The Whole Works of Homer | ||
The Argvment.
King Diomed (by Pallas spirit inspir'd,With will and powre) is for his acts admir'd:
Meere men, and men deriu'd from Deities,
And Deities themselues, he terrifies;
Addes wounds to terrors: his inflamed lance
Drawes blood from Mars, and Venus: In a trance
He casts Æneas, with a weightie stone;
Apollo quickens him, and gets him gone:
Mars is recur'd by Pæon; but by Ioue
Rebuk't, for authoring breach of humane loue.
