summary:
  Fate sends AEneas to Latium to found Rome, but Juno''s hostility long And bear thy brave AEneas to the skies. Glad news I bear thee, of thy comrades brought, All else confirms the tale thy mother told thee plain." Shall lock thee in her arms, and press her lips to thine, O''er every land and sea, far from thy native home." Lead on, my son, I yield and follow on thy way.'' The Fates will find a way, and Phoebus hear thy prayer. Pray thou to heaven and, having gained thy prayer, O think with whom thou leav''st me to thy fate, One in the deep thy son shall look for, but in vain." If Fate shall call thee, ''twill thy touch obey; Reach forth thy hand, and bear me to my rest, His arms and spoils thy sacred oak shall bear." This field shall end the war, thy fatal hour is near."

summary:
  All shall concede thy right: do what thou wilt, That close the temple of the God of War. Be thou my help, to me e''en now divine! Thy Caesar, conqueror by land and sea, Fierce rabid war: the sword shall bear the rule Do thou live on thy peaceful life apart Nought, Rome, shall tear thee from me, till I hold Thou seek''st thy fated fall; not that the gods, Thy sword kills not our pledges; civil war Art little worthy: never shall thy blood ''Neath Caesar''s conquering hand the banded world. Thou seekest, Caesar, here our arms and swords To quit thy crimes; thou seek''st by land and sea So long shall Caesar plunge the world in war? Here, Caesar, was thy crime: and here shall stay Again shall flow upon thy fated earth Nor yet Pompeius'' death shall close the war, Thine ancient love to Caesar, and thy life.
