The Aeneid of Virgil

BOOK TWELVE
3/122

All eyes are riveted on the two, when Turnus' sword breaks, and once more he flees, pursued by AEneas.
Juturna gives Turnus another sword, and Venus restores to AEneas his spear (703-918).

Follows a colloquy between Jupiter and Juno .-- Turnus must die.

AEneas shall marry Lavinia and be king.

But the new nation must keep the ancient rites and names of Latium, and be called not Trojans but Latins.

Juno yields, and Jupiter warns Juturna to leave the battle (919-1026).
