aeneid

• those who died in troy were luckier than i
• i was filled with rage to avenge my home
• caught in the snare of shameful passion
• like a hunting dog
• turnus reached out his arms and begged as his suppliant
• he showed the face of hope and kept misery deep in his heart
• i am aeneas known for my devotion
• let us rush into the thick of fighting
• i longed in my anger to avenge my country
• it is not right for me to touch them till i have washed in a running stream
• i stormed and raged and blamed every god and man that ever was
• forgetting about their kingdoms and becoming slaves of lust
• i see my son ascanius and think of the wrong i am doing him
• aeneas strode fearlessly along behind her
• he wept and spoke sweet words of love to her
• like a raging torrent of water
• it pierced the tunic his mother had woven for him
• why am i never allowed to take your hand in mine
• venus was turning over new schemes in her mind
• the doomed dido
• raising horrible cries to heaven like the bellowing of a wounded bull
• he threw his harmless spear
• did you think i could run away and leave my father here
• like a wounded doe
• called it marriage using the word to cover her guilt
• have you forgotten your kingdom and destiny
• juno took pity on her
• it was against my will that i left your shore
• i knew your devotion would prevail
• the lust for battle raged within him
• ascanius burning with a passionate love of glory
• cruel mezentius
• my only source of joy
• his fathers star shone
• like a wolf
• nisus was like a lion driven mad with hunger
• euryalus was in blazing fury
• a scarlet flower languishing and dying when it’s stem had been cut by the plough
• vomiting his life’s blood in front of them
• allow me to take ascanius out of the war
