Too late. The queen is caught between love’s
pain and press. She feeds the wound within her
veins; she is eaten by a secret flame. Aeneas’
high name, all eh has done, again, again come
like a flood. His face, his words hold fast her
breast. Care strips her limbs of clam and rest.

Her towers rise no more; the young of Carthage
* no longer exercise at arms or build
* their harbors or sure battlements for war;
* the works are idle, broken off; the massive,
* menacing rampart walls, even the crane,
* defier of the sky, now lie neglected.

4.128-228

A

Dido and the Trojan chieftain have reached the same cave.
Primal Earth and Juno, queen of marriages, together now give
their signal: lightning fires flash, the upper air is witness to
their mating, and from the highest hilltops shout the nymphs.
That was her first day of death and ruin. For neither how
things seem nor how they are deemed moves Dido now, and
she no longer thinks of furtive love. For Dido calls it marriage,
and with this name she covers up her fault

A

4.251-259
She [Rumor] sang of what was done
And what was fiction, chanting that Aeneas,
One born of Trojan blood, had come, that lovely
Dido has deigned to join herself to him,
That now , in lust, forgetful of their kingdom,
They take long pleasure, fondling through the winter,
The slaves of squalid cravings.

She [his mother] did not save him twice
from Grecian arms for this—but to be master
of Italy, a land that teems with empire
and seethes with war; to father a race from Teucer’s
high blood, to place all earth beneath his laws.
but if the brightness of such deeds is not
enough to kindle him, if he cannot
attempt the task for his own fame, does he—
a father—grudge Ascanius the walls
of Rome? [Jove speaking]

As soon as his winged feet have touched the
outskirts,
he sees Aeneas founding fortresses
And fashioning new houses. And his sword
Was starred with tawny jasper, and the cloak
That draped his should blazed with Tyrian purple—
A gift that wealthy Dido wove for him;
She had run golden thread long the web.

And Mercury attacks at once. “Are you
now laying the foundation of high Carthage,
as servant to a woman, building her
a splendid city here? Are you forgetful
of what is your own kingdom, your own fate?
The very god of gods, whose power sways
both earth and heaven, sends me down to you
from bright Olympus. He himself has asked me
to carry these commands through the swift air:
what are you pondering or hoping for
while squandering your ease in Libyan fields?
