Aeneid 5 Flashcards
Aeneas mortem contra praesensque minatur exitium, si quisquam adeat, terretque trementis excisurum urbem minitans et saucius instat.
Aeneas in return threatens death and instant destruction, if anyone should approach [him], and terrifies [them as they tremble], threatening to be about to tear down the city, and [though] wounded presses on.
ille simul fugiens Rutulos simul increpat omnes nomine quemque vocans notumque efflagitat ensem.
He at the same time fleeing, at the same time shouts angrily at all the Rutulians, calling on each one by name, and demands his familiar sword.
quinque orbis explent cursu totidemque retexunt huc illuc; neque enim levia aut ludicra petuntur praemia, sed Turni de vita et sanguine certant.
They complete five circles at a run, and unravel the same number hither [and] thither. For neither trivial or sporting rewards are being sought but they are competing about the life and blood of Turnus.
