Aen. 5.42Postera cum prīmō stellās Oriente fugārat
clāra diēs, sociōs in coetum lītore ab omnī
advocat Aenēās, tumulīque ex aggere fātur:
45Dardanidae magnī, genus altō ā sanguine dīvom,
annuus exāctīs complētur mēnsibus orbis,
ex quō reliquiās dīvīnīque ossa parentis
Condidimus terrā maestāsque sacrāvimus ārās.When the next bright day had put the stars to flight with the first light of dawn, Aeneas calls his comrades to an assembly from all along the shore, and speaks from the top of a mound: 'Great Dardanians, race sprung from the high blood of the gods, the yearly circle is completed, the months run out, since we buried in the earth the remains and bones of my divine father and consecrated altars of mourning. Aen. 5.49Iamque diēs, nisi fallor, adest, quem semper acerbum,
50semper honōrātum—sīc dī voluistis—habēbō.And now the day is here, unless I am mistaken, which I shall always hold bitter, always honoured—so, gods, you have willed it. Aen. 5.51Hunc ego Gaetūlīs agerem sī Syrtibus exsul,
Argolicōve marī dēprēnsus et urbe Mycēnae;If I were spending this day an exile among the Gaetulian Syrtes, or caught on the Argive sea or in the city of Mycenae; Aen. 5.53annua vōta tamen sollemnīsque ōrdine pompās
exsequerer, strueremque suīs altāria dōnīs.still I would perform the yearly vows and solemn processions in due order, and heap the altars with their proper gifts.
Aen. 5.55Nunc ultrō ad cinerēs ipsīus et ossa parentis,
haud equidem sine mente, reor, sine nūmine dīvom,
adsumus et portūs dēlātī intrāmus amīcōs.Now, beyond all hope, we stand by the ashes and bones of my father himself, not, I think, without the purpose and will of the gods, and, carried here, we enter friendly harbours. Aen. 5.58Ergō agite, et laetum cūnctī celebrēmus honōrem;Come then, and let us all celebrate the rite with gladness; Aen. 5.59poscāmus ventōs;let us pray for winds; Aen. 5.59atque haec mē sacra quotannīs
60urbe velit positā templīs sibi ferre dicātīs.and may he be willing that I offer these rites to him every year, once my city is founded, in temples dedicated to him. Aen. 5.61Bīna boum vōbīs Trōiā generātus Acestēs
dat numerō capita in nāvēs;Acestes, born of Troy, gives you two head of oxen for each ship; Aen. 5.62adhibēte Penātēs
et patriōs epulīs et quōs colit hospes Acestēs.invite to the feast the Penates, both those of our fathers and those whom our host Acestes worships. Aen. 5.64Praetereā, sī nōna diem mortālibus almum
65Aurōra extulerit radiīsque retēxerit orbem,
prīma citae Teucrīs pōnam certāmina classis;Moreover, if the ninth Dawn brings out the kindly day for mortals and uncovers the world with her rays, I shall set first for the Trojans a contest of swift ships; Aen. 5.67quique pedum cursū valet, et quī vīribus audāx
aut iaculō incēdit melior levibusque sagittīs,
seu crūdō fīdit pugnam committere caestū,
70cūnctī adsint, meritaeque exspectent praemia palmae.and whoever is strong in the foot race, and whoever, bold in his strength, steps forward better with the javelin and light arrows, or trusts himself to join battle with the rawhide gauntlet, let all be present and look for the prizes of a well-earned palm.
Aen. 5.71Ōre favēte omnēs, et cingite tempora rāmīs.Keep holy silence, all of you, and wreathe your temples with leaves.'
