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA4jImZM9q4N
My will's the same: fair goddess, fear no more, 876Please respect copyright.PENANACuGrIBBmDP
Your fleet shall safely gain the Latian shore; 876Please respect copyright.PENANArktto5yRaX
Their lives are giv'n; one destin'd head alone 876Please respect copyright.PENANAZSZaP5Yl3q
Shall perish, and for multitudes atone." 876Please respect copyright.PENANAw3KEys4Qdt
Thus having arm'd with hopes her anxious mind, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA7yWtLd1Kco
His finny team Saturnian Neptune join'd, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAuxp9PXQfM8
Then adds the foamy bridle to their jaws, 876Please respect copyright.PENANANyXwsHTGiR
And to the loosen'd reins permits the laws. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAi4QiIxPGDJ
High on the waves his azure car he guides; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAfRE21GEToX
Its axles thunder, and the sea subsides, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAxq3mv01T21
And the smooth ocean rolls her silent tides. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA78KBcEInik
The tempests fly before their father's face, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAx0N0zVWpWw
Trains of inferior gods his triumph grace, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA5WzBSXQqwS
And monster whales before their master play, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAneJBkwiaIP
And choirs of Tritons crowd the wat'ry way. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAibSuFWeafN
The marshal'd pow'rs in equal troops divide 876Please respect copyright.PENANAl5StGSSKFA
To right and left; the gods his better side 876Please respect copyright.PENANAsq8InubMEi
Inclose, and on the worse the Nymphs and Nereids ride. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAV8JFfmEIub
Now smiling hope, with sweet vicissitude, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA2msXsMNoa7
Within the hero's mind his joys renew'd. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAYJTH6ZhQS5
He calls to raise the masts, the sheets display; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAFj9CPJtxKT
The cheerful crew with diligence obey; 876Please respect copyright.PENANADZoml5emdb
They scud before the wind, and sail in open sea. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAFOEUIlecjU
Ahead of all the master pilot steers; 876Please respect copyright.PENANALY7PXdr5MA
And, as he leads, the following navy veers. 876Please respect copyright.PENANATRP7JP1S0e
The steeds of Night had travel'd half the sky, 876Please respect copyright.PENANASILgDFFa46
The drowsy rowers on their benches lie, 876Please respect copyright.PENANARgvDDYVBBq
When the soft God of Sleep, with easy flight, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA3WJ5BODEvt
Descends, and draws behind a trail of light. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA6op6YqWqXp
Thou, Palinurus, art his destin'd prey; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAsWYWURJ8qN
To thee alone he takes his fatal way. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAs8y0POB3CX
Dire dreams to thee, and iron sleep, he bears; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAl3lWl33SAC
And, lighting on thy prow, the form of Phorbas wears. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA0Q98FCJx7o
Then thus the traitor god began his tale: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAHnpxaxvKGL
"The winds, my friend, inspire a pleasing gale; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAThOp4Kf5gO
The ships, without thy care, securely sail. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAS4XAeRB4xf
Now steal an hour of sweet repose; and I 876Please respect copyright.PENANAmXnZepXuWL
Will take the rudder and thy room supply." 876Please respect copyright.PENANAbzn7IWKWUX
To whom the yawning pilot, half asleep: 876Please respect copyright.PENANAe73JTC2Nlr
"Me dost thou bid to trust the treach'rous deep, 876Please respect copyright.PENANADWXog9MPiN
The harlot smiles of her dissembling face, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAZGdk77BGkA
And to her faith commit the Trojan race? 876Please respect copyright.PENANAReYZngKcFJ
Shall I believe the Siren South again, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA3pfcVOMul5
And, oft betray'd, not know the monster main?" 876Please respect copyright.PENANA29vUnPoMzl
He said: his fasten'd hands the rudder keep, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAGxHh67KvVB
And, fix'd on heav'n, his eyes repel invading sleep. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA73738ylYP9
The god was wroth, and at his temples threw 876Please respect copyright.PENANAhwSWQMFTXH
A branch in Lethe dipp'd, and drunk with Stygian dew: 876Please respect copyright.PENANA6QG7ZKZX9M
The pilot, vanquish'd by the pow'r divine, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAChtx88WJuM
Soon clos'd his swimming eyes, and lay supine. 876Please respect copyright.PENANArgIUJGpGxC
Scarce were his limbs extended at their length, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA2mwOkDvyif
The god, insulting with superior strength, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAsZAS9kAewy
Fell heavy on him, plung'd him in the sea, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAXk6B60fLHi
And, with the stern, the rudder tore away. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAQwsIcMYHrH
Headlong he fell, and, struggling in the main, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAQME2jNgryO
Cried out for helping hands, but cried in vain. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAPXEu8FQkcT
The victor daemon mounts obscure in air, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAc5VvoGpcBz
While the ship sails without the pilot's care. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAHFPCG6jbxl
On Neptune's faith the floating fleet relies; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAWYPg00s04Q
But what the man forsook, the god supplies, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAQd2qJhAnYz
And o'er the dang'rous deep secure the navy flies; 876Please respect copyright.PENANAq4OwU2RGmI
Glides by the Sirens' cliffs, a shelfy coast, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAluwwUImZjU
Long infamous for ships and sailors lost, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAH4WCHQimmv
And white with bones. Th' impetuous ocean roars, 876Please respect copyright.PENANA5BW0Ate6yU
And rocks rebellow from the sounding shores. 876Please respect copyright.PENANAnOBGBOcGDV
The watchful hero felt the knocks, and found 876Please respect copyright.PENANATG2eVeGQ41
The tossing vessel sail'd on shoaly ground. 876Please respect copyright.PENANACXigOaM5bO
Sure of his pilot's loss, he takes himself 876Please respect copyright.PENANAww3tsPQDSk
The helm, and steers aloof, and shuns the shelf. 876Please respect copyright.PENANA6AoIp6o2CN
Inly he griev'd, and, groaning from the breast, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAKdtMXurtWw
Deplor'd his death; and thus his pain express'd: 876Please respect copyright.PENANALKidq9Cs23
"For faith repos'd on seas, and on the flatt'ring sky, 876Please respect copyright.PENANAOIhOW81uew
Thy naked corpse is doom'd on shores unknown to lie." 876Please respect copyright.PENANAD9n2Vm0JeW
