Hesiod was taught ²⁴ By them to sing adeptly as he brought ²⁵ His sheep to pasture underneath the gaze ²⁶ of Helicon, and in those early day ²⁷ Those daughters of Lord Zeus proclaimed to me: ²⁸ “You who tend sheep, full of iniquity, ²⁹ Mere wretched bellies, we know how to tell ³⁰ False things that yet seem true, but we know well ³¹ How to speak truth at will.” Thus fluidly ³² Spoke Zeus’s daughters. Then they gave to me ³³ A sturdy laurel shoot, plucked from the ground, ³⁴ A wondrous thing, and breathed a sacred sound ³⁶ The past and future, and to lionize ³⁷ The blessed gods they bade me, but to praise ⁸⁰ With lightning and with thunder holding sway ⁸¹ In heaven, once Cronus he’d subjugated ⁸² As to the immortals he disseminated ⁸³ Their rights. Lord Zeus begat this company ⁸⁴ of Muses, Thalia, Melpomene, ⁸⁵ Clio, Euterpe and Terpsichory, ⁸⁶ And Polyhymnia, Calliope, ⁸⁷ Urania, Erato: but the best ⁸⁸ of all of them, deferred to by the rest ⁸⁹ of all the Muses is Calliope ⁹⁰ Because the kings blest by divinity ⁹¹ She serves. Each god-nursed king whom they adore, ⁹² Beholding him at birth, for him they pour ⁹⁶ Their undertakings and unswervingly ⁹⁷ End weighty arguments: thus are there found ⁹⁸ Wise kings who in crisis turn around ⁹⁹ The problem in assembly easily, ¹⁰⁰ Employing gentle words persuasively, ¹⁰¹ And he stood out among them. Thus were they ¹⁰² A holy gift to me, for to this day ¹⁰³ Through them and archer Phoebus here on earth ²²² Love and Desire formed a union ²²⁴ of them then went to join the company ²³¹ He labelled Titans for they used huge strain ²³² To do a dreadful deed, and so the pain ²³³ of punishment would follow. Night gave breath ³¹⁶ He held a gold sword. Pegasus left the earth, ³¹⁸ Up to the deathless gods, where he would stay: ⁴⁷² He whom the goddess looks on favourably ⁴⁷³ Easily gains great honour. She bestow ⁴⁸³ Still holds. And since Hecate does not posse ⁴⁸⁴ Siblings, of honour she receives no less, ⁴⁸⁵ Since Zeus esteems her, nay, she gains yet more. ⁴⁸⁶ To those she chooses she provides great store ⁴⁸⁷ of benefits. As intermediary, ⁷⁶⁰ Were strong and mighty, took their sight away. ⁹⁰¹ A bull, unruly, proud and furious, ⁹⁰² Would sound, sometimes a lion, mercile ⁹⁰³ At heart, sometimes – most wonderful to hear – ⁹⁰⁴ The sound of whelps was heard, sometimes the ear ⁹⁰⁵ Would catch a hissing sound, which then would change ⁹⁰⁶ To echoing along the mountain range. ⁹²⁴ Beneath that Hell, residing with the lord ⁹²⁵ Cronus, shook too at the disharmony ⁹²⁶ And dreadful clamour. When his weaponry, ⁹²⁷ Thunder and lightning, Zeus had seized, his might ⁹²⁸ Well-shored, from high Olympus he took flight, ⁹²⁹ Lashed out at him and burned that prodigy, ⁹⁵⁰ Sailors and ships as fearfully they blow ⁹⁵¹ In every season, making powerle ⁹⁵² The sailors.

2.53 But whence each of the gods came to be, or whether all had always been, and how they appeared in form, they did not know until yesterday or the day before, so to speak; ,for I suppose Hesiod and Homer flourished not more than four hundred years earlier than I; and these are the ones who taught the Greeks the descent of the gods, and gave the gods their names, and determined their spheres and functions, and described their outward forms. ,But the poets who are said to have been earlier than these men were, in my opinion, later. The earlier part of all this is what the priestesses of Dodona tell; the later, that which concerns Hesiod and Homer, is what I myself say. ^5.92 These were the words of the Lacedaemonians, but their words were ill-received by the greater part of their allies. The rest then keeping silence, Socles, a Corinthian, said, ,“In truth heaven will be beneath the earth and the earth aloft above the heaven, and men will dwell in the sea and fishes where men dwelt before, now that you, Lacedaemonians, are destroying the rule of equals and making ready to bring back tyranny into the cities, tyranny, a thing more unrighteous and bloodthirsty than anything else on this earth. ,If indeed it seems to you to be a good thing that the cities be ruled by tyrants, set up a tyrant among yourselves first and then seek to set up such for the rest. As it is, however, you, who have never made trial of tyrants and take the greatest precautions that none will arise at Sparta, deal wrongfully with your allies. If you had such experience of that thing as we have, you would be more prudent advisers concerning it than you are now.” ,The Corinthian state was ordered in such manner as I will show.There was an oligarchy, and this group of men, called the Bacchiadae, held sway in the city, marrying and giving in marriage among themselves. Now Amphion, one of these men, had a crippled daughter, whose name was Labda. Since none of the Bacchiadae would marry her, she was wedded to Eetion son of Echecrates, of the township of Petra, a Lapith by lineage and of the posterity of Caeneus. ,When no sons were born to him by this wife or any other, he set out to Delphi to enquire concerning the matter of acquiring offspring. As soon as he entered, the Pythian priestess spoke these verses to him:
7.43 When the army had come to the river Scamander, which was the first river after the beginning of their march from Sardis that fell short of their needs and was not sufficient for the army and the cattle to drink—arriving at this river, Xerxes ascended to the citadel of Priam, having a desire to see it. ,After he saw it and asked about everything there, he sacrificed a thousand cattle to Athena of Ilium, and the Magi offered libations to the heroes. After they did this, a panic fell upon the camp in the night. When it was day they journeyed on from there, keeping on their left the cities of Rhoetium and Ophryneum and Dardanus, which borders Abydos, and on their right the Teucrian Gergithae. '' None

2.1.21 Aye, and Prodicus the wise expresses himself to the like effect concerning Virtue in the essay On Heracles that he recites to throngs of listeners. This, so far as I remember, is how he puts it: When Heracles was passing from boyhood to youth’s estate, wherein the young, now becoming their own masters, show whether they will approach life by the path of virtue or the path of vice, he went out into a quiet place, ^2.1.22 and sat pondering which road to take. And there appeared two women of great stature making towards him. The one was fair to see and of high bearing; and her limbs were adorned with purity, her eyes with modesty; sober was her figure, and her robe was white. The other was plump and soft, with high feeding. Her face was made up to heighten its natural white and pink, her figure to exaggerate her height. Open-eyed was she; and dressed so as to disclose all her charms. Now she eyed herself; anon looked whether any noticed her; and often stole a glance at her own shadow. ^2.1.23 When they drew nigh to Heracles, the first pursued the even tenor of her way: but the other, all eager to outdo her, ran to meet him, crying: Heracles, I see that you are in doubt which path to take towards life. Make me your friend; follow me, and I will lead you along the pleasantest and easiest road. You shall taste all the sweets of life; and hardship you shall never know. '' None

2.62 Those gods therefore who were the authors of various benefits owned their deification to the value of the benefits which they bestowed, and indeed the names that I just now enumerated express the various powers of the gods that bear them. "Human experience moreover and general custom have made it a practice to confer the deification of renown and gratitude upon of distinguished benefactors. This is the origin of Hercules, of Castor and Pollux, of Aesculapius, and also of Liber (I mean Liber the son of Semele, not the Liber whom our ancestors solemnly and devoutly consecrated with Ceres and Libera, the import of which joint consecration may be gathered from the mysteries; but Liber and Libera were so named as Ceres\' offspring, that being the meaning of our Latin word liberi — a use which has survived in the case of Libera but not of Liber) — and this is also the origin of Romulus, who is believed to be the same as Quirinus.

Thus Hercules denied himself and underwent toil and tribulation for the world, and, out of gratitude for his services, popular belief has given him a place in the council of the gods. The better and more noble, therefore, the character with which a man is endowed, the more does he prefer the life of service to the life of pleasure.

4.66 1. \xa0As for The Seven against Thebes, such, then, was the outcome of their campaign. But their sons, who were known as Epigoni, being intent upon avenging the death of their fathers, decided to make common cause in a campaign against Thebes, having received an oracle from Apollo that they should make war upon this city, and with Alcmaeon, the son of AmphiaraÃ¼s, as their supreme commander.,2. \xa0Alcmaeon, after they had chosen him to be their commander, inquired of the god concerning the campaign against Thebes and also concerning the punishment of his mother EriphylÃª.,3. \xa0And Apollo replied that he should perform both these deeds, not only because EriphylÃª had accepted the golden necklace in return for working the destruction of his father, but also because she had received a robe as a reward for securing the death of her son. For AphroditÃª, as we are told, in ancient times had given both the necklace and a robe as presents to Harmonia, the daughter of Cadmus, and EriphylÃª had accepted both of them, receiving the necklace from Polyneices and the robe from Thersandrus, the son of Polyneices, who had given it to her in order to induce her to persuade her son to make the campaign against Thebes. Alcmaeon, accordingly, gathered soldiers, not only from Argos but from the neighbouring cities as well, and so had a notable army as he set out on the campaign against Thebes.,4. \xa0The Thebans drew themselves up against him and a mighty battle took place in which Alcmaeon and his allies were victorious; and the Thebans, since they had been worsted in the battle and had lost many of their citizens, found their hopes shattered. And since they were not strong enough to offer further resistance, they consulted the seer Teiresias, who advised them to flee from the city, for only in this way, he said, could they save their lives.,5. \xa0Consequently the Cadmeans left the city, as the seer had counselled them to do, and gathered for refuge by month in a place in Boeotia called Tilphossaeum. Thereupon the Epigoni took the city and sacked it, and capturing DaphnÃª, the daughter of Teiresias, they dedicated her, in accordance with a certain vow, to the service of the temple at Delphi as an offering to the god of the first-fruits of the booty.,6. \xa0This maiden possessed no less knowledge of prophecy than her father, and in the course of her stay at Delphi she developed her skill to a far greater degree; moreover, by virtue of the employment of a marvellous natural gift, she also wrote oracular responses of every sort, excelling in their composition; and indeed it was from her poetry, they say, that the poet Homer took many verses which he appropriated as his own and with them adorned his own poesy. And since she was often like one inspired when she delivered oracles, they say that she was also called Sibylla, for to be inspired in one's tongue is expressed by the word sibyllainein." ^17.17.3 \xa0He visited the tombs of the heroes Achilles, Ajax, and the rest and honoured them with offerings and other appropriate marks of respect, and then proceeded to make an accurate count of his accompanying forces. There were found to be, of infantry, twelve thousand Macedonians, seven thousand allies, and five thousand mercenaries, all of whom were under the command of Parmenion.'" None

The Trojans stood, ^12.98 all ready to prevent the hostile Greek ^12.99 from landing on their shores.

The Phyrgians also learned, ^12.105 at no small cost of blood, what warlike strength ^12.106 came from the Grecian land. The Sigean shore' "^12.107 grew red with death-blood: Cygnus, Neptune 's son," '^12.108 there slew a thousand men: for which, in wrath, ^12.109 Achilles pressed his rapid chariot ^12.110 traight through the Trojan army; making a lane ^12.111 with his great spear, shaped from a Pelion tree.' "^12.112 And as he sought through the fierce battle's press," '^12.113 either for Cygnus or for Hector , he ^12.114 met Cygnus and engaged at once with him ^12.115 (Fate had preserved great Hector from such foe ^12.116 till ten years from that day). ^12.118 their white necks pressed upon the straining yoke, ^12.119 he steered the chariot towards his foe, ^12.120 and, brandishing the spear with his strong arm, ^12.121 he cried, “Whoever you may be, you have ^12.122 the consolation of a glorious death ^12.123 you die by me, Haemonian Achilles!” ^12.125 Although the spear was whirled direct and true, ^12.126 yet nothing it availed with sharpened point. ^12.127 It only bruised, as with a blunted stroke, ^12.128 the breast of Cygnus ! “By report we knew ^12.129 of you before this battle, goddess born.” ^12.130 The other answered him, “But why are you ^12.131 urprised that I escape the threatened wound?” ^12.132 (Achilles was surprised). “This helmet crowned, ^12.133 great with its tawny horse-hair, and this shield, ^12.134 broad-hollowed, on my left arm, are not held ^12.135 for help in war: they are but ornament, ^12.136 as Mars wears armor. All of them shall be ^12.137 put off, and I will fight with you unhurt. ^12.138 It is a privilege that I was born ^12.139 not as you, of a Nereid but of him ^12.140 whose powerful rule is over Nereus, ^12.141 his daughters and their ocean.” So, he spoke. ^12.143 destined to pierce the curving shield through brass,' "^12.144 and through nine folds of tough bull's hide." '^12.145 It stopped there, for it could not pierce the tenth. ^12.612 though only slightly wounded, grew quite cold, ^12.613 and his whole body felt cold, afterwards, ^15.148 of ‘Golden,’ was so blest in fruit of trees, ^15.149 and in the good herbs which the earth produced ^15.150 that it never would pollute the mouth with blood. ^15.151 The birds then safely moved their wings in air, ^15.152 the timid hares would wander in the field ^15.871 that I should pass my life in exile than ^15.872 be seen a king throned in the capitol.” ^15.875 But first he veiled his horns with laurel, which ^15.876 betokens peace.

sup>1.8 And when he came to Crete, Ariadne, daughter of Minos, being amorously disposed to him, offered to help him if he would agree to carry her away to Athens and have her to wife. Theseus having agreed on oath to do so, she besought Daedalus to disclose the way out of the labyrinth. ' "^1.9 And at his suggestion she gave Theseus a clue when he went in; Theseus fastened it to the door, and, drawing it after him, entered in. Compare Scholiast on Hom. Od. xi.322, Scholiast on Hom. Il. xviii.590 ; Eustathius on Hom. Od. xi.320, p. 1688 ; Diod. 4.61.4 ; Plut. Thes. 19 ; Hyginus, Fab. 42 ; Serv. Verg. A. 6.14, and on Georg. i.222 ; Lactantius Placidus on Statius, Theb. xii.676 ; Scriptores rerum mythicarum Latini, ed. Bode, i. pp. 16, 116ff. (First Vatican Mythographer 43; Second Vatican Mythographer 124) . The clearest description of the clue, with which the amorous Ariadne furnished Theseus, is given by the Scholiasts and Eustathius on Homer l.c. . From them we learn that it was a ball of thread which Ariadne had begged of Daedalus for the use of her lover. He was to fasten one end of the thread to the lintel of the door on entering into the labyrinth, and holding the ball in his hand to unwind the skein while he penetrated deeper and deeper into the maze, till he found the Minotaur asleep in the inmost recess; then he was to catch the monster by the hair and sacrifice him to Poseidon; after which he was to retrace his steps, gathering up the thread behind him as he went. According to the Scholiast on the Odyssey (l.c.), the story was told by Pherecydes, whom later authors may have copied. And having found the Minotaur in the last part of the labyrinth, he killed him by smiting him with his fists; and drawing the clue after him made his way out again. And by night he arrived with Ariadne and the children That is, the boys and girls whom he had rescued from the Minotaur. at Naxos . There Dionysus fell in love with Ariadne and carried her off; Compare Diod. 4.61.5 ; Plut. Thes. 20 ; Paus. 1.20.3 ; Paus. 10.29.4 ; Scholiast on Ap. Rhod., Argon. iii.997 ; Scholiast on Theocritus ii.45 ; Catul. 64.116ff. ; Ovid, Her. x. ; Ovid, Ars Am. i.527ff. ; Ov. Met. 8.174ff. ; Hyginus, Fab. 43 ; Serv. Verg. G. 1.222 ; Scriptores rerum mythicarum Latini, ed. Bode, i. pp. 116ff. (Second Vatican Mythographer 124) . Homer's account of the fate of Ariadne is different. He says ( Hom. Od. 11.321-325 ) that when Theseus was carrying off Ariadne from Crete to Athens she was slain by Artemis in the island of Dia at the instigation of Dionysus. Later writers, such as Diodorus Siculus identified Dia with Naxos, but it is rather “the little island, now Standia, just off Heraclaion, on the north coast of Crete . Theseus would pass the island in sailing for Athens ” ( Merry on Hom. Od. xi.322 ). Apollodorus seems to be the only extant ancient author who mentions that Dionysus carried off Ariadne from Naxos to Lemnos and had intercourse with her there. and having brought her to Lemnos he enjoyed her, and begat Thoas, Staphylus, Oenopion, and Peparethus. Compare Scholiast on Ap. Rhod., Argon. iii.997 . Others said that Ariadne bore Staphylus and Oenopion to Theseus ( Plut. Thes. 20 ). " "^5.11 On hearing these things the Greeks caused the bones of Pelops to be fetched, and they sent Ulysses and Phoenix to Lycomedes at Scyros, and these two persuaded him to let Neoptolemus go. As to the fetching of Neoptolemus from Scyros, see Hom. Od. 11.506ff. ; the Little Iliad of Lesches, summarized by Proclus, in Epicorum Graecorum Fragmenta, ed. G. Kinkel, pp. 36ff. ; Pind. Pa. 6.98ff. ; Soph. Phil. 343-356 ; Philostratus Junior, Im. 2 ; Quintus Smyrnaeus, Posthomerica vi.57-113, vii.169- 430 ; Tzetzes, Posthomerica 523-534 . Apollodorus agrees with Sophocles in saying that the Greek envoys who fetched Neoptolemus from Scyros were Ulysses and Phoenix. According to Quintus Smyrnaeus, they were Ulysses and Diomedes. Ulysses is the only envoy mentioned by Homer, Lesches, and Tzetzes; and Phoenix is the only envoy mentioned by Philostratus. Pindar speaks vaguely of “messengers.” In this passage I have adopted Wagner's conjecture πείθουσι < αὐ> τὸν νεοπτόλεμον προέσθαι, “persuaded him to let Neoptolemus go.” If this conjecture is not accepted, we seem forced to translate the passage “persuaded Neoptolemus to venture.” But I cannot cite any exact parallel to such a use of the middle of προΐημι. When employed absolutely, the verb seems often to convey a bad meaning. Thus Demosthenes uses it in the sense of “throwing away a chance,” “neglecting an opportunity” ( Dem.19.150, 152, μὴ πρόεσθαι, οὐ προήσεσθαι ). Iphicrates employed it with the same significance (quoted by Aristot. Rh. 2.1397b διότι προεῖτο ). Aristotle applied the verb to a man who had “thrown away” his health ( Aristot. Nic. Eth. 3.1114a 15, τότε μὲν οὖν ἐξῆν αὐτῷ μὴ νοσεῖν, προεμένῳ δ’ οὐκέτι, ὥσπερ οὐδ’ ἀφέντι λίθον ἔτ’ αὐτὸν δυνατὸν ἀναλαβεῖν ). However, elsewhere Aristotle uses the word to describe the lavish liberality of generous men ( Aristot. Rh. 1.1366b, εἶτα ἡ ἐλευθεριότης: προΐενται γὰρ καὶ οὐκ ἀνταγωνίζονται περὶ τῶν χρημάτων, ὧν μάλιστα ἐφίενται ἄλλοι ). In the present passage of Apollodorus, if Wagner's emendation is not accepted, we might perhaps read <μὴ>πρόεσθαι and translate, “persuaded Neoptolemus not to throw away the chance.” But it is better to acquiesce in Wagner's simple and probable correction. On coming to the camp and receiving his father's arms from Ulysses, who willingly resigned them, Neoptolemus slew many of the Trojans." ' None

37 Why do the people of Tanagra have before their city an Achilleum, that is, a place bearing this name? For it is related that Achilles actually had more enmity than friendship for the city, since he carried off Stratonicê, the mother of Poemander, and slew Acestor, the son of Ephippus. A grandson of Poemander. While the territory of Tanagra was still inhabited in village communities, Poemander, the father of Ephippus, had been besieged by the Achaeans in the place called Stephon, because of his unwillingness to join their expedition. Against Troy. But he abandoned that stronghold by night and fortified Poemandria. cf. Pausanias, ix. 20. 1. Polycrithus the master-builder, however, who was present, spoke slightingly of the fortifications and, in derision, leaped over the moat. Poemander was enraged and hastened to throw at him a great stone which had been hidden there from ancient days, set aside for use in the ritual of the Nyctelia. These rites resembled those of the rending and resurrection of Osiris; Cf. Moralia 367 f. This stone Poemander snatched up in his ignorance, and hurled. He missed Polycrithus, but slew his son Leucippus. According to the law, therefore, he had to depart from Boeotia and become a suppliant at a stranger’s hearth. But this was not easy, since the Achaeans had invaded the territory of Tanagra. Accordingly he sent his son Ephippus to appeal to Achilles. Ephippus, by his persuasive words, brought to his father Achilles, as well as Tlepolemus, the son of Heracles, and Peneleös, the son of Hippalcmas, all of them interrelated. Poemander was escorted by them to Chalcis, and there at the house of Elephenor he was purified of the murder. Therefore he honoured these heroes and set apart sacred precincts for them all, and of these the precinct of Achilles has still kept its name.'' None

82.4 Do you ask who are my pacemakers? One is enough for me, – the slave Pharius, a pleasant fellow, as you know; but I shall exchange him for another. At my time of life I need one who is of still more tender years. Pharius, at any rate, says that he and I are at the same period of life; for we are both losing our teeth.3 Yet even now I can scarcely follow his pace as he runs, and within a very short time I shall not be able to follow him at all; so you see what profit we get from daily exercise. Very soon does a wide interval open between two persons who travel different ways. My slave is climbing up at the very moment when I am coming down, and you surely know how much quicker the latter is. Nay, I was wrong; for now my life is not coming down; it is falling outright. ^82.4 What then is the advantage of retirement? As if the real causes of our anxieties did not follow us across the seas! What hiding-place is there, where the fear of death does not enter? What peaceful haunts are there, so fortified and so far withdrawn that pain does not fill them with fear? Wherever you hide yourself, human ills will make an uproar all around. There are many external things which compass us about, to deceive us or to weigh upon us; there are many things within which, even amid solitude, fret and ferment. ^82.5 Do you ask, for all that, how our race resulted to-day? We raced to a tie,4– something which rarely happens in a running contest. After tiring myself out in this way (for I cannot call it exercise), I took a cold bath; this, at my house, means just short of hot. I, the former cold-water enthusiast, who used to celebrate the new year by taking a plunge into the canal, who, just as naturally as I would set out to do some reading or writing, or to compose a speech, used to inaugurate the first of the year with a plunge into the Virgo aqueduct,5 have changed my allegiance, first to the Tiber, and then to my favourite tank, which is warmed only by the sun, at times when I am most robust and when there is not a flaw in my bodily processes. I have very little energy left for bathing. '^82.5 Therefore, gird yourself about with philosophy, an impregnable wall. Though it be assaulted by many engines, Fortune can find no passage into it. The soul stands on unassailable ground, if it has abandoned external things; it is independent in its own fortress; and every weapon that is hurled falls short of the mark. Fortune has not the long reach with which we credit her; she can seize none except him that clings to her. ' None

11.24 When morning came, and that the solemnities were finished, I came forth sanctified with twelve robes and in a religious habit. I am not forbidden to speak of this since many persons saw me at that time. There I was commanded to stand upon a seat of wood which stood in the middle of the temple before the image of the goddess. My vestment was of fine linen, covered and embroidered with flowers. I had a precious cloak upon my shoulders hung down to the ground. On it were depicted beasts wrought of diverse colors: Indian dragons and Hyperborean griffins which the other world engenders in the form of birds. The priests commonly call such a habit a celestial robe. In my right hand I carried a lit torch. There was a garland of flowers upon my head with palm leaves sprouting out on every side. I was adorned like un the sun and made in fashion of an image such that all the people came up to behold me. Then they began to solemnize the feast of the nativity and the new procession, with sumptuous banquets and delicacies. The third day was likewise celebrated with like ceremonies with a religious dinner, and with all the consummation of the order. After I had stayed there a good space, I conceived a marvelous pleasure and consolation in beholding the image of the goddess. She at length urged me to depart homeward. I rendered my thanks which, although not sufficient, yet they were according to my power. However, I could not be persuaded to depart before I had fallen prostrate before the face of the goddess and wiped her steps with my face. Then I began greatly to weep and sigh (so uch so that my words were interrupted) and, as though devouring my prayer, I began to speak in this way:' ' None

1.4.4 So they tried to save Greece in the way described, but the Gauls, now south of the Gates, cared not at all to capture the other towns, but were very eager to sack Delphi and the treasures of the god. They were opposed by the Delphians themselves and the Phocians of the cities around Parnassus ; a force of Aetolians also joined the defenders, for the Aetolians at this time were pre-eminent for their vigorous activity. When the forces engaged, not only were thunderbolts and rocks broken off from Parnassus hurled against the Gauls, but terrible shapes as armed warriors haunted the foreigners. They say that two of them, Hyperochus and Amadocus, came from the Hyperboreans, and that the third was Pyrrhus son of Achilles. Because of this help in battle the Delphians sacrifice to Pyrrhus as to a hero, although formerly they held even his tomb in dishonor, as being that of an enemy. ^1.12.1 So Pyrrhus was the first to cross the Ionian Sea from Greece to attack the Romans. 280 B.C. And even he crossed on the invitation of the Tarentines. For they were already involved in a war with the Romans, but were no match for them unaided. Pyrrhus was already in their debt, because they had sent a fleet to help him in his war with Corcyra, but the most cogent arguments of the Tarentine envoys were their accounts of Italy, how its prosperity was equal to that of the whole of Greece, and their plea that it was wicked to dismiss them when they had come as friends and suppliants in their hour of need. When the envoys urged these considerations, Pyrrhus remembered the capture of Troy, which he took to be an omen of his success in the war, as he was a descendant of Achilles making war upon a colony of Trojans. ^3.20.8 On the road from Sparta to Arcadia there stands in the open an image of Athena surnamed Pareia, and after it is a sanctuary of Achilles. This it is not customary to open, but all the youths who are going to take part in the contest in Plane-tree Grove are wont to sacrifice to Achilles before the fight. The Spartans say that the sanctuary was made for them by Prax, a grandson of Pergamus the son of Neoptolemus. ^3.20.9 Further on is what is called the Tomb of Horse. For Tyndareus, having sacrificed a horse here, administered an oath to the suitors of Helen, making them stand upon the pieces of the horse. The oath was to defend Helen and him who might be chosen to marry her if ever they should be wronged. When he had sworn the suitors he buried the horse here. Seven pillars, which are not far from this tomb ... in the ancient manner, I believe, which they say are images of the planets. On the road is a precinct of Cranius surnamed Stemmatias, and a sanctuary of Mysian Artemis. ^8.14.9 As you go down from the acropolis of Pheneus you come to a stadium, and on a hill stands a tomb of Iphicles, the brother of Heracles and the father of Iolaus. Iolaus, according to the Greek account, shared most of the labours of Heracles, but his father Iphicles, in the first battle fought by Heracles against the Eleans and Augeas, was wounded by the sons of Actor, who were called after their mother Moline. In a fainting condition he was carried by his relatives to Pheneus, where he was carefully nursed by Buphagus, a citizen of Pheneus, and by his wife Promne, who also buried him when he died of his wound. ^8.14.10 They still sacrifice to Iphicles as to a hero, and of the gods the people of Pheneus worship most Hermes, in whose honor they celebrate the games called Hermaea; they have also a temple of Hermes, and a stone image, made by an Athenian, Eucheir the son of Eubulides. Behind the temple is the grave of Myrtilus. The Greeks say that he was the son of Hermes, and that he served as charioteer to Oenomaus. Whenever a man arrived to woo the daughter of Oenomaus, Myrtilus craftily drove on the mares, while Oenomaus on the course shot down the wooer when he came near.'' None

4.16 Therest of the company also besought him to tell them all about it, and as they were in a mood to listen to him, he said: Well, it was not by digging a ditch like Odysseus, nor by tempting souls with the blood of sheep, that I obtained a conversation with Achilles; but I offered up the prayer which the Indians say they use in approaching their heroes. “O Achilles,' I said, “most of mankind declare that you are dead, but I cannot agree with them, nor can Pythagoras, my spiritual ancestor. If then we hold the truth, show to us your own form; for you would profit not a little by showing yourself to my eyes, if you should be able to use them to attest your existence.” Thereupon a slight earthquake shook the neighborhood of the barrow, and a youth issued forth five cubits high, wearing a cloak ofThessalian fashion; but in appearance he was by no means the braggart figure which some imagine Achilles to have been. Though he was stern to look upon, he had never lost his bright look; and it seems to me that his beauty has never received its meed of praise, even though Homer dwelt at length upon it; for it was really beyond the power of words, and it is easier for the singer to ruin his fame in this respect than to praise him as he deserved. At first sight he was of the size which I have mentioned, but he grew bigger, till he was twice as large and even more than that; at any rate he appeared to me to be twelve cubits high just at that moment when he reached his complete stature, and his beauty grew apace with his length. He told me then that he had never at any time shorn off his hair, bit preserved it to inviolate for the river Spercheus, for this was the river of his first intimacy; but on his cheeks you saw the first down.And he addressed me and said: “I am pleased to have met you, since I have long wanted a man like yourself. For the Thessalians for a long time past have failed to present their offerings to my tomb, and I do not yet wish to show my wrath against them; for if I did so, they would perish more thoroughly than ever the Hellenes did on this spot; accordingly I resort to gentle advice, and would warn them not to violate ancient custom, nor to prove themselves worse men than the Trojans here, who though they were robbed of so many of their heroes by myself, yet sacrifice publicly to me, and also give me the tithes of their fruits of season, and olive branch in hand ask for a truce from my hostility. But this I will not grant, for the perjuries which they committed against me will not suffer Ilium ever to resume its pristine beauty, nor to regain the prosperity which yet has favored many a city that was destroyed of old; nay, if they rebuild it, things shall go as hard with them as if their city had been captured only yesterday. In order then to save me from bringing the Thessalian polity then to the same condition, you must go as my envoy to their council in behalf of the object I have mentioned.” “I will be your envoy,” I replied, “for the object of my embassy were to save them from ruin. But, O Achilles, I would ask something of you.” “I understand,” said he, “for it is plain you are going to ask about the Trojan war. So ask me five questions about whatever you like, and that the Fates approve of.” I accordingly asked him firstly, if he had obtained burial in accordance with the story of the poets. “I lie here,” he answered, “as was most delightful to myself and Patroclus; for you know we met in mere youth, and a single golden jar holds the remains of both of us, as if we were one. But as for the dirges of the Muses and Nereids, which they say are sung over me, the Muses, I may tell you, never once came here at all, though the Nereids still resort to the spot.” Next I asked him, if Polyxena was really slaughtered over his tomb; and he replied that this was true, but that she was not slain by the Achaeans, but that she came of her own free will to the sepulcher, and that so high was the value she set on her passion for him and she for her, that she threw herself upon an upright sword. The third questions was this: “Did Helen, O Achilles, really come to Troy or was it Homer that was pleased to make up the story?' “For a long time,” he replied, “we were deceived and tricked into sending envoys to the Trojans and fighting battles in her behalf, in the belief that she was in Ilium, whereas she really was living in Egypt and in the house of Proteus, whither she had been snatched away by Paris. But when we became convinced thereof, we continued to fight to win Troy itself, so as not to disgrace ourselves by retreat.” The fourth question which I ventured upon was this: “I wonder,” I said, “that Greece ever produced at any one time so many and such distinguished heroes as Homer says were gathered against Troy.' But Achilles answered: “Why even the barbarians did not fall far short of us, so abundantly then did excellence flourish all over the earth.” And my fifth question was this: “Why was it that Homer knew nothing about Palamedes, or if he knew him, then kept him out of your story?' “If Palamedes,' he answered, “never came to Troy, then Troy never existed either. But since this wisest and most warlike hero fell in obedience to Odysseus' whim, Homer does not introduce him into his poems, lest he should have to record the shame of Odysseus in his song.” And withal Achilles raised a wail over him as over one who was the greatest and most beautiful of men, the youngest and also the most warlike, one who in sobriety surpassed all others, and had often foregathered with the Muses. “But you,” he added, “O Apollonius, since sages have a tender regard for one another, you must care for his tomb and restore the image of Palamedes that has been so contemptuously cast aside; and it lies in Aeolis close to Methymna in Lesbos.' Wit these words and with the closing remarks concerning the youth from Paros, Achilles vanished with a flash of summer lightning, for indeed the cocks were already beginning their chant." ^5.14 Next they came to Catana, where is Mount Etna; and they say that they heard from the inhabitants of the city a story about Typho being bound on the spot and about fire rising from him, and this fire sends up the smoke of Etna; but they themselves came to more plausible conclusions and more in keeping with philosophy. And they say that Apollonius began the discussion by asking his companions: Is there such a thing as mythology? Yes, by Zeus, answered Menippus, and I mean by it that which furnishes poets with their themes. What then do you think of Aesop? He is a mythologist and writer of fables and no more. And which set of myths show any wisdom? Those of the poets, he answered, because they are represented in the poems as having taken place. And what then do you think of the stories of Aesop? Frogs, he answered, and donkeys and nonsense only fit to be swallowed by old women and children. And yet for my own part, said Apollonius, I find them more conducive to wisdom than the others. For those others, of which all poetry is so fond, and which deal with heroes, positively destroy the souls of their hearers, because the poet relates stories of outlandish passion and of incestuous marriages, and repeats calumnies against the gods, of how they ate their own children, and committed crimes of meanness, and quarreled with one another; and the affectation and pretense of reality leads passionate and jealous people and miserlike and ambitious persons to imitate the stories. Aesop on the other hand had in the first place the wisdom never to identify himself with those who put such stories into verse, but took a line of his own; and in the second, like those who dine well off the plainest dishes, he made use of humble incidents to teach great truths, and after serving up a story he adds to it the advice to do a thing or not to do it. Then, too, he was really more attached to truth than the poets are; for the latter do violence to their own stories in order to make them probable; but he by announcing a story which everyone knows not to be true, told the truth by the very fact that he did not claim to be relating real events. And the poet, after telling his story, leaves a healthy-minded reader cudgeling his brains to know whether it really happened; whereas one who, like Aesop, tells a story which is false and does not pretend to be anything else, merely investing it with a good moral, shows that he has made use of the falsehood merely for its utility to his audience. And there is another charm about him, namely, that he puts animals in a pleasing light and makes them interesting to mankind. For after being brought up from childhood with these stories, and after being as it were nursed by them from babyhood, we acquire certain opinions of the several animals and think of some of them as royal animals, of others as silly, of others as witty, and others as innocent. And whereas the poet, after telling us that there are “many forms of heavenly visitation” 1 or something of the kind, dismisses his chorus and departs, Aesop adds an oracle to his story, and dismisses his hearers just as they reach the conclusion he wished to lead the up to.' "^5.15 And as for myself, O Menippus, my mother taught me a story about the wisdom of Aesop when I was a mere child, and told me that he was once a shepherd, and was tending his flocks hard by a temple of Hermes, and that he was a passionate lover of wisdom and prayed to Hermes that he might receive it. Many other people, she said, also resorted to the temple of Hermes asking for the same gift, and one of them would hang on the altar gold, another silver, another a herald's wand of ivory, and others other rich presents of the kind. Now Aesop, she said, was not in a position to own any of these things; but he saved up what he had, and poured a libation of as much milk as a sheep would give at one milking in honor of Hermes, and brought a honeycomb and laid it on the altar, big enough to fill the hand, and he thought too of regaling the god with myrtle berries, or perhaps by laying just a few roses or violets at the altar. “For,” said he, “would you, O Hermes, have me weave crowns for you and neglect my sheep?' Now when on the appointed day they arrived for the distribution of the gifts of wisdom, Hermes as the god of wisdom and eloquence and also of gain and profit, said to him who, as you may well suppose, had made the biggest offering: “Here is philosophy for you'; and to him who had made the next handsomest present, he said: “Do you take your place among the orators'; and to others he said: “You shall have the gift of astronomy or you shall be a musician, or you shall be an epic poet and write in heroic metre, or you shall be a writer of iambics.” Now although he was a most wise and accomplished god he exhausted, not meaning to do so, all the various departments of wisdom, and then found that he had quite forgotten Aesop. Thereupon he remembered the Hours, by whom he himself had been nurtured on the peaks of Olympus, and bethought him of how once, when he was still in swaddling clothes, they had told him a story about the cow, which had a conversation with the man about herself and about the earth, and so set him aflame for the cows of Apollo. Accordingly he forthwith bestowed upon Aesop the art of fable called mythology, for that was all that was left in the house of wisdom, and said: Do you keep what was the first thing I learnt myself. Aesop then acquired the various forms of his art from that source, and the issue was such as we have seen in the matter of mythology." "^6.3 With such conversations, the occasions providing as usual the topics he talked about, he turned his steps towards Memnon; an Egyptian showed them the way, of whom Damis gives the following account: Timasion was the name of this stripling, who was just emerging from boyhood, and was now in the prime of life and strength. He had a stepmother who had fallen in love with him; and when he rejected her overtures, she set upon him and by way of spiting him had poisoned his father's mind against him, condescending to a lower intrigue than ever Phaedra had done, for she accused him of being effeminate, and of finding his pleasure in pederasts rather than in women. He had accordingly abandoned Naucratis, for it was there that all this happened, and was living in the neighborhood of Memphis; and he had acquired and manned a boat of his own and was plying as a waterman on the Nile. He then, was going down the river when he saw Apollonius sailing up it; and he concluded that the crew consisted of wise men, because he judged them by the cloaks they wore and the books they were hard at work studying. So he asked them whether they would allow one who was so passionately fond of wisdom as himself to share their voyage; and Apollonius said: This youth is wise, my friends, so let him be granted his request. And he further related the story about his stepmother to those of his companions who were nearest to him in a low tone while the stripling was still sailing towards them. But when the ships were alongside of one another, Timasion stepped out of his boat, and after addressing a word or two to his pilot, about the cargo in his own boat, he greeted the company. Apollonius then ordered him to sit down under his eyes, and said: You stripling of Egypt, for you seem to be one of the natives, tell me what you have done of evil or what of good; for in the one case you shall be forgiven by me, in consideration of your youth; but in the other you shall reap my commendation and become a fellow-student of philosophy with me and with these gentlemen. Then noticing that Timasion blushed and checked his impulse to speak, and hesitated whether to say or not what he had been going to say, he pressed his question and repeated it, just as if he had no foreknowledge of the youth at his command. Then Timasion plucked up courage and said: O Heavens, how shall I describe myself? for I am not a bad boy, and yet I do not know whether I ought to be considered a good one, for there is no particular merit in having abstained from wrong. But Apollonius cried: Bravo, my boy, you answer me just as if you were a sage from India; for this was just the sentiment of the divine Iarchas. But tell me how you came to form these opinions, and how long ago; for it strikes me that you have been on your guard against some sin. The youth then began to tell them of his stepmother's infatuation for himself, and of how he had rejected her advances; and when he did so, there was a shout in recognition of the divine inspiration under which Apollonius had foretold these details. Timasion, however, caught them up and said: Most excellent people, what is the matter with you? for my story is one which calls as little for your admiration, I think, as for your ridicule. But Damis said: It was not that we were admiring, but something else which you don't know about yet. As for you, my boy, we praise you because you think that you did nothing very remarkable. And Apollonius said: Do you sacrifice to Aphrodite, my boy? And Timasion answered: Yes, by Zeus, every day; for I consider that this goddess has great influence in human and divine affairs. Thereat Apollonius was delighted beyond measure, and cried: Let us, gentlemen, vote a crown to him for his continence rather than to Hippolytus the son of Theseus, for the latter insulted Aphrodite; and that perhaps is why he never fell a victim to the tender passion, and why love never ran riot in his soul; but he was allotted an austere and unbending nature. But our friend here admits that he is devoted to the goddess, and yet did not respond to his stepmother's guilty overtures, but went away in terror of the goddess herself, in case he were not on his guard against another's evil passions; and the mere aversion to any one of the gods, such as Hippolytus entertained in regard to Aphrodite, I do not class as a form of sobriety; for it is a much greater proof of wisdom and sobriety to speak well of the gods, especially at Athens, where altars are set up in honor even of unknown gods. So great was the interest which he took in Timasion. Nevertheless he called him Hippolytus for the eyes with which he looked at his stepmother. It seemed also that he was a young man who was particular about his person and enhanced its charms by attention to athletic exercises." " None

9.17.3 To Genitor. I have received your letter in which you complain how offensive to you a really magnificent banquet was, owing to the fact that there were buffoons, dancers, and jesters going round from table to table. Ah ! will you never relax that severe frown of yours even a little ? For my own part, I do not provide any such entertainments like those, but I can put up with those who do. Why then do I not provide them myself? For this reason, that if any dancer makes a lewd movement, if a buffoon is impudent, or a jester makes a senseless fool of himself, it does not amuse me a whit, for I see no novelty or fun in it. I am not giving you a high moral reason, but am only telling you my individual taste. Yet think how many people there are who would regard with disfavour, as partly insipid and partly wearisome, the entertainments which charm and attract you and me. When a reader, or a musician, or a comic actor enters the banqueting-room, how many there are who call for their shoes or lie back on their couches just as completely bored as you were, when you endured what you describe as those monstrosities ! Let us then make allowances for what pleases other people, so that we may induce others to make allowances for us ! Farewell. '' None

6.1.1 Leucania: After the mouth of the Silaris one comes to Leucania, and to the sanctuary of the Argoan Hera, built by Jason, and near by, within fifty stadia, to Poseidonia. Thence, sailing out past the gulf, one comes to Leucosia, an island, from which it is only a short voyage across to the continent. The island is named after one of the Sirens, who was cast ashore here after the Sirens had flung themselves, as the myth has it, into the depths of the sea. In front of the island lies that promontory which is opposite the Sirenussae and with them forms the Poseidonian Gulf. On doubling this promontory one comes immediately to another gulf, in which there is a city which was called Hyele by the Phocaeans who founded it, and by others Ele, after a certain spring, but is called by the men of today Elea. This is the native city of Parmenides and Zeno, the Pythagorean philosophers. It is my opinion that not only through the influence of these men but also in still earlier times the city was well governed; and it was because of this good government that the people not only held their own against the Leucani and the Poseidoniatae, but even returned victorious, although they were inferior to them both in extent of territory and in population. At any rate, they are compelled, on account of the poverty of their soil, to busy themselves mostly with the sea and to establish factories for the salting of fish, and other such industries. According to Antiochus, after the capture of Phocaea by Harpagus, the general of Cyrus, all the Phocaeans who could do so embarked with their entire families on their light boats and, under the leadership of Creontiades, sailed first to Cyrnus and Massalia, but when they were beaten off from those places founded Elea. Some, however, say that the city took its name from the River Elees. It is about two hundred stadia distant from Poseidonia. After Elea comes the promontory of Palinurus. off the territory of Elea are two islands, the Oinotrides, which have anchoring-places. After Palinurus comes Pyxus — a cape, harbor, and river, for all three have the same name. Pyxus was peopled with new settlers by Micythus, the ruler of the Messene in Sicily, but all the settlers except a few sailed away again. After Pyxus comes another gulf, and also Laus — a river and city; it is the last of the Leucanian cities, lying only a short distance above the sea, is a colony of the Sybaritae, and the distance thither from Elea is four hundred stadia. The whole voyage along the coast of Leucania is six hundred and fifty stadia. Near Laus is the hero-sanctuary of Draco, one of the companions of Odysseus, in regard to which the following oracle was given out to the Italiotes: Much people will one day perish about Laian Draco. 6 And the oracle came true, for, deceived by it, the peoples who made campaigns against Laus, that is, the Greek inhabitants of Italy, met disaster at the hands of the Leucani. ^6.1.15 Next in order comes Metapontium, which is one hundred and forty stadia from the naval station of Heracleia. It is said to have been founded by the Pylians who sailed from Troy with Nestor; and they so prospered from farming, it is said, that they dedicated a golden harvest at Delphi. And writers produce as a sign of its having been founded by the Pylians the sacrifice to the shades of the sons of Neleus. However, the city was wiped out by the Samnitae. According to Antiochus: Certain of the Achaeans were sent for by the Achaeans in Sybaris and resettled the place, then forsaken, but they were summoned only because of a hatred which the Achaeans who had been banished from Laconia had for the Tarantini, in order that the neighboring Tarantini might not pounce upon the place; there were two cities, but since, of the two, Metapontium was nearer to Taras, the newcomers were persuaded by the Sybarites to take Metapontium and hold it, for, if they held this, they would also hold the territory of Siris, whereas, if they turned to the territory of Siris, they would add Metapontium to the territory of the Tarantini, which latter was on the very flank of Metapontium; and when, later on, the Metapontians were at war with the Tarantini and the Oinotrians of the interior, a reconciliation was effected in regard to a portion of the land — that portion, indeed, which marked the boundary between the Italy of that time and Iapygia. Here, too, the fabulous accounts place Metapontus, and also Melanippe the prisoner and her son Boeotus. In the opinion of Antiochus, the city Metapontium was first called Metabum and later on its name was slightly altered, and further, Melanippe was brought, not to Metabus, but to Dius, as is proved by a hero-sanctuary of Metabus, and also by Asius the poet, when he says that Boeotus was brought forth in the halls of Dius by shapely Melanippe, meaning that Melanippe was brought to Dius, not to Metabus. But, as Ephorus says, the colonizer of Metapontium was Daulius, the tyrant of the Crisa which is near Delphi. And there is this further account, that the man who was sent by the Achaeans to help colonize it was Leucippus, and that after procuring the use of the place from the Tarantini for only a day and night he would not give it back, replying by day to those who asked it back that he had asked and taken it for the next night also, and by night that he had taken and asked it also for the next day. Next in order comes Taras and Iapygia; but before discussing them I shall, in accordance with my original purpose, give a general description of the islands that lie in front of Italy; for as from time to time I have named also the islands which neighbor upon the several tribes, so now, since I have traversed Oinotria from beginning to end, which alone the people of earlier times called Italy, it is right that I should preserve the same order in traversing Sicily and the islands round about it.' "^13.1.27 Also the Ilium of today was a kind of village-city when the Romans first set foot on Asia and expelled Antiochus the Great from the country this side of Taurus. At any rate, Demetrius of Scepsis says that, when as a lad he visited the city about that time, he found the settlement so neglected that the buildings did not so much as have tiled roofs. And Hegesianax says that when the Galatae crossed over from Europe they needed a stronghold and went up into the city for that reason, but left it at once because of its lack of walls. But later it was greatly improved. And then it was ruined again by the Romans under Fimbria, who took it by siege in the course of the Mithridatic war. Fimbria had been sent as quaestor with Valerius Flaccus the consul when the latter was appointed to the command against Mithridates; but Fimbria raised a mutiny and slew the consul in the neighborhood of Bithynia, and was himself set up as lord of the army; and when he advanced to Ilium, the Ilians would not admit him, as being a brigand, and therefore he applied force and captured the place on the eleventh day. And when he boasted that he himself had overpowered on the eleventh day the city which Agamemnon had only with difficulty captured in the tenth year, although the latter had with him on his expedition the fleet of a thousand vessels and the whole of Greece, one of the Ilians said: Yes, for the city's champion was no Hector. Now Sulla came over and overthrew Fimbria, and on terms of agreement sent Mithridates away to his homeland, but he also consoled the Ilians by numerous improvements. In my time, however, the deified Caesar was far more thoughtful of them, at the same time also emulating the example of Alexander; for Alexander set out to provide for them on the basis of a renewal of ancient kinship, and also because at the same time he was fond of Homer; at any rate, we are told of a recension of the poetry of Homer, the Recension of the Casket, as it is called, which Alexander, along with Callisthenes and Anaxarchus, perused and to a certain extent annotated, and then deposited in a richly wrought casket which he had found amongst the Persian treasures. Accordingly, it was due both to his zeal for the poet and to his descent from the Aeacidae who reigned as kings of the Molossians — where, as we are also told, Andromache, who had been the wife of Hector, reigned as queen — that Alexander was kindly disposed towards the Ilians. But Caesar, not only being fond of Alexander, but also having better known evidences of kinship with the Ilians, felt encouraged to bestow kindness upon them with all the zest of youth: better known evidences, first, because he was a Roman, and because the Romans believe Aeneias to have been their original founder; and secondly, because the name Iulius was derived from that of a certain Iulus who was one of his ancestors, and this Iulus got his appellation from the Iulus who was one of the descendants of Aeneas. Caesar therefore allotted territory to them end also helped them to preserve their freedom and their immunity from taxation; and to this day they remain in possession of these favors. But that this is not the site of the ancient Ilium, if one considers the matter in accordance with Homer's account, is inferred from the following considerations. But first I must give a general description of the region in question, beginning at that point on the coast where I left off."' None

8.14.1 The elder Africanus wished the effigy of Ennius to be placed among the monuments of the Cornelian family, because he thought that his deeds had been illuminated by the poet's genius. He was aware, that as long as the Roman empire might flourish, and Africa lay captive at the feet of Italy, and the Capitol possessed the peak of the whole world, the memory of his deeds could not be extinguished; but he also thought it important that they were lit up by the rays of learning. He was a man more worthy of praise from Homer, than of a clumsy and unpolished eulogy."" None

1.1 Arma virumque cano, Troiae qui primus ab oris ^1.3 litora, multum ille et terris iactatus et alto ^1.4 vi superum saevae memorem Iunonis ob iram; ^1.39 Quippe vetor fatis. Pallasne exurere classem ^1.259 moenia, sublimemque feres ad sidera caeli ^1.260 magimum Aenean; neque me sententia vertit. ^1.266 ternaque transierint Rutulis hiberna subactis. ^1.453 Namque sub ingenti lustrat dum singula templo, ^1.454 reginam opperiens, dum, quae fortuna sit urbi, ^1.455 artificumque manus inter se operumque laborem ^1.456 miratur, videt Iliacas ex ordine pugnas, ^1.457 bellaque iam fama totum volgata per orbem, ^1.458 Atridas, Priamumque, et saevum ambobus Achillem. ^1.459 Constitit, et lacrimans, Quis iam locus inquit Achate, ^1.461 En Priamus! Sunt hic etiam sua praemia laudi; ^1.462 sunt lacrimae rerum et mentem mortalia tangunt. ^1.463 Solve metus; feret haec aliquam tibi fama salutem. ^1.464 Sic ait, atque animum pictura pascit ii, ^1.465 multa gemens, largoque umectat flumine voltum. ^1.466 Namque videbat, uti bellantes Pergama circum ^1.467 hac fugerent Graii, premeret Troiana iuventus, ^1.468 hac Phryges, instaret curru cristatus Achilles. ^1.469 Nec procul hinc Rhesi niveis tentoria velis ^1.470 adgnoscit lacrimans, primo quae prodita somno ^1.471 Tydides multa vastabat caede cruentus, ^1.472 ardentisque avertit equos in castra, prius quam ^1.473 pabula gustassent Troiae Xanthumque bibissent. ^1.474 Parte alia fugiens amissis Troilus armis, ^1.475 infelix puer atque impar congressus Achilli, ^1.476 fertur equis, curruque haeret resupinus ii, ^1.477 lora tenens tamen; huic cervixque comaeque trahuntur ^1.478 per terram, et versa pulvis inscribitur hasta. ^1.479 Interea ad templum non aequae Palladis ibant ^1.480 crinibus Iliades passis peplumque ferebant, ^1.481 suppliciter tristes et tunsae pectora palmis; ^1.482 diva solo fixos oculos aversa tenebat. ^1.483 Ter circum Iliacos raptaverat Hectora muros, ^1.484 exanimumque auro corpus vendebat Achilles. ^1.485 Tum vero ingentem gemitum dat pectore ab imo, ^1.486 ut spolia, ut currus, utque ipsum corpus amici, ^1.487 tendentemque manus Priamum conspexit inermis. ^1.488 Se quoque principibus permixtum adgnovit Achivis, ^1.489 Eoasque acies et nigri Memnonis arma. ^1.490 Ducit Amazonidum lunatis agmina peltis ^1.491 Penthesilea furens, mediisque in milibus ardet, ^1.492 aurea subnectens exsertae cingula mammae, ^1.493 bellatrix, audetque viris concurrere virgo. ^1.495 dum stupet, obtutuque haeret defixus in uno, ^1.498 Qualis in Eurotae ripis aut per iuga Cynthi ^1.499 exercet Diana choros, quam mille secutae ^1.500 hinc atque hinc glomerantur oreades; illa pharetram ^1.501 fert umero, gradiensque deas supereminet omnis: ^1.502 Latonae tacitum pertemptant gaudia pectus: ^1.588 Restitit Aeneas claraque in luce refulsit, ^1.589 os umerosque deo similis; namque ipsa decoram ^1.590 caesariem nato genetrix lumenque iuventae ^1.591 purpureum et laetos oculis adflarat honores: ^1.592 quale manus addunt ebori decus, aut ubi flavo ^1.748 Nec non et vario noctem sermone trahebat ^1.749 infelix Dido, longumque bibebat amorem, ^1.750 multa super Priamo rogitans, super Hectore multa; ^1.751 nunc quibus Aurorae venisset filius armis, ^1.752 nunc quales Diomedis equi, nunc quantus Achilles. ^1.753 Immo age, et a prima dic, hospes, origine nobis ^1.754 insidias, inquit, Danaum, casusque tuorum, ^1.755 erroresque tuos; nam te iam septima portat ^1.756 omnibus errantem terris et fluctibus aestas.
2.3 Infandum, regina, iubes renovare dolorem, ^2.4 Troianas ut opes et lamentabile regnum ^2.5 eruerint Danai; quaeque ipse miserrima vidi, ^2.6 et quorum pars magna fui. Quis talia fando ^2.7 Myrmidonum Dolopumve aut duri miles Ulixi ^2.8 temperet a lacrimis? Et iam nox umida caelo ^2.259 laxat claustra Sinon. Illos patefactus ad auras ^2.261 Thessandrus Sthenelusque duces, et dirus Ulixes, ^2.263 Pelidesque Neoptolemus, primusque Machaon, ^2.264 et Menelaus, et ipse doli fabricator Epeos. ^2.274 Ei mihi, qualis erat, quantum mutatus ab illo ^2.275 Hectore, qui redit exuvias indutus Achilli, ^2.501 vidi Hecubam centumque nurus, Priamumque per aras ^2.502 sanguine foedantem, quos ipse sacraverat, ignis. ^2.533 Hic Priamus, quamquam in media iam morte tenetur, ^2.534 non tamen abstinuit, nec voci iraeque pepercit: ^2.536 di, si qua est caelo pietas, quae talia curet, ^2.537 persolvant grates dignas et praemia reddant ^2.538 debita, qui nati coram me cernere letum ^2.539 fecisti et patrios foedasti funere voltus. ^2.540 At non ille, satum quo te mentiris, Achilles ^2.541 talis in hoste fuit Priamo; sed iura fidemque ^2.542 supplicis erubuit, corpusque exsangue sepulchro ^2.543 reddidit Hectoreum, meque in mea regna remisit. ^2.544 Sic fatus senior, telumque imbelle sine ictu ^2.545 coniecit, rauco quod protinus aere repulsum ^2.546 e summo clipei nequiquam umbone pependit. ^2.547 Cui Pyrrhus: Referes ergo haec et nuntius ibis ^2.548 Pelidae genitori; illi mea tristia facta ^2.549 degeneremque Neoptolemum narrare memento. ^2.550 Nunc morere. Hoc dicens altaria ad ipsa trementem ^2.551 traxit et in multo lapsantem sanguine nati, ^2.552 implicuitque comam laeva, dextraque coruscum ^2.553 extulit, ac lateri capulo tenus abdidit ensem. ^2.554 Haec finis Priami fatorum; hic exitus illum ^2.555 sorte tulit, Troiam incensam et prolapsa videntem ^2.556 Pergama, tot quondam populis terrisque superbum ^2.557 regnatorem Asiae. Iacet ingens litore truncus, ^2.558 avolsumque umeris caput, et sine nomine corpus. ^2.590 obtulit et pura per noctem in luce refulsit ^2.762 custodes lecti Phoenix et dirus Ulixes ^3.95 prima tulit tellus, eadem vos ubere laeto ^3.96 accipiet reduces. Antiquam exquirite matrem: ^3.462 Vade age, et ingentem factis fer ad aethera Troiam. ^3.497 quaerenda. Effigiem Xanthi Troiamque videtis ^3.498 quam vestrae fecere manus, melioribus, opto, ^3.717 fata renarrabat divom, cursusque docebat. ^4.68 Uritur infelix Dido, totaque vagatur ^4.260 Aenean fundantem arces ac tecta novantem ^4.261 conspicit; atque illi stellatus iaspide fulva ^4.262 ensis erat, Tyrioque ardebat murice laena ^4.263 demissa ex umeris, dives quae munera Dido ^4.264 fecerat, et tenui telas discreverat auro. ^4.265 Continuo invadit: Tu nunc Karthaginis altae ^4.266 fundamenta locas, pulchramque uxorius urbem ^4.267 exstruis, heu regni rerumque oblite tuarum? ^5.174 oblitus decorisque sui sociumque salutis, ^5.340 Hic totum caveae consessum ingentis et ora ^5.341 prima patrum magnis Salius clamoribus implet, ^5.342 ereptumque dolo reddi sibi poscit honorem. ^5.344 gratior et pulchro veniens in corpore virtus. ^5.407 magimusque Anchisiades et pondus et ipsa ^5.485 Protinus Aeneas celeri certare sagitta ^5.486 invitat qui forte velint, et praemia ponit, ^5.487 ingentique manu malum de nave Seresti ^5.488 erigit, et volucrem traiecto in fune columbam, ^5.489 quo tendant ferrum, malo suspendit ab alto. ^5.490 Convenere viri, deiectamque aerea sortem ^5.491 accepit galea; et primus clamore secundo ^5.492 Hyrtacidae ante omnes exit locus Hippocoöntis; ^5.493 quem modo navali Mnestheus certamine victor ^5.494 consequitur, viridi Mnestheus evinctus oliva. ^5.495 Tertius Eurytion, tuus, o clarissime, frater, ^5.496 Pandare, qui quondam, iussus confundere foedus, ^5.497 in medios telum torsisti primus Achivos. ^5.498 Extremus galeaque ima subsedit Acestes, ^5.499 ausus et ipse manu iuvenum temptare laborem. ^5.500 Tum validis flexos incurvant viribus arcus ^5.501 pro se quisque viri, et depromunt tela pharetris. ^5.502 Primaque per caelum, nervo stridente, sagitta ^5.503 Hyrtacidae iuvenis volucres diverberat auras; ^5.504 et venit, adversique infigitur arbore mali. ^5.505 Intremuit malus, timuitque exterrita pennis ^5.506 ales, et ingenti sonuerunt omnia plausu. ^5.507 Post acer Mnestheus adducto constitit arcu, ^5.508 alta petens, pariterque oculos telumque tetendit. ^5.509 Ast ipsam miserandus avem contingere ferro ^5.510 non valuit: nodos et vincula linea rupit, ^5.511 quis innexa pedem malo pendebat ab alto: ^5.512 illa notos atque alta volans in nubila fugit. ^5.513 Tum rapidus, iamdudum arcu contenta parato ^5.514 tela tenens, fratrem Eurytion in Pota vocavit, ^5.515 iam vacuo laetam caelo speculatus, et alis ^5.516 plaudentem nigra figit sub nube columbam. ^5.517 Decidit exanimis, vitamque reliquit in astris ^5.518 aetheriis, fixamque refert delapsa sagittam. ^5.519 Amissa solus palma superabat Acestes; ^5.520 qui tamen aerias telum contendit in auras, ^5.521 ostentans artemque pater arcumque sotem. ^5.522 Hic oculis subito obicitur magnoque futurum ^5.523 augurio monstrum; docuit post exitus ingens, ^5.524 seraque terrifici cecinerunt omina vates. ^5.525 Namque volans liquidis in nubibus arsit harundo, ^5.526 signavitque viam flammis, tenuisque recessit ^5.527 consumpta in ventos, caelo ceu saepe refixa ^5.528 transcurrunt crinemque volantia sidera ducunt. ^5.529 Attonitis haesere animis, superosque precati ^5.530 Trinacrii Teucrique viri; nec maximus omen ^5.531 abnuit Aeneas; sed laetum amplexus Acesten ^5.532 muneribus cumulat magnis, ac talia fatur: ^5.533 Sume, pater; nam te voluit rex magnus Olympi ^5.534 talibus auspiciis exsortem ducere honores. ^5.535 Ipsius Anchisae longaevi hoc munus habebis, ^5.536 cratera impressum signis, quem Thracius olim ^5.537 Anchisae genitori in magno munere Cisseus ^5.538 ferre sui dederat monumentum et pignus amoris. ^5.539 Sic fatus cingit viridanti tempora lauro, ^5.540 et primum ante omnes victorem appellat Acesten. ^5.541 Nec bonus Eurytion praelato invidit honori, ^5.542 quamvis solus avem caelo deiecit ab alto. ^5.592 haud alio Teucrum nati vestigia cursu ^5.593 impediunt texuntque fugas et proelia ludo, ^5.613 At procul in sola secretae Troades acta ^5.614 amissum Anchisen flebant, cunctaeque profundum ^5.615 pontum adspectabant flentes. Heu tot vada fessis ^6.18 Redditus his primum terris, tibi, Phoebe, sacravit ^6.20 In foribus letum Androgeo: tum pendere poenas ^6.21 Cecropidae iussi—miserum!—septena quotannis ^6.22 corpora natorum; stat ductis sortibus urna. ^6.23 Contra elata mari respondet Gnosia tellus: ^6.24 hic crudelis amor tauri, suppostaque furto ^6.25 Pasiphaë, mixtumque genus prolesque biformis ^6.26 Minotaurus inest, Veneris monumenta nefandae; ^6.27 hic labor ille domus et inextricabilis error; ^6.28 magnum reginae sed enim miseratus amorem ^6.29 Daedalus ipse dolos tecti ambagesque resolvit, ^6.30 caeca regens filo vestigia.

1.1 Arms and the man I sing, who first made way, ^1.3 to Italy, the blest Lavinian strand. ^1.4 Smitten of storms he was on land and sea ^1.39 its griefs and wrongs: the choice by Paris made; ^1.259 lay seven huge forms, one gift for every ship. ^1.260 Then back to shore he sped, and to his friends ^1.266 “Companions mine, we have not failed to feel ' "^1.453 art thou bright Phoebus' sister? Or some nymph, " "^1.454 the daughter of a god? Whate'er thou art, " '^1.455 thy favor we implore, and potent aid ^1.456 in our vast toil. Instruct us of what skies, ' "^1.457 or what world's end, our storm-swept lives have found! " '^1.458 Strange are these lands and people where we rove, ^1.459 compelled by wind and wave. Lo, this right hand ^1.461 Then Venus: “Nay, I boast not to receive ^1.462 honors divine. We Tyrian virgins oft ^1.463 bear bow and quiver, and our ankles white ^1.464 lace up in purple buskin. Yonder lies ^1.465 the Punic power, where Tyrian masters hold ' "^1.466 Agenor's town; but on its borders dwell " '^1.467 the Libyans, by battles unsubdued. ^1.468 Upon the throne is Dido, exiled there ' "^1.469 from Tyre, to flee th' unnatural enmity " "^1.470 of her own brother. 'T was an ancient wrong; " '^1.471 too Iong the dark and tangled tale would be; ^1.472 I trace the larger outline of her story: ^1.473 Sichreus was her spouse, whose acres broad ^1.474 no Tyrian lord could match, and he was-blessed ' "^1.475 by his ill-fated lady's fondest love, " '^1.476 whose father gave him her first virgin bloom ^1.477 in youthful marriage. But the kingly power ^1.478 among the Tyrians to her brother came, ^1.479 Pygmalion, none deeper dyed in crime ^1.480 in all that land. Betwixt these twain there rose ^1.481 a deadly hatred,—and the impious wretch, ^1.482 blinded by greed, and reckless utterly ' "^1.483 of his fond sister's joy, did murder foul " '^1.484 upon defenceless and unarmed Sichaeus, ^1.485 and at the very altar hewed him down. ^1.486 Long did he hide the deed, and guilefully ^1.487 deceived with false hopes, and empty words, ^1.488 her grief and stricken love. But as she slept, ' "^1.489 her husband's tombless ghost before her came, " '^1.490 with face all wondrous pale, and he laid bare ^1.491 his heart with dagger pierced, disclosing so ^1.492 the blood-stained altar and the infamy ^1.493 that darkened now their house. His counsel was ' "^1.495 and for her journey's aid, he whispered where " ^1.498 Dido, assembling her few trusted friends, ^1.499 prepared her flight. There rallied to her cause ^1.500 all who did hate and scorn the tyrant king, ^1.501 or feared his cruelty. They seized his ships, ^1.502 which haply rode at anchor in the bay, ^1.588 the bastioned gates; the uproar of the throng. ^1.589 The Tyrians toil unwearied; some up-raise ^1.590 a wall or citadel, from far below ^1.591 lifting the ponderous stone; or with due care ^1.592 choose where to build, and close the space around ^1.748 our ships did fare; but with swift-rising flood ' "^1.749 the stormful season of Orion's star " '^1.750 drove us on viewless shoals; and angry gales ^1.751 dispersed us, smitten by the tumbling surge, ^1.752 among innavigable rocks. Behold, ^1.753 we few swam hither, waifs upon your shore! ^1.754 What race of mortals this? What barbarous land, ^1.755 that with inhospitable laws ye thrust ^1.756 a stranger from your coasts, and fly to arms, ^2.3 Father Aeneas with these words began :— ^2.4 A grief unspeakable thy gracious word, ' "^2.5 o sovereign lady, bids my heart live o'er: " "^2.6 how Asia 's glory and afflicted throne " '^2.7 the Greek flung down; which woeful scene I saw, ^2.8 and bore great part in each event I tell. ^2.259 of jointed beams, and rear it heavenward, ^2.261 inside your walls, nor anywise restore ' "^2.263 For had your hands Minerva's gift profaned, " '^2.264 a ruin horrible—O, may the gods ^2.274 nor mountain-bred Achilles could prevail, ' "^2.275 nor ten years' war, nor fleets a thousand strong. " ^2.501 thus, all unchallenged, hailed us as his own : ^2.502 “Haste, heroes! Are ye laggards at this hour? ^2.533 eeking their safe ships and the friendly shore. ^2.534 Some cowards foul went clambering back again ^2.536 But woe is me! If gods their help withhold, ' "^2.537 't is impious to be brave. That very hour " '^2.538 the fair Cassandra passed us, bound in chains, ' "^2.539 King Priam's virgin daughter, from the shrine " '^2.540 and altars of Minerva; her loose hair ^2.541 had lost its fillet; her impassioned eyes ^2.542 were lifted in vain prayer,—her eyes alone! ^2.543 For chains of steel her frail, soft hands confined. ' "^2.544 Coroebus' eyes this horror not endured, " '^2.545 and, sorrow-crazed, he plunged him headlong in ^2.546 the midmost fray, self-offered to be slain, ^2.547 while in close mass our troop behind him poured. ^2.548 But, at this point, the overwhelming spears ^2.549 of our own kinsmen rained resistless down ^2.550 from a high temple-tower; and carnage wild ^2.551 ensued, because of the Greek arms we bore ^2.552 and our false crests. The howling Grecian band, ' "^2.553 crazed by Cassandra's rescue, charged at us " '^2.554 from every side; Ajax of savage soul, ^2.555 the sons of Atreus, and that whole wild horde ^2.556 Achilles from Dolopian deserts drew. ' "^2.557 'T was like the bursting storm, when gales contend, " '^2.558 west wind and South, and jocund wind of morn ^2.590 The Greek besiegers to the roof-tops fled; ^2.762 I stood there sole surviving; when, behold, ^3.95 Our Ilian women wailed with loosened hair; ^3.96 new milk was sprinkled from a foaming cup, ^3.462 I, the slave-wife, to Helenus was given, ^3.497 while favoring breezes beckoned us to sea, ^3.498 and swelled the waiting canvas as they blew. ^3.717 with hand at ear he caught each airy gust ^4.68 how far may not our Punic fame extend ^4.260 an equal number of vociferous tongues, ^4.261 foul, whispering lips, and ears, that catch at all. ' "^4.262 At night she spreads midway 'twixt earth and heaven " '^4.263 her pinions in the darkness, hissing loud, ' "^4.264 nor e'er to happy slumber gives her eyes: " '^4.265 but with the morn she takes her watchful throne ^4.266 high on the housetops or on lofty towers, ^4.267 to terrify the nations. She can cling ^5.174 mantle the stars; but when the deep is calm, ^5.340 where, pictured in the woof, young Ganymede ' "^5.341 through Ida's forest chased the light-foot deer " '^5.342 with javelin; all flushed and panting he. ^5.344 and his strong talons snatched from Ida far ^5.407 bright-tipped with burnished steel, and battle-axe ^5.485 Straightway, in all his pride of giant strength, ^5.486 Dares Ioomed up, and wondering murmurs ran ^5.487 along the gazing crowd; for he alone ^5.488 was wont to match with Paris, he it was ^5.489 met Butes, the huge-bodied champion ^5.490 boasting the name and race of Amycus, ^5.491 Bythinian-born; him felled he at a blow, ^5.492 and stretched him dying on the tawny sand. ^5.493 Such Dares was, who now held high his head, ^5.494 fierce for the fray, bared both his shoulders broad, ^5.495 lunged out with left and right, and beat the air. ^5.496 Who shall his rival be? of all the throng ^5.497 not one puts on the gauntlets, or would face ' "^5.498 the hero's challenge. Therefore, striding forth, " '^5.499 believing none now dare but yield the palm, ^5.500 he stood before Aeneas, and straightway ' "^5.501 eized with his left hand the bull's golden horn, " '^5.502 and cried, “O goddess-born, if no man dares ^5.503 to risk him in this fight, how Iong delay? ^5.504 how Iong beseems it I should stand and wait? ^5.505 Bid me bear off my prize.” The Trojans all ^5.506 murmured assent, and bade the due award ^5.507 of promised gift. But with a brow severe ^5.508 Acestes to Entellus at his side ^5.509 addressed upbraiding words, where they reclined ^5.510 on grassy bank and couch of pleasant green: ^5.511 “O my Entellus, in the olden days ^5.512 bravest among the mighty, but in vain! ^5.513 Endurest thou to see yon reward won ^5.514 without a blow? Where, prithee, is that god ^5.515 who taught thee? Are thy tales of Eryx vain? ^5.516 Does all Sicilia praise thee? Is thy roof ^5.517 with trophies hung?” The other in reply: ^5.518 “My jealous honor and good name yield not ^5.519 to fear. But age, so cold and slow to move, ^5.520 makes my blood laggard, and my ebbing powers ^5.521 in all my body are but slack and chill. ^5.522 O, if I had what yonder ruffian boasts— ^5.523 my own proud youth once more! I would not ask ^5.524 the fair bull for a prize, nor to the lists ^5.525 in search of gifts come forth.” So saying, he threw ^5.526 into the mid-arena a vast pair ^5.527 of ponderous gauntlets, which in former days ^5.528 fierce Eryx for his fights was wont to bind ^5.529 on hand and arm, with the stiff raw-hide thong. ' "^5.530 All marvelled; for a weight of seven bulls' hides " '^5.531 was pieced with lead and iron. Dares stared ^5.532 astonished, and step after step recoiled; ' "^5.533 high-souled Anchises' son, this way and that, " "^5.534 turned o'er the enormous coil of knots and thongs; " '^5.535 then with a deep-drawn breath the veteran spoke: ^5.536 “O, that thy wondering eyes had seen the arms ^5.537 of Hercules, and what his gauntlets were! ^5.538 Would thou hadst seen the conflict terrible ^5.539 upon this self-same shore! These arms were borne ' "^5.540 by Eryx . Look; thy brother's!—spattered yet " '^5.541 with blood, with dashed-out brains! In these he stood ^5.542 when he matched Hercules. I wore them oft ^5.592 rushed fiercer to the fight, his strength now roused ^5.593 by rage, while shame and courage confident ^5.613 the helmet and the sword—but left behind ' "^5.614 Entellus' prize of victory, the bull. " '^5.615 He, then, elate and glorying, spoke forth: ^6.18 Prophetic gifts, unfolding things to come. ^6.20 Here Daedalus, the ancient story tells, ' "^6.21 Escaping Minos' power, and having made " '^6.22 Hazard of heaven on far-mounting wings, ^6.23 Floated to northward, a cold, trackless way, ' "^6.24 And lightly poised, at last, o'er Cumae 's towers. " '^6.25 Here first to earth come down, he gave to thee ^6.26 His gear of wings, Apollo! and ordained ^6.27 Vast temples to thy name and altars fair. ' "^6.28 On huge bronze doors Androgeos' death was done; " "^6.29 And Cecrops' children paid their debt of woe, " '^6.30 Where, seven and seven,—0 pitiable sight!— ^6.31 The youths and maidens wait the annual doom, ^6.32 Drawn out by lot from yonder marble urn. ^6.33 Beyond, above a sea, lay carven Crete :— ^6.89 (Which asks no kingdom save what Fate decrees) ^6.93 Then unto Phoebus and his sister pale ^6.94 A temple all of marble shall be given, ^6.126 Through Italy ; the cause of so much ill ' "^6.469 So blind they were!—a wrecker's prize and spoil. " ^6.489 But heed my words, and in thy memory ^6.490 Cherish and keep, to cheer this evil time. ^6.491 Lo, far and wide, led on by signs from Heaven, ^6.492 Thy countrymen from many a templed town ^6.493 Shall consecrate thy dust, and build thy tomb, ' "^6.756 And Jove's own fire. In chariot of four steeds, " '^6.757 Brandishing torches, he triumphant rode ' "^6.758 Through throngs of Greeks, o'er Elis ' sacred way, " '^6.759 Demanding worship as a god. 0 fool! ' "^6.760 To mock the storm's inimitable flash— " '^6.761 With crash of hoofs and roll of brazen wheel! ^6.762 But mightiest Jove from rampart of thick cloud ^6.763 Hurled his own shaft, no flickering, mortal flame, ^6.764 And in vast whirl of tempest laid him low. ^6.765 Next unto these, on Tityos I looked, ^6.766 Child of old Earth, whose womb all creatures bears: ^6.791 What forms of woe they feel, what fateful shape ' "^6.792 of retribution hath o'erwhelmed them there. " '^6.793 Some roll huge boulders up; some hang on wheels, ^6.794 Lashed to the whirling spokes; in his sad seat ^6.795 Theseus is sitting, nevermore to rise; ^6.796 Unhappy Phlegyas uplifts his voice ^6.797 In warning through the darkness, calling loud, ^6.798 ‘0, ere too late, learn justice and fear God!’ ^6.799 Yon traitor sold his country, and for gold ^6.800 Enchained her to a tyrant, trafficking ^6.801 In laws, for bribes enacted or made void; ^6.802 Another did incestuously take ^6.803 His daughter for a wife in lawless bonds. ^6.804 All ventured some unclean, prodigious crime; ^6.805 And what they dared, achieved. I could not tell, ^6.806 Not with a hundred mouths, a hundred tongues, ^6.807 Or iron voice, their divers shapes of sin, ^6.836 Or smites with ivory point his golden lyre. ^6.837 Here Trojans be of eldest, noblest race, ^6.838 Great-hearted heroes, born in happier times, ^6.839 Ilus, Assaracus, and Dardanus, ^6.840 Illustrious builders of the Trojan town. ^6.860 And each bright brow a snow-white fillet wears. ^6.861 Unto this host the Sibyl turned, and hailed ^6.862 Musaeus, midmost of a numerous throng, ' "^6.863 Who towered o'er his peers a shoulder higher: " '^6.864 “0 spirits blest! 0 venerable bard! ^6.865 Declare what dwelling or what region holds ^6.866 Anchises, for whose sake we twain essayed ^6.867 Yon passage over the wide streams of hell.” ^6.868 And briefly thus the hero made reply: ^6.869 “No fixed abode is ours. In shadowy groves ' "^7.651 Ascanius, eager for a hunter's praise, " ^7.763 debase our ancient, royal blood—and I ^7.764 be spurned upon the threshold?” Then drew near ^7.765 the men whose frenzied women-folk had held ^7.766 bacchantic orgies in the pathless grove, ' "^7.783 and on th' unheeding air: “Alas,” said he, " '^7.784 “My doom is shipwreck, and the tempest bears ^7.785 my bark away! O wretches, your own blood ^7.786 hall pay the forfeit for your impious crime. ^7.787 O Turnus! O abominable deed! ^7.788 Avenging woes pursue thee; to deaf gods ^7.789 thy late and unavailing prayer shall rise. ^7.790 Now was my time to rest. But as I come ' "^7.791 close to my journey's end, thou spoilest me " '^7.792 of comfort in my death.” With this the King ^8.189 But thy progenitor was Mercury, ^8.196 no envoys have I sent, nor tried thy mind ^8.197 with artful first approaches, but myself, ^8.301 the cavern door, and broken the big chains, ^8.521 wift as the glittering shaft of thunder cleaves ^8.685 Therefore go forth, O bravest chief and King ^8.686 of Troy and Italy ! To thee I give ^8.687 the hope and consolation of our throne, ^8.688 pallas, my son, and bid him find in thee ^8.689 a master and example, while he learns ' "^8.690 the soldier's arduous toil. With thy brave deeds " '^8.691 let him familiar grow, and reverence thee ^8.692 with youthful love and honor. In his train ^8.693 two hundred horsemen of Arcadia, ^8.694 our choicest men-at-arms, shall ride; and he ^8.695 in his own name an equal band shall bring ^8.696 to follow only thee.” Such the discourse. ^8.697 With meditative brows and downcast eyes ^8.698 Aeneas and Achates, sad at heart, ^8.699 mused on unnumbered perils yet to come. ' "^8.700 But out of cloudless sky Cythera's Queen " "^8.701 gave sudden signal: from th' ethereal dome " '^8.702 a thunder-peal and flash of quivering fire ^8.703 tumultuous broke, as if the world would fall, ^8.704 and bellowing Tuscan trumpets shook the air. ^8.705 All eyes look up. Again and yet again ^8.706 crashed the terrible din, and where the sky ^8.707 looked clearest hung a visionary cloud, ^8.708 whence through the brightness blazed resounding arms. ' "^8.709 All hearts stood still. But Troy 's heroic son " '^8.710 knew that his mother in the skies redeemed ^8.711 her pledge in sound of thunder: so he cried, ^8.712 “Seek not, my friend, seek not thyself to read ' "^8.713 the meaning of the omen. 'T is to me " ^9.59 his laggard host, and, leading in his train ^9.60 a score of chosen knights, dashed into view ^9.61 hard by the walls. A barb of Thracian breed ^9.62 dappled with white he rode; a crimson plume ^9.63 flamed over his golden helmet. “Who,” he cries, ^9.64 “Is foremost at the foe? Who follows me? ^9.66 a javelin, provoking instant war: ^9.307 a neighboring watch, who, bringing prompt relief, ^9.327 Princes of Teucria, with impartial mind, ^9.359 by great Assaracus, and every shrine ^9.360 of venerable Vesta, I confide ^9.361 my hopes, my fortunes, and all future weal ^9.362 to your heroic hearts. O, bring me back ^9.363 my father! Set him in these eyes once more! ^9.364 That day will tears be dry; and I will give ' "^9.365 two silver wine-cups graven and o'erlaid " '^9.366 with clear-cut figures, which my father chose ' "^9.369 and ancient wine-bowl, Tyrian Dido's token. " ^9.435 through midnight shades, to where their foemen lie ^9.436 encamped in arms; of whom, before these fall, ^9.437 a host shall die. Along the turf were seen, ^9.444 “Now boldly strike. The hour to do the deed ^9.446 that no man smite behind us. I myself ^9.447 will mow the mighty fieid, and lead thee on ^9.448 in a wide swath of slaughter.” With this word ^9.449 he shut his lips; and hurled him with his sword ^9.481 the youth thrust home his sword, then drew it back ^9.482 death-dripping, while the bursting purple stream ^9.483 of life outflowed, with mingling blood and wine. ^9.484 Then, flushed with stealthy slaughter, he crept near ^9.485 the followers of Messapus, where he saw ^9.486 their camp-fire dying down, and tethered steeds ^9.487 upon the meadow feeding. Nisus then ^9.488 knew the hot lust of slaughter had swept on ^9.489 too far, and cried, “Hold off! For, lo, ^9.490 the monitory dawn is nigh. Revenge ^9.491 has fed us to the full. We have achieved ^9.492 clean passage through the foe.” Full many a prize ^9.493 was left untaken: princely suits of mail ^9.494 enwrought with silver pure, huge drinking-bowls, ^9.495 and broideries fair. Yet grasped Euryalus ' "^9.496 the blazonry at Rhamnes' corselet hung, " '^9.497 and belt adorned with gold: which were a gift ^9.717 Here grim Mezentius, terrible to see, ^9.718 waved an Etrurian pine, and made his war ^9.719 with smoking firebrands; there, in equal rage, ' "^9.720 Messapus, the steed-tamer, Neptune's son, " '^9.721 ripped down the palisade, and at the breach ^9.723 Aid, O Calliope, the martial song! ^9.724 Tell me what carnage and how many deaths ^9.725 the sword of Turnus wrought: what peer in arms ^9.726 each hero to the world of ghosts sent down. ^9.728 A tower was there, well-placed and looming large, ^9.729 with many a lofty bridge, which desperately ' "^9.730 th' Italians strove to storm, and strangely plied " '^9.731 besieging enginery to cast it down: ^9.732 the Trojans hurled back stones, or, standing close, ^9.733 flung through the loopholes a swift shower of spears. ^9.734 But Turnus launched a firebrand, and pierced ^9.735 the wooden wall with flame, which in the wind ^9.736 leaped larger, and devoured from floor to floor, ^9.737 burning each beam away. The trembling guards ^9.738 ought flight in vain; and while they crowded close ^9.739 into the side unkindled yet, the tower ^9.740 bowed its whole weight and fell, with sudden crash ^9.741 that thundered through the sky. Along the ground ^9.742 half dead the warriors fell (the crushing mass ^9.743 piled over them) by their own pointed spears ^9.744 pierced to the heart, or wounded mortally ^9.745 by cruel splinters of the wreck. Two men, ^9.746 Helenor one, and Lyeus at his side, ^9.747 alone get free. Helenor of the twain ^9.748 was a mere youth; the slave Lycymnia ^9.749 bore him in secret to the Lydian King, ^9.750 and, arming him by stealth, had sent away ^9.751 to serve the Trojan cause. One naked sword ^9.752 for arms had he, and on his virgin shield ^9.753 no blazon of renown; but when he saw ^9.754 the hosts of Turnus front him, and the lines ^9.755 this way and that of Latins closing round, — ^9.756 as a fierce, forest-creature, brought to bay ^9.757 in circling pack of huntsmen, shows its teeth ^9.758 against the naked spears, and scorning death ^9.759 leaps upward on the javelins,—even so, ^9.760 not loth to die, the youthful soldier flew ^9.761 traight at the centre of his foes, and where ^9.762 the shining swords looked thickest, there he sprung. ^9.763 But Lyeus, swifter-footed, forced his way ^9.764 past the opposing spears and made escape ^9.765 far as the ciity-wall, where he would fain ^9.766 clutch at the coping and climb up to clasp ^9.767 ome friend above: but Turnus, spear in hand, ^9.768 had hotly followed, and exulting loud ^9.769 thus taunted him, “Hadst thou the hope, rash fool, ^9.770 beyond this grasp to fly?” So, as he clung, ^9.771 he tore him down; and with him broke and fell ^9.772 a huge piece of the wall: not otherwise ^9.773 a frail hare, or a swan of snow-white wing, ^9.774 is clutched in eagle-talons, when the bird ^9.775 of Jove soars skyward with his prey; or tender lamb ^9.776 from bleating mother and the broken fold ^9.777 is stolen by the wolf of Mars. Wild shouts ^10.260 Nor thy renown may I forget, brave chief ^10.261 of the Ligurians, Cinyrus; nor thine, ^10.262 Cupavo, with few followers, thy crest ^10.271 on high, and sped in music through the stars. ^10.272 His son with bands of youthful peers urged on ^10.273 a galley with a Centaur for its prow, ' "^10.274 which loomed high o'er the waves, and seemed to hurl " '^10.275 a huge stone at the water, as the keel ^10.517 by evil stars; whom, as he tried to lift ^10.518 a heavy stone, the shaft of Pallas pierced ^10.519 where ribs and spine divide: backward he drew ^10.520 the clinging spear; But Hisbo from above ^10.532 cruel unlikeness Pallas wrought; thy head ^10.557 But the fierce warrior Halaesus next ^10.558 led on the charge, behind his skilful shield ^10.559 close-crouching. Ladon and Demodocus ^10.560 and Pheres he struck down; his glittering blade ' "^11.80 father's tears:—poor solace and too small " '^11.81 for grief so great, but due that mournful sire. ^11.82 Some busy them to build of osiers fine ^11.89 of color still undimmed and leaf unmarred; ^11.90 but from the breast of mother-earth no more ^11.492 and front thy own brave bosom to the foe. ^11.493 for, lo, that Turnus on his wedding day ^11.494 may win a princess, our cheap, common lives— ^1
1.495 we the mere mob, unwept, unsepulchred— ^11.496 must be spilled forth in battle! Thou, I say, ^11.497 if there be mettle in thee and some drops ^11.901 he smote Amastrus, son of Hippotas; ^12.4 gaze all his way, fierce rage implacable ^12.5 wells his high heart. As when on Libyan plain ^12.6 a lion, gashed along his tawny breast ' "^12.7 by the huntsman's grievous thrust, awakens him " '^12.8 unto his last grim fight, and gloriously ^12.64 who even now thy absence daily mourns ^12.65 in Ardea, his native land and thine.” ' "^12.66 But to this pleading Turnus' frenzied soul " '^12.67 yields not at all, but rather blazes forth ^12.68 more wildly, and his fever fiercer burns ' "^12.69 beneath the healer's hand. In answer he, " ^12.82 from these new terms of duel, wept aloud, ^1
2.327 those Trojan sons of Heaven making league ^12.439 and tremble not. My own hand shall confirm ^12.440 the solemn treaty. For these rites consign ^12.794 the King himself to parley; others fly ^12.795 to arms, and at the rampart make a stand. ' "^12.878 Scarce had he said, when through the foeman's line " ^12.931 o through the scattered legions Turnus ran ^12.932 traight to the city walls, where all the ground ^12.933 was drenched with blood, and every passing air ^12.934 hrieked with the noise of spears. His lifted hand ^12.935 made sign of silence as he loudly called: ^12.936 “Refrain, Rutulians! O ye Latins all, ' "^12.941 But Sire Aeneas, hearing Turnus' name, " '^12.942 down the steep rampart from the citadel ^12.943 unlingering tried, all lesser task laid by, ^12.944 with joy exultant and dread-thundering arms. ' "^12.945 Like Athos ' crest he loomed, or soaring top " '^12.946 of Eryx, when the nodding oaks resound, ^12.947 or sovereign Apennine that lifts in air ^12.948 his forehead of triumphant snow. All eyes ^12.949 of Troy, Rutulia, and Italy ^12.950 were fixed his way; and all who kept a guard ^12.951 on lofty rampart, or in siege below ' ' None
