29358And, witless, hear''st not Zephyr blow with gentle, happy wind?
29358Answered her son, that swayeth still the stars that rule the earth:"O mother, whither call''st thou Fate?
29358Are these Ulysses''shifts?
29358Built I with hands, on Father- Gods with crying did I cry 680 To be away, a cruel heart, from thee laid down to die?
29358But Palinure with scarce- raised eyes e''en such an answer gave:"To gentle countenance of sea and quiet of the wave Deem''st thou me dull?
29358But ah, for death of such an one is Dian''s arrow due?"
29358But doubtful, say ye, were the fate of battle?
29358But if I would, who giveth leave, or takes on scornful keel 540 The hated thing?
29358But these your ships, what counsel or what lack Hath borne them to Ausonian strand o''er all the blue sea''s back?
29358But what shall be the end hereof?
29358But whither waver I so oft?
29358But who believed that Teucrian folk on any day might come Unto Hesperia''s shores?
29358But who may hoodwink loving eyes?
29358But whose will thee hath sent From high Olympus''house to bear such troubles, and so great?
29358But ye, my chosen, who is dight with me to break the wall, That we upon their quaking camp with point and edge may fall?
29358Deem ye that Danaan gifts May ever lack due share of guile?
29358Deem ye the foe hath fared away?
29358Deem''st thou dead ash or buried ghosts have heed of such- like things?
29358Did I set weapons in his hand, breed lust to breed debate?
29358Did I the Dardan lecher lead, who Sparta''s jewel reft?
29358Do him Æneas, Hector gone, father and uncle, stir, To valour of the ancient days, and great hearts''glorious gain?''
29358Doth Hector''s own Andromache yet serve in Pyrrhus''bed?''
29358Fabii, where drive ye me outworn?
29358Fabricius, poor and strong?
29358Father Anchises seeth and saith:''New land, and bear''st thou war?
29358Father, doth the counsel shift in thee?
29358Feel''st not another might than man''s, and Heaven upon his part?
29358For did he sigh the while I wept?
29358For justice shall I praise thee most, or battle''s mastery?
29358For what do I?
29358From us, your friends, why must ye flee away?
29358Had ye no might to wend as slaves?
29358Hath any fortune worthy thee come back again at last?
29358Hath he been vanquished unto tears, or pitied her that loved?
29358He brake all right, slew Polydore, and all the gold he got Perforce: O thou gold- hunger cursed, and whither driv''st thou not The hearts of men?
29358How many bodies of the slain laidst thou upon the field?
29358How may I by early perils fare?
29358How may I harden me''gainst this?
29358If Carthage braveries And lovely look of Libyan walls hold fast thy Tyrian eyes, Why wilt thou grudge the Teucrian men Ausonian dwelling- place?
29358If I am ready, Turnus dead, peace with these men to bind, Shall I not rather while thou liv''st cast all the war away?
29358Is death, then, such a misery?
29358Is it blind strayings o''er the sea that hither doth thee drive, Or bidding of the Gods?
29358Is this the coming back again?
29358Is this the good man''s guerdon then?
29358Lo, here is Eryx''brother- land; Acestes is our host; 630 What banneth us to found our walls and lawful cities gain?
29358My early glory.--Guest, to whom leav''st thou thy dying friend?
29358Nay, where is gone thine hallowed faith, thy kinsomeness of yore?
29358No less unto the wavy sea Menoetes, fearing hidden rocks, still turns away the bow: Gyas would shout him back again:"Menoetes, whither now?
29358Now Nisus saith:"Doth very God so set the heart on fire, Euryalus, or doth each man make God of his desire?
29358Now why the war that I forbade?
29358O Father, hast thou nought of ruth of her, forsooth, and thee?
29358O Father, is our dread of nothing worth When thou art thundering?
29358O Jupiter, was this thy will, that nations doomed to live In peace hereafter, on that day in such a broil should strive?
29358O children of Laomedon, the war then will ye gain?
29358O evil Love, where wilt thou not drive on a mortal breast?
29358O son, to me bringest thou back no more 490 Than this?
29358Of ship- host burnt on Eryx shore why should I tell the tale?
29358On whom of men, on whom of Gods, then laid I not the guilt?
29358Or choose them sons- in- law, or brides from mothers''bosoms tear?
29358Or doing what may I have might such toil to overbear?''
29358Or great Alcides?
29358Or house of Gracchus?
29358Or of the king of wind and storm, or wild and windy crowd Æolia bred, or Iris sent adown the space of cloud?
29358Or shall he cast himself amid the swords to die, And hasten down the way of wounds to lovely death anigh?
29358Or thee, Serranus, casting seed adown the furrows long?
29358Or what of Gods hath borne thee on unwitting to our shore?
29358Or, holding peace within their hands, lade ships with weapon- gear?
29358Our love, it hath not held thee back?
29358Paphus thou hast, Idalium, and high Cythera fair, Then why with cities big with war and hearts of warriors deal?
29358Phoebus''sister?
29358Right to give Turnus-- but for thee how was Juturna strong?-- The sword he lost?
29358Say, Muse, what God from Teucrian folk such sore destruction turned?
29358Shall I bemocked my early lovers try, And go Numidian wedlock now on bended knee to buy: I, who so often scorned to take their bridal- bearing hands?
29358Shall I give back, and shall this land see craven Turnus fled?
29358Shall I see never more Xanthus or Simoïs, like the streams where Hector dwelt of yore?
29358Shall fear forsooth forbid us rest in that Ausonian land?
29358Shall keels of mortal fashioning gain immortality?
29358Shall no walls more be called of Troy?
29358Shall this be right?
29358So much he spake, and went his way to meet the foeman''s shaft; But spake the other:"Bitter wretch, who took''st away my son, Why fright me now?
29358So wretchedly I rush to arms with all intent to die; For what availeth wisdom now, what hope in fate may lie?
29358The Fates forbid it me forsooth?
29358The sackless Harpies will ye drive from their own land away?
29358Thee, who hast wooed me for thy sire, my daughter for thy bride?
29358Then Turnus answered, with his eyes fixed on the awful maid:"O glory of Italian land, how shall the thanks be paid Worthy thy part?
29358Then brake the God on him:"Forsooth, tall Carthage wilt thou found, O lover, and a city fair raise up from out the ground?
29358Then called the helmsman Palinure from lofty deck on high:"Ah, wherefore doth such cloud of storm gird all the heavens about?
29358Then cries Iapis:"Loiter ye?
29358Then fearfully Æneas stayed, and drank the tumult in:"O tell me, Maiden, what is there?
29358Then spake Queen Juno, heavy wroth:"Why driv''st thou me to part My deep- set silence, and lay bare with words my grief of heart?
29358Then spake the Father, overcome by Love that ne''er hath waned:"Why fish thy reasons from the deep?
29358There in the open house they sit, and he himself begins:"O Dwellers in the House of Heaven, why backward thuswise wins Your purpose?
29358They break in on me, and he their fellow is, Ulysses, preacher of all guilt.--O Gods, will ye not pay The Greeks for all?
29358Thine hand that oft to Turnus''hand, thy kinsman, promise bore?
29358Thy mastering will I know it holdeth good, O Jove the great!--was this the gift thou gav''st for maidenhood?
29358To trust his walls and utmost point of war unto a boy?
29358Unto whom giv''st thou Iulus''life, Thy father''s, yea and mine withal, that once was called thy wife?''
29358Unto whom the Tuscan spake, when he Got sense again, and breathed the air, and o''er him heaven did see:"O bitter foe, why chidest thou?
29358Was it thy very death I wrought?
29358Was it to see thy brother''s end and most unhappy fate?
29358Was there no dead man''s place for you on that Sigean plain?
29358Was there no time for one last word amid my misery?
29358We!--or the one who thwart the Greeks the wretched Trojans dashed?
29358What God hath driven him to lie, what hardness of my might?
29358What God sent you to Italy?
29358What do I?
29358What doth he?
29358What earth hides thy body, mangled sore, And perished limbs?
29358What end of toil then giv''st thou, King of heaven?
29358What folk and from what home are ye?
29358What force to dare, what stroke to snatch away The youth?
29358What gift for Gods; what gin of war is he?''
29358What hath fouled in such an evil wise Thy cheerful face?
29358What hath yoked thy life to this wild shore?
29358What heal is left in aught that may befall?
29358What if a peace that shall endure, and wedlock surely bound, 99 We fashion?
29358What images of sin?
29358What joyful ages brought Thy days to birth?
29358What madness changeth me?
29358What man might hear it told Of Dolopes, or Myrmidons, or hard Ulysses''band, And keep the tears back?
29358What men among men are ye then?
29358What might have Trojan men to sin?
29358What of the boy Ascanius?
29358What one of all the Gods or men Æneas drave to go On warring ways, or bear himself as King Latinus''foe?
29358What other walls, what other town have ye a hope to find?
29358What praise of words is left to me to raise thee to the sky?
29358What saw I bitterer to be borne in all the city spilt?
29358What seek the souls, and why must some depart the river''s rim, While others with the sweep of oars the leaden waters skim?"
29358What the wail yon city casts abroad?"
29358What then is left of deed to do that yet I must abide?
29358What then?
29358What was the guilt of Lapithæ?
29358What will ye, Father Neptune, now?"
29358What winds, what fates gave thee the road to cross the ocean o''er?
29358What, saw they not the war- walls of Troy- town, The fashioning of Neptune''s hand, amid the flame sink down?
29358What, what will ye?"
29358Whence this so sudden clear Of weather?
29358Whence?
29358Where hurrieth he?
29358Where is the fierce heart?"
29358Where shall I seek thee, gathering up that tangle of the ways 390 Through the blind wood?"
29358Where shall I seek thee?
29358Where shall I turn so left alone?
29358Wherein hath Fortune worn thee so, That thou, midst sunless houses sad, confused lands, must go?"
29358While I, who go forth Queen of Gods, the very Highest''s bride And sister, must I wage a war for all these many years With one lone race?
29358Who drave away from Trojan keels so mighty great a flame?
29358Who had the might to deal thee this?
29358Who knoweth not Æneas''folk?
29358Whom first, whom last, O bitter Maid, didst thou overthrow with spear?
29358Whom fleest thou?
29358Whom fleest thou?
29358Whom unto thee when Troy yet was---- 340 The boy then, of his mother lost, hath he a thought of her?
29358Why arm they not?
29358Why bear our hands these useless spears, this steel not made for fight?
29358Why bide I till Pygmalion comes to lay my walls alow, Till taken by Getulian kings, Iarbas''slave I go?
29358Why doubt''st thou?
29358Why fleest thou not in haste away, while haste is yet to win?
29358Why gather not from all the town in chase?
29358Why give me everlasting life, and death- doom take away?
29358Why hide it now?
29358Why kept I not the faith of old to my Sychæus sworn?"
29358Why linger?
29358Why quake our limbs, yea e''en before they feel the trumpet''s gale?
29358Why ragest thou?
29358Why tell those deaths unspeakable, and many a tyrant''s deed?
29358Why was I not allowed to live without the bridal bed, 550 Sackless and free as beasts afield, with no woes wearièd?
29358Why, with hearts unruled, raise ye the strife so sore?
29358Wilt thou not first behold the place where worn by eld is he, Anchises, left?
29358Wilt thou not see if yet thy wife abide Creusa, or Ascanius yet?
29358Wilt thou not set thy speed aside, and''gainst me dare the fight On equal ground, and gird thyself for foot- fight face to face?
29358With all the emptiness of hope his headlong heart he fed:"Where fleest thou, Æneas, then?
29358Works Juno here, or Iris sent adown the cloudy way?
29358Yea, and what brought it all about that thus in arms they clashed, 90 Europe and Asia?
29358Yea, hast thou not within thy mind amidst whose bounds we are?
29358Yea, or ye, twin thunderbolts of war, Ye Scipios, bane of Libyan land?
29358ah me, where have I left thy face?
29358and hast thou hoped with lies to cover o''er Such wickedness, and silently to get thee from my shore?
29358and have I followed this o''er every land and sea?
29358and is he gone?
29358and is it peace or war?"
29358and is thy Mars indeed A dweller in the windy tongue and feet well learned in speed, 390 The same today as yesterday?
29358and shall I follow lone the joyous mariners?
29358and why hath Fate held back your doom till now?
29358and why with images and lies Dost thou beguile me?
29358and with what word may he be bold to win Peace of the Queen all mad with love?
29358by what craft shall I stay Thy light of life?
29358com''st thou a messenger 310 Alive indeed?
29358doth her own heart know the deed that all this wrath hath won?
29358fellows, from the lofty ships come ye but even now?''
29358forsooth What place, what land in all the earth but with our grief is stored?
29358from what shore com''st thou then, Long- looked- for Hector?
29358gave Troy so poor a flame To burn her men, that through the fire and through the swords ye came?
29358hadst thou the heart to leave me lone and spent?
29358hangs Turnus back again?
29358hath any God the power such things to do?
29358he cried,"what mighty grief stirs up the city so?
29358his eyes-- what were they moved?
29358hoping for what hope in Libya dost thou wear Thy days?
29358how cast myself in such a monster''s way?
29358is there left a soul that Juno fears Henceforth?
29358is this the promised throne?"
29358is this the triumph won?
29358lack we aught in might or muster- roll 230 To match them?
29358lives he and breathes he yet?
29358might I see thee not on such a peril sent?
29358must I wait till Turnus grows fain of the battle- play?
29358no shame, no pity do they raise?"
29358nor Dido doomed to die a bitter death?
29358nor right hand given in faith Awhile agone?
29358on every side they hedge the wall about Go we against them!--tarriest thou?
29358or if from thee the holy light is fled, Where then is Hector?''
29358or of nymphs whom shall I call thee now?
29358or vanquished men, to give their might increase?
29358or whither then is gone thy heed of me?
29358or who might trow Cassandra then?
29358or who would wish war against thee to hold, If only this may come to pass, and fate the deed may seal?
29358or will one suppliant hand gifts on mine altar lay?"
29358pass Cossus o''er?
29358seaward then, or Troyward shall we fall?"
29358tarrying for what hope among the enemy?
29358that at last, so many died away, Such toil of city, toil of men, we see thy face today, We so forewearied?
29358that men brake the plighted peace by theft?
29358there breaks withal a voice from out her breast:''What, war to pay for slaughtered neat, war for our heifers slain?
29358thy lordship and thy deeds hast thou forgotten quite?
29358was it right that mortal wound a God''s own flesh should wrong?
29358we it was who strove to wrack the fainting Trojan weal?
29358what abyss of earth is deep enough to hide The wretched man?
29358what country''s soil may bear Such savage ways?
29358what crime wrought Calydon?
29358what deed is left thine hand?
29358what evil heart hast thou, With weapons thus to gird thyself, or whither wilt thou now?
29358what folly shifts my mind?
29358what hap hath caught thee up from such a man downcast?
29358what is this that rolleth on, this misty, mirky ball?
29358what madness hither sped?
29358what man shall I come back again?
29358what mean these hurts thou showest to mine eyes?''
29358what mighty ones gave such an one today?
29358what skills it man to trust in Gods compelled to good?
29358what sloth is this delayeth so your ways?
29358what stronghold keep we yet?''
29358what wise shall he begin?
29358what wouldst thou have them be?
29358whence will he That we should seek us aid of toil; where turn to o''er the sea?
29358where is thy fame sown broad Through all Trinacria, where the spoils hung up beneath thy roof?"
29358where is thy trust in me, I prithee, O my God and Love?
29358where to go?
29358where wends our contest now?
29358wherefore then is hand to hand not given And we to give and take in words that come from earth and heaven?"
29358wherein our home set forth?
29358whither?
29358who driveth thee from these embraces fain?"
29358who egged on these or those To fear or fight, or drave them on with edge of sword to close?
29358who knoweth not Troy- town, The valour, and the men, and all the flame of such a war?
29358why hold me back lest greater evil be?
29358why leave thy plighted bride?
29358why run ye not the ships down from their standing- place?
29358why slayest thou with words?
29358why this flight?
29358why thus afoot, and why in weapons do ye wend, And whither go ye?"
29358why tread I longer ways 480 Of speech, and stay the rising South with words that I would tell?''
29358would''st have me trow in such a monster''s truth?
29358Æneas calls me only of the peers?
29358Æneas cried:"where hurriest thou again?
29358Æneas wondered at the press, and moved thereby he spoke:"Say, Maid, what means this river- side, and gathering of the folk?
22456How stands the state, O Panthus? 22456 ''Ah, whither hurriest thou?'' 22456 ''Goddess- born, canst thou sleep on in such danger? 22456 ''How, O Turnus, can thine own sister help thee now? 22456 ''If this,''cries Nisus,''is the reward of defeat, and thy pity is stirred for the fallen, what fit recompense wilt thou give to Nisus? 22456 ''Lingerest thou to vow and pray,''she cries,''Aeneas of Troy? 22456 ''Take you not shame to be again held leaguered in your ramparts, O Phrygians twice taken, and to make walls your fence from death? 22456 ''Was it this, mine own? 22456 ''Was life''s hold on me so sweet, O my son, that I let him I bore receive the hostile stroke in my room? 22456 ''What guerdon shall I deem may be given you, O men, what recompense for these noble deeds? 22456 ''What now shall good Aeneas give thee, what, O poor boy, for this thy praise, for guerdon of a nature so noble? 22456 ''What shapes of crime are here? 22456 ''What strange madness is this?'' 22456 ''What terror, what utter cowardice hath fallen on your spirits, O never to be stung to shame, O slack alway? 22456 ''What yet shall be the end, O wife? 22456 ''Whither wanderest thou away? 22456 ''Who will be with me, my men, to be first on the foe? 22456 --''O father, must we think that any souls travel hence into upper air, and return again to bodily fetters? 22456 Achates first accosts Aeneas:''Goddess- born, what purpose now rises in thy spirit? 22456 Aeneas rushes up, drawing his sword from the scabbard, and thus above him:''Where now is gallant Mezentius and all his fierce spirit?'' 22456 Ah me, was I cause of thy death? 22456 Ah, and who is he apart, marked out with sprays of olive, offering sacrifice? 22456 Alas, what can he do? 22456 Alas, what shall he do? 22456 Am I, thy father, saved by these wounds of thine, and living by thy death? 22456 And Mnestheus:''Whither next, whither press you in flight? 22456 And Turnus pursuing and aiming as he ran, thus upbraids him in triumph:''Didst thou hope, madman, thou mightest escape our hands?'' 22456 And do we yet hesitate to give valour scope in deeds, or shrink in fear from setting foot on Ausonian land? 22456 And he:''Why seek to frighten me, fierce man, now my son is gone? 22456 And how should they let me, if I would? 22456 And then? 22456 And unfold the truth to this my question: wherefore have they reared this vast size of horse? 22456 Are we eating our tables too?_ cries Iülus jesting, and stops. 22456 Are we going to meet them? 22456 Art thou that Aeneas whom Venus the bountiful bore to Dardanian Anchises by the wave of Phrygian Simoïs? 22456 As she saw him glittering in arms and idly exultant:''Why,''she cries,''wanderest thou away? 22456 Believe you the foe is gone? 22456 But Aeneas presses on, brandishing his vast tree- like spear, and fiercely speaks thus:''What more delay is there[ 889- 924]now? 22456 But good Aeneas, his head bared, kept stretching his unarmed hand and calling loudly to his men:''Whither run you? 22456 But if so many oracles guided them, given by god and ghost, why may aught now reverse thine ordinance or write destiny anew? 22456 But to thee how did winds, how fates give passage? 22456 But what shall be the end? 22456 But when I assail a third spearshaft with a stronger effort, pulling with knees pressed against the sand; shall I speak or be silent? 22456 But who hath bidden thee descend from heaven to bear this sore travail? 22456 But who was to believe that Teucrians should come to Hesperian shores? 22456 But who, I pray, are you, or from what coasts come, or whither hold you your way?'' 22456 But why, unhappy, do I delay the Trojan arms? 22456 But you, my chosen, who of you makes ready to breach their palisade at the sword''s point, and join my attack on their fluttered camp? 22456 But, I think, my deity lies at last outwearied, or my hatred sleeps and is satisfied? 22456 By what means may he essay entrance? 22456 Careless, O winds, of my deity, dare you confound sky and earth, and raise so huge a coil? 22456 Caïcus raises a cry from the mound in front:''What mass of misty gloom, O citizens, is rolling hitherward? 22456 Comest thou driven on ocean wanderings, or by promptings from heaven? 22456 Could I not have riven his body in sunder and strewn it on the waves? 22456 Could Pallas lay the Argive fleet in ashes, and sink the Argives in the sea, for one man''s guilt, mad Oïlean Ajax? 22456 Could they be ensnared when taken? 22456 Could they perish on the Sigean[ 295- 326]plains? 22456 Couldst thou, the latest solace of mine age, leave me alone so cruelly? 22456 Deemest thou the ashes care for that, or the ghost within the tomb? 22456 Did the fires of Troy consume her people? 22456 Did these very hands build it, did my voice call on our father''s gods, that with thee lying thus I should be away as one without pity? 22456 Did we urge him to quit the camp or entrust his life to the winds? 22456 Didst thou disdain a sister''s company in death? 22456 Dost thou, Hector''s Andromache, keep bonds of marriage with Pyrrhus?
22456Even so she begins, and thus revolves with her heart alone:''See, what do I?
22456Fliest thou from me?
22456Fliest thou not hence headlong, while headlong flight is yet possible?
22456For what do I wait?
22456For what further outrage do I wait?
22456For what had counsel or chance yet to give?
22456For why do I conceal it?
22456From whom fliest thou?
22456From whom fliest thou?
22456Go,"he continues,"happy in thy son''s affection: why do I run on further, and delay the rising winds in talk?"
22456Hath any man or god constrained Aeneas to court war or make armed attack on King Latinus?
22456Hath he broken into tears, or had pity on his lover?
22456Have you no pity, no shame, cowards, for your unhappy country, for your ancient gods, for great Aeneas?''
22456He stopped and cried weeping,''What land is left, Achates, what tract on earth that is not full of our agony?
22456He yonder, seest thou?
22456Here are our brother Eryx''borders, and Acestes''welcome: who denies us to cast up walls and give our citizens a city?
22456How leavest thou me to die, O my guest?
22456How shall I begin my desolate moan?
22456How shall I trust Aeneas to deceitful breezes, and the placid treachery of sky that hath so often deceived me?''
22456I forbade Italy to join battle with the Teucrians; why this quarrel in face of my injunction?
22456If such glories kindle him in nowise, and he take no trouble for his own honour, does a father grudge his Ascanius the towers of Rome?
22456If thy Phoenician eyes are stayed on Carthage towers and thy Libyan city, what wrong is it, I pray, that we Trojans find our rest on Ausonian land?
22456Is Death all so bitter?
22456Is anger so fierce in celestial spirits?
22456Is it granted, O my son, to gaze on thy face and hear and answer in familiar tones?
22456Is it not thus the Phrygian herdsman wound his way to Lacedaemon, and carried Leda''s Helen to the Trojan towns?
22456Is it peace or arms you carry hither?''
22456Is it thus thou dost restore our throne?''
22456Is it we who would overthrow the tottering state of Phrygia?
22456Is this all of what thou wert that returns to me, O my son?
22456Is this his repayment for my maidenhood?
22456Is this the reward of goodness?
22456Knowest thou not the strength is another''s and the gods are changed?
22456Let us exchange shields, and accoutre ourselves in Grecian suits; whether craft or courage, who will ask of an enemy?
22456Lo, the deep shuts us in with vast sea barrier; even now land fails our flight; shall we make ocean or Troy our goal?''
22456Long they ran on in mutual change of talk; of what lifeless comrade spoke the soothsayer, of what body for burial?
22456Markest thou what sentry is seated in[ 575- 609]the doorway?
22456May hulls have the right of immortality that were fashioned by mortal hand?
22456Moved with marvel at the confused throng:''Say, O maiden,''cries Aeneas,''what means this flocking to the river?
22456Must I wait forsooth till Turnus please to stoop to combat, and choose again to face his conqueror?
22456Nisus cries:''Lend the gods this fervour to the soul, Euryalus?
22456Now so many woes are spent, and the same fortune still pursues them; Lord and King, what limit dost thou set to their agony?
22456O citizens?
22456Or will you even find rest here with me and share my kingdom?
22456Our love holds thee not, nor the hand thou once gavest, nor the bitter death that is left for Dido''s portion?
22456Palinurus, master of the fleet, cries from the high stern:''Alas, why have these heavy storm- clouds girt the sky?
22456Paphos is thine and Idalium, thine high Cythera; why meddlest thou with fierce spirits and a city big with war?
22456Plead you for peace to the lifeless bodies that the battle- lot hath slain?
22456See, is this his promise- keeping?''
22456Seest thou how the twin plumes straighten on his crest, and his father''s own emblazonment already marks him for upper air?
22456Shall I again make trial of mine old wooers that will scorn me?
22456Shall I have faith in this perilous thing?
22456Shall I look again on the camp or walls of Laurentum?
22456Shall I make mention of the realm of Neoptolemus, and Idomeneus''household gods overthrown?
22456Shall my hand not refute Drances''jeers?
22456Shall she see her spousal and her home, her parents and children, attended by a crowd of Trojan women and Phrygians to serve her?
22456Shall she verily see Sparta and her native Mycenae unscathed, and depart a queen and triumphant?
22456Shall thy righteousness first wake my wonder, or thy toils in war?
22456Shalt thou die, and by Diana''s weapons?''
22456Shalt thou without burial behold the Stygian waters and the awful river of the Furies?
22456She swoons away, and hardly at last speaks after long interval:"Comest thou then a real face, a real messenger to me, goddess- born?
22456Straightway[ 265- 299]he breaks in:''Layest thou now the foundations of tall Carthage, and buildest up a fair city in dalliance?
22456The destruction of their households, this was the one thing yet lacking; shall I suffer it?
22456Then Queen Juno, swift and passionate:''Why forcest thou me to break long silence and proclaim my hidden pain?
22456Then her lord speaks, enchained by Love the immortal:''Why these far- fetched pleas?
22456Then indeed Turnus, when he believed Aeneas turned and fled from him, and his spirit madly drank in the illusive hope:''Whither fliest thou, Aeneas?
22456Then shall I follow the Ilian fleets and the uttermost bidding of the Teucrians?
22456Then she thus addressed me, and with this speech allayed my distresses:"What help is there in this mad passion of grief, sweet my husband?
22456Then she thus[ 228- 261]accosts her amazed lord:''Wakest thou, seed of gods, Aeneas?
22456Thereto the Tyrrhenian, as he came to himself and gazing up drank the air of heaven:''Bitter foe, why these taunts and menaces of death?
22456This only was left in his strait, to kindle them to valour, now by entreaties, now by taunts:''Whither flee you, comrades?
22456This thou didst promise: why, O father, is thy decree reversed?
22456Thoughtest thou my feet, O father, could retire and abandon thee?
22456Thus Phoebus; and mingled outcries of great gladness uprose; all ask, what is that city?
22456Thus at last she opens out upon Aeneas:''And thou didst hope, traitor, to mask the crime, and slip away in silence from my land?
22456Thus he ended, and the soothsayer thus began:''Whence, O Palinurus, this fierce longing of thine?
22456To this Turnus, with eyes fixed on the terrible maiden:''O maiden flower of Italy, how may I essay to express, how to prove my gratitude?
22456To what god is power so great given?
22456To what is little Iülus and thy father, to what am I left who once was called thy wife?"
22456To whom Juno beseechingly:''Why, fair my lord, vexest thou one sick at heart and trembling at thy bitter words?
22456To whom Palinurus, scarcely lifting his eyes, returns:''Wouldst thou have me ignorant what the calm face of the brine means, and the waves at rest?
22456Troy blazed in fire?
22456Was it in my guidance the[ 92- 125]adulterous Dardanian broke into Sparta?
22456Was it this thy pyre, ah me, this thine altar fires meant?
22456Was it well that a deity should be sullied by a mortal''s wound?
22456Was it well, O God, that nations destined to everlasting peace should clash in so vast a shock?
22456Was my summons a snare?
22456Were it not better to have[ 59- 91]clung to the last ashes of their country, and the ground where once was Troy?
22456What art of mine can lengthen out thy day?
22456What do I talk?
22456What do I?
22456What god, O Muses, guarded the Trojans from the rage of the fire?
22456What god, what madness, hath driven you to Italy?
22456What god, what potent cruelty of ours, hath driven him on his hurt?
22456What guest unknown is this who hath entered our dwelling?
22456What happy ages bore thee?
22456What hath availed me Syrtes or Scylla, what desolate Charybdis?
22456What indignity hath marred thy serene visage?
22456What is this strife that so spreads and swells?
22456What is your kin, whence your habitation?
22456What man or god did I spare in frantic reproaches?
22456What of that array of men who followed me to arms?
22456What race of men, what land how barbarous soever, allows such a custom for its own?
22456What shall he do?
22456What terror hath bidden one or another run after arms and tempt the sword?
22456What then were thy thoughts, O Dido, as thou sawest it?
22456Whence is this sudden sheen of weather?
22456Where is Juno in this, or Iris sped down the clouds?
22456Where is thy plighted faith?
22456Where now prithee is divine Eryx, thy master of fruitless fame?
22456Where thine ancient care for thy people, and the hand Turnus thy kinsman hath so often clasped?
22456Where, where shall I begin?
22456Whither am I borne?
22456Whither does he run?
22456Whither shall I follow?
22456Whither whirl you me all breathless, O Fabii?
22456Whither, O goddess, is thy trust in me gone?
22456Who can be ignorant of the race of Aeneas''people, who of Troy town and her men and deeds, or of the great war''s consuming fire?
22456Who may unfold in speech that night''s horror and death- agony, or measure its woes in weeping?
22456Who might leave thee, lordly Cato, or thee, Cossus, to silence?
22456Whom first, whom last, fierce maiden, does thy dart strike down?
22456Whom follow[ 88- 121]we?
22456Why again and again hurlest thou these unhappy citizens on peril so evident, O source and spring of Latium''s woes?
22456Why do I linger?
22456Why does a shudder seize our limbs before the trumpet sound?
22456Why fall I away again and again?
22456Why hesitate?
22456Why is it forbidden to clasp hand in hand, to hear and utter true speech?''
22456Why linger?
22456Why mockest thou thy son so often in feigned likeness?
22456Why ravest thou?
22456Why should I recall the fleets burned on the coast of Eryx?
22456Why should I relate the horrible murders, the savage deeds of the monarch?
22456Why speak of the war gathering from Tyre, and thy brother''s menaces?
22456Why tell of the Lapithae, of Ixion and Pirithoüs?
22456Why wear we steel?
22456Why, were thy quest not of alien fields and unknown dwellings, did thine ancient Troy remain, should Troy be sought in voyages over tossing seas?
22456Will they not issue in armed pursuit from all the city, and some launch ships from the dockyards?
22456Will thy bravery ever be in that windy tongue and those timorous feet of thine?
22456Wilt thou never then let our leaguer be raised?
22456Wilt thou see also the Tarquin kings, and the haughty soul of Brutus the Avenger, and the fasces regained?
22456With what device or in what hope hangest thou chill in cloudland?
22456Yet hath the child affection for his lost mother?
22456[ 369- 400]Hath our weeping cost him a sigh, or a lowered glance?
22456[ 93- 126]Thus her son in answer, who wheels the starry worlds:''O mother, whither callest thou fate?
22456after such an husband, what fate receives thy fall?
22456ah hapless race, for what destruction does Fortune hold thee back?
22456and Fabricius potent in poverty, or[ 844- 875]thee, Serranus, sowing in the furrow?
22456and Priam have fallen under the sword?
22456and because fate forbids me?
22456and fell so unnatural words from a parent''s lips?
22456and hast thou no compassion on[ 361- 392]thy daughter and on thyself?
22456and may Aeneas traverse perils secure in insecurity?
22456and slain with the sword his comrades and his dear Ascanius, and served him for the banquet at his father''s table?
22456and stoop to sue for a Numidian marriage among those whom already over and over I have disdained for husbands?
22456are we unequal in numbers or bravery?
22456art thou ignorant, ah me, even in ruin, and knowest not yet the forsworn race of Laomedon?
22456because it is good to think they were once raised up by my[ 539- 570]succour, or the grace of mine old kindness is fresh in their remembrance?
22456by what passage hurl the imprisoned Trojans from the rampart and fling them on the plain?
22456can I contend with this ominous thing?
22456cries Aeneas;''whither so fast away?
22456declare, O maiden; or what the punishment that pursues them, and all this upsurging wail?''
22456for what are these idle weapons in our hands?
22456for what do I, or what fortune yet gives promise of safety?
22456from beneath the mound is heard a pitiable moan, and a voice is uttered to my ears:"Woe''s me, why rendest thou me, Aeneas?
22456from what borders comest thou, Hector our desire?
22456he cried,"what land now, what seas may receive me?
22456how his Trojans?
22456how long is it seemly to keep me?
22456how may vows or shrines help her madness?
22456how venture to smooth the tale to the frenzied queen?
22456how, that they choose their brides and tear plighted bosom from bosom?
22456if I am ready to take them into alliance after Turnus''destruction, why do I not rather bar the strife while he lives?
22456is he roused to the valour of old and the spirit of manhood by his father Aeneas, by his uncle Hector?"
22456is it this I have followed by land and sea?
22456is it thus we know Ulysses?
22456is this my strong assurance?
22456lingerest thou?
22456livest thou?
22456lord Neptune, what wilt thou?''
22456no compassion on her mother, whom with the first northern wind the treacherous rover will abandon, steering to sea with his maiden prize?
22456nor does it cross thy mind whose are these fields about thy dwelling?
22456nor hearest the breezes blowing fair?
22456nor when sent into such danger was one last word of thee allowed thine unhappy mother?
22456of what are the souls so fain?
22456on what ground have I left thee?
22456or did I send the shafts of passion that kindled war?
22456or do we shudder vainly when our father hurls the thunderbolt, and do blind fires in the clouds and idle rumblings appal our soul?
22456or does fatal passion become a proper god to each?
22456or he who brought the Achaeans down on the hapless Trojans?
22456or how may earth ever yawn for me deep enough?
22456or if sweet light is fled, ah, where is Hector?"
22456or in what guidance may I overcome these sore labours?"
22456or of the Locrians who dwell on the Libyan beach?
22456or plunge forth girt with all my Tyrian train?
22456or shall he rush on his doom amid their swords, and find in their wounds a speedy and glorious death?
22456or take the odious woman on their haughty ships?
22456or that the lost sword-- for what without thee could Juturna avail?--should be restored to Turnus and swell the force of the vanquished?
22456or think you any Grecian gift is free of treachery?
22456or what crueller sight met me in our city''s overthrow?
22456or what difference makes these retire from the banks, those go with sweeping oars over the leaden waterways?''
22456or what dost thou seek for these of thine?
22456or what fortune keeps thee from rest, that thou shouldst draw nigh these sad sunless dwellings, this disordered land?''
22456or what is the last doom that yet awaits my misery?
22456or what is this cry that fleets so loud from the distant town?''
22456or what land now holds thy mangled corpse, thy body torn limb from limb?
22456or what more is there if I break not under this?
22456or what their aim?
22456or what worthier fortune revisits thee?
22456or where am I?
22456or where shall I follow, again unwinding all the entanglement of the treacherous woodland way?''
22456or whither do you steer?
22456or whither dost thou bid us go, where fix our seat?
22456or whither dost thou run?
22456or whither hold you your way?''
22456or whither is thy care for us fled?
22456or who withholds thee from our embrace?''
22456or whom might Cassandra then move by prophecy?
22456or whose divinity landed thee all unwitting on our coasts?
22456or why all this contest now?
22456or why discern I these wounds?"
22456or why, Turnus, dost thou yet shrink away?
22456others plunder and harry the burning citadel; are you but now on your march from the tall ships?"
22456shall I accompany the triumphant sailors, a lonely fugitive?
22456shall I nowhere see a Xanthus and a Simoïs, the rivers of Hector?
22456shall I send thee alone into so great perils?
22456shall I turn my back, and this land see Turnus a fugitive?
22456shall an alien make mock of our realm?
22456shall there never be a Trojan town to tell of?
22456shall we set one life in the breach for so many such as these?
22456she cries,''shall he go?
22456sister of Phoebus perchance, or one of the nymphs''blood?
22456so hardly severed from Sidon city, shall I again drive them seaward, and bid them spread their sails to the tempest?
22456son, or other of his children''s princely race?
22456that Trojans subjugate and plunder fields not their own?
22456that their gestures plead for peace, and their ships are lined with arms?
22456the shore of Dardania so often soaked with blood?
22456thou wilt see thy son cruelly slain; is this our triumphal return awaited?
22456till Pygmalion overthrow his sister''s city, or Gaetulian Iarbas lead me to captivity?
22456to give the issue of war and the charge of his ramparts to a child?
22456to stir the loyalty of Tyrrhenia or throw peaceful nations into tumult?
22456was it that thou mightest see thy hapless brother cruelly slain?
22456we?
22456what agony shakes the city?
22456what flight is this, or in what guise do I return?
22456what good is his gift of life for ever?
22456what height of madness hath seized thy mind?
22456what mad change is on my purpose?
22456what madness bends my purpose?
22456what mighty parents gave thy virtue birth?
22456what of the boy Ascanius?
22456what other walls, what farther city have you yet?
22456what prologue shall he find?
22456what propitiation, or what engine of war is this?"
22456what remains at the last?
22456what shape guards the threshold?
22456what stronghold are we to occupy?"
22456what the cause or whereof the need that hath borne you over all these blue waterways to the Ausonian shore?
22456what violence lands thee on this monstrous coast?
22456whence came I?
22456where thy renown over all Sicily, and those spoils hanging in thine house?''
22456whether, torn by fate from her unhappy husband, she stood still, or did she mistake the way, or sink down outwearied?
22456whither calls Phoebus our wandering, and bids us return?
22456who is claimed of Apollo?
22456who is their counsellor?
22456who made Europe and Asia bristle up in arms, and whose theft shattered the alliance?
22456who repelled the fierce flame from their ships?
22456who the Gracchan family, or these two sons of the Scipios, a double thunderbolt of war, Libya''s bale?
22456who was allowed to use thee thus?
22456whom did I fear[ 604- 635]with my death upon me?
22456why have I forfeited a mortal''s lot?
22456why on the march, or how are you in arms?
22456why stand you?''
22456why the king of storms, and the raging winds roused from Aeolia, or Iris driven down the clouds?
22456why this their strange sad longing for the light?''
22456will aught of mine be sweet to me without thee, my brother?
22456with what device or in what hope loiters he among a hostile race, and casts not a glance on his Ausonian children and the fields of Lavinium?
22456with what force, what arms dare his rescue?
18466''And point to far Italia,--One alone, Celaeno, sings of famine foul and dread, A nameless prodigy, a plague unknown,-- What perils first to shun? 18466 ''E''en on his threshold, when the adulterer lay In wait for Asia''s conqueror?
18466''Real, then, real is thy face, and true Thy tidings? 18466 ''Still grieves he for his mother?
18466''What boots this idle passion? 18466 ''What,_ I_ to leave thee helpless, and to flee?
18466''Wilt thou not see, if yet thy sire survive, Worn out with age, amid the war''s alarms? 18466 Ah, whither,"cried AEneas,"wilt thou fly?
18466And harass peaceful nations? 18466 And rob their maidens of the love they vow, And lift, and burn and ravage as they list, Then plead for peace, with arms upon the prow?
18466Art thou, then, come at last? 18466 Ay, who had won, had Chance not interfered, And baffled me, like Salius?
18466But see, who, crowned with olive wreath, doth bring The sacred vessels? 18466 Cowards, why faint ye, Tuscans but in name?
18466Dear son, was life so tempting to the sire, To let thee face the foemen in my room, Whom I begot? 18466 Entellus, once our bravest, but in vain, Can''st_ thou_ sit tamely, with the field unfought, And see this braggart glory in his gain?
18466Fool,he cries,"Why rush to death, and dare a deed too great?
18466Gallants,he hails them from a mound afar,"What drove you hither by strange ways to steer?
18466Great Sire, was I so guilty in thy sight, To make thee deem such punishment my due? 18466 Heaven''s great inhabitants, what change hath brewed Rebellious thoughts, my purpose thus to mar?
18466I beaten? 18466 If thee, Tyre- born, a Libyan town detain, What grudge to Troy Ausonia''s land denies?
18466Me, me would Nisus from such deeds debar? 18466 O Iris, Heaven''s fair glory, who hath sent Thee hither?
18466O Turnus, cause of all our ills to- day, Why make the land these miseries endure? 18466 O maid,"he asks,"what crimes are theirs?
18466Oh, who hath tears to match our grief withal? 18466 Shalt thou, great Cato, unextolled remain?
18466Shalt_ thou_ go hence, and with the loved one''s spoils? 18466 Shame, will ye risk, Rutulians, for his host The life of one?
18466Son of a goddess, if none risks the fray, How long shall Dares guerdonless remain? 18466 Straight rose a joyous uproar; each in turn Ask what the walls that Phoebus hath designed?
18466Think''st thou the Stygian waters to explore Unburied, and the Furies''flood to see, And reach unbidden yon relentless shore? 18466 Thou-- is it thou, Euryalus, my own?
18466To die-- and unavenged? 18466 Was I the robber, who the war begun, Whose theft in arms two continents arrayed, When Europe clashed with Asia?
18466What am I doing? 18466 What can I do?
18466What dreams, dear Anna, fill me with alarms; What stranger guest is this? 18466 What first?
18466What gifts can match such valour? 18466 What madness this, poor women?"
18466What mischief, Latins, hath your minds misled, To shun our friendship in the hour of need, And rush to arms? 18466 What pride of birth possessed you, Earth and air Without my leave to mingle in affray, And raise such hubbub in my realm?
18466What, fly alone, and join their shouting crew? 18466 What, shall I see our houses wrapt in flame,-- Last wrong of all-- and coward- like, stand by, Nor make this arm put Drances''taunts to shame?
18466What, then,she sadly ponders,"shall I do?
18466What, thou-- wilt thou build Carthage?
18466Where shall I follow thee? 18466 Whither from thy course so wide?
18466Who knows not Troy, th''AEneian house of fame, The deeds and doers, and the war''s renown That fired the world? 18466 Whom then did I upbraid not, wild with woe, Of gods or men?
18466Why fail we on the threshold, faint with fears, And sick knees tremble ere the trumpets bray? 18466 Why now those ancient Lapithae recall, Ixion and Pirithous?
18466Why stay''st thou, Turnus? 18466 Would''st thou behold the Tarquins?
18466Wretch,cries Mezentius,"having robbed my son, Why scare me now?
18466_ Me_ dost thou fly? 18466 _ This_ for my robbed virginity?
18466''Panthus,''I cry,''how fares the fight?
18466Again Laurentum''s city shall I view?
18466Ah, why Did immortality the Sire bestow, And grudge a mortal''s privilege-- to die?
18466Ah, why So cruel?
18466Am I to send thee singly to thy fate?
18466And bring ye peace or war?"
18466And doubt we then to celebrate so far Our prowess, and shall fear Ausonian fields debar?
18466And if thy wife Creusa be alive, And young Ascanius?
18466And is it then so terrible to die?
18466And shall AEneas sail the uncertain main, Himself of safety certain, and his band?
18466And unoffending Harpies would ye chase Forth from their old, hereditary reign?
18466And whither art thou hurrying?
18466Art thou, then, that AEneas, whom of yore Venus on Simois''banks to old Anchises bore?
18466Awe- struck, AEneas would the cause enquire: What streams are yonder?
18466But Dido-- who can cheat a lover''s care?
18466But I, who walk the Queen of Heaven confessed, Jove''s sister- spouse, shall I forevermore With one poor tribe keep warring without rest?
18466But enough, ye say, Once to have fallen?
18466But thou, make answer, and in turn explain What brought thee, living, to these realms of shade?
18466But what power on high Hath willed thee, sent from the Olympian reign, Such toils to suffer, and such tasks to try?
18466But who are ye, pray answer?
18466But why the tale prolong?
18466But ye, my chosen, who with me will scale Yon wall, and storm their trembling camp?
18466By force of arms how dare His friend to rescue?
18466By heaven''s command, or wandering o''er the main, Com''st thou to view these shores, this sunless, sad domain?"
18466By the tempest tost, or blown At random, needful of what help and how Came ye to Latin shores the dark- blue deep to plough?
18466C."Is yours no pity, sluggard souls?
18466Cam''st thou, forsooth, to see thy wretched brother die?
18466Can I dare To face this fiend?
18466Can neither love, nor this my plighted hand, Nor dying Dido keep thee?
18466Cossus?
18466Could Pallas burn the Grecian fleet, and drown Their crews, for one man''s crime, Oileus''frenzied son?
18466Could e''er A parent speak of such a crime to me?
18466Could''st thou leave me here alone, Nor let thy mother bid a last good- bye?
18466Did I with lust the fatal strife sustain, And fan the feud, and lend the Dardans aid?
18466Did ever God such privilege attain?
18466Did ever crime of theirs the Dardans''meed require?
18466Do I care?
18466Dost thou thy faith remove, And cease to trust in Vulcan?
18466Dotard, why delay?
18466Doth the name Of sire or uncle make his young heart glow For deeds of valour and ancestral fame?''
18466Dream they here To find such Danaan striplings, weak as they Whom Hector baffled till the tenth long year?
18466Dreams he in his pride To end the war, and drive us from the land?
18466Feel''st not that more than mortal is his aid?
18466For me this fraud?
18466For this did I prepare That pyre, those flames and altars?
18466Forth springs AEneas, glorying in his prize, And plucks the glittering falchion from his thigh,"Where now is fierce Mezentius?
18466From the stern loud cries The pilot Palinurus:"Whence and why This cloudy rack that gathers o''er the skies?
18466Grant that I wished it, of these lordings who Would take me, humbled and a thing of scorn?
18466Grant that it had been, whom should Dido dread, What fear had death for me, self- destined to be dead?
18466Has filial love, Thrice welcome, braved the perils of the way?
18466Hath he taught Thine arm its vaunted cleverness for naught?
18466Have foes and fire found passage for the slain?
18466Have the sword And flames of Troy avenged me but in vain?
18466He, an alien, flout my sway?
18466Hector''s Andromache, art thou the mate Of Pyrrhus?''
18466Hermes cried,"And stay to beautify thy lady''s town, And dote on Tyrian realms, and disregard thine own?
18466His son?
18466How tost with perils do I greet thee?
18466I leave thee, cheated of my care, to fall, The daughter''s lover, and the father''s friend?
18466I the one, Who led the Dardan leman on his raid, To storm the chamber of the Spartan maid?
18466If dead, then where is Hector?''
18466If, maugre Turnus slain, I deign to welcome as a friend his foe, Why not, while Turnus lives, the needless strife forego?
18466Immortal I?
18466In number, strength and show Do we not match them?
18466Is Dido blind, if Trojans are untrue?
18466Is theirs no rest from leaguer-- not a day?
18466Is this the triumph?
18466Is this then all of what was once my child?
18466Is thy sacred faith forsworn?
18466Jove, shall he escape me?
18466Know''st thou not yet, O lost one and forlorn, Troy''s perjured race still shows Laomedon forsworn?
18466Let the bark break, with such a haven here What harm, if once upon the shore we stand?"
18466Liv''st thou, child of heavenly seed?
18466Loudly he shrills in anger to his train,"Who first with me will at the foemen-- who?
18466Moved he those eyes?
18466Must Cynthia waste her shafts on worthless knaves like thee?"
18466Must I wait all day?
18466Must captives be twice captured?
18466Must thou fly, When North- winds howl, and wintry waves are high?
18466Must we, poor souls, that Turnus may obtain A royal bride, like carrion strew the plain, Unwept, unburied?
18466Near lay the rock, the goal was close in sight, When Gyas, first o''er half a length of tide Shouts to his helmsman:"Whither to the right?
18466Nor care sweet sons, fair Venus''gifts to know?
18466O say, What manner of mankind is here?
18466O tell How can in heavenly minds such fierce resentment dwell?
18466O when, great Monarch, shall their toil be o''er?
18466O, what madness turns my brain?
18466O, whither wilt thou go?
18466Of Locrians, cast upon the Libyan plain?
18466Of what avail are temples, vows, and prayers, To quell a raging passion?
18466Once more Anchises bids us cross the main And seek Ortygia, and the god constrain By prayer to pardon and advise, what end Of evils to expect?
18466Or give-- for thine was all Juturna''s might-- Lost Turnus back his sword, and renovate the fight?
18466Or launch, and chase them with my Tyrian train Scarce torn from Tyre?
18466Or make we gods of but a wild desire?
18466Or poor Idomeneus, expelled his state?
18466Or thee, Serranus, scattering the seed?
18466Ours shalt thou be; but mark, and tell me now, What means this monster, for what use designed?
18466Peace ask ye for the dead, The War- God''s prey, whom folly doomed to bleed?
18466Pensive he stood, and with a rising tear,"What lands, Achates, on the earth, but know Our labours?
18466Poor Dido, hath thy folly found its prey?
18466Reared I this pyre, did I the gods invoke To leave thee thus companionless, to die?
18466Saw they not Troy, which Neptune reared of old, Sink down in ruin, as the flames uprolled?
18466Say whither wending?
18466Say, what bitter grief doth move Thy soul to rage untamed?
18466Seaward or Troyward-- whither shall we flee?"
18466See''st thou what sentinel Sits in the porch?
18466Shall Turnus run, and Latins see him fly?
18466Shall he face them there, And rush upon the foemen''s swords, to die, And welcome wounds that win a death so fair?
18466Shall he mock My queenship?
18466Shall the Trojans claim The realm, and bastards dare the Latin race to shame?
18466Shall this be, And Troy have blazed and Priam''s self been slain, And Trojan blood so oft have soaked the Dardan plain?
18466Shall vessels, fashioned by a mortal hand, The gift of immortality command?
18466Shalt thou, my son, expire, And I live on, my darling in the tomb, Saved by thy wounds, and living by thy doom?
18466Shrill and loud"Stand, who are ye in armour dight, and why?
18466So madly long they for the light?"
18466So swar''st thou; Father, say, why changed is thy decree?
18466Some sign Vouchsafe us, whom to follow?
18466Some warlike engine?
18466Still dwells thy War- God in a windy tongue, And flying feet, and knees all feeble and unstrung?
18466Such floods of passion can thy breast contain?
18466Take we the Danaans''bucklers; with a foe Who asks, if craft or courage guide the blow?
18466Tell me, why With ghastly wounds do I behold thee scarred?''
18466Then Jove, as from a saffron cloud above Looked Juno, pleased the doubtful strife to view,"When shall this end, sweet partner of my love?
18466Then Juno meekly:"Dearest, why delight With cruel words to vex me, sad with fear And sick at heart?
18466Then Mnestheus cries:"Friends, whither would ye flee?
18466Then Nisus:"Is it that the Gods inspire, Euryalus, this fever of the breast?
18466Then She with tears:"What if thy heart should give The pledge and promise, that thy lips disdain, And Turnus by thy warrant still should live?
18466Then Turnus, glorying in his fancied prize,"Where now, AEneas, from thy plighted bride?
18466Then Vulcan, mastered by immortal love, Answers his spouse,"Why, Goddess mine, invent Such far- fetched pleas?
18466Then brave Caicus from a bastion cried,"What dark mass, rolling towards us, have we here?
18466Then first with eager joy"O Goddess- born,"the bold Achates cries,"How now-- what purpose doth thy mind devise?
18466Then he in scorn:"Yea, Tiber''s waves beset With foreign ships-- I know it; wherefore feign For me such terrors?
18466Then spake AEneas, for with strange dismay He viewed the tumult,"Prithee, maiden, say What means this thronging to the river- side?
18466Then spake her son, who wields the starry sphere,"Mother, what would''st thou of the Fates demand?
18466Then, roused with rage, spake Juno:"Wherefore make My lips break silence and lay bare my woe?
18466Then,"Watchest thou, AEneas, child divine?
18466Think''st thou such grief concerns the shades below?
18466This the end?
18466This the return?
18466Thou, the late solace of my age?
18466Thus, thus dost thou thy plighted word regard, Our sceptred realms restore, our piety reward?"
18466Thy corpse defiled, Thy mangled limbs-- where are they?
18466Thy sceptre to a Dardan guest transferred?
18466To us what booteth thy Trinacrian name, Thy spoil- hung house, thy roof with prizes fraught?"
18466Unarmed, AEneas, with uncovered brow, Stretched out his hands, and shouted to his train:"Where rush ye, men?
18466V. Then Anna:"Sister, dearer than the day, Why thus in loneliness and endless woe Wilt thou for ever wear thy youth away?
18466War do ye bring, our cattle stol''n and slain?
18466Was it for this I roamed the land and sea?
18466Was it right A god with mortal weapons to pursue?
18466What God or man AEneas forced to take The sword, and make the Latin King his foe?
18466What God, what madness blinded you, that e''er Ye thought to venture to Italia''s land?
18466What Myrmidon, or who Of stern Ulysses''warriors can withhold His tears, to tell such things, as thou would''st have re- told?
18466What art thou seeking for these Teucrians here?
18466What care Or craft thy days can lengthen?
18466What clue Shall trace the mazes of this silvan snare, The tangled path unravelling?"
18466What end of standing?
18466What fate hereafter shall our steps attend?
18466What fear hath stirred them to provoke the war?
18466What flight Is this?
18466What godlike parents bore a child so bright?
18466What happy ages did thy birth delight?
18466What hinders for the homeless here to gain A home-- an Ilion for the one we lost?
18466What is AEneas''ignorance to me?
18466What joy hath aught beside, Thou, Turnus, dead?
18466What land Is this, to treat us in this barbarous way?
18466What make ye there?"
18466What more?
18466What most-- thy deeds or justice-- shall I prize?
18466What name, O maiden, shall I give to thee, For mortal never had thy voice or mien?
18466What noise of grief,"he cries,"comes rolling from the town?"
18466What of that band, who followed me, whom I-- Shame on me-- left a shameful death to rue?
18466What other choice was left, what other chance to try?
18466What other walls, what further town have we?
18466What pain Do they endure?
18466What pledge of safety more Doth Fortune give?
18466What praise can match thee?
18466What presence guards the gate?
18466What rest for toil- worn men, and whitherward to wend?
18466What sadder sight elsewhere Had Troy, now whelmed in utter wreck, to show?
18466What scheme is thine?
18466What schemes he now?
18466What seek the souls?
18466What shall he do?
18466What should he do?
18466What use of weapons, if ye fear to fight?
18466What wilt thou, chill in cloudland?
18466What worthy fate Hath caught thee, fallen from a spouse so high?
18466What, father Neptune, now, what mischief dost devise?"
18466What, fell they not on the Sigean plain?
18466What, hapless Dido, were thy feelings then?
18466What; swerving still?"
18466When shall this end?
18466Whence came I?
18466Whence comest thou again, Long- looked- for Hector?
18466Whence this impious jar?
18466Where am I?
18466Where can Earth for me Gape deep enough?
18466Where hurriest thou again?"
18466Where is his match?
18466Where is thy god, that Eryx?
18466Where is thy old affection?
18466Where that hand So oft to Turnus pledged, thy kinsman of the land?
18466Where then was Juno?
18466Where vanished is thy love?
18466Where, Euryalus, shall I follow thee?
18466Wherefore cheat Thy son so oft with images and lies?
18466Wherefore this delay?
18466Which way to wander, whither to return?
18466Whither am I borne?
18466Who dreamed that Teucrians should Hesperia gain?
18466Who parts the shades, what doom the difference can decide?"
18466Who planned the steed, and why?
18466Who tears thee hence?
18466Who then henceforth shall Juno''s power adore?
18466Who then her fanes frequent, her deity implore?"
18466Who was there The God, and whose the tyranny to blame For fraud like that?
18466Who would fail to tell of thee, Fabricius, potent in thy poverty?
18466Who, foul spawn of earth, shall call Me beaten?
18466Whom dost thou fly?
18466Whom first, dread maiden, did thy javelin quell?
18466Whom last?
18466Whom shuns he?
18466Whom to be buried?
18466Whose heart had will, whose cruel hand had might To wreak such punishment?
18466Why Theseus?
18466Why change and change?
18466Why delay?
18466Why fawn and feign?
18466Why keep aloof?
18466Why may I not clasp hands, and talk without disguise?"
18466Why seek for towns with battle in their womb, And beard a savage foeman in his lair?
18466Why separate, do they Turn back, while others sweep the leaden tide?
18466Why shifts my frenzied purpose to and fro?
18466Why should more words of mine the rising South delay?''
18466Why so fain Sweet husband, thus to sorrow and repine?
18466Why stand ye thus afraid?"
18466Why stay I?
18466Why stay your hand?
18466Why tell of wars from Tyre, A brother''s threats?
18466Why this sword and spear?
18466Why, Teucrians, do I keep you?
18466Will no one arm and chase them, or undock The ships?
18466With her right hand she grasped me from above, And thus with roseate lips:''O son, what mean These transports?
18466Would''st thou in death desert me, and pretend To scorn a sister''s care, and shun me as a friend?
18466Wrought we the wreck, when Ilion sank in gloom, We, or the hands that urged poor Trojans to their doom?
18466Your kin, and where your home?
18466_ Thus_ Ulysses do ye know?
18466and cloak such treason with a lie?
18466and how do I return, and who?
18466and lay your choicest low?
18466and to plant in vain These walls, to shield you from the foemen''s hand?
18466and whence and whither are ye bound?"
18466ay, and he Cooped thus within your ramparts, work such woe, Such deaths-- and unavenged?
18466could''st thou fancy it?
18466cries Volscens from the crowd,"And whither wend ye?"
18466do I behold thee?
18466do ye think the foe Gone, or that guileless are their gifts?
18466dost thou think to flee?
18466dropped he a single tear Sighed he with me, or spake a lover''s heart to cheer?
18466eating boards as well?"
18466he an outcast?
18466he chides her, as she flies,"Art thou, then, also cruel?
18466he exclaims,"What mean ye now?
18466hear thee move Sweet converse as of old?
18466how many in the dust lay low?
18466how shall thanks be paid?
18466like whom in face?
18466ne''er hear the name of Troy?
18466nevermore shall I behold with joy A Xanthus and a Simois again, Our Hector''s streams?
18466no shame For Troy''s old gods, and for your native land, And for the great AEneas, and his name?"
18466nor her mother, left forlorn, When, with the rising North- wind, o''er the sea Yon faithless pirate hath the maiden borne?
18466on what quest Come ye?
18466or religious vow?
18466or scion of his stock renowned?
18466or the Scipios, ye Twin thunderbolts of battle, and the bane Of Libya?
18466or why a feud so dire?
18466said AEneas,"can it be, That souls sublime, so happy and so free, Can yearn for fleshly tenements again?
18466shall Dido, made a jest To former lovers, stoop herself to sue, And beg the Nomad lords their oft- scorned vows renew?
18466shall I wait, and wait, till Turnus deign To take fresh heart, and tempt the war''s rough game, And, conquered, face his conqueror again?
18466shall a woman scatter you in flight?
18466shall tongue make utterance or refrain?
18466she cries,''what mad desire Arms thee for battle?
18466the Gracchi?
18466the cause of death?
18466thine this snare?
18466this the promise sworn?
18466thought''st thou''twas the chase?
18466till Pygmalion waste my state, Or on Iarbas''wheels, a captive queen, to wait?
18466to fly, whom I have doomed to fall; Think''st thou to baffle Turnus of his prize?"
18466was this thy secret?
18466what art To calm her frenzy, now hath vow or shrine?
18466what better hopes remain?
18466what clamour on the winds is blown?
18466what dire indignity hath marred The calmness of thy features?
18466what do I say?
18466what fate through dangers sore, What force to savage coasts compels thy flight?
18466what hope allures thine eyes, To loiter thus in Libya?
18466what hope the chief constrains To linger''mid a hostile race, nor heed Ausonia''s sons and the Lavinian plains?
18466what last?
18466what lot is thine?
18466what madness doth thy mind o''ertake?
18466what meed, to match such worth divine, Can good AEneas give thee?
18466what more For Turnus can a sister now?
18466what more have I to fear, What more to wait for, having known the worst?
18466what opening can he find To break the news, the infuriate Queen withstand?
18466what path to tread, To win deliverance from such toils?''
18466what spot on earth or sea Is left,''he cried,''to shield a wretch like me, Whom Dardans seek in punishment to kill, And Greeks disown?''
18466what still extremer woe Doth Fortune doom the living to bemoan?
18466what sudden discord now Is this?
18466what the crowd so great, That filled the river''s margin?
18466what to do?
18466what tower Still hold we?''
18466what wailings rend the skies?"
18466what woes remain?
18466what worse remains to bear?
18466whence so impious a request?
18466whence this sudden light so clear?
18466where Was cloud- sent Iris?
18466where to rest?
18466where,"he cries,"That fiery spirit?"
18466wherefore claim An old man''s privilege of empty woe?
18466wherefore would he spurn my prayer?
18466whither do ye run?
18466who Of all the gods hath torn thee from our side?
18466who and what ye are?
18466who listened or obeyed?
18466why and how This long delay?
18466why taunt and threaten?
18466why tell the nameless deeds of shame, The savage murders wrought from day to day?
18466wilt thou behold unstirred Such labours wasted, and thy hopes belied?
