490
"The common cauſe of all demands your
valour."
Meantime from Perſia's hoſts the deep'ning ſhout
Anſwer'd their ſhout; no time for cold delay;
But ſhip 'gainſt ſhip its brazen beak impell'd.
495
Firſt to the charge a Grecian galley ruſh'd;
Ill the Phoenician bore the rough attack,
Its ſculptur'd prow all ſhatter'd.
Each advanc'd
Daring an oppoſite.
500
The deep array
Of Perſia at the firſt ſuſtain'd th' encounter;
But their throng'd numbers, in the narrow ſeas
Confin'd, want room for action;
and depriv'd
505
Of mutual aid beaks claſh with beaks, and each
Breaks all the other's oars:
with ſkill diſpos'd
The Grecian navy circled them around
With fierce aſſault; and ruſhing from its height
510
Th' inverted veſſel ſinks: the ſea no more
Wears its accuſtom'd aſpect, with foul wrecks
And blood diſfigur'd;
floating carcaſſes
Roll on the rocky ſhores: the poor remains
515
Of the barbaric armament to flight
Ply ev'ry oar inglorious: onward ruſh
The Greeks amidſt the ruins of the fleet,
As thro' a ſhoal of fiſh caught in the net,
Spreading deſtruction:
520
the wide ocean o'er
Wailings are heard, and loud laments, till night
With darkneſs on her brow brought grateful truce,
Shou'd I recount each circumſtance of woe,
Ten times on my unfinish'd tale the ſun
525
Wou'd
Wou'd ſet; for be aſſur'd that not one day
Cou'd cloſe the ruin of ſo vaſt an hoſt.
