(). Too true thy witness: for the fact cries out
Wild thoughts were here and Reason’s lamp extinct.
Strong helpers of sea-speed, whose nimble hand
Plied hither the salt oar with circling stroke,
No shepherd there was found
To give the avenging wound.
Come, lay me with the flock!

Oh ! if thou prayst for death,
Pray too for mine ; for wherefoi-e should I live
When thou art gone 1
And hope ! oh wrap me in your friendly shade,
A TTillIng gucct ! I daro net look for IiqI~),
Or from the gods above, or men below ;
The powerful daughter of eternal Jove
To death devotes me. Whither can I fly,
Or where remain, my fame and glory lost
In this sad frenzy ? Left without a friend,
And the whole army bent on my destruction !

Do not to ills ill medicines apply,
Nor a severer anguish add to grief.
