Aen. 7.761Ībat et Hippolytī prōlēs pulcherrima bellō,
Virbius, īnsignem quem māter Arīcia mīsit,
ēductum Ēgeriae lūcīs ūmentia circum
lītora, pinguis ubi et plācābilis āra Diānae.There went too the son of Hippolytus, most handsome, to the war, Virbius, whom his mother Aricia sent out, a distinguished man, reared in the groves of Egeria around the moist shores, where the altar of Diana stands, rich and readily appeased. Aen. 7.765Namque ferunt fāmā Hippolytum, postquam arte novercae
occīderit patriāsque explērit sanguine poenās
turbātīs distractus equīs, ad sīdera rūrsus
aetheria et superās caelī vēnisse sub aurās,
Paeōniīs revocātum herbīs et amōre Diānae.For they say in story that Hippolytus, after he fell by the art of his stepmother and paid with his blood the penalty his father demanded, torn apart by frightened horses, came again to the stars of heaven and beneath the upper air of the sky, called back by Paeonian herbs and Diana's love. Aen. 7.770Tum pater omnipotēns, aliquem indignātus ab umbrīs
mortālem īnfernīs ad lūmina surgere vītae,
ipse repertōrem medicīnae tālis et artis
fulmine Phoebigenam Stygiās dētrūsit ad undās.Then the almighty father, indignant that any mortal should rise from the shades below to the light of life, himself hurled down with his thunderbolt to the Stygian waters the son of Phoebus, the discoverer of such healing and skill.
Aen. 7.774At Trivia Hippolytum sēcrētīs alma recondit
775sēdibus et nymphae Ēgeriae nemorīque relēgat,
sōlus ubi in silvīs Ītalīs ignōbilis aevom
exigeret versōque ubi nōmine Virbius esset.But kindly Trivia hides Hippolytus in a secret dwelling, and sends him away to the nymph Egeria and her grove, where alone, unknown, in the Italian woods, he might live out his life, and where, his name changed, he might be Virbius. Aen. 7.778Unde etiam templō Triviae lūcīsque sacrātīs
cornipedēs arcentur equī, quod lītore currum
780et iuvenem mōnstrīs pavidī effūdēre marīnīs.For this reason too horn-hoofed horses are kept away from the temple and sacred groves of Trivia, because, frightened by monsters from the sea, they flung out chariot and young man upon the shore. Aen. 7.781Fīlius ārdentis haud sētius aequore campī
exercēbat equōs currūque in bella ruēbat.Nonetheless his son was exercising fiery horses on the level plain and rushing to war in his chariot.
