Nevertheless, I don’t hate Aeneas, no matter how wrongly he thinks,
but I complain of treachery, and I, complaining, love the treacherous one
worse. Show mercy, Venus, to your daughter-in-law, and may brother
love embrace his hostile brother; let him be a soldier in your camp!
But I, who began this love (and I did not even look down on it), may he
present material for my care! I was misled, and that same image is
thrown to mistaken me: he disagreed with the character of his mother.
Stones and mountains and natural hardwood from high cliffs of raging and
wild beasts had begat you, or the sea, such as you now see to be set into
motion by each woman with the winds, by which you still prepare to go with
the hostile waves. Where do you flee? The winter stands in the way:
let the grace of the winter do well for me. Look so that you may
see the wind stirring up the wandering waves.
