Excerpt from The Works of Virgil, Vol. 2
What gusts of weather from that gath'ring cloud My thoughts presa e Ere yet the tempest Stand to your tack e, mates, and stretch your oars; Contract your swelling sails, and lufi' to wind. The frighted crew perform the task assign'd. Then, to his fearless chief, Not beav'o (said he) Though Jove himself should promise italy, Can stem the torrent of this raging sea. Mark, how 'the shifting winds from west arise, And what collected night involves the skies!
Nor can our shaken vessels live at sea, Much less against the tempest force their way.
