Meantime the Trojan cuts his wat'ry way, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAqVusHzTd3K
Fix'd on his voyage, thro' the curling sea; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAUxv0zMxPMW
Then, casting back his eyes, with dire amaze, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA2B3qBUm5lj
Sees on the Punic shore the mounting blaze. 887Please respect copyright.PENANARQRJOMd2ce
The cause unknown; yet his presaging mind 887Please respect copyright.PENANAofdwp0yupa
The fate of Dido from the fire divin'd; 887Please respect copyright.PENANA5GGIuA0mrF
He knew the stormy souls of womankind, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAoY7NJ41Cn6
What secret springs their eager passions move, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAe3LYjAD4wt
How capable of death for injur'd love. 887Please respect copyright.PENANADqfOzoa2zm
Dire auguries from hence the Trojans draw; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAGnNS1dJCTk
Till neither fires nor shining shores they saw. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAj81odJJQb6
Now seas and skies their prospect only bound; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAvuBUHLON1G
An empty space above, a floating field around. 887Please respect copyright.PENANArW8lxhPt5a
But soon the heav'ns with shadows were o'erspread; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAJHQfO5WMMI
A swelling cloud hung hov'ring o'er their head: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAJBQcykXbAy
Livid it look'd, the threat'ning of a storm: 887Please respect copyright.PENANACY2d6SgJJn
Then night and horror ocean's face deform. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA9FnOTW1oF9
The pilot, Palinurus, cried aloud: 887Please respect copyright.PENANABlsr4ZPPKi
"What gusts of weather from that gath'ring cloud 887Please respect copyright.PENANATemVX4p5gB
My thoughts presage! Ere yet the tempest roars, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAnC6mdZr5op
Stand to your tackle, mates, and stretch your oars; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAIgCbpumRss
Contract your swelling sails, and luff to wind." 887Please respect copyright.PENANAcSCgVgYOmc
The frighted crew perform the task assign'd. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAsJuNS495UA
Then, to his fearless chief: "Not Heav'n," said he, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAzD4k82cNEX
"Tho' Jove himself should promise Italy, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA9wDXqbqPPt
Can stem the torrent of this raging sea. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAQqUVWHsVSQ
Mark how the shifting winds from west arise, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA2vyygfEvdY
And what collected night involves the skies! 887Please respect copyright.PENANAZrok1Ippga
Nor can our shaken vessels live at sea, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAOyrVOysL9P
Much less against the tempest force their way. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAD4w4KUAxMW
'T is fate diverts our course, and fate we must obey. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAU1S5VEHp66
Not far from hence, if I observ'd aright 887Please respect copyright.PENANAAKRjDTKT2e
The southing of the stars, and polar light, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAVHRVk6gNqA
Sicilia lies, whose hospitable shores 887Please respect copyright.PENANAKza0ZGMCAk
In safety we may reach with struggling oars." 887Please respect copyright.PENANAPHIdr9QKzq
Aeneas then replied: "Too sure I find 887Please respect copyright.PENANATYVyDLVwu0
We strive in vain against the seas and wind: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAQosZPUm7YX
Now shift your sails; what place can please me more 887Please respect copyright.PENANA84foVgBNR7
Than what you promise, the Sicilian shore, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAe6EbRlAxID
Whose hallow'd earth Anchises' bones contains, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAGWOYLIssPJ
And where a prince of Trojan lineage reigns?" 887Please respect copyright.PENANAEOTv8EF7yw
The course resolv'd, before the western wind 887Please respect copyright.PENANAOzEjSfjQgo
They scud amain, and make the port assign'd. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAvIhoB6oTDk
Meantime Acestes, from a lofty stand, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAoByxMEjJrO
Beheld the fleet descending on the land; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAFn2OHaPG51
And, not unmindful of his ancient race, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAP0IFMjpVrc
Down from the cliff he ran with eager pace, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAxHX6w3sYgW
And held the hero in a strict embrace. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAlKXuPqDRJB
Of a rough Libyan bear the spoils he wore, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAulrHlkVVNn
And either hand a pointed jav'lin bore. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAiuCpFxoasp
His mother was a dame of Dardan blood; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAOgEfCxslNY
His sire Crinisus, a Sicilian flood. 887Please respect copyright.PENANApnb04p9jlL
He welcomes his returning friends ashore 887Please respect copyright.PENANAQ1Do2zIamC
With plenteous country cates and homely store. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAzW0C8XEi1A
Now, when the following morn had chas'd away 887Please respect copyright.PENANAxBqdxv3ruZ
The flying stars, and light restor'd the day, 887Please respect copyright.PENANArzXqtDfLU1
Aeneas call'd the Trojan troops around, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAFSx7byq2hF
And thus bespoke them from a rising ground: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAawPYAYb4cZ
"Offspring of heav'n, divine Dardanian race! 887Please respect copyright.PENANAdcbxqbw7jj
The sun, revolving thro' th' ethereal space, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAUljw1V1V56
The shining circle of the year has fill'd, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAEjoo1gQvjM
Since first this isle my father's ashes held: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAxKhGFld2B8
And now the rising day renews the year; 887Please respect copyright.PENANA6bLqGXb7T9
A day for ever sad, for ever dear. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAgrafHX86AG
This would I celebrate with annual games, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA0DjWt99SJ3
With gifts on altars pil'd, and holy flames, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA9p9Nbeh7bb
Tho' banish'd to Gaetulia's barren sands, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA5mkQwKeGNI
Caught on the Grecian seas, or hostile lands: 887Please respect copyright.PENANA7BeDhKioo6
But since this happy storm our fleet has driv'n 887Please respect copyright.PENANAAPXYQiYix3
(Not, as I deem, without the will of Heav'n) 887Please respect copyright.PENANAPYjK8aj4Rc
Upon these friendly shores and flow'ry plains, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA9cK8XjOjBa
Which hide Anchises and his blest remains, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAqULGt3uoPs
Let us with joy perform his honors due, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAoTXPnaOd2P
And pray for prosp'rous winds, our voyage to renew; 887Please respect copyright.PENANApy0hOWImtA
Pray, that in towns and temples of our own, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA1ogd7FZnd1
The name of great Anchises may be known, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAEXN3wTRxE6
And yearly games may spread the gods' renown. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAreickELBtC
Our sports Acestes, of the Trojan race, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAaMacKwW7Qu
With royal gifts ordain'd, is pleas'd to grace: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAWZuapNf3dD
Two steers on ev'ry ship the king bestows; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAeGhzuzpBwy
His gods and ours shall share your equal vows. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAekOXMoXMqI
Besides, if, nine days hence, the rosy morn 887Please respect copyright.PENANApaLvHNprfT
Shall with unclouded light the skies adorn, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAbToJTn6RVe
That day with solemn sports I mean to grace: 887Please respect copyright.PENANASF76DRB5N0
Light galleys on the seas shall run a wat'ry race; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAT1abzvDqNk
Some shall in swiftness for the goal contend, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAK3eqAvNAt4
And others try the twanging bow to bend; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAVpulHSoStk
The strong, with iron gauntlets arm'd, shall stand 887Please respect copyright.PENANAeW2LPEnVJP
Oppos'd in combat on the yellow sand. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAm9d0VgAiC3
Let all be present at the games prepar'd, 887Please respect copyright.PENANANOL8brhULa
And joyful victors wait the just reward. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAmoFgpInfZy
But now assist the rites, with garlands crown'd." 887Please respect copyright.PENANA3DH2PhXSyR
He said, and first his brows with myrtle bound. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAmuaFPTEhzZ
Then Helymus, by his example led, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA0LX5P5xPoo
And old Acestes, each adorn'd his head; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAaE9LCmm4IB
Thus young Ascanius, with a sprightly grace, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAncf74XDJWW
His temples tied, and all the Trojan race. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAzpIM2ar5Qu
Aeneas then advanc'd amidst the train, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAQ7AxUEDqXz
By thousands follow'd thro' the flow'ry plain, 887Please respect copyright.PENANALDDZa65FNZ
To great Anchises' tomb; which when he found, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAWeKMsrZPww
He pour'd to Bacchus, on the hallow'd ground, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA8Iy4TfoEhO
Two bowls of sparkling wine, of milk two more, 887Please respect copyright.PENANARfRhU4td9p
And two (from offer'd bulls) of purple gore, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA6r9CrmMzNg
With roses then the sepulcher he strow'd 887Please respect copyright.PENANAl4SpOnWwLc
And thus his father's ghost bespoke aloud: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAeDUd6z4N6k
"Hail, O ye holy manes! hail again, 887Please respect copyright.PENANACSkuZjk86o
Paternal ashes, now review'd in vain! 887Please respect copyright.PENANAD2kJMeSFQu
The gods permitted not, that you, with me, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAk6THGxp8qz
Should reach the promis'd shores of Italy, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAIRxDXO3lja
Or Tiber's flood, what flood soe'er it be." 887Please respect copyright.PENANA8B5lz5jIgu
Scarce had he finish'd, when, with speckled pride, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAdFTNBQNTpQ
A serpent from the tomb began to glide; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAvKuPXExLn0
His hugy bulk on sev'n high volumes roll'd; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAzadC10wzPY
Blue was his breadth of back, but streak'd with scaly gold: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAF9PZjScWIc
Thus riding on his curls, he seem'd to pass 887Please respect copyright.PENANAcz4cicILAL
A rolling fire along, and singe the grass. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA7Epl9OTzI1
More various colors thro' his body run, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAuY5dFbEDw9
Than Iris when her bow imbibes the sun. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAZu8TBfsFkY
Betwixt the rising altars, and around, 887Please respect copyright.PENANATt4kzhKDiA
The sacred monster shot along the ground; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAAgizzVU8ks
With harmless play amidst the bowls he pass'd, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAGBxKE1NFnF
And with his lolling tongue assay'd the taste: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAq0RfYIXLYX
Thus fed with holy food, the wondrous guest 887Please respect copyright.PENANAz5BZ2b7hzc
Within the hollow tomb retir'd to rest. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA8lIRY1R8fR
The pious prince, surpris'd at what he view'd, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAB1lsaG3CJ3
The fun'ral honors with more zeal renew'd, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAsS5QKdgXLX
Doubtful if this place's genius were, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAl0zu8NJ7fb
Or guardian of his father's sepulcher. 887Please respect copyright.PENANABJAtzkS9in
Five sheep, according to the rites, he slew; 887Please respect copyright.PENANA5tP1rRH9tJ
As many swine, and steers of sable hue; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAWpnmYpYRGO
New gen'rous wine he from the goblets pour'd. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAjZubv0jGbn
And call'd his father's ghost, from hell restor'd. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA4g9s9O2EFv
The glad attendants in long order come, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAjh3tEu6FX8
Off'ring their gifts at great Anchises' tomb: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAAa11LPYWkQ
Some add more oxen: some divide the spoil; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAUa5DFCOFPx
Some place the chargers on the grassy soil; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAcuCpF5RqL4
Some blow the fires, and off entrails broil. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAnhjKAxNH4n
Now came the day desir'd. The skies were bright 887Please respect copyright.PENANAVa5B3Z1blI
With rosy luster of the rising light: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAJMNjuF9rrV
The bord'ring people, rous'd by sounding fame 887Please respect copyright.PENANAP9A1TNuIMR
Of Trojan feasts and great Acestes' name, 887Please respect copyright.PENANASjQ3bVhlXN
The crowded shore with acclamations fill, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAcp6yDY9SmX
Part to behold, and part to prove their skill. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA2SZguItC80
And first the gifts in public view they place, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAExc12kXR4r
Green laurel wreaths, and palm, the victors' grace: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAYQbRGKWEsu
Within the circle, arms and tripods lie, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAHfVxjiMsPt
Ingots of gold and silver, heap'd on high, 887Please respect copyright.PENANASFOUnf72zz
And vests embroider'd, of the Tyrian dye. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAolDjaljh9y
The trumpet's clangor then the feast proclaims, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA4GyHHwQMma
And all prepare for their appointed games. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA8e4B6P9CAo
Four galleys first, which equal rowers bear, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAOnrgMve8Yr
Advancing, in the wat'ry lists appear. 887Please respect copyright.PENANArmx7dkDc1x
The speedy Dolphin, that outstrips the wind, 887Please respect copyright.PENANARgrwckAmcc
Bore Mnestheus, author of the Memmian kind: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAcBoQCLAObd
Gyas the vast Chimaera's bulk commands, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAYjoCItb3kC
Which rising, like a tow'ring city stands; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAYKrJVJKsBx
Three Trojans tug at ev'ry lab'ring oar; 887Please respect copyright.PENANA83Y6YpaCBw
Three banks in three degrees the sailors bore; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAYXEwUQTcIG
Beneath their sturdy strokes the billows roar. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAoLH6dv6enP
Sergesthus, who began the Sergian race, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAykwU4MtclV
In the great Centaur took the leading place; 887Please respect copyright.PENANA1kEq3Bcocq
Cloanthus on the sea-green Scylla stood, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA0apIqWdaDU
From whom Cluentius draws his Trojan blood. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA4REiCLoGR0
Far in the sea, against the foaming shore, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAmT1UuFCUXV
There stands a rock: the raging billows roar 887Please respect copyright.PENANAMUtbMEduYE
Above his head in storms; but, when 't is clear, 887Please respect copyright.PENANATcwAifWyBe
Uncurl their ridgy backs, and at his foot appear. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAc2CSMTDEUP
In peace below the gentle waters run; 887Please respect copyright.PENANA7fGZplaa2g
The cormorants above lie basking in the sun. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAvrf8gEvg5Q
On this the hero fix'd an oak in sight, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA6vCRIN4vna
The mark to guide the mariners aright. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAyj4TX38BMU
To bear with this, the seamen stretch their oars; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAeMov0BfIZr
Then round the rock they steer, and seek the former shores. 887Please respect copyright.PENANALLivPv4CR7
The lots decide their place. Above the rest, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAQFFMRnIigW
Each leader shining in his Tyrian vest; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAo5Q6b2HbQe
The common crew with wreaths of poplar boughs 887Please respect copyright.PENANARVlTW9HZf1
Their temples crown, and shade their sweaty brows: 887Please respect copyright.PENANA9Z5nWXzD8T
Besmear'd with oil, their naked shoulders shine. 887Please respect copyright.PENANANP41NagslD
All take their seats, and wait the sounding sign: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAe1vzHdJ9sh
They gripe their oars; and ev'ry panting breast 887Please respect copyright.PENANAtllbE2pFlf
Is rais'd by turns with hope, by turns with fear depress'd. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAEjxF27BAsd
The clangor of the trumpet gives the sign; 887Please respect copyright.PENANABaUqnnl7AR
At once they start, advancing in a line: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAoS2NUP4jQG
With shouts the sailors rend the starry skies; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAbFRPnQx7KF
Lash'd with their oars, the smoky billows rise; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAU7y6Pahtep
Sparkles the briny main, and the vex'd ocean fries. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAuY5fvxYhLH
Exact in time, with equal strokes they row: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAEYtvUQEnue
At once the brushing oars and brazen prow 887Please respect copyright.PENANA4hIm8WUIP1
Dash up the sandy waves, and ope the depths below. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAIHrMdkHBRc
Not fiery coursers, in a chariot race, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAaI54DlVf2n
Invade the field with half so swift a pace; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAtoKfg5CNU0
Not the fierce driver with more fury lends 887Please respect copyright.PENANAkiOAqVdQs4
The sounding lash, and, ere the stroke descends, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA8GswX0BS9A
Low to the wheels his pliant body bends. 887Please respect copyright.PENANACOIANb0sjX
The partial crowd their hopes and fears divide, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAwgVk64yZeb
And aid with eager shouts the favor'd side. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAPBPoGj2RWd
Cries, murmurs, clamors, with a mixing sound, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA5FrTra4Nel
From woods to woods, from hills to hills rebound. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAMGzpc614DJ
Amidst the loud applauses of the shore, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAf4ckk3wyTa
Gyas outstripp'd the rest, and sprung before: 887Please respect copyright.PENANA7OfCR4MS1Y
Cloanthus, better mann'd, pursued him fast, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA92ePv59xEC
But his o'er-masted galley check'd his haste. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAOSlpe276av
The Centaur and the Dolphin brush the brine 887Please respect copyright.PENANAKUB95rQvrr
With equal oars, advancing in a line; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAlPgLNI9KEN
And now the mighty Centaur seems to lead, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAEt4sy5RLBV
And now the speedy Dolphin gets ahead; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAjcFdoNoRvB
Now board to board the rival vessels row, 887Please respect copyright.PENANArGrAdJYWxl
The billows lave the skies, and ocean groans below. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA6i21vvUbOU
They reach'd the mark. Proud Gyas and his train 887Please respect copyright.PENANA0Px9eal8Y2
In triumph rode, the victors of the main; 887Please respect copyright.PENANA5OhPoBhWJs
But, steering round, he charg'd his pilot stand 887Please respect copyright.PENANA1envNzPFnc
More close to shore, and skim along the sand- 887Please respect copyright.PENANArveIaWMRZv
"Let others bear to sea!" Menoetes heard; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAYvCWcI562m
But secret shelves too cautiously he fear'd, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAeUNoT40zUb
And, fearing, sought the deep; and still aloof he steer'd. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAafSMHAce2c
With louder cries the captain call'd again: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAMkbG6mrrBZ
"Bear to the rocky shore, and shun the main." 887Please respect copyright.PENANAG3CXwXpExO
He spoke, and, speaking, at his stern he saw 887Please respect copyright.PENANAY9o5gpT1Z2
The bold Cloanthus near the shelvings draw. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAjOsRtzDCcY
Betwixt the mark and him the Scylla stood, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAlDfWfqqT8r
And in a closer compass plow'd the flood. 887Please respect copyright.PENANATgoSUhNRbZ
He pass'd the mark; and, wheeling, got before: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAmSpgH4SWxL
Gyas blasphem'd the gods, devoutly swore, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAfT750gLP3T
Cried out for anger, and his hair he tore. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAxR5pwuYU1G
Mindless of others' lives (so high was grown 887Please respect copyright.PENANAbdhnxmSOrM
His rising rage) and careless of his own, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAxSKUwWoJD7
The trembling dotard to the deck he drew; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAUz2so5TdrP
Then hoisted up, and overboard he threw: 887Please respect copyright.PENANA5wz3XcQbd9
This done, he seiz'd the helm; his fellows cheer'd, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAxipzFrAHAX
Turn'd short upon the shelfs, and madly steer'd. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAQvTSlKo4hI
Hardly his head the plunging pilot rears, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAw0hILydFY2
Clogg'd with his clothes, and cumber'd with his years: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAmklJOKzJ52
Now dropping wet, he climbs the cliff with pain. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAH2QvmPyHQW
The crowd, that saw him fall and float again, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAMjzBrXhfW9
Shout from the distant shore; and loudly laugh'd, 887Please respect copyright.PENANApKcB1IOc0N
To see his heaving breast disgorge the briny draught. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAybSMVHsEW1
The following Centaur, and the Dolphin's crew, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAfJNcDcj4r9
Their vanish'd hopes of victory renew; 887Please respect copyright.PENANANFy6FN1TcQ
While Gyas lags, they kindle in the race, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAGSKMFgjHDQ
To reach the mark. Sergesthus takes the place; 887Please respect copyright.PENANA9kl7XAUYso
Mnestheus pursues; and while around they wind, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAI37NKATk2d
Comes up, not half his galley's length behind; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAQ6tXZUpBTZ
Then, on the deck, amidst his mates appear'd, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAjWn7WPnBb6
And thus their drooping courage he cheer'd: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAh1GtTRLj7d
"My friends, and Hector's followers heretofore, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAvmQTcjo8Pp
Exert your vigor; tug the lab'ring oar; 887Please respect copyright.PENANACUWItLt8BA
Stretch to your strokes, my still unconquer'd crew, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAYm9RZx0YrK
Whom from the flaming walls of Troy I drew. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAaaUn7uSoAl
In this, our common int'rest, let me find 887Please respect copyright.PENANAkUYFs9YNnV
That strength of hand, that courage of the mind, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAmY96MgOXWT
As when you stemm'd the strong Malean flood, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAPWHTRBBjcB
And o'er the Syrtes' broken billows row'd. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAeZLM4uTQg3
I seek not now the foremost palm to gain; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAkp5jr3unqH
Tho' yet- but, ah! that haughty wish is vain! 887Please respect copyright.PENANAH8o8lLooEu
Let those enjoy it whom the gods ordain. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAj2niyboALk
But to be last, the lags of all the race!- 887Please respect copyright.PENANAwx6otzSDFv
Redeem yourselves and me from that disgrace." 887Please respect copyright.PENANAjo2x8Jfy4J
Now, one and all, they tug amain; they row 887Please respect copyright.PENANAZJpayq2DUL
At the full stretch, and shake the brazen prow. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAfyyCXY8Ffm
The sea beneath 'em sinks; their lab'ring sides 887Please respect copyright.PENANAvbrV7FLJxl
Are swell'd, and sweat runs gutt'ring down in tides. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA4CbnQ0IJHy
Chance aids their daring with unhop'd success; 887Please respect copyright.PENANA48Mw14Vvhk
Sergesthus, eager with his beak to press 887Please respect copyright.PENANA1IQQOfnex2
Betwixt the rival galley and the rock, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAYS876Zow7d
Shuts up th' unwieldly Centaur in the lock. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAzCOuGP3Vl9
The vessel struck; and, with the dreadful shock, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAu0K2YnOh5i
Her oars she shiver'd, and her head she broke. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA79j7fN9tyG
The trembling rowers from their banks arise, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA5VJVtHLYo9
And, anxious for themselves, renounce the prize. 887Please respect copyright.PENANATjsmBrJxUq
With iron poles they heave her off the shores, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAoRa2mn32S2
And gather from the sea their floating oars. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAZ7QGZ98BoT
The crew of Mnestheus, with elated minds, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAtHC3RuYFyP
Urge their success, and call the willing winds; 887Please respect copyright.PENANA9IquZc7CLt
Then ply their oars, and cut their liquid way 887Please respect copyright.PENANACYmDqiZn9T
In larger compass on the roomy sea. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA7O6Vicx5k6
As, when the dove her rocky hold forsakes, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAMRg1fYgAsH
Rous'd in a fright, her sounding wings she shakes; 887Please respect copyright.PENANANzD8dgrxfD
The cavern rings with clatt'ring; out she flies, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAqsTKZg0AXZ
And leaves her callow care, and cleaves the skies: 887Please respect copyright.PENANATW4C6gxu0E
At first she flutters; but at length she springs 887Please respect copyright.PENANAVNRATmQVrM
To smoother flight, and shoots upon her wings: 887Please respect copyright.PENANARWIwPvpu5L
So Mnestheus in the Dolphin cuts the sea; 887Please respect copyright.PENANA4XwWaxTyKO
And, flying with a force, that force assists his way. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAQxRrlyOwq8
Sergesthus in the Centaur soon he pass'd, 887Please respect copyright.PENANATkCxYEdQAw
Wedg'd in the rocky shoals, and sticking fast. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAj1aLEZxfB6
In vain the victor he with cries implores, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAqFyefH5yX4
And practices to row with shatter'd oars. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAxrE8wsWbm1
Then Mnestheus bears with Gyas, and outflies: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAk0rJNKt10S
The ship, without a pilot, yields the prize. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAtC77jTfoQd
Unvanquish'd Scylla now alone remains; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAnZkyWociaK
Her he pursues, and all his vigor strains. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAFhbq6eBaeQ
Shouts from the fav'ring multitude arise; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAdknhi9A5kJ
Applauding Echo to the shouts replies; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAntXtU0Zofa
Shouts, wishes, and applause run rattling thro' the skies. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAEZYxp1lTVJ
These clamors with disdain the Scylla heard, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5P0VM2VzL
Much grudg'd the praise, but more the robb'd reward: 887Please respect copyright.PENANABysOphgSMD
Resolv'd to hold their own, they mend their pace, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAK2CgmFHklW
All obstinate to die, or gain the race. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAhzssv383Nf
Rais'd with success, the Dolphin swiftly ran; 887Please respect copyright.PENANA3u6uXndYvg
For they can conquer, who believe they can. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA9CPYov6AWR
Both urge their oars, and fortune both supplies, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAUmZfa1hCk5
And both perhaps had shar'd an equal prize; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAdTEQRSmruQ
When to the seas Cloanthus holds his hands, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA3toYT5YOxO
And succor from the wat'ry pow'rs demands: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAcfvg45canf
"Gods of the liquid realms, on which I row! 887Please respect copyright.PENANAvngxq0x1FW
If, giv'n by you, the laurel bind my brow, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAhm2S8wbiFS
Assist to make me guilty of my vow! 887Please respect copyright.PENANA2uP08fyUeo
A snow-white bull shall on your shore be slain; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAjlqBIitrXq
His offer'd entrails cast into the main, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA7MA8PPlgsy
And ruddy wine, from golden goblets thrown, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAtcOvFY0tzn
Your grateful gift and my return shall own." 887Please respect copyright.PENANAQUdYPw6bZh
The choir of nymphs, and Phorcus, from below, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAmkk0V4IdJw
With virgin Panopea, heard his vow; 887Please respect copyright.PENANADwRxiDRmHc
And old Portunus, with his breadth of hand, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAEkjMinx0R9
Push'd on, and sped the galley to the land. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAtoPyGpscFv
Swift as a shaft, or winged wind, she flies, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAL9JgrLhVxM
And, darting to the port, obtains the prize. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA4eClNYu9Ji
The herald summons all, and then proclaims 887Please respect copyright.PENANA7TuCUD6Pid
Cloanthus conqu'ror of the naval games. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAdRfDxPztby
The prince with laurel crowns the victor's head, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAyqRtkAdTlG
And three fat steers are to his vessel led, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAhVhMuwNS5l
The ship's reward; with gen'rous wine beside, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAI4AAgU0rbC
And sums of silver, which the crew divide. 887Please respect copyright.PENANABOgiOxDIr9
The leaders are distinguish'd from the rest; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAT1fGZtpKBW
The victor honor'd with a nobler vest, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAuVZTs2tOFf
Where gold and purple strive in equal rows, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAdaI1Y5p8AW
And needlework its happy cost bestows. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAO3XaJ30V30
There Ganymede is wrought with living art, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAywyjZ2sGxD
Chasing thro' Ida's groves the trembling hart: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAnYTemZSGMx
Breathless he seems, yet eager to pursue; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAA51aa8Kmzq
When from aloft descends, in open view, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAgp12Ocpw7I
The bird of Jove, and, sousing on his prey, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAKZc5tvxUuz
With crooked talons bears the boy away. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA2QPEJD2lX6
In vain, with lifted hands and gazing eyes, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAwa3ll3mNJE
His guards behold him soaring thro' the skies, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAyfu0gY58Kg
And dogs pursue his flight with imitated cries. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAUI9tAUmkii
Mnestheus the second victor was declar'd; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAxJJQIV7j1p
And, summon'd there, the second prize he shard. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAAVxbEjYjUC
A coat of mail, brave Demoleus bore, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAepHF64oCxI
More brave Aeneas from his shoulders tore, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAk3zKxIUskZ
In single combat on the Trojan shore: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAanJBltsnV2
This was ordain'd for Mnestheus to possess; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAHppl8FhW50
In war for his defense, for ornament in peace. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAlF6eAciQNS
Rich was the gift, and glorious to behold, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAVPbaNPvJNY
But yet so pond'rous with its plates of gold, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAzYIDPHu8DA
That scarce two servants could the weight sustain; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAlimdspG04s
Yet, loaded thus, Demoleus o'er the plain 887Please respect copyright.PENANAeu7ay1CeUk
Pursued and lightly seiz'd the Trojan train. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAGj03eXDwXA
The third, succeeding to the last reward, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA8wIJgQffIu
Two goodly bowls of massy silver shar'd, 887Please respect copyright.PENANADn9dpKPfzf
With figures prominent, and richly wrought, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAGkwUuY54mD
And two brass caldrons from Dodona brought. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAkfsvj5u5P8
Thus all, rewarded by the hero's hands, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAD93acY29DW
Their conqu'ring temples bound with purple bands; 887Please respect copyright.PENANA3mhc0ncBHr
And now Sergesthus, clearing from the rock, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAy3EYNhOPfn
Brought back his galley shatter'd with the shock. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAlmM9RnNtnF
Forlorn she look'd, without an aiding oar, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAFfgipcpwre
And, houted by the vulgar, made to shore. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAfokF9UpkTq
As when a snake, surpris'd upon the road, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAz1GIoM2eFa
Is crush'd athwart her body by the load 887Please respect copyright.PENANAnQkyB30yyD
Of heavy wheels; or with a mortal wound 887Please respect copyright.PENANAWnLHXcBaal
Her belly bruis'd, and trodden to the ground: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAemCU00zFbs
In vain, with loosen'd curls, she crawls along; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAIfZiNzPWDB
Yet, fierce above, she brandishes her tongue; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAzW8tbdAvZw
Glares with her eyes, and bristles with her scales; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAN01D9jPkyV
But, groveling in the dust, her parts unsound she trails: 887Please respect copyright.PENANASLqsNizrEE
So slowly to the port the Centaur tends, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAnTqIjrLunZ
But, what she wants in oars, with sails amends. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAkoF9HyguVh
Yet, for his galley sav'd, the grateful prince 887Please respect copyright.PENANAbqwTF48mqi
Is pleas'd th' unhappy chief to recompense. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAGxkt9oGIty
Pholoe, the Cretan slave, rewards his care, 887Please respect copyright.PENANACmK3IKItWM
Beauteous herself, with lovely twins as fair. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA8m8f3KmORk
From thence his way the Trojan hero bent 887Please respect copyright.PENANAkesNOeVi7y
Into the neighb'ring plain, with mountains pent, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAW1WJCZH18p
Whose sides were shaded with surrounding wood. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAWc65C21ZQn
Full in the midst of this fair valley stood 887Please respect copyright.PENANAQwCY4ZC7b9
A native theater, which, rising slow 887Please respect copyright.PENANA7DCFMD5Msm
By just degrees, o'erlook'd the ground below. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAVja3B3uMT5
High on a sylvan throne the leader sate; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAnF0jlXYfEP
A num'rous train attend in solemn state. 887Please respect copyright.PENANACf9I9gCobq
Here those that in the rapid course delight, 887Please respect copyright.PENANABsGfd3aB3K
Desire of honor and the prize invite. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAykBnlP1IXh
The rival runners without order stand; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAY5fqeK7YOF
The Trojans mix'd with the Sicilian band. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAFs9TxnQvyH
First Nisus, with Euryalus, appears; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAA1Z9x4d1kq
Euryalus a boy of blooming years, 887Please respect copyright.PENANALNvBtvrIkj
With sprightly grace and equal beauty crown'd; 887Please respect copyright.PENANADJg1u3Rftq
Nisus, for friendship to the youth renown'd. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA7jlo6df0GN
Diores next, of Priam's royal race, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA54c7KRwa33
Then Salius joined with Patron, took their place; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAw0JB3SkAda
(But Patron in Arcadia had his birth, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAbrgl8TugUk
And Salius his from Arcananian earth;) 887Please respect copyright.PENANALCz3pXIMAT
Then two Sicilian youths- the names of these, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAwwn6W4Eoc4
Swift Helymus, and lovely Panopes: 887Please respect copyright.PENANA48gPhX9H72
Both jolly huntsmen, both in forest bred, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAecCY2MhKJs
And owning old Acestes for their head; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAHF9uQhd7JL
With sev'ral others of ignobler name, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAD6ka7DSY3q
Whom time has not deliver'd o'er to fame. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAoI0IMb5HPW
To these the hero thus his thoughts explain'd, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAD5ZEvy6FQb
In words which gen'ral approbation gain'd: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAKxltH3ofFZ
"One common largess is for all design'd, 887Please respect copyright.PENANALsko7RhFGy
(The vanquish'd and the victor shall be join'd,) 887Please respect copyright.PENANAGMzmIG4rE7
Two darts of polish'd steel and Gnosian wood, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA17x4wBZDpX
A silver-studded ax, alike bestow'd. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAKmTunHJf0p
The foremost three have olive wreaths decreed: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAyHtTS4r7RC
The first of these obtains a stately steed, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAcNeIaQOHG9
Adorn'd with trappings; and the next in fame, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA9Zjo1onqyv
The quiver of an Amazonian dame, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAzD7WHZ63rV
With feather'd Thracian arrows well supplied: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAxA88q27aB7
A golden belt shall gird his manly side, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAMug4RZg2yd
Which with a sparkling diamond shall be tied. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAhvq6DneQnr
The third this Grecian helmet shall content." 887Please respect copyright.PENANAcgTqNe3xY5
He said. To their appointed base they went; 887Please respect copyright.PENANA3yhSEpz3OA
With beating hearts th' expected sign receive, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAMq2G7YdehA
And, starting all at once, the barrier leave. 887Please respect copyright.PENANACtwt6pV7Xt
Spread out, as on the winged winds, they flew, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA5G2thb0Uuh
And seiz'd the distant goal with greedy view. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAkFS4sqHFDO
Shot from the crowd, swift Nisus all o'erpass'd; 887Please respect copyright.PENANA4WkQu8mFGo
Nor storms, nor thunder, equal half his haste. 887Please respect copyright.PENANASfpq5J8IGt
The next, but tho' the next, yet far disjoin'd, 887Please respect copyright.PENANADfrJh8PO9P
Came Salius, and Euryalus behind; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAYys1T71h5N
Then Helymus, whom young Diores plied, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAdxh85MFu2P
Step after step, and almost side by side, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAqKVBfgG0hv
His shoulders pressing; and, in longer space, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAV0E6M3OAyb
Had won, or left at least a dubious race. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA5okizdnWwl
Now, spent, the goal they almost reach at last, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAvzO0U5Q7Jz
When eager Nisus, hapless in his haste, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAARN9cSF3dh
Slipp'd first, and, slipping, fell upon the plain, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAvo3ddSuZTN
Soak'd with the blood of oxen newly slain. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAiDtBmdEH8g
The careless victor had not mark'd his way; 887Please respect copyright.PENANA4QfF7dmeMA
But, treading where the treach'rous puddle lay, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAoRxAByuCbs
His heels flew up; and on the grassy floor 887Please respect copyright.PENANAlY1L8p9b8D
He fell, besmear'd with filth and holy gore. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAIplMsbQ3qQ
Not mindless then, Euryalus, of thee, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAuGZgCkHBIm
Nor of the sacred bonds of amity, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAfiKF7pL1ss
He strove th' immediate rival's hope to cross, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAmn2icjyxw5
And caught the foot of Salius as he rose. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAFEQIYDb4nZ
So Salius lay extended on the plain; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAOEBBs59g9f
Euryalus springs out, the prize to gain, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAUROajBqj3T
And leaves the crowd: applauding peals attend 887Please respect copyright.PENANApJ1rjz5xxG
The victor to the goal, who vanquish'd by his friend. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAoQTaBinaWj
Next Helymus; and then Diores came, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAu4e2dOmQ7p
By two misfortunes made the third in fame. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAnhmu9kWWo7
But Salius enters, and, exclaiming loud 887Please respect copyright.PENANAc62lPsCjFe
For justice, deafens and disturbs the crowd; 887Please respect copyright.PENANA0ltRQ44fWS
Urges his cause may in the court be heard; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAmyuDJqU8nw
And pleads the prize is wrongfully conferr'd. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAOb7imfxXlS
But favor for Euryalus appears; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAKAFDmAyHgY
His blooming beauty, with his tender tears, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAEom54vH93A
Had brib'd the judges for the promis'd prize. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAvRFpuzbuax
Besides, Diores fills the court with cries, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAncgBHubpyI
Who vainly reaches at the last reward, 887Please respect copyright.PENANALwkcHtYf9w
If the first palm on Salius be conferr'd. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAB3wPxj3vH6
Then thus the prince: "Let no disputes arise: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAsEki2qQQXR
Where fortune plac'd it, I award the prize. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAKVqvljxgPX
But fortune's errors give me leave to mend, 887Please respect copyright.PENANArwYV1hsFDI
At least to pity my deserving friend." 887Please respect copyright.PENANAYdBXG9XOhb
He said, and, from among the spoils, he draws 887Please respect copyright.PENANAJG5NyZxbdJ
(Pond'rous with shaggy mane and golden paws) 887Please respect copyright.PENANAY13u8ELEML
A lion's hide: to Salius this he gives. 887Please respect copyright.PENANANq0j3Evzfd
Nisus with envy sees the gift, and grieves. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAWMYdKxzNi0
"If such rewards to vanquish'd men are due." 887Please respect copyright.PENANAg0BhgenU2Q
He said, "and falling is to rise by you, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAqNTwFEXopM
What prize may Nisus from your bounty claim, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAJia2aqmPlq
Who merited the first rewards and fame? 887Please respect copyright.PENANAsyz20Gx7DE
In falling, both an equal fortune tried; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAZNF2wDlaYT
Would fortune for my fall so well provide!" 887Please respect copyright.PENANAQQPRCD6E7o
With this he pointed to his face, and show'd 887Please respect copyright.PENANAEXLfMOJDdr
His hand and all his habit smear'd with blood. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAeVd8yrRSgq
Th' indulgent father of the people smil'd, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAuBY1IW7Q6O
And caus'd to be produc'd an ample shield, 887Please respect copyright.PENANArwMax2TdGH
Of wondrous art, by Didymaon wrought, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA24PghYKzyY
Long since from Neptune's bars in triumph brought. 887Please respect copyright.PENANADUGrcm2auh
This giv'n to Nisus, he divides the rest, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAR3dO98QEXD
And equal justice in his gifts express'd. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAA46WGm5Ljs
The race thus ended, and rewards bestow'd, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAFxNnziHJ9A
Once more the princes bespeaks th' attentive crowd: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAPNHglWQjdb
"If there he here whose dauntless courage dare 887Please respect copyright.PENANApWSGshKT7X
In gauntlet-fight, with limbs and body bare, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAeWQYGLzCO0
His opposite sustain in open view, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAPuXPbLXqw8
Stand forth the champion, and the games renew. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAUdJwJXH54U
Two prizes I propose, and thus divide: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAcnG5dkTLAD
A bull with gilded horns, and fillets tied, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAX23Uvb52EQ
Shall be the portion of the conqu'ring chief; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAhlc1RfeLUe
A sword and helm shall cheer the loser's grief." 887Please respect copyright.PENANA3Trj9u1OO4
Then haughty Dares in the lists appears; 887Please respect copyright.PENANANYFOJkTLqb
Stalking he strides, his head erected bears: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAADQe7eOJ7j
His nervous arms the weighty gauntlet wield, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA2bfVIw9vtZ
And loud applauses echo thro' the field. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAAlD9IuYoLt
Dares alone in combat us'd to stand 887Please respect copyright.PENANAENf5zmxVGr
The match of mighty Paris, hand to hand; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAEY3CNVsV6B
The same, at Hector's fun'rals, undertook 887Please respect copyright.PENANAztzuObepBa
Gigantic Butes, of th' Amycian stock, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAWqKn22VKWk
And, by the stroke of his resistless hand, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAbhnIuOrwAN
Stretch'd the vast bulk upon the yellow sand. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAGPLYPrW1aL
Such Dares was; and such he strode along, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAbNoYOChkZ4
And drew the wonder of the gazing throng. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAOtLIu1fHG3
His brawny back and ample breast he shows, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAKfLseF3WLy
His lifted arms around his head he throws, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAQCK49vho2v
And deals in whistling air his empty blows. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA9j2KbI9yJg
His match is sought; but, thro' the trembling band, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAHD5wtM59jF
Not one dares answer to the proud demand. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA2tQkqrtvVo
Presuming of his force, with sparkling eyes 887Please respect copyright.PENANAbhyH90JcPc
Already he devours the promis'd prize. 887Please respect copyright.PENANANqPRwMuL69
He claims the bull with awless insolence, 887Please respect copyright.PENANARMZET1qyPg
And having seiz'd his horns, accosts the prince: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAzW7lvAMJ8u
"If none my matchless valor dares oppose, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAunG6LBy0h2
How long shall Dares wait his dastard foes? 887Please respect copyright.PENANAeyxVcWX1lC
Permit me, chief, permit without delay, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAhhD3Ert4IT
To lead this uncontended gift away." 887Please respect copyright.PENANAtvtvvewPLQ
The crowd assents, and with redoubled cries 887Please respect copyright.PENANA4AiiLXlC8z
For the proud challenger demands the prize. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAbc6tKuoXW1
Acestes, fir'd with just disdain, to see 887Please respect copyright.PENANAvTALEyCl77
The palm usurp'd without a victory, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAmeqHC7VAnq
Reproach'd Entellus thus, who sate beside, 887Please respect copyright.PENANACkRkvfiusS
And heard and saw, unmov'd, the Trojan's pride: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAiEGnXHzluP
"Once, but in vain, a champion of renown, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAp1kjdhExTX
So tamely can you bear the ravish'd crown, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAWtpPt3cEyl
A prize in triumph borne before your sight, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAmO6BF68UeV
And shun, for fear, the danger of the fight? 887Please respect copyright.PENANAmNioLM95Ox
Where is our Eryx now, the boasted name, 887Please respect copyright.PENANANSFOMB3WsV
The god who taught your thund'ring arm the game? 887Please respect copyright.PENANAP7O6ss1GAX
Where now your baffled honor? Where the spoil 887Please respect copyright.PENANAwKQq78xWHW
That fill'd your house, and fame that fill'd our isle?" 887Please respect copyright.PENANA4IPkrenP02
Entellus, thus: "My soul is still the same, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAzphkWUgHYE
Unmov'd with fear, and mov'd with martial fame; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAYPFHn87Rcm
But my chill blood is curdled in my veins, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAqjROBMkUf9
And scarce the shadow of a man remains. 887Please respect copyright.PENANADuIkZ4yBGa
O could I turn to that fair prime again, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAyQo0oqcqca
That prime of which this boaster is so vain, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAw3RpEJ9ug5
The brave, who this decrepid age defies, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAahwpe1HdHC
Should feel my force, without the promis'd prize." 887Please respect copyright.PENANAxlhSAxnR8C
He said; and, rising at the word, he threw 887Please respect copyright.PENANAFfNjQrwP68
Two pond'rous gauntlets down in open view; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAwc4YdDVzXP
Gauntlets which Eryx wont in fight to wield, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAmKRMSRFnTb
And sheathe his hands with in the listed field. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAjBxH552p3N
With fear and wonder seiz'd, the crowd beholds 887Please respect copyright.PENANArc8wGVgeYJ
The gloves of death, with sev'n distinguish'd folds 887Please respect copyright.PENANAyojRLqsRqC
Of tough bull hides; the space within is spread 887Please respect copyright.PENANAzCaBLJPZEj
With iron, or with loads of heavy lead: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAR8xAeA142N
Dares himself was daunted at the sight, 887Please respect copyright.PENANABQbNcn0TVY
Renounc'd his challenge, and refus'd to fight. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAzFSj7IAlCw
Astonish'd at their weight, the hero stands, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAcnBcXWaTgH
And pois'd the pond'rous engines in his hands. 887Please respect copyright.PENANATWPLC3Pbl3
"What had your wonder," said Entellus, "been, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAl2ULk9GHDL
Had you the gauntlets of Alcides seen, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAtxViEXE5xt
Or view'd the stern debate on this unhappy green! 887Please respect copyright.PENANA0TOaZLX7Ca
These which I bear your brother Eryx bore, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA0YvuJwEqqO
Still mark'd with batter'd brains and mingled gore. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAxEF5tq0zCs
With these he long sustain'd th' Herculean arm; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAUFAPuETznc
And these I wielded while my blood was warm, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAvKvzffQCYj
This languish'd frame while better spirits fed, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA0hZbX3bM44
Ere age unstrung my nerves, or time o'ersnow'd my head. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAqqV5SBUnLc
But if the challenger these arms refuse, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA6GnXzJk9fQ
And cannot wield their weight, or dare not use; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAvHrEugiNkb
If great Aeneas and Acestes join 887Please respect copyright.PENANAqgQj6OpxSW
In his request, these gauntlets I resign; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAP4Sme1twc8
Let us with equal arms perform the fight, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAx2yrWmSsB2
And let him leave to fear, since I resign my right." 887Please respect copyright.PENANAPHPwjkbP9I
This said, Entellus for the strife prepares; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAFSUvv0Zsts
Stripp'd of his quilted coat, his body bares; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAegL1zUb1Pk
Compos'd of mighty bones and brawn he stands, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAV2rBiMYg3w
A goodly tow'ring object on the sands. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAgxgQzFc0Cl
Then just Aeneas equal arms supplied, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAkthqFTuvsy
Which round their shoulders to their wrists they tied. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAzN4jCz1RQc
Both on the tiptoe stand, at full extent, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAwEk4FZzMfU
Their arms aloft, their bodies inly bent; 887Please respect copyright.PENANATcO8I0GrLK
Their heads from aiming blows they bear afar; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAwvzAMTxcA8
With clashing gauntlets then provoke the war. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAbOW62ih79P
One on his youth and pliant limbs relies; 887Please respect copyright.PENANA5yYoLTPKEF
One on his sinews and his giant size. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAtnx6iLeOH7
The last is stiff with age, his motion slow; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAe2EIgae55x
He heaves for breath, he staggers to and fro, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAwULFV9Qxkt
And clouds of issuing smoke his nostrils loudly blow. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA5QOuHIg5PW
Yet equal in success, they ward, they strike; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAtbxV7z7ZWB
Their ways are diff'rent, but their art alike. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAssM8PqaWWX
Before, behind, the blows are dealt; around 887Please respect copyright.PENANAM75g9qZien
Their hollow sides the rattling thumps resound. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAN7VcwdkuLC
A storm of strokes, well meant, with fury flies, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAORdlMO6LBd
And errs about their temples, ears, and eyes. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAe5UgxN8vrp
Nor always errs; for oft the gauntlet draws 887Please respect copyright.PENANA9XUEs3p18g
A sweeping stroke along the crackling jaws. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAYIsHuUd9eH
Heavy with age, Entellus stands his ground, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAZwaIZNUZs4
But with his warping body wards the wound. 887Please respect copyright.PENANACo65eoiYGe
His hand and watchful eye keep even pace; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAWKqvASEBcC
While Dares traverses and shifts his place, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAfKfQRrXSYH
And, like a captain who beleaguers round 887Please respect copyright.PENANA8CFJz8K6Yx
Some strong-built castle on a rising ground, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAe1yR1Gqhmj
Views all th' approaches with observing eyes: 887Please respect copyright.PENANARW4QMMsCvL
This and that other part in vain he tries, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAvx02lDE7tF
And more on industry than force relies. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAEaqukUl8pQ
With hands on high, Entellus threats the foe; 887Please respect copyright.PENANARORoCo7NxX
But Dares watch'd the motion from below, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAG1RtLtG1ku
And slipp'd aside, and shunn'd the long descending blow. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA1yWGfkAlxW
Entellus wastes his forces on the wind, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAVXGWfxTGIH
And, thus deluded of the stroke design'd, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAaz8geAWDwk
Headlong and heavy fell; his ample breast 887Please respect copyright.PENANAjYZMtT1XwN
And weighty limbs his ancient mother press'd. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAhMaHZ4N1qf
So falls a hollow pine, that long had stood 887Please respect copyright.PENANA8ZharPYpvE
On Ida's height, or Erymanthus' wood, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAaZjj5coUBI
Torn from the roots. The diff'ring nations rise, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAnl8mFeYgXv
And shouts and mingled murmurs rend the skies, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAOzcSFbHHjO
Acestus runs with eager haste, to raise 887Please respect copyright.PENANAJc4UXGcn4x
The fall'n companion of his youthful days. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAyIzZIRh0et
Dauntless he rose, and to the fight return'd; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAnICR33zgE0
With shame his glowing cheeks, his eyes with fury burn'd. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA88NCh2G34Z
Disdain and conscious virtue fir'd his breast, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAMLX6LCdjBB
And with redoubled force his foe he press'd. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAsUdySBEJ6e
He lays on load with either hand, amain, 887Please respect copyright.PENANALML1a63Il1
And headlong drives the Trojan o'er the plain; 887Please respect copyright.PENANA2xdH0hMH0b
Nor stops, nor stays; nor rest nor breath allows; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAHB857uMD7b
But storms of strokes descend about his brows, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAApCcbbQk24
A rattling tempest, and a hail of blows. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAoRVuJcaxne
But now the prince, who saw the wild increase 887Please respect copyright.PENANAl0IMAB45YL
Of wounds, commands the combatants to cease, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA8ekEEhlJMr
And bounds Entellus' wrath, and bids the peace. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAENLRiaRbDY
First to the Trojan, spent with toil, he came, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAVQWiWlU9fZ
And sooth'd his sorrow for the suffer'd shame. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAhPmJQCcOgV
"What fury seiz'd my friend? The gods," said he, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAQoTr6mQ1SL
"To him propitious, and averse to thee, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAjq5DQbR54J
Have giv'n his arm superior force to thine. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAudWb2kGUSV
'T is madness to contend with strength divine." 887Please respect copyright.PENANAZqQtfnYSZe
The gauntlet fight thus ended, from the shore 887Please respect copyright.PENANAbuIADltVi4
His faithful friends unhappy Dares bore: 887Please respect copyright.PENANATdOSIMu3B6
His mouth and nostrils pour'd a purple flood, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAxlauwDPCeW
And pounded teeth came rushing with his blood. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAdSIJTLWD04
Faintly he stagger'd thro' the hissing throng, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAaTDiXy3hYF
And hung his head, and trail'd his legs along. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA7ejQ6i7ySv
The sword and casque are carried by his train; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAzYUejhnecB
But with his foe the palm and ox remain. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAUx2wr2UlsT
The champion, then, before Aeneas came, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAu4ptw9RMPH
Proud of his prize, but prouder of his fame: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAnCst0kiM1D
"O goddess-born, and you, Dardanian host, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAMOywK7s6im
Mark with attention, and forgive my boast; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAjszrVFfDjQ
Learn what I was, by what remains; and know 887Please respect copyright.PENANAaT5sisoq8U
From what impending fate you sav'd my foe." 887Please respect copyright.PENANArXwLPkZyzF
Sternly he spoke, and then confronts the bull; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAVLfiDhtZBK
And, on his ample forehead aiming full, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA7rI6zgBuMT
The deadly stroke, descending, pierc'd the skull. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA8Ai9W3beBK
Down drops the beast, nor needs a second wound, 887Please respect copyright.PENANApTSYtvRkC3
But sprawls in pangs of death, and spurns the ground. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAwrRG4zK55r
Then, thus: "In Dares' stead I offer this. 887Please respect copyright.PENANARLTNpKfgbi
Eryx, accept a nobler sacrifice; 887Please respect copyright.PENANATPtFzHCRzr
Take the last gift my wither'd arms can yield: 887Please respect copyright.PENANABZT9pi9rfX
Thy gauntlets I resign, and here renounce the field." 887Please respect copyright.PENANAemjX6oNNum
This done, Aeneas orders, for the close, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA8yWPoCQmvV
The strife of archers with contending bows. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAsC9G6bIdQx
The mast Sergesthus' shatter'd galley bore 887Please respect copyright.PENANADIF6zKLYzw
With his own hands he raises on the shore. 887Please respect copyright.PENANACsmi8mDTpe
A flutt'ring dove upon the top they tie, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAGblcPZwxj9
The living mark at which their arrows fly. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAEWQZvn3i9H
The rival archers in a line advance, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAL9tq2SrKgr
Their turn of shooting to receive from chance. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAIEYkMa2FTM
A helmet holds their names; the lots are drawn: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAC0OIBSt05I
On the first scroll was read Hippocoon. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAWOEPLMItRN
The people shout. Upon the next was found 887Please respect copyright.PENANAcVGH28w8uN
Young Mnestheus, late with naval honors crown'd. 887Please respect copyright.PENANASLMqfmjNVG
The third contain'd Eurytion's noble name, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAGVMggQauam
Thy brother, Pandarus, and next in fame, 887Please respect copyright.PENANALHhacHYSds
Whom Pallas urg'd the treaty to confound, 887Please respect copyright.PENANABOcI4b7CqX
And send among the Greeks a feather'd wound. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAzenkC8tzna
Acestes in the bottom last remain'd, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA0wIFGKLWG9
Whom not his age from youthful sports restrain'd. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAekYFMzPFor
Soon all with vigor bend their trusty bows, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAaTXvxdi9vd
And from the quiver each his arrow chose. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAkAmOR0PLce
Hippocoon's was the first: with forceful sway 887Please respect copyright.PENANAE5bJRKLWFb
It flew, and, whizzing, cut the liquid way. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAK7gaa3p2ox
Fix'd in the mast the feather'd weapon stands: 887Please respect copyright.PENANA1PTeorWz3B
The fearful pigeon flutters in her bands, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAqO4raDACw8
And the tree trembled, and the shouting cries 887Please respect copyright.PENANAx4SGtlGobG
Of the pleas'd people rend the vaulted skies. 887Please respect copyright.PENANANrOaxGfu0O
Then Mnestheus to the head his arrow drove, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAcQN13sJOe2
With lifted eyes, and took his aim above, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAQVMiVUy3Zb
But made a glancing shot, and missed the dove; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAFUtDLBeeId
Yet miss'd so narrow, that he cut the cord 887Please respect copyright.PENANAmcs2PCa6LU
Which fasten'd by the foot the flitting bird. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAvdPYJv7tiT
The captive thus releas'd, away she flies, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA5gre0HwKRN
And beats with clapping wings the yielding skies. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAZvN3Vo6Hf6
His bow already bent, Eurytion stood; 887Please respect copyright.PENANA2v73cgubnz
And, having first invok'd his brother god, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAL3wW9bFlBc
His winged shaft with eager haste he sped. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAXZIRh9HQfh
The fatal message reach'd her as she fled: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAh3DOIk02td
She leaves her life aloft; she strikes the ground, 887Please respect copyright.PENANANvMpo6qtNw
And renders back the weapon in the wound. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAHpmKfGxqfk
Acestes, grudging at his lot, remains, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAjhr2WlVyxE
Without a prize to gratify his pains. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAjxrFkB6VuU
Yet, shooting upward, sends his shaft, to show 887Please respect copyright.PENANAOHuQLtuH3Q
An archer's art, and boast his twanging bow. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAvcQCsJltii
The feather'd arrow gave a dire portent, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAgbCMMAy13o
And latter augurs judge from this event. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAFlaW6qfiB1
Chaf'd by the speed, it fir'd; and, as it flew, 887Please respect copyright.PENANANkxQW7QFyZ
A trail of following flames ascending drew: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAWSELDgAiqa
Kindling they mount, and mark the shiny way; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAns4LYBZfd3
Across the skies as falling meteors play, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA5ZKMpGNmCL
And vanish into wind, or in a blaze decay. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAHJE4xSODN6
The Trojans and Sicilians wildly stare, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAbIfy9SDFuA
And, trembling, turn their wonder into pray'r. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAWoA1u3LqYE
The Dardan prince put on a smiling face, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA5k756eYt6a
And strain'd Acestes with a close embrace; 887Please respect copyright.PENANANhA2OfyaRy
Then, hon'ring him with gifts above the rest, 887Please respect copyright.PENANApRiF0xYwiD
Turn'd the bad omen, nor his fears confess'd. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAIO1O6Gcw5S
"The gods," said he, "this miracle have wrought, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAVlYgnrLP8x
And order'd you the prize without the lot. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAtnfsm4bN8J
Accept this goblet, rough with figur'd gold, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAjKxTWiRNlr
Which Thracian Cisseus gave my sire of old: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAYWJ3KDZaQN
This pledge of ancient amity receive, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAH7OEg7okLL
Which to my second sire I justly give." 887Please respect copyright.PENANA36NYfTXB4B
He said, and, with the trumpets' cheerful sound, 887Please respect copyright.PENANABDPkCJ8WbS
Proclaim'd him victor, and with laurel-crown'd. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAiKdGXA2zAM
Nor good Eurytion envied him the prize, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA8SxGfxnprc
Tho' he transfix'd the pigeon in the skies. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAa4B3fjwOUy
Who cut the line, with second gifts was grac'd; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAWu12oJdAtb
The third was his whose arrow pierc'd the mast. 887Please respect copyright.PENANACUAaQLjkI0
The chief, before the games were wholly done, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAZl4nq89bGQ
Call'd Periphantes, tutor to his son, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAcHdUMDNuBV
And whisper'd thus: "With speed Ascanius find; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAAEdzBuQTlI
And, if his childish troop be ready join'd, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAvjsqfZ8QEq
On horseback let him grace his grandsire's day, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAw1ff4aWSXS
And lead his equals arm'd in just array." 887Please respect copyright.PENANAFcVEWieYl5
He said; and, calling out, the cirque he clears. 887Please respect copyright.PENANABvLAZFEfWx
The crowd withdrawn, an open plain appears. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAxfDiOHgzif
And now the noble youths, of form divine, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAJebnKyCpOo
Advance before their fathers, in a line; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAfVIxCafFDj
The riders grace the steeds; the steeds with glory shine. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAnTkyWNsNEY
Thus marching on in military pride, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAs7qJNPzxTS
Shouts of applause resound from side to side. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAMnyOVcuUTp
Their casques adorn'd with laurel wreaths they wear, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAh9FATQgalP
Each brandishing aloft a cornel spear. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAtLDuFCEOqf
Some at their backs their gilded quivers bore; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAlQmZ3i5AgK
Their chains of burnish'd gold hung down before. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAkPepWiwo5w
Three graceful troops they form'd upon the green; 887Please respect copyright.PENANA0DiQvMmAQ8
Three graceful leaders at their head were seen; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAwhU0EX3tki
Twelve follow'd ev'ry chief, and left a space between. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAHiWMxESFbZ
The first young Priam led; a lovely boy, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAEEXHmERRuW
Whose grandsire was th' unhappy king of Troy; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAgcGMKXUW4C
His race in after times was known to fame, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAlij5s4vd7p
New honors adding to the Latian name; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAM1MHVhcsFy
And well the royal boy his Thracian steed became. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAe7DNhjfbIH
White were the fetlocks of his feet before, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAvbcmQIe8sO
And on his front a snowy star he bore. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAEmLoN8xiRq
Then beauteous Atys, with Iulus bred, 887Please respect copyright.PENANADDm9Etb4zp
Of equal age, the second squadron led. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAPP8NSrMPV8
The last in order, but the first in place, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAy2lZKUzZPp
First in the lovely features of his face, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAEVuqcJBRLH
Rode fair Ascanius on a fiery steed, 887Please respect copyright.PENANApFWc8DFLmq
Queen Dido's gift, and of the Tyrian breed. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAoUjy3HLlXs
Sure coursers for the rest the king ordains, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAqlMVsdd4Q2
With golden bits adorn'd, and purple reins. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAy58VM1oa13
The pleas'd spectators peals of shouts renew, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAnvXw9aSiB6
And all the parents in the children view; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAftV989XcX2
Their make, their motions, and their sprightly grace, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAfdY3jXJTBw
And hopes and fears alternate in their face. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAtD2zz5ntHr
Th' unfledg'd commanders and their martial train 887Please respect copyright.PENANAvFqadWOajQ
First make the circuit of the sandy plain 887Please respect copyright.PENANAlbEylOT8Y1
Around their sires, and, at th' appointed sign, 887Please respect copyright.PENANACh2ggc35KC
Drawn up in beauteous order, form a line. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA05l2xkakWJ
The second signal sounds, the troop divides 887Please respect copyright.PENANAhZpO82hHe9
In three distinguish'd parts, with three distinguish'd guides 887Please respect copyright.PENANAyrVlZZWNy1
Again they close, and once again disjoin; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAAWxdZJncJ9
In troop to troop oppos'd, and line to line. 887Please respect copyright.PENANArHvPofNdO3
They meet; they wheel; they throw their darts afar 887Please respect copyright.PENANAffOTwrf4RP
With harmless rage and well-dissembled war. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAmExeV3fgxO
Then in a round the mingled bodies run: 887Please respect copyright.PENANADPclo2N6Oe
Flying they follow, and pursuing shun; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAMQ4QdjeHBx
Broken, they break; and, rallying, they renew 887Please respect copyright.PENANA97fgqlKxIH
In other forms the military shew. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA6ip6Ei6OAy
At last, in order, undiscern'd they join, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA0qooLDhgsS
And march together in a friendly line. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAQBH9sxhOMo
And, as the Cretan labyrinth of old, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAhBjxej9uZs
With wand'ring ways and many a winding fold, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAIstg6fpXR2
Involv'd the weary feet, without redress, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAxrKPoPQaeX
In a round error, which denied recess; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAIMoeM4lQZS
So fought the Trojan boys in warlike play, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAXq3mH45Wo8
Turn'd and return'd, and still a diff'rent way. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA6vuWzDfdKz
Thus dolphins in the deep each other chase 887Please respect copyright.PENANAgTf6htpgVI
In circles, when they swim around the wat'ry race. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA4L2oB4SKSi
This game, these carousels, Ascanius taught; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAMUuyzYfC9z
And, building Alba, to the Latins brought; 887Please respect copyright.PENANA1bltNVPZku
Shew'd what he learn'd: the Latin sires impart 887Please respect copyright.PENANA9S9GbmAlW3
To their succeeding sons the graceful art; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAFcXiZ7j5W3
From these imperial Rome receiv'd the game, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA5p3FkloExQ
Which Troy, the youths the Trojan troop, they name. 887Please respect copyright.PENANArb6ibxnoW4
Thus far the sacred sports they celebrate: 887Please respect copyright.PENANADT6Y9cox9e
But Fortune soon resum'd her ancient hate; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAgosdlba6Rn
For, while they pay the dead his annual dues, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAalq5UzjhWb
Those envied rites Saturnian Juno views; 887Please respect copyright.PENANANO1ai4IufK
And sends the goddess of the various bow, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAyeAraz9rq6
To try new methods of revenge below; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAtE9ue5yyMo
Supplies the winds to wing her airy way, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA3GoyeNZYj2
Where in the port secure the navy lay. 887Please respect copyright.PENANArg0pSy4lKX
Swiftly fair Iris down her arch descends, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAwfGB195FZL
And, undiscern'd, her fatal voyage ends. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAqIbEzQGnje
She saw the gath'ring crowd; and, gliding thence, 887Please respect copyright.PENANASuV0WFh3m6
The desart shore, and fleet without defense. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAonr3ZNBXZt
The Trojan matrons, on the sands alone, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAFhJ1OcoeXN
With sighs and tears Anchises' death bemoan; 887Please respect copyright.PENANA77FoA5n5oy
Then, turning to the sea their weeping eyes, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAbIenYpr2Q6
Their pity to themselves renews their cries. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAFg5ToIPm9h
"Alas!" said one, "what oceans yet remain 887Please respect copyright.PENANAZYJ93Dfx9f
For us to sail! what labors to sustain!" 887Please respect copyright.PENANAEEJUUAbNrE
All take the word, and, with a gen'ral groan, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA1hevRyH0Es
Implore the gods for peace, and places of their own. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAztTELPKw88
The goddess, great in mischief, views their pains, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAXVXU9qjxWa
And in a woman's form her heav'nly limbs restrains. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAR6XVhKynEJ
In face and shape old Beroe she became, 887Please respect copyright.PENANANoqijKD9of
Doryclus' wife, a venerable dame, 887Please respect copyright.PENANABtOXuk2JbK
Once blest with riches, and a mother's name. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAOxwep1NeUK
Thus chang'd, amidst the crying crowd she ran, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAYs0x8ju8Qt
Mix'd with the matrons, and these words began: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAgkH9cBM1ym
"O wretched we, whom not the Grecian pow'r, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAfiR8B2G9Uj
Nor flames, destroy'd, in Troy's unhappy hour! 887Please respect copyright.PENANAeFCHzTnjBs
O wretched we, reserv'd by cruel fate, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA4dGlKOXEVT
Beyond the ruins of the sinking state! 887Please respect copyright.PENANAwaGnTTXFCU
Now sev'n revolving years are wholly run, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAv1gTbFOIay
Since this improsp'rous voyage we begun; 887Please respect copyright.PENANACKcgsTuUIe
Since, toss'd from shores to shores, from lands to lands, 887Please respect copyright.PENANABajGuWZeLd
Inhospitable rocks and barren sands, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAHI753yQm7e
Wand'ring in exile thro' the stormy sea, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAEaIwFbSNy8
We search in vain for flying Italy. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAwrt00gfTU7
Now cast by fortune on this kindred land, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA3KPTyCjEOw
What should our rest and rising walls withstand, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAX23NLjUtD3
Or hinder here to fix our banish'd band? 887Please respect copyright.PENANAInlvJAgQij
O country lost, and gods redeem'd in vain, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAYypAugoozE
If still in endless exile we remain! 887Please respect copyright.PENANAhG731ODHkO
Shall we no more the Trojan walls renew, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAp7VOVMHjLA
Or streams of some dissembled Simois view! 887Please respect copyright.PENANA80yo594aDw
Haste, join with me, th' unhappy fleet consume! 887Please respect copyright.PENANASdTVmIE5sQ
Cassandra bids; and I declare her doom. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAeCxO5D4rsG
In sleep I saw her; she supplied my hands 887Please respect copyright.PENANAmaJhR3s4ba
(For this I more than dreamt) with flaming brands: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAphH8jJYxoo
'With these,' said she, 'these wand'ring ships destroy: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAukDOlivqsS
These are your fatal seats, and this your Troy.' 887Please respect copyright.PENANA24u0isB8Lh
Time calls you now; the precious hour employ: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAofenrwGbFY
Slack not the good presage, while Heav'n inspires 887Please respect copyright.PENANAZtCE2oYc2p
Our minds to dare, and gives the ready fires. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAWFa2sY7pK4
See! Neptune's altars minister their brands: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAc2K8YBHJ00
The god is pleas'd; the god supplies our hands." 887Please respect copyright.PENANA1J1iFaUOdL
Then from the pile a flaming fire she drew, 887Please respect copyright.PENANACwmRlFg5Nz
And, toss'd in air, amidst the galleys threw. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA86qLvise20
Wrapp'd in amaze, the matrons wildly stare: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAGt10oCcJ91
Then Pyrgo, reverenc'd for her hoary hair, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA13wI550frg
Pyrgo, the nurse of Priam's num'rous race: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAjskyyWB1TD
"No Beroe this, tho' she belies her face! 887Please respect copyright.PENANAqcAbE4YozU
What terrors from her frowning front arise! 887Please respect copyright.PENANA7t2gn368to
Behold a goddess in her ardent eyes! 887Please respect copyright.PENANAnJsIwcruYW
What rays around her heav'nly face are seen! 887Please respect copyright.PENANAuRrwc0CF7N
Mark her majestic voice, and more than mortal mien! 887Please respect copyright.PENANAj1XhRXevNB
Beroe but now I left, whom, pin'd with pain, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAYlwPPn2CrG
Her age and anguish from these rites detain," 887Please respect copyright.PENANAUgVHzOcXDU
She said. The matrons, seiz'd with new amaze, 887Please respect copyright.PENANASO4W8X77HI
Roll their malignant eyes, and on the navy gaze. 887Please respect copyright.PENANADwOdOQjOt9
They fear, and hope, and neither part obey: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAfkuf1uj1KW
They hope the fated land, but fear the fatal way. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAFuoK7LjGtK
The goddess, having done her task below, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA7q0S0AQv3F
Mounts up on equal wings, and bends her painted bow. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAKYGMrdHb3w
Struck with the sight, and seiz'd with rage divine, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAMidmbCqpzA
The matrons prosecute their mad design: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAqA9vQ0TFfz
They shriek aloud; they snatch, with impious hands, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAQOAfMnv8Av
The food of altars; fires and flaming brands. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAE7jNPH9ryl
Green boughs and saplings, mingled in their haste, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAe1sdq6KEbw
And smoking torches, on the ships they cast. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAHt7HTQJQsL
The flame, unstopp'd at first, more fury gains, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA0aWdjXx7Rx
And Vulcan rides at large with loosen'd reins: 887Please respect copyright.PENANA8Lkl1QIBM0
Triumphant to the painted sterns he soars, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAMMD4LMmA9S
And seizes, in this way, the banks and crackling oars. 887Please respect copyright.PENANABJjpil5G90
Eumelus was the first the news to bear, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAakFbj1pvCN
While yet they crowd the rural theater. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAmChjI6XhpV
Then, what they hear, is witness'd by their eyes: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAZ7Wt99Mbvv
A storm of sparkles and of flames arise. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAPx1ANMlZ0c
Ascanius took th' alarm, while yet he led 887Please respect copyright.PENANAUQQ7DGlsaZ
His early warriors on his prancing steed, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAxNO7fsXJbr
And, spurring on, his equals soon o'erpass'd; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAP5V9Wm3aWu
Nor could his frighted friends reclaim his haste. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAaXI3X0dVyz
Soon as the royal youth appear'd in view, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA5s2PZKRsPH
He sent his voice before him as he flew: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAaAImeyyFGB
"What madness moves you, matrons, to destroy 887Please respect copyright.PENANAejd8hMNeM2
The last remainders of unhappy Troy! 887Please respect copyright.PENANA5vmErwTJS5
Not hostile fleets, but your own hopes, you burn, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAFv5jhHXU3s
And on your friends your fatal fury turn. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAtYdbrC285b
Behold your own Ascanius!" While he said, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAqRl6G2snXs
He drew his glitt'ring helmet from his head, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA9bXKzswZfA
In which the youths to sportful arms he led. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAmEA1toW1qd
By this, Aeneas and his train appear; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAiNLmmdziTU
And now the women, seiz'd with shame and fear, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAsfxRA34TIM
Dispers'd, to woods and caverns take their flight, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAqyzOQ0Xjk4
Abhor their actions, and avoid the light; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAdxK9m9B1fK
Their friends acknowledge, and their error find, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA1htaBOi9Oz
And shake the goddess from their alter'd mind. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAHEFrfe14yH
Not so the raging fires their fury cease, 887Please respect copyright.PENANArCfiBqLYoQ
But, lurking in the seams, with seeming peace, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA8VfsVHMktu
Work on their way amid the smold'ring tow, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA7dgS49UQ44
Sure in destruction, but in motion slow. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAPxhAeBJLSC
The silent plague thro' the green timber eats, 887Please respect copyright.PENANADUqrR7eQzD
And vomits out a tardy flame by fits. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAFgYlul7APb
Down to the keels, and upward to the sails, 887Please respect copyright.PENANADDfqzjAjLr
The fire descends, or mounts, but still prevails; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAixfRWk1OC2
Nor buckets pour'd, nor strength of human hand, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAIoQ2noonqs
Can the victorious element withstand. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA6C7oJXGqv5
The pious hero rends his robe, and throws 887Please respect copyright.PENANAyxkggamzyB
To heav'n his hands, and with his hands his vows. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAyoz4nl2snn
"O Jove," he cried, "if pray'rs can yet have place; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAYaK87OUsVD
If thou abhorr'st not all the Dardan race; 887Please respect copyright.PENANA6z4rmvW7hc
If any spark of pity still remain; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAr8RiCPXaZt
If gods are gods, and not invok'd in vain; 887Please respect copyright.PENANABFdbA3eqzQ
Yet spare the relics of the Trojan train! 887Please respect copyright.PENANADEF7VP2Bkq
Yet from the flames our burning vessels free, 887Please respect copyright.PENANATUdma48pE1
Or let thy fury fall alone on me! 887Please respect copyright.PENANAt8nyCoBB0r
At this devoted head thy thunder throw, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAl25d3nrVVB
And send the willing sacrifice below!" 887Please respect copyright.PENANAj1WN0RrI71
Scarce had he said, when southern storms arise: 887Please respect copyright.PENANA6w2l6Ulg9C
From pole to pole the forky lightning flies; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAZbz20pmIzp
Loud rattling shakes the mountains and the plain; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAHeLMvp6p3H
Heav'n bellies downward, and descends in rain. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAI3s2Rq4wUy
Whole sheets of water from the clouds are sent, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAhcnuxlRjY9
Which, hissing thro' the planks, the flames prevent, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAQ1zjyDWU5z
And stop the fiery pest. Four ships alone 887Please respect copyright.PENANAKOuUpqFkon
Burn to the waist, and for the fleet atone. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAiFQ1vgm6xY
But doubtful thoughts the hero's heart divide; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAhpPrJyrlmI
If he should still in Sicily reside, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA92SmiNRkMD
Forgetful of his fates, or tempt the main, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAFHcjQH8AKD
In hope the promis'd Italy to gain. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAolW9cIfs1V
Then Nautes, old and wise, to whom alone 887Please respect copyright.PENANAGOPhFiZKgo
The will of Heav'n by Pallas was foreshown; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAp6cVIPp2XL
Vers'd in portents, experienc'd, and inspir'd 887Please respect copyright.PENANAmrzIQRRVH2
To tell events, and what the fates requir'd; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAUarmNN1slN
Thus while he stood, to neither part inclin'd, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAdm3GkTBfMo
With cheerful words reliev'd his lab'ring mind: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAX4nREuzchR
"O goddess-born, resign'd in ev'ry state, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAZ8eYTUXh5s
With patience bear, with prudence push your fate. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAXT1sl2kyZK
By suff'ring well, our Fortune we subdue; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAk6NqxlvUAi
Fly when she frowns, and, when she calls, pursue. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAHWnK4k70YT
Your friend Acestes is of Trojan kind; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAi0E9Ft3Dei
To him disclose the secrets of your mind: 887Please respect copyright.PENANA71Rb5NUYOu
Trust in his hands your old and useless train; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAldOKTEgFYH
Too num'rous for the ships which yet remain: 887Please respect copyright.PENANA9GDGXiMjXI
The feeble, old, indulgent of their ease, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA0uzlgF0uIO
The dames who dread the dangers of the seas, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA54jPR9PeEH
With all the dastard crew, who dare not stand 887Please respect copyright.PENANAGghmP5oy4e
The shock of battle with your foes by land. 887Please respect copyright.PENANADDj757iKUH
Here you may build a common town for all, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAGND3nP01WK
And, from Acestes' name, Acesta call." 887Please respect copyright.PENANArMbtF0QbgR
The reasons, with his friend's experience join'd, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAsGVq2Bi3Pc
Encourag'd much, but more disturb'd his mind. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAz0RksndC9V
'T was dead of night; when to his slumb'ring eyes 887Please respect copyright.PENANAOuKlB8B0Is
His father's shade descended from the skies, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAQY2theKYnQ
And thus he spoke: "O more than vital breath, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA9506kjq11s
Lov'd while I liv'd, and dear ev'n after death; 887Please respect copyright.PENANApDL1WwwmR7
O son, in various toils and troubles toss'd, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAzOYR2rKohV
The King of Heav'n employs my careful ghost 887Please respect copyright.PENANAy6lWFDTpX4
On his commands: the god, who sav'd from fire 887Please respect copyright.PENANADUrNOdEgLV
Your flaming fleet, and heard your just desire. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAh0hjjKLbKU
The wholesome counsel of your friend receive, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAfG55uBvz7R
And here the coward train and woman leave: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAiQBuy8qmnJ
The chosen youth, and those who nobly dare, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAdfUiJwFvQS
Transport, to tempt the dangers of the war. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAyh3bcmH4Yv
The stern Italians will their courage try; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAbyPDSg6bk8
Rough are their manners, and their minds are high. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAuk8pGeP5fJ
But first to Pluto's palace you shall go, 887Please respect copyright.PENANASlaeyHZiOc
And seek my shade among the blest below: 887Please respect copyright.PENANA33BFIlfi6S
For not with impious ghosts my soul remains, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAja3SILlld8
Nor suffers with the damn'd perpetual pains, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAMxJPumkvQC
But breathes the living air of soft Elysian plains. 887Please respect copyright.PENANARPRBfYXd3b
The chaste Sibylla shall your steps convey, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAnK95jf28CZ
And blood of offer'd victims free the way. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAQn90D71NYG
There shall you know what realms the gods assign, 887Please respect copyright.PENANACK5Ajb7eYS
And learn the fates and fortunes of your line. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAuBZkw0F0kd
But now, farewell! I vanish with the night, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA9Xwwzo1N2k
And feel the blast of heav'n's approaching light." 887Please respect copyright.PENANAJVrOQEp5ld
He said, and mix'd with shades, and took his airy flight. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAtlvEJMziDA
"Whither so fast?" the filial duty cried; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAankh0hnGpL
"And why, ah why, the wish'd embrace denied?" 887Please respect copyright.PENANAHLDfLL82HF
He said, and rose; as holy zeal inspires, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAaXJ3KwjsFc
He rakes hot embers, and renews the fires; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAu8OKYpDEw8
His country gods and Vesta then adores 887Please respect copyright.PENANAcSRzqSc63D
With cakes and incense, and their aid implores. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAIYMhZUBWNU
Next, for his friends and royal host he sent, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAMQGBMp4k2O
Reveal'd his vision, and the gods' intent, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAwTNYZF9TWa
With his own purpose. All, without delay, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA4mTLaVUw0B
The will of Jove, and his desires obey. 887Please respect copyright.PENANASPu1EbFBHp
They list with women each degenerate name, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAgfp3zhEJLh
Who dares not hazard life for future fame. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAv01bpeyBhb
These they cashier: the brave remaining few, 887Please respect copyright.PENANACDypABc5Z6
Oars, banks, and cables, half consum'd, renew. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAvVnfr9Hh1b
The prince designs a city with the plow; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAqIqVxdtfiS
The lots their sev'ral tenements allow. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAlPPJWBZxp8
This part is nam'd from Ilium, that from Troy, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAZVzdhgNtT9
And the new king ascends the throne with joy; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAHeNGFbpnXP
A chosen senate from the people draws; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAa5NqH8qSwN
Appoints the judges, and ordains the laws. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAH6flQpSPed
Then, on the top of Eryx, they begin 887Please respect copyright.PENANAeGtdZTLkyo
A rising temple to the Paphian queen. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA8xGSybeO0U
Anchises, last, is honor'd as a god; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAIT2dOKTJ65
A priest is added, annual gifts bestow'd, 887Please respect copyright.PENANArP3yYIUo3t
And groves are planted round his blest abode. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAdrqAcvBzbi
Nine days they pass in feasts, their temples crown'd; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAiFeB3QAVvd
And fumes of incense in the fanes abound. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA1Q3EjYinHn
Then from the south arose a gentle breeze 887Please respect copyright.PENANAT1wd2CaqXW
That curl'd the smoothness of the glassy seas; 887Please respect copyright.PENANA08TLvxgcVf
The rising winds a ruffling gale afford, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAAboHEEeHCe
And call the merry mariners aboard. 887Please respect copyright.PENANANXBrDpCMkl
Now loud laments along the shores resound, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAbN0YkxrTyA
Of parting friends in close embraces bound. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAs0bgTXuIwR
The trembling women, the degenerate train, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAiKpXQWl4lg
Who shunn'd the frightful dangers of the main, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAsYjCEGzrKT
Ev'n those desire to sail, and take their share 887Please respect copyright.PENANA7GhaFStSML
Of the rough passage and the promis'd war: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAFt414sAeK3
Whom good Aeneas cheers, and recommends 887Please respect copyright.PENANAmWs3BA1zoI
To their new master's care his fearful friends. 887Please respect copyright.PENANApxnvnpTfgg
On Eryx's altars three fat calves he lays; 887Please respect copyright.PENANA6y8he5yhsu
A lamb new-fallen to the stormy seas; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAH1SpC3ir5A
Then slips his haulsers, and his anchors weighs. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAoCL7Ifi047
High on the deck the godlike hero stands, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAtCZnTVE1Ma
With olive crown'd, a charger in his hands; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAP1egODqsgD
Then cast the reeking entrails in the brine, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAaM8gNPusi9
And pour'd the sacrifice of purple wine. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAVn9ADOhiq8
Fresh gales arise; with equal strokes they vie, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAOT1v3rP7R5
And brush the buxom seas, and o'er the billows fly. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAOj3m4F3aVX
Meantime the mother goddess, full of fears, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAzgjrqYBac3
To Neptune thus address'd, with tender tears: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAu0zFI1kKUV
"The pride of Jove's imperious queen, the rage, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAAZrrxgjg0Q
The malice which no suff'rings can assuage, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAJfQ0HzsSZh
Compel me to these pray'rs; since neither fate, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAjCunLRq3zD
Nor time, nor pity, can remove her hate: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAsXW5vCw4fk
Ev'n Jove is thwarted by his haughty wife; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAWRS824sCfm
Still vanquish'd, yet she still renews the strife. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAsFT1Ra2jxG
As if 't were little to consume the town 887Please respect copyright.PENANA7MHyC1bFb9
Which aw'd the world, and wore th' imperial crown, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAkZduXNpHXk
She prosecutes the ghost of Troy with pains, 887Please respect copyright.PENANArh94r115WZ
And gnaws, ev'n to the bones, the last remains. 887Please respect copyright.PENANACBOsFcFJSO
Let her the causes of her hatred tell; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAAscpqGR7nI
But you can witness its effects too well. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAP5tgwMuLVF
You saw the storm she rais'd on Libyan floods, 887Please respect copyright.PENANABhYeBYNnuU
That mix'd the mounting billows with the clouds; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAIIBl3RklB3
When, bribing Aeolus, she shook the main, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAvWTesrBUea
And mov'd rebellion in your wat'ry reign. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAOPA4seeL5H
With fury she possess'd the Dardan dames, 887Please respect copyright.PENANADd18EAMbcC
To burn their fleet with execrable flames, 887Please respect copyright.PENANATd8a744pUn
And forc'd Aeneas, when his ships were lost, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA15R1I8OM6U
To leave his foll'wers on a foreign coast. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAa2weodjFKs
For what remains, your godhead I implore, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAfmcnePPdFd
And trust my son to your protecting pow'r. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAcjjr73QLTa
If neither Jove's nor Fate's decree withstand, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAX4YLA5ymj1
Secure his passage to the Latian land." 887Please respect copyright.PENANAH9f0FAelxF
Then thus the mighty Ruler of the Main: 887Please respect copyright.PENANANC1adSRJPU
"What may not Venus hope from Neptune's reign? 887Please respect copyright.PENANAzjzwg4zcVz
My kingdom claims your birth; my late defense 887Please respect copyright.PENANAp1nWV0nB2f
Of your indanger'd fleet may claim your confidence. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAQO2J7T2NJt
Nor less by land than sea my deeds declare 887Please respect copyright.PENANAuqmF82MFbl
How much your lov'd Aeneas is my care. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAsLRmxNvqzY
Thee, Xanthus, and thee, Simois, I attest. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAipwrIJfOlv
Your Trojan troops when proud Achilles press'd, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAsnP56lEXuN
And drove before him headlong on the plain, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAL014dbSvYh
And dash'd against the walls the trembling train; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAYsUvwR75qM
When floods were fill'd with bodies of the slain; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAdIT5tmvYWK
When crimson Xanthus, doubtful of his way, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAiJxIX2ZHvy
Stood up on ridges to behold the sea; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAXcn306STRc
(New heaps came tumbling in, and chok'd his way;) 887Please respect copyright.PENANA4Ud2cBhotQ
When your Aeneas fought, but fought with odds 887Please respect copyright.PENANA8CFWS0Rrlc
Of force unequal, and unequal gods; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAiJqJsze65t
I spread a cloud before the victor's sight, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAWIU9GJ6ZsA
Sustain'd the vanquish'd, and secur'd his flight; 887Please respect copyright.PENANApW8Nzes8o6
Ev'n then secur'd him, when I sought with joy 887Please respect copyright.PENANAxnWz0qGMem
The vow'd destruction of ungrateful Troy. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAS9nFs4jura
My will's the same: fair goddess, fear no more, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAc7RwI1WSvb
Your fleet shall safely gain the Latian shore; 887Please respect copyright.PENANApAHteIJz6v
Their lives are giv'n; one destin'd head alone 887Please respect copyright.PENANAO876LtDttY
Shall perish, and for multitudes atone." 887Please respect copyright.PENANA9yzf2r5QKQ
Thus having arm'd with hopes her anxious mind, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAa6ProG2GHb
His finny team Saturnian Neptune join'd, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAIbNuNh3qLD
Then adds the foamy bridle to their jaws, 887Please respect copyright.PENANACcdijY0nOP
And to the loosen'd reins permits the laws. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAEPbNfN6mXB
High on the waves his azure car he guides; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAhnOxcDl2vF
Its axles thunder, and the sea subsides, 887Please respect copyright.PENANANuU9djxNif
And the smooth ocean rolls her silent tides. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAlZ3OJ25nZ4
The tempests fly before their father's face, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAAh330hnGu8
Trains of inferior gods his triumph grace, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA3Xrl5hBsfl
And monster whales before their master play, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAYnosUj4VAM
And choirs of Tritons crowd the wat'ry way. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAXfdi1LhcTU
The marshal'd pow'rs in equal troops divide 887Please respect copyright.PENANARx2Ykbm3Qe
To right and left; the gods his better side 887Please respect copyright.PENANA099lWJRx9y
Inclose, and on the worse the Nymphs and Nereids ride. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA9VmmvpyO2Z
Now smiling hope, with sweet vicissitude, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAXVRT0mNt1u
Within the hero's mind his joys renew'd. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAl6j9vF4bpY
He calls to raise the masts, the sheets display; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAGqVKKuJRSJ
The cheerful crew with diligence obey; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAKaQ13ovDEJ
They scud before the wind, and sail in open sea. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAvPhtRSGpe9
Ahead of all the master pilot steers; 887Please respect copyright.PENANA9Zqeb93Wkc
And, as he leads, the following navy veers. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA8JdVpg3j5y
The steeds of Night had travel'd half the sky, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAOooIdVPKQm
The drowsy rowers on their benches lie, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAUekBB1H0zQ
When the soft God of Sleep, with easy flight, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAfarTLBqQeL
Descends, and draws behind a trail of light. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAd6iewz62sO
Thou, Palinurus, art his destin'd prey; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAzyio5uTj6M
To thee alone he takes his fatal way. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAq6MjpXE3on
Dire dreams to thee, and iron sleep, he bears; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAK7DkcgvTD9
And, lighting on thy prow, the form of Phorbas wears. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAy7D3EBX2LI
Then thus the traitor god began his tale: 887Please respect copyright.PENANA6N6yTDVe9K
"The winds, my friend, inspire a pleasing gale; 887Please respect copyright.PENANASs9u1DaS5G
The ships, without thy care, securely sail. 887Please respect copyright.PENANANW4j8A69Jf
Now steal an hour of sweet repose; and I 887Please respect copyright.PENANA9DM3I5CFwt
Will take the rudder and thy room supply." 887Please respect copyright.PENANA90zm8NQduT
To whom the yawning pilot, half asleep: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAclt3IhpJgY
"Me dost thou bid to trust the treach'rous deep, 887Please respect copyright.PENANALTE8nHLLsK
The harlot smiles of her dissembling face, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA2WlOdvZrbF
And to her faith commit the Trojan race? 887Please respect copyright.PENANAxQN4Ekutrr
Shall I believe the Siren South again, 887Please respect copyright.PENANArJrPZRfT77
And, oft betray'd, not know the monster main?" 887Please respect copyright.PENANAwVlcnbrqJm
He said: his fasten'd hands the rudder keep, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAyIWOvsgOPK
And, fix'd on heav'n, his eyes repel invading sleep. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAZL2aZXDTcA
The god was wroth, and at his temples threw 887Please respect copyright.PENANA008j0YNbSE
A branch in Lethe dipp'd, and drunk with Stygian dew: 887Please respect copyright.PENANADz3izP09BM
The pilot, vanquish'd by the pow'r divine, 887Please respect copyright.PENANANmncFe3JGb
Soon clos'd his swimming eyes, and lay supine. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA1X3KQenO1E
Scarce were his limbs extended at their length, 887Please respect copyright.PENANALM3PtdiSTM
The god, insulting with superior strength, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAAxVjQZxBeq
Fell heavy on him, plung'd him in the sea, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAdAi4zuBHHJ
And, with the stern, the rudder tore away. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAYDQWsxsINJ
Headlong he fell, and, struggling in the main, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAJV6jcP0z8n
Cried out for helping hands, but cried in vain. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAnAGtR4RoEn
The victor daemon mounts obscure in air, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAiRf6M5fiss
While the ship sails without the pilot's care. 887Please respect copyright.PENANA3Qsre6PXZs
On Neptune's faith the floating fleet relies; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAYRdhxcPmyQ
But what the man forsook, the god supplies, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAqtzE6eG5I4
And o'er the dang'rous deep secure the navy flies; 887Please respect copyright.PENANAnUSGzB634m
Glides by the Sirens' cliffs, a shelfy coast, 887Please respect copyright.PENANASGVnEDAVba
Long infamous for ships and sailors lost, 887Please respect copyright.PENANA8njmGwbG2x
And white with bones. Th' impetuous ocean roars, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAtmhfcvGRFI
And rocks rebellow from the sounding shores. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAIZgbaOYHG2
The watchful hero felt the knocks, and found 887Please respect copyright.PENANAu6qAvLdBaM
The tossing vessel sail'd on shoaly ground. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAKoUvTfnOla
Sure of his pilot's loss, he takes himself 887Please respect copyright.PENANAsADDatOwOu
The helm, and steers aloof, and shuns the shelf. 887Please respect copyright.PENANAADD20xQmXL
Inly he griev'd, and, groaning from the breast, 887Please respect copyright.PENANADAQLwPGSvP
Deplor'd his death; and thus his pain express'd: 887Please respect copyright.PENANAtUmb6fB5BG
"For faith repos'd on seas, and on the flatt'ring sky, 887Please respect copyright.PENANAXyXnJlzrYs
Thy naked corpse is doom'd on shores unknown to lie." 887Please respect copyright.PENANANV3h52jvqi
