To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
XLIX. Where, in another quarter, stones and trees, Torn from its banks, a torrent at its height Had strewn with wide-wrought ravage, Pallas sees His brave Arcadians break the ranks of fight, And turn before their Latin foes in flight. Strange to foot-combat, from his trusty horse The rough ground lured each rider to alight. Now with entreaties--'tis his last resource--And now with bitter words he fires their flagging force.
L. "Shame on ye, comrades! whither do ye run? By your brave deeds, and ...by the name ye bear, And great Evander's, by the wars ye won, By these my hopes, which even now bid fair E'en with my father's honours to compare. Trust not your feet; the sword, the sword must hew A pathway through the foemen. See, 'tis there, Where foes press thickest, and our friends are few, Our noble country calls for Pallas and for you.
LI. "No gods assail us; mortals fight to-day With mortals. Lives as many as theirs have we, As many hands, to match them in the fray. Earth fails for flight, and yonder lies the sea.
