To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
what mourning you will cause by Many a sad Dardanian pyre ; Pallas now prepares her oegis, Helm, and car, with reckless ire.
All in vain you comb those tresses, Fondly trusting Venus' aids ; All in vain you touch those harp-strings, Striking chords erst left for maids ; Softest couches will not shield you Shield you from the Grecian blades.
Surely 'it is not so you purpose Shunning winged Cretan bows, Shunning all the din of battle, Ajax fleetest of your foes, 30 Vainly ! that vile head is dest...ined, None too soon, to feed the crows.
See you not Laertes' offspring !
Bane of your devoted race ? See you not the honoured Nestor ?
Teucer, too, whom you must face ? Salamis will find him for you, Warrior of unequalled grace.
9 6 ODES OF HORACE.
See you not that matchless soldier, Sthenelus, so skilled to tame 4 Fiery steeds ; and noble Meryon ? Well, methinks, you know his name !
See, Tydides burns to find you, Born to dim his father's fame.
Like a frightened stag you'will flee him, Stag that hears the baying hound, And, unmindful of his grazing, Spurns the turf with lightest bound.
