Vergil. The Aeneid of Virgil. Williams, Theodore, C, translator. Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1910.

  1. That self-same day with aspect terrible
  2. Aeneas girt him in the wondrous arms
  3. his mother gave; made sharp his martial steel,
  4. and roused his heart to ire; though glad was he
  5. to seal such truce and end the general war.
  6. Then he spoke comfort to his friends; and soothed
  7. Iulus' fear, unfolding Heaven's intent;
  8. but on Latinus bade his heralds lay
  9. unyielding terms and laws of peace impose.
