Translated no macrons

Interea magno misceri murmure caelum incipit,

Meanwhile the heaven begins to be troubled with great murmuring,

insequitur commixta grandine numbus,

a storm cloud with hail mixed in pursues them,

et Tyrii comites passim et Troiana iuventius Dardaniusque nepos Veneris diversa per agros tecta metu petiere

both the Tyrian companions and the young Tojan men and Venus’ Dardanian grandson scattered over the field have in their fear sought various shelters;

ruunt de montibus amnes.

rivers rush down from the mountains.

speluncam Dido dux et Troianus eandem deveniunt.

Dido and the Trojan leader meet in the same cave.

prima et Tellus et pronuba Iuno dant signum;

Both primal Earth and Juno if brides give the signal;

fulsere ignes et conscius aether conubiis summoque ulularunt vertice Nymphae

lightning flashed and so did heaven as withness to the marriage and on the mountain peaks the Nymphs shrieked.

ille dies primus leti primusque malorum causa fuit;

That day was first and foremost the cause of death and of troubles;

neque enim specie famave movetur nec iam furtivum Dido meditatur amorem:

for neither even appearance nor reputation move Dido nor does she by now consider it a secret love:

coniugium vocat, hoc praetexit nomine culpam.

she calls it a marriage, with this name she covers her fault.
