Virgil

« All quotes from this author
 

Aestuat ingens
Imo in corde pudor mixtoque insania luctu
Et furiis agitatus amor et conscia virtus.
--
Rage boiling from the bottom of his breast, And sorrow, mix'd with shame, his soul oppress'd; And conscious worth lay lab'ring in his thought; And love by jealousy to madness wrought.
--
Lines 666-668 (translated by John Dryden)
