1. Cicero, Republic, 2.34 (2nd cent. BCE - 1st cent. BCE)

2.34. Sed hoc loco primum videtur insitiva quadam disciplina doctior facta esse civitas. Influxit enim non tenuis quidam e Graecia rivulus in hanc urbem, sed abundantissimus amnis illarum disciplinarum et artium. Fuisse enim quendam ferunt Demaratum Corinthium et honore et auctoritate et fortunis facile civitatis suae principem; qui cum Corinthiorum tyrannum Cypselum ferre non potuisset, fugisse cum magna pecunia dicitur ac se contulisse Tarquinios, in urbem Etruriae florentissimam. Cumque audiret dominationem Cypseli confirmari, defugit patriam vir liber ac fortis et adscitus est civis a Tarquiniensibus atque in ea civitate domicilium et sedes collocavit. Ubi cum de matre familias Tarquiniensi duo filios procreavisset, omnibus eos artibus ad Graecorum disciplinam eru diit
2. Aelius Aristides, Orations, 26.8, 26.11, 26.13, 26.62 (2nd cent. CE - 2nd cent. CE)

3. Vergil, Aeneis, 1.97-1.101, 8.5, 8.47-8.49, 8.51-8.54, 8.470-8.472, 8.474-8.526, 8.529-8.533, 8.535-8.540

1.97. Hurl far and wide, and strew the waves with dead! 1.98. Twice seven nymphs are mine, of rarest mould; 1.99. of whom Deiopea, the most fair 1.100. I give thee in true wedlock for thine own 1.101. to mate thy noble worth; she at thy side 8.5. then woke each warrior soul; all Latium stirred 8.48. “Seed of the gods! who bringest to my shore 8.49. thy Trojan city wrested from her foe 8.51. and fair Laurentum long have looked for thee. 8.52. Here truly is thy home. Turn not away. 8.53. Here the true guardians of thy hearth shall be. 8.54. Fear not the gathering war. The wrath of Heaven 8.470. jove's dread right hand here visibly appears 8.471. to shake his aegis in the darkening storm 8.472. the clouds compelling. Yonder rise in view 8.474. are but a memory of great heroes gone: 8.475. one father Janus built, and Saturn one; 8.476. their names, Saturnia and Janiculum.” 8.477. 'Mid such good parley to the house they came 8.478. of King Evander, unadorned and plain 8.479. whence herds of browsing cattle could be seen 8.480. ranging the Forum, and loud-bellowing 8.481. in proud Carinae. As they entered there 8.482. “Behold,” said he, “the threshold that received 8.483. Alcides in his triumph! This abode 8.484. he made his own. Dare, O illustrious guest 8.485. to scorn the pomp of power. Shape thy soul 8.486. to be a god's fit follower. Enter here 8.487. and free from pride our frugal welcome share.” 8.488. So saying, 'neath his roof-tree scant and low 8.489. he led the great Aeneas, offering him 8.490. a couch of leaves with Libyan bear-skin spread. 8.491. Now night drew near, enfolding the wide world 8.492. in shadowy wings. But Venus, sore disturbed 8.493. vexed not unwisely her maternal breast 8.494. fearing Laurentum's menace and wild stir 8.495. of obstinate revolt, and made her plea 8.496. to Vulcan in their nuptial bower of gold 8.497. outbreathing in the music of her words 8.498. celestial love: “When warring Argive kings 8.499. brought ruin on Troy 's sacred citadel 8.500. and ramparts soon to sink in hostile flames 8.501. I asked not thee to help that hopeless woe 8.502. nor craved thy craft and power. For, dearest lord 8.503. I would not tax in vain shine arduous toil 8.504. though much to Priam's children I was bound 8.505. and oft to see Aeneas burdened sore 8.506. I could but weep. But now by will of Jove 8.507. he has found foothold in Rutulian lands. 8.508. Therefore I come at last with lowly suit 8.509. before a godhead I adore, and pray 8.510. for gift of arms,—a mother for her son. 8.511. Thou wert not unrelenting to the tears 8.512. of Nereus' daughter or Tithonus' bride. 8.513. Behold what tribes conspire, what cities strong 8.514. behind barred gates now make the falchion keen 8.515. to ruin and blot out both me and mine!” 8.516. So spake the goddess, as her arms of snow 8.517. around her hesitating spouse she threw 8.518. in tender, close embrace. He suddenly 8.519. knew the familiar fire, and o'er his frame 8.520. its wonted ardor unresisted ran 8.521. wift as the glittering shaft of thunder cleaves 8.522. the darkened air and on from cloud to cloud 8.523. the rift of lightning runs. She, joyful wife; 8.524. felt what her beauty and her guile could do; 8.525. as, thralled by love unquenchable, her spouse 8.526. thus answered fair: “Why wilt thou labor so 8.529. I could have armed the Teucrians. Neither Jove 8.530. nor Destiny had grudged ten added years 8.531. of life to Troy and Priam. If to-day 8.532. thou hast a war in hand, and if thy heart 8.533. determine so, I willingly engage 8.535. molten alloy or welded iron can 8.536. whate'er my roaring forge and flames achieve 8.537. I offer thee. No more in anxious prayer 8.538. distrust thy beauty's power.” So saying, he gave 8.539. embrace of mutual desire, and found

1.498. So too, after rain 1.499. Sunshine and open skies thou mayst forecast 2.146. The barren mountain-ashes; on the shore 2.147. Myrtles throng gayest; Bacchus, lastly, love 2.148. The bare hillside, and yews the north wind's chill.
