5.92. οἳ μὲν ταῦτα ἔλεγον, τῶν δὲ συμμάχων τὸ πλῆθος οὐκ ἐνεδέκετο τοὺς λόγους. οἱ μέν νυν ἄλλοι ἡσυχίην ἦγον, Κορίνθιος δὲ Σωκλέης ἔλεξε τάδε.
5.92. τοῦτο μὲν δὴ τοῖσι Βακχιάδῃσι πρότερον γενόμενον ἦν ἀτέκμαρτον· τότε δὲ τὸ Ἠετίωνι γενόμενον ὡς ἐπύθοντο, αὐτίκα καὶ τὸ πρότερον συνῆκαν ἐὸν συνῳδὸν τῷ Ἠετίωνος. συνέντες δὲ καὶ τοῦτο εἶχον ἐν ἡσυχίῃ, ἐθέλοντες τὸν μέλλοντα Ἠετίωνι γίνεσθαι γόνον διαφθεῖραι. ὡς δʼ ἔτεκε ἡ γυνὴ τάχιστα, πέμπουσι σφέων αὐτῶν δέκα ἐς τὸν δῆμον ἐν τῷ κατοίκητο ὁ Ἠετίων ἀποκτενέοντας τὸ παιδίον. ἀπικόμενοι δὲ οὗτοι ἐς τὴν Πέτρην καὶ παρελθόντες ἐς τὴν αὐλὴν τὴν Ἠετίωνος αἴτεον τὸ παιδίον· ἡ δὲ Λάβδα εἰδυῖά τε οὐδὲν τῶν εἵνεκα ἐκεῖνοι ἀπικοίατο, καὶ δοκέουσα σφέας φιλοφροσύνης τοῦ πατρὸς εἵνεκα αἰτέειν, φέρουσα ἐνεχείρισε αὐτῶν ἑνί. τοῖσι δὲ ἄρα ἐβεβούλευτο κατʼ ὁδὸν τὸν πρῶτον αὐτῶν λαβόντα τὸ παιδίον προσουδίσαι. ἐπεὶ ὦν ἔδωκε φέρουσα ἡ Λάβδα, τὸν λαβόντα τῶν ἀνδρῶν θείῃ τύχῃ προσεγέλασε τὸ παιδίον, καὶ τὸν φρασθέντα τοῦτο οἶκτός τις ἴσχει ἀποκτεῖναι, κατοικτείρας δὲ παραδιδοῖ τῷ δευτέρῳ, ὁ δὲ τῷ τρίτῳ. οὕτω δὴ διεξῆλθε διὰ πάντων τῶν δέκα παραδιδόμενον, οὐδενὸς βουλομένου διεργάσασθαι. ἀποδόντες ὦν ὀπίσω τῇ τεκούσῃ τὸ παιδίον καὶ ἐξελθόντες ἔξω, ἑστεῶτες ἐπὶ τῶν θυρέων ἀλλήλων ἅπτοντο καταιτιώμενοι, καὶ μάλιστα τοῦ πρώτου λαβόντος, ὅτι οὐκ ἐποίησε κατὰ τὰ δεδογμένα, ἐς ὃ δή σφι χρόνου ἐγγινομένου ἔδοξε αὖτις παρελθόντας πάντας τοῦ φόνου μετίσχειν.
5.92. ‘ἦ δὴ ὅ τε οὐρανὸς ἔνερθε ἔσται τῆς γῆς καὶ ἡ γῆ μετέωρος ὑπὲρ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, καὶ ἄνθρωποι νομὸν ἐν θαλάσσῃ ἕξουσι καὶ ἰχθύες τὸν πρότερον ἄνθρωποι, ὅτε γε ὑμεῖς ὦ Λακεδαιμόνιοι ἰσοκρατίας καταλύοντες τυραννίδας ἐς τὰς πόλις κατάγειν παρασκευάζεσθε, τοῦ οὔτε ἀδικώτερον ἐστὶ οὐδὲν κατʼ ἀνθρώπους οὔτε μιαιφονώτερον. εἰ γὰρ δὴ τοῦτό γε δοκέει ὑμῖν εἶναι χρηστὸν ὥστε τυραννεύεσθαι τὰς πόλις, αὐτοὶ πρῶτοι τύραννον καταστησάμενοι παρὰ σφίσι αὐτοῖσι οὕτω καὶ τοῖσι ἄλλοισι δίζησθε κατιστάναι· νῦν δὲ αὐτοὶ τυράννων ἄπειροι ἐόντες, καὶ φυλάσσοντες τοῦτο δεινότατα ἐν τῇ Σπάρτῃ μὴ γενέσθαι, παραχρᾶσθε ἐς τοὺς συμμάχους. εἰ δὲ αὐτοῦ ἔμπειροι ἔατε κατά περ ἡμεῖς, εἴχετε ἂν περὶ αὐτοῦ γνώμας ἀμείνονας συμβαλέσθαι ἤ περ νῦν.

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:

6.355. Tris Notus hibernas immensa per aequora noctes 6.356. vexit me violentus aqua; vix lumine quarto 6.357. prospexi Italiam summa sublimis ab unda. 6.358. Paulatim adnabam terrae; iam tuta tenebam, 6.359. ni gens crudelis madida cum veste gravatum 6.360. prensantemque uncis manibus capita aspera montis 6.361. ferro invasisset, praedamque ignara putasset. 6.362. Nunc me fluctus habet, versantque in litore venti. 6.363. Quod te per caeli iucundum lumen et auras, 6.364. per genitorem oro, per spes surgentis Iuli, 6.365. eripe me his, invicte, malis: aut tu mihi terram 6.366. inice, namque potes, portusque require Velinos; 6.367. aut tu, si qua via est, si quam tibi diva creatrix 6.368. ostendit—neque enim, credo, sine numine divom 6.369. flumina tanta paras Stygiamque innare paludem—

6.381. aeternumque locus Palinuri nomen habebit.
7.1. Tu quoque litoribus nostris, Aeneia nutrix, 7.2. aeternam moriens famam, Caieta, dedisti; 7.3. et nunc servat honos sedem tuus ossaque nomen 7.4. Hesperia in magna, siqua est ea gloria, signat. 7.5. At pius exsequiis Aeneas rite solutis, 7.6. aggere composito tumuli, postquam alta quierunt 7.7. aequora, tendit iter velis portumque relinquit. 7.8. Adspirant aurae in noctem nec candida cursus 7.9. Luna negat, splendet tremulo sub lumine pontus.
7.10. Proxima Circaeae raduntur litora terrae,
7.11. dives inaccessos ubi Solis filia lucos
7.12. adsiduo resonat cantu tectisque superbis
7.13. urit odoratam nocturna in lumina cedrum,
7.14. arguto tenuis percurrens pectine telas.

7.18. saevire ac formae magnorum ululare luporum,
7.19. quos hominum ex facie dea saeva potentibus herbis 7.20. induerat Circe in voltus ac terga ferarum. 7.21. Quae ne monstra pii paterentur talia Troes 7.22. delati in portus neu litora dira subirent, 7.23. Neptunus ventis implevit vela secundis 7.24. atque fugam dedit et praeter vada fervida vexit. 7.25. Iamque rubescebat radiis mare et aethere ab alto 7.26. Aurora in roseis fulgebat lutea bigis: 7.27. cum venti posuere omnisque repente resedit 7.28. flatus et in lento luctantur marmore tonsae. 7.29. Atque hic Aeneas ingentem ex aequore lucum 7.30. prospicit. Hunc inter fluvio Tiberinus amoeno 7.32. in mare prorumpit. Variae circumque supraque 7.33. adsuetae ripis volucres et fluminis alveo 7.34. aethera mulcebant cantu lucoque volabant. 7.35. flectere iter sociis terraeque advertere proras 7.36. imperat et laetus fluvio succedit opaco. 7.37. Nunc age, qui reges, Erato, quae tempora rerum, 7.38. quis Latio antiquo fuerit status, advena classem 7.39. cum primum Ausoniis exercitus appulit oris, 7.40. expediam et primae revocabo exordia pugnae. 7.41. tu vatem, tu, diva, mone. Dicam horrida bella, 7.42. dicam acies actosque animis in funera reges 7.43. Tyrrhenamque manum totamque sub arma coactam 7.44. Hesperiam. Maior rerum mihi nascitur ordo,
7.566. urguet utrimque latus nemoris, medioque fragosus 7.567. dat sonitum saxis et torto vertice torrens. 7.568. Hic specus horrendum et saevi spiracula Ditis 7.569. monstrantur, ruptoque ingens Acheronte vorago 7.570. pestiferas aperit fauces, quis condita Erinys,' '. None | 1.588. the bastioned gates; the uproar of the throng. 1.589. The Tyrians toil unwearied; some up-raise
2.590. The Greek besiegers to the roof-tops fled;
5.814. and build a town? O city of our sires! 5.815. O venerated gods from haughty foes
6.174. This is a task indeed, a strife supreme.
6.176. Or quenchless virtue carried to the stars, 6.177. Children of gods, have such a victory won. 6.178. Grim forests stop the way, and, gliding slow, 6.179. Cocytus circles through the sightless gloom. 6.180. But if it be thy dream and fond desire ' "6.181. Twice o'er the Stygian gulf to travel, twice " '6.182. On glooms of Tartarus to set thine eyes, 6.183. If such mad quest be now thy pleasure—hear 6.184. What must be first fulfilled . A certain tree 6.185. Hides in obscurest shade a golden bough, 6.186. of pliant stems and many a leaf of gold, 6.187. Sacred to Proserpine, infernal Queen. 6.188. Far in the grove it hides; in sunless vale 6.189. Deep shadows keep it in captivity. 6.190. No pilgrim to that underworld can pass 6.191. But he who plucks this burgeoned, leafy gold; 6.192. For this hath beauteous Proserpine ordained ' "6.193. Her chosen gift to be. Whene'er it is culled, " '6.194. A branch out-leafing in like golden gleam, 6.195. A second wonder-stem, fails not to spring. 6.196. Therefore go seek it with uplifted eyes! 6.197. And when by will of Heaven thou findest it, 6.198. Reach forth and pluck; for at a touch it yields, 6.199. A free and willing gift, if Fate ordain; 6.200. But otherwise no mortal strength avails, 6.201. Nor strong, sharp steel, to rend it from the tree. ' "6.202. Another task awaits; thy friend's cold clay " '6.203. Lies unentombed. Alas! thou art not ware 6.204. (While in my house thou lingerest, seeking light) 6.205. That all thy ships are by his death defiled. 6.206. Unto his resting-place and sepulchre, 6.207. Go, carry him! And sable victims bring, 6.208. In expiation, to his mournful shade. 6.209. So at the last on yonder Stygian groves, 6.210. And realms to things that breathe impassable, 6.212. Aeneas then drew forth, with downcast eyes, 6.213. From that dark cavern, pondering in his heart 6.214. The riddle of his fate. His faithful friend 6.215. Achates at his side, with paces slow, 6.216. Companioned all his care, while their sad souls 6.217. Made mutual and oft-renewed surmise 6.218. What comrade dead, what cold and tombless clay, ' "6.219. The Sibyl's word would show. " '6.220. But as they mused, 6.221. Behold Misenus on the dry sea-sands, 6.222. By hasty hand of death struck guiltless down! 6.223. A son of Aeolus, none better knew ' "6.224. To waken heroes by the clarion's call, " "6.225. With war-enkindling sound. Great Hector's friend " "6.226. In happier days, he oft at Hector's side " '6.227. Strode to the fight with glittering lance and horn. 6.228. But when Achilles stripped his fallen foe, 6.229. This dauntless hero to Aeneas gave 6.230. Allegiance true, in not less noble cause. 6.231. But, on a day, he chanced beside the sea 6.232. To blow his shell-shaped horn, and wildly dared 6.233. Challenge the gods themselves to rival song; 6.234. Till jealous Triton, if the tale be true, 6.235. Grasped the rash mortal, and out-flung him far
6.296. They gather up and burn the gifts of myrrh, 6.348. Ye gods! who rule the spirits of the dead! 6.349. Ye voiceless shades and silent lands of night! 6.350. 0 Phlegethon! 0 Chaos! let my song, 6.351. If it be lawful, in fit words declare 6.352. What I have heard; and by your help divine 6.353. Unfold what hidden things enshrouded lie
6.355. They walked exploring the unpeopled night, ' "6.356. Through Pluto's vacuous realms, and regions void, " "6.357. As when one's path in dreary woodlands winds " "6.358. Beneath a misty moon's deceiving ray, " '6.359. When Jove has mantled all his heaven in shade, 6.360. And night seals up the beauty of the world. 6.361. In the first courts and entrances of Hell 6.362. Sorrows and vengeful Cares on couches lie : 6.363. There sad Old Age abides, Diseases pale, 6.364. And Fear, and Hunger, temptress to all crime; 6.365. Want, base and vile, and, two dread shapes to see, ' "6.366. Bondage and Death : then Sleep, Death's next of kin; " '6.367. And dreams of guilty joy. Death-dealing War 6.368. Is ever at the doors, and hard thereby ' "6.369. The Furies' beds of steel, where wild-eyed Strife " '
6.371. There in the middle court a shadowy elm
6.381. Aeneas, shuddering with sudden fear,
7.1. One more immortal name thy death bequeathed, 7.2. Nurse of Aeneas, to Italian shores, 7.3. Caieta ; there thy honor hath a home; ' "7.4. Thy bones a name: and on Hesperia's breast " '7.5. Their proper glory. When Aeneas now 7.6. The tribute of sepulchral vows had paid ' "7.7. Beside the funeral mound, and o'er the seas " '7.8. Stillness had fallen, he flung forth his sails, 7.9. And leaving port pursued his destined way.
7.10. Freshly the night-winds breathe; the cloudless moon
7.11. Outpours upon his path unstinted beam,
7.12. And with far-trembling glory smites the sea.
7.13. Close to the lands of Circe soon they fare, ' "
7.14. Where the Sun's golden daughter in far groves " '
7.15. Sounds forth her ceaseless song; her lofty hall
7.16. Is fragrant every night with flaring brands
7.17. of cedar, giving light the while she weaves
7.18. With shrill-voiced shuttle at her linens fine.
7.19. From hence are heard the loud lament and wrath 7.20. of lions, rebels to their linked chains 7.21. And roaring all night long; great bristly boars 7.22. And herded bears, in pinfold closely kept, 7.23. Rage horribly, and monster-wolves make moan; 7.24. Whom the dread goddess with foul juices strong 7.25. From forms of men drove forth, and bade to wear ' "7.26. the mouths and maws of beasts in Circe's thrall. " '7.27. But lest the sacred Trojans should endure 7.28. uch prodigy of doom, or anchor there 7.29. on that destroying shore, kind Neptune filled 7.30. their sails with winds of power, and sped them on 7.32. Now morning flushed the wave, and saffron-garbed 7.33. Aurora from her rose-red chariot beamed 7.34. in highest heaven; the sea-winds ceased to stir; 7.35. a sudden calm possessed the air, and tides 7.36. of marble smoothness met the laboring oar. 7.37. Then, gazing from the deep, Aeneas saw ' "7.38. a stretch of groves, whence Tiber 's smiling stream, " '7.39. its tumbling current rich with yellow sands, 7.40. burst seaward forth: around it and above 7.41. hore-haunting birds of varied voice and plume 7.42. flattered the sky with song, and, circling far ' "7.43. o'er river-bed and grove, took joyful wing. " '7.44. Thither to landward now his ships he steered,
7.566. thy warriors in arms! Swift sallying forth 7.567. from thy strong city-gates, on to the fray 7.568. exultant go! Assail the Phrygian chiefs ' "7.569. who tent them by thy beauteous river's marge, " "7.570. and burn their painted galleys! 't is the will " '. None |
