Then quickly answered Turnus, glancing round, "Sister, long since I knew thee--knew thee plain, When first thy cunning did the league confound, And sent thee forth, fierce battle to darrain; And now thou think'st to cheat me, but in vain, Albeit a goddess.

"What can I do?
What pledge of safety more Doth Fortune give?
what better hopes remain?
Myself beheld, these very eyes before, Murranus die, the dearest of our train, Stretched by a huge wound hugely on the plain.

Shall Turnus run, and Latins see him fly?
And is it then so terrible to die?
Be kind, dread spirits of the world below! To you, since envious are the powers on high, Worthy my ancestors of long ago, Free from the coward's blame, a sacred shade I go." LXXXV.
