Popular passages
Page xiv - Let others better mould the running mass Of metals, and inform the breathing brass, And soften into flesh, a marble face; Plead better at the bar; describe the skies, And when the stars descend, and when they rise. But Rome! 'tis thine alone, with awful sway, To rule mankind, and make the world obey, Disposing peace and war, thy own majestic way: To tame the proud, the fettered slave to free: — These are imperial arts, and worthy thee.

Page 84 - ... oro, si quis adhuc precibus locus — exue mentem. Te propter Libycae gentes Nomadumque tyranni 320 odere, infensi Tyrii ; te propter eundem exstinctus pudor, et, qua sola sidera adibam, fama prior. Cui me moribundam deseris, hospes ? Hoc solum nomen quoniam de coniuge restat.
Page 34 - Ille nihil, nec me quaerentem vana moratur, sed graviter gemitus imo de pectore ducens, ' Heu fuge, nate dea, teque his, ait, eripe flammis.
Page 64 - Haec loca vi quondam et vasta convolsa ruina (tantum aevi longinqua valet mutare vetustas) 415 dissiluisse feruiit, cum protinus utraque tellus una foret ; venit medio vi pontus et undis Hesperium Siculo latus abscidit arvaque et urbes litore diductas angusto interluit aestu.
