Page 439 - Tros Anchisiade, facilis descensus Averno : noctes atque dies patet atri ianua Ditis ; sed revocare gradum superasque evadere ad auras, hoc opus, hie labor est.
Page 136 - Why am I thus bereaved thy prime decree ? The sun to me is dark And silent as the moon, When she deserts the night, Hid in her vacant interlunar cave.
