Aeneid 2.402-419 (Cassandra is Taken)

"Ah, it is not right

heu nihil fas

that anyone should put faith quemquam fidere

in gods when they're against you

divis invitis

Look!

ecce

Priam's virgin [daughter] Cassandra

Priameia virgo Cassandra

was being dragged,

trahebatur

with her hair streaming behind,

passis crinibus

/by her streaming hair,

passis crinibus

from the temple

a templo

and sanctuary of Minerva,

adytisque Minervae

reaching her burning eyes

tendens ardentia lumina

to heaven in vain:

ad caelum frustra,

her eyes!

lumina!

nam arcebant vincula

her gentle hands

teneras palmas.

Coroebus could not stand this sight,

non tulit hanc speciem Coroebus

maddened in mind,

furiata mente

and hurled himself

et sese iniecit

into the middle of the battle,

medium in agmen

intending to die.

periturus;

We all follow him, and,

consequimur cuncti et

with close-packed weapons,

densis armis

we charge in.

incurrimus

we were overwhelmed

obruimur

by spears of our [own men],

telis nostrorum

from the high summit of the temple,

ex alto delubri culmine

and most wretched slaughter

-que miserrima caedes

was caused

oritur

by the look of our armour,

armorum facie

and the confusion

et errore

arising from our Greek crests.

Graiarum iubarum

Then the Danaans,

tum Danai

gathered from all sides,

undique collecti

with a groan and anger

gemitu atque ira

that the girl had been snatched away,

ereptae virginis

rush us,

invadunt,

Ajax the most callous,

acerrimus Aiax

and the two sons of Atreus,

et gemini Atridae

and all the Greek army:

Dolopumque exercitus omnis:

just as,

ceu

when conflicting winds clash,

adversi quondam venti confligunt

when a storm has broken out,

rupto turbine

the west wind, the south, and the east

Zephyrusque Notusque et Eurus

happy with Dawn's horses:

Eoi laetus equis

the woods roar,

stridunt silvae

& sea-foamy Nereus rages

saevitque spumeus Nereus

with his trident,

tridenti

and stirs the waters

atque ciet aequora

from their lowest depths.
