The First Book, &c.
What Arms adorn’d Aurora’s glorious Son;
How high above his Hosts Achilles shone;
How brave Tydides thunder’d on his Car;
How his fierce Coursers swept the Ranks of War.1020
Nay, but at large, my godlike Guest, relate
The Grecian Wiles, she said, and Ilion’s Fate;
How far your Course around the Globe extends,
And what the Woes and Fortunes of your Friends:
For since you wander’d every Shore and Sea,1025
Have sev’n revolving Summers roll’d away.
The End of the First Book of the Æneid.
