The Æneids of Virgil, Done into English Verse Aeneids of Virgil, Done into English Verse Produced by Thierry Alberto, Josephine Paolucci and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at https://www.pgdp.net "The Æneids of Virgil, Done into English Verse by William Morris" is a poetic narrative that presents an epic tale written in the late 19th century. The story follows Æneas, a Trojan hero, as he embarks on a tumultuous journey from the ruins of Troy to Italy, encountering numerous challenges and divine interventions along the way. At its core, the work explores themes of fate, struggle, and the founding of nations, setting the stage for significant historical legacies. The opening of the text introduces Æneas and his beleaguered crew as they are marooned on the shores of Libya after being cast about by a tempest at sea. As they recover from the storm, Æneas looks to the vast expanse of water to find missing comrades, while the narrative hints at the impending encounter with Dido, the Queen of Carthage. Juno’s wrath and Venus’s intervention foreshadow the divine forces at play in Æneas’s struggle for destiny, establishing a tension between human effort and divine will. Ultimately, the passage sets the foundation for the epic tale of adventure, longing, and fate that will unfold as Æneas endeavors to establish his legacy in a new land.
