    Aeneid I.35-49 & Relative Pronouns

    Aeneid I.34-49
    Vix e conspectu Siculae telluris in altum

    vela dabant laeti, et spumas salis aere ruebant,                          35

    cum Iuno, aeternum servans sub pectore vulnus,

    haec secum: 'Mene incepto desistere victam,

    nec posse Italia Teucrorum avertere regem?

    Quippe vetor fatis. Pallasne exurere classem

    Argivum atque ipsos potuit submergere ponto,               40

    unius ob noxam et furias Aiacis Oilei?

    Ipsa, Iovis rapidum iaculata e nubibus ignem,

    disiecitque rates evertitque aequora ventis,

    illum expirantem transfixo pectore flammas

    turbine corripuit scopuloque infixit acuto.                 45

    Ast ego, quae divum incedo regina, Iovisque

    et soror et coniunx, una cum gente tot annos

    bella gero! Et quisquam numen Iunonis adoret

    praeterea, aut supplex aris imponet honorem?'

    Aeneid I.23-33 & Ablatives

    Aeneid I.23-33 & Ablatives

    Today we cover The Aeneid I.23-33 and review Ablatives, specifically how to recognize Ablatives without Prepositions. Oh Baby.



    Id metuēns, veterisque memor Sāturnia bellī,

    prīma quod ad Trōiam prō cārīs gesserat Argīs—

    necdum etiam causae īrārum saevīque dolōrēs                          25

    exciderant animō: manet altā mente repostum

    iūdicium Paridis sprētaeque iniūria fōrmae,

    et genus invīsum, et raptī Ganymēdis honōrēs.

    Hīs accēnsa super, iactātōs aequore tōtō

    Trōas, rēliquiās Danaum atque immītis Achillī,                          30

    arcēbat longē Latiō, multōsque per annōs

    errābant, āctī Fātīs, maria omnia circum.

    Tantae mōlis erat Rōmānam condere gentem!

    Aeneid I.8-22 & Present Active Participles

    Aeneid I.8-22 & Present Active Participles

    Join us as we cover Aeneid I.8-22 & Present Active Participles

    Mūsa, mihī causās memorā, quō nūmine laesō,

    quidve dolēns, rēgīna deum tot volvere cāsūs

    īnsīgnem pietāte virum, tot adīre labōrēs                                   10

    impulerit. Tantaene animīs caelestibus īrae?

    Urbs antīqua fuit, Tyriī tenuēre colōnī,

    Karthāgō, Ītaliam contrā Tiberīnaque longē

    ōstia, dīves opum studiīsque asperrima bellī,

    quam Iūnō fertur terrīs magis omnibus ūnam                           15

    posthabitā coluisse Samō; hīc illius arma,

    hīc currus fuit; hōc rēgnum dea gentibus esse,

    sī quā Fāta sinant, iam tum tenditque fovetque.

    Prōgeniem sed enim Trōiānō ā sanguine dūcī

    audierat, Tyriās olim quae verteret arcēs;                                   20

    hinc populum lātē regem bellōque superbum

    ventūrum excidiō Libyae: sīc volvere Parcās.
