🌍 Namque prudentem maximi semper aestimamus.
🚀 Namque humeris de more habilem suspenderat arcum / venatrix dederatque comam diffundere ventis, / nuda genu nodoque sinus collecta fluentes.
🔥 Namque videbat uti bellantes Pergama circum / hac fugerent Graji, premeret Trojana juventus; / hac Phryges, instaret curru cristatus Achilles.
💡 Adspice, namque omnem, quæ nunc obducta tuenti / mortales hebebat visus tibi et humida circum / caligat, nubem eripiam: tu ne qua parentis / jussa time, neu præceptis parere recusa!
🎯 Perge modo, atque hinc te reginæ ad limina perfer, / namque tibi reduces socios classemque relatam / nuntio et in tutum versis Aquilonibus actam, / ni frustra augurium vani docuere parentes.
🏆 Non ita; namque etsi nullum memorabile nomen / feminea in pœna est, nec habet victoria laudem, / exstinxisse nefas tamen et sumpsisse merentis / laudabor pœnas, animumque explesse juvabit / ultricis flammæ et cineres satiasse meorum.

💡 Etymology Fact: The root components of Sic Venus, et Veneris contra sic filius orsus: / "Nulla tuarum audita mihi neque visa sororum, / o – quam te memorem, virgo? namque haud tibi vultus / mortalis, nec vox hominem sonat. O dea certe, / an Phœbi soror? an Nympharum sanguinis una?" share deep historical origins with neighboring linguistic families.
Non ita; namque etsi nullum memorabile nomen / feminea in pœna est, nec habet victoria laudem, / exstinxisse nefas tamen et sumpsisse merentis / laudabor pœnas, animumque explesse juvabit / ultricis flammæ et cineres satiasse meorum.
Not so; though glory wait not on the act; / though poor the praise, and barren be the gain, / vengeance on feeble woman to exact, / yet praised hereafter shall his name remain, / who purges earth of such a monstrous stain. / Sweet is the passion of vindictive joy, / sweet is the punishment, where just the pain, / sweet the fierce ardour of revenge to cloy, / and slake with Dardan blood the funeral flames of Troy.
Hic mihi nescio quod trepido male numen amicum / confusam eripuit mentem: namque avia cursu / dum sequor et nota excedo regione viarum, / heu, misero conjux fatone erepta Creusa / subsistit, erravitne via, seu lassa resedit, / incertum.
Then trembling seized me and, amidst my fear, / what power I know not, but some power unkind / confused my wandering wits, and robbed me of my mind. / For while, the byways following, I left / the beaten track, ah! woe and well away! / my wife Creusa lost me – whether reft / by Fate, or faint or wandering astray, / I know not.

Him now Saturnia sought, and thus in lowly strain: / "O AEolus, for Jove, of human kind / and Gods the sovran Sire, hath given to thee / to lull the waves and lift them with the wind, / a hateful people, enemies to me, / their ships are steering o'er the Tuscan sea, / bearing their Troy and vanquished gods away / to Italy."

Restitit Aeneas claraque in luce refulsit, / os humerosque deo similis; namque ipsa decoram / caesariem nato genetrix lumenque juventae / purpureum et laetos oculis afflarat honores, / quale manus addunt ebori decus, aut ubi flavo / argentum Pariusve lapis circumdatur auro.
And bathed in sunshine stood the chief, endowed / with shape and features most divinely bright. / For graceful tresses and the purple light / of youth did Venus in her child unfold, / and sprightly lustre breathed upon his sight, / beauteous as ivory, or when artists mould / silver or Parian stone, enchased in yellow gold.

For while, the queen awaiting, round he gazed, / and marvelled at he happy town, and scanned / the rival labours of each craftman's hand, / behold, Troy's battles on the walls appear, / the war, since noised through many a distant land, / there Priam and th' Atridae twain, and here / Achilles, fierce to both, still ruthless and severe.
Talia vociferans gemitu tectum omne replebat, / cum subitum dictuque oritur mirabile monstrum. / Namque manus inter mæstorumque ora parentum / ecce levis summo de vertice visus Iuli / fundere lumen apex, tactuque innoxia molles / lambere flamma comas et circum tempora pasci.
So wailed Creusa, and in wild despair / filled all the palace with her sobs and cries, / when lo! a portent, wondrous to declare. / For while, 'twixt sorrowing parents' hands and eyes, / stood young Iulus, wildered with surprise, / up from the summit of his fair, young head / a tuft was seen of flickering flame to rise. / Gently and harmless to the touch it spread / around his tender brows, and on his temples fed.
