“Man of Troy, great in fame, greater in battle, how can I sing your praises to the skies? What to commend first? Your sense of justice, your awesome works of war? Surely we’ll carry back to our walls these words of yours with grateful hearts, 150 and if Fortune points the way, ally you with our king, Latinus. Turnus can find his allies for himself. We’ll even be glad to raise your mighty walls ordained by Fate, glad to shoulder up the foundation stones of Troy!”
