1.527 Sacred father here: Vesta, receive the gods of Troy! 1.528 In time the same hand will guard the world and you, 1.529 And a god in person will hold the sacred rites. 1.530 The safety of the country will lie with Augustus’ house:

3.697 Our leader, when Vesta spoke from her pure hearth: 3.698 Don’t hesitate to recall them: he was my priest, 3.699 And those sacrilegious hands sought me with their blades. 3.700 I snatched him away, and left a naked semblance: 3.701 What died by the steel, was Caesar’s shadow.’ 3.702 Raised to the heavens he found Jupiter’s halls,
4.949 At her kinsman’s threshold: so the Senators justly decreed. 4.950 Phoebus takes part of the space there: a further part remain 4.951 For Vesta, and the third part that’s left, Caesar occupies. 4.952 Long live the laurels of the Palatine: long live that house 4.953 Decked with branches of oak: one place holds three eternal gods.
5.195 So I spoke. So the goddess responded to my question, 5.196 (While she spoke, her lips breathed out vernal roses):
5.226 And a lament remains written on its petals.
5.279 ‘Goddess’, I replied: ‘What’s the origin of the games?’ 5.280 I’d barely ended when she answered me: 5.281 ‘Rich men owned cattle or tracts of land, 5.282 Other means of wealth were then unknown, 5.283 So the words ‘rich’ (locuples) from ‘landed’ (locus plenus), 5.284 And ‘money’ (pecunia) from ‘a flock’ (pecus), but already 5.285 Some had unlawful wealth: by custom, for ages, 5.286 Public lands were grazed, without penalty. 5.287 Folk had no one to defend the common rights: 5.288 Till at last it was foolish to use private grazing. 5.289 This licence was pointed out to the Publicii, 5.290 The plebeian aediles: earlier, men lacked confidence. 5.291 The case was tried before the people: the guilty fined: 5.292 And the champions praised for their public spirit. 5.293 A large part of the fine fell to me: and the victor 5.294 Instituted new games to loud applause. Part was allocated
5.307 Remember Meleager, burnt up by distant flames:
5.318 The countryside, cared nothing for fruitful gardens: 5.319 The lilies drooped: you could see the violets fade, 5.320 And the petals of the purple crocus languished. 5.321 often Zephyr said: ‘Don’t destroy your dowry.’ 5.322 But my dowry was worth nothing to me. 5.323 The olives were in blossom: wanton winds hurt them: 5.324 The wheat was ripening: hail blasted the crops: 5.325 The vines were promising: skies darkened from the south, 5.326 And the leaves were brought down by sudden rain. 5.327 I didn’t wish it so: I’m not cruel in my anger, 5.328 But I neglected to drive away these ills. 5.329 The Senate convened, and voted my godhead 5.330 An annual festival, if the year proved fruitful. 5.331 I accepted their vow. The consuls Laena
5.343 Nothing serious for those with garlanded brow, 5.344 No running water’s drunk, when crowned with flowers:
5.346 No one as yet cared to pluck the rose. 5.347 Bacchus loves flowers: you can see he delight 5.348 In a crown, from Ariadne’s chaplet of stars. 5.349 The comic stage suits her: she’s never: believe me, 5.350 Never been counted among the tragic goddesses. 5.351 The reason the crowd of whores celebrate these game 5.352 Is not a difficult one for us to discover. 5.353 The goddess isn’t gloomy, she’s not high-flown, 5.354 She wants her rites to be open to the common man, 5.355 And warns us to use life’s beauty while it’s in bloom: 5.356 The thorn is spurned when the rose has fallen. 5.357 Why is it, when white robes are handed out for Ceres, 5.358 Flora’s neatly dressed in a host of colours? 5.359 Is it because the harvest’s ripe when the ears whiten, 5.360 But flowers are of every colour and splendour?
5.377 All was ended: and she vanished into thin air: yet 5.378 Her fragrance lingered: you’d have known it was a goddess.
5.569 And he sees Augustus’ name on the front of the shrine, 5.570 And reading ‘Caesar’ there, the work seems greater still. 5.571 He had vowed it as a youth, when dutifully taking arms: 5.572 With such deeds a Prince begins his reign. 5.573 Loyal troops standing here, conspirators over there, 5.574 He stretched his hand out, and spoke these words: 5.575 ‘If the death of my ‘father’ Julius, priest of Vesta, 5.576 Gives due cause for this war, if I avenge for both, 5.577 Come, Mars, and stain the sword with evil blood, 5.578 And lend your favour to the better side. You’ll gain
6.267 Vesta’s identified with Earth: in them both’s unsleeping fire:
6.319 Red-faced Priapus shall I tell of your shame or pass by? 6.320 It’s a brief tale but it’s a merry one. 6.321 Cybele, whose head is crowned with towers, 6.322 Called the eternal gods to her feast. 6.323 She invited the satyrs too, and those rural divinities, 6.324 The nymphs, and Silenus came, though no one asked him. 6.325 It’s forbidden, and would take too long, to describe the banquet 6.326 of the gods: the whole night was spent drinking deep. 6.327 Some wandered aimlessly in Ida’s shadowy vales, 6.328 Some lay, and stretched their limbs, on the soft grass. 6.329 Some played, some slept, others linked arm 6.330 And beat swift feet threefold on the grassy earth. 6.331 Vesta lay carelessly, enjoying a peaceful rest, 6.332 Her head reclining, resting on the turf. 6.333 But the red-faced keeper of gardens chased the nymph 6.334 And goddesses, and his roving feet turned to and fro. 6.335 He saw Vesta too: it’s doubtful whether he thought her 6.336 A nymph, or knew her as Vesta: he himself denied he knew. 6.337 He had wanton hopes, and tried to approach her in secret, 6.338 And walked on tiptoe, with a pounding heart. 6.339 Old Silenus had chanced to leave the mule 6.340 He rode by the banks of a flowing stream. 6.341 The god of the long Hellespont was about to start, 6.342 When the mule let out an untimely bray. 6.343 Frightened by the raucous noise, the goddess leapt up: 6.344 The whole troop gathered, and Priapus fled through their hands.
6.424 That’s all that’s left there: Rome has the Palladium.)
6.455 Now sacred flames you shine brightly under Caesar’s rule: 6.456 The fire on the Ilian hearths is there, and will remain, 6.457 It won’t be said that under him any priestess disgraced 6.458 Her office, nor that she was buried alive in the earth. 6.459 So the unchaste die, being entombed in what they 6.460 Have violated: since divine Earth and Vesta are one.
6.613 Yet she still dared to visit her father’s temple, 6.614 His monument: what I tell is strange but true.' ' None

18.6 \xa0So first of all, you should know that you have no need of toil or exacting labour; for although, when a man has already undergone a great deal of training, these contribute very greatly to his progress, yet if he has had only a little, they will lessen his confidence and make him diffident about getting into action; just as with athletes who are unaccustomed to the training of the body, such training weakens them if they become fatigued by exercises which are too severe. But just as bodies unaccustomed to toil need anointing and moderate exercise rather than the training of the gymnasium, so you in preparing yourself for public speaking have need of diligence which has a tempering of pleasure rather than laborious training. So let us consider the poets: I\xa0would counsel you to read Meder of the writers of Comedy quite carefully, and Euripides of the writers of Tragedy, and to do so, not casually by reading them to yourself, but by having them read to you by others, preferably by men who know how to render the lines pleasurably, but at any rate so as not to offend. For the effect is enhanced when one is relieved of the preoccupation of reading. <' "18.7 \xa0And let no one of the more 'advanced' critics chide me for selecting Meder's plays in preference to the Old Comedy, or Euripides in preference to the earlier writers of Tragedy. For physicians do not prescribe the most costly diet for their patients, but that which is salutary. Now it would be a long task to enumerate all the advantages to be derived from these writers; indeed, not only has Meder's portrayal of every character and every charming trait surpassed all the skill of the early writers of Comedy, but the suavity and plausibility of Euripides, while perhaps not completely attaining to the grandeur of the tragic poet's way of deifying his characters, or to his high dignity, are very useful for the man in public life; and furthermore, he cleverly fills his plays with an abundance of characters and moving incidents, and strews them with maxims useful on all occasions, since he was not without acquaintance with philosophy. <" '18.8 \xa0But Homer comes first and in the middle and last, in that he gives of himself to every boy and adult and old man just as much as each of them can take. Lyric and elegiac poetry too, and iambics and dithyrambs are very valuable for the man of leisure, but the man who intends to have a public career and at the same time to increase the scope of his activities and the effectiveness of his oratory, will have no time for them. <
18.10 \xa0As for Herodotus, if you ever want real enjoyment, you will read him when quite at your ease, for the easy-going manner and charm of his narrative will give the impression that his work deals with stories rather than with actual history. But among the foremost historians I\xa0place Thucydides, and among those of second rank Theopompus; for not only is there a rhetorical quality in the narrative portion of his speeches, but he is not without eloquence nor negligent in expression, and the slovenliness of his diction is not so bad as to offend you. As for Ephorus, while he hands down to us a great deal of information about events, yet the tediousness and carelessness of his narrative style would not suit your purpose. <'' None

2.85 \xa0In the same year, bounds were set to female profligacy by stringent resolutions of the senate; and it was laid down that no woman should trade in her body, if her father, grandfather, or husband had been a Roman knight. For Vistilia, the daughter of a praetorian family, had advertised her venality on the aediles\' list â\x80\x94 the normal procedure among our ancestors, who imagined the unchaste to be sufficiently punished by the avowal of their infamy. Her husband, Titidius Labeo, was also required to explain why, in view of his wife\'s manifest guilt, he had not invoked the penalty of the law. As he pleaded that sixty days, not yet elapsed, were allowed for deliberation, it was thought enough to pass sentence on Vistilia, who was removed to the island of Seriphos. â\x80\x94 Another debate dealt with the proscription of the Egyptian and Jewish rites, and a senatorial edict directed that four thousand descendants of enfranchised slaves, tainted with that superstition and suitable in point of age, were to be shipped to Sardinia and there employed in suppressing brigandage: "if they succumbed to the pestilential climate, it was a cheap loss." The rest had orders to leave Italy, unless they had renounced their impious ceremonial by a given date. <'' None

But why should\xa0I prolong my speech by going into all these details? Even if there are, then, some unpleasant things incident to marriage and the begetting of children, set over against them the advantages, and you will find these to be at once more numerous and more compelling.,4. \xa0For, in addition to all the other blessings that naturally inhere in this state of life, the prizes offered by the laws should induce each other to obey me; for a very small part of these inspires many to undergo even death. And is it not disgraceful that for rewards which lead others to sacrifice even their lives you should be unwilling either to marry wives or to rear children? \xa0<' ' None

5.3.8 These advantages accrued to the city from the nature of the country; but the foresight of the Romans added others besides. The Grecian cities are thought to have flourished mainly on account of the felicitous choice made by their founders, in regard to the beauty and strength of their sites, their proximity to some port, and the fineness of the country. But the Roman prudence was more particularly employed on matters which had received but little attention from the Greeks, such as paving their roads, constructing aqueducts, and sewers, to convey the sewage of the city into the Tiber. In fact, they have paved the roads, cut through hills, and filled up valleys, so that the merchandise may be conveyed by carriage from the ports. The sewers, arched over with hewn stones, are large enough in some parts for waggons loaded with hay to pass through; while so plentiful is the supply of water from the aqueducts, that rivers may be said to flow through the city and the sewers, and almost every house is furnished with water-pipes and copious fountains. To effect which Marcus Agrippa directed his special attention; he likewise bestowed upon the city numerous ornaments. We may remark, that the ancients, occupied with greater and more necessary concerns, paid but little attention to the beautifying of Rome. But their successors, and especially those of our own day, without neglecting these things, have at the same time embellished the city with numerous and splendid objects. Pompey, divus Caesar, and Augustus, with his children, friends, wife, and sister, have surpassed all others in their zeal and munificence in these decorations. The greater number of these may be seen in the Campus Martius, which to the beauties of nature adds those of art. The size of the plain is marvellous, permitting chariot-races and other feats of horsemanship without impediment, and multitudes to exercise themselves at ball, in the circus and the palaestra. The structures which surround it, the turf covered with herbage all the year round, the summits of the hills beyond the Tiber, extending from its banks with panoramic effect, present a spectacle which the eye abandons with regret. Near to this plain is another surrounded with columns, sacred groves, three theatres, an amphitheatre, and superb temples in close contiguity to each other; and so magnificent, that it would seem idle to describe the rest of the city after it. For this cause the Romans, esteeming it as the most sacred place, have there erected funeral monuments to the most illustrious persons of either sex. The most remarkable of these is that designated as the Mausoleum, which consists of a mound of earth raised upon a high foundation of white marble, situated near the river, and covered to the top with ever-green shrubs. Upon the summit is a bronze statue of Augustus Caesar, and beneath the mound are the ashes of himself, his relatives, and friends. Behind is a large grove containing charming promenades. In the centre of the plain, is the spot where this prince was reduced to ashes; it is surrounded with a double enclosure, one of marble, the other of iron, and planted within with poplars. If from hence you proceed to visit the ancient forum, which is equally filled with basilicas, porticos, and temples, you will there behold the Capitol, the Palatium, with the noble works which adorn them, and the promenade of Livia, each successive place causing you speedily to forget what you have before seen. Such is Rome.'' None

1.14 to thrust on dangers dark and endless toil
3.301 of Strophades,—a name the Grecians gave
6.783 Are men who hated, long as life endured,
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,
6.847 Lo! on the left and right at feast reclined 6.848 Are other blessed souls, whose chorus sings 6.849 Victorious paeans on the fragrant air 6.850 of laurel groves; and hence to earth outpours 6.851 Eridanus, through forests rolling free. 6.852 Here dwell the brave who for their native land 6.853 Fell wounded on the field; here holy priests
8.55 has stilled its swollen wave. A sign I tell:
8.653 escaped immediate death and fied away
8.655 in Turnus hospitality. To-day
8.660 re-echo with the tumult and the cry
8.671 Seek ye a king from far!’ So in the field ' "8.672 inert and fearful lies Etruria's force, " '8.673 disarmed by oracles. Their Tarchon sent 8.674 envoys who bore a sceptre and a crown 8.675 even to me, and prayed I should assume ' "8.676 the sacred emblems of Etruria's king, " '8.677 and lead their host to war. But unto me 8.678 cold, sluggish age, now barren and outworn, 8.679 denies new kingdoms, and my slow-paced powers 8.680 run to brave deeds no more. Nor could I urge ' "8.681 my son, who by his Sabine mother's line " '8.682 is half Italian-born. Thyself art he, 8.683 whose birth illustrious and manly prime 8.684 fate favors and celestial powers approve. 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 " '8.714 Olympus calls. My goddess-mother gave 8.715 long since her promise of a heavenly sign 8.716 if war should burst; and that her power would bring 8.717 a panoply from Vulcan through the air, 8.718 to help us at our need.
