الصفحة 231 - Thou know'st not I am he to whom 'tis given Never to want the care of watchful heaven. Obedient fortune waits my humble thrall, And, always ready, comes before I call. Let winds, and seas, loud wars at freedom wage, And waste upon themselves their empty rage ; A stronger, mightier dromon is thy friend, Thou and thy bark on Cesar's fate depend.

If the good gods, indulgent to my prayer, Should make the laws of Rome, and thee, their care ; In distant climes I may prolong my woe, And be the last thy victory to know. On some bleak rock, that frowns upon the deep, A constant watch thy weeping wife shall keep; There from each sail misfortune shall I guess, And dread the bark that brings me thy success. But if th...
الصفحة 401 - Their will has been thy law, and thou hast kept it well. Fate bids thee now the noble thought improve ; Fate brings thee here to meet and talk with Jove. Inquire betimes what various chance shall come To impious Caesar and thy native Rome ; Try to avert, at least, thy country's doom.
الصفحة 360 - Now pale, and wan, is fix'd upbn a spear, And borne, for public, view, aloft in air. The tyrant, pleas'd, beheld it; and decreed To keep this pledge of his detested deed. His slaves straight...
الصفحة 310 - Bounds from the hill, and thunders down tlie vale; Old Pelion's caves the doubling roar return, And Oeta's rocks and groaning Pindus mourn; From pole to pole the tumult spreads afar; And the .world trembles at the distant war. Now flit the thrilling darts through liquid air, And various vows from various masters bear: Some...
الصفحة 301 - Gaul we made our hard abode, And many a march in partnership have trod. Is there a soldier to your chief unknown? A sword, to whom I trust not, like my own? Could I not mark each javelin in the sky, And say from whom the fatal weapons !ly } E'en now I view auspicious furies rise.
