II.57-66

Ecce, manus juvenem interea post terga revinctum
pastores magno ad regem clamore trahebant
Dardanidae, qui se ignotum venientibus ultro,
hoc ipsum ut strueret Trojamque aperiret Achivis,
obtulerat, fidens animi atque in utrumque paratus,
seu versare dolos seu certae occumbere morti.
Undique visendi studio Trojana juventus
circumfusa ruit certantque inludere capto.
Accipe nunc Danaum insidias et crimne ab uno
disce omnis.

SWIMTAG Book II 50-53

Sounds: Note the alliteration: curvam cambagibus...contorsit perhaps emphsizing the size of the belly by joining the sounds of the words describing with ths literary tool.

Word Order: Note the example of synchesis (interlocked word order) validis ingentem viribus hastam this illustrates how the spear was infused with forceful power

Imagery: curvam campagibus alvum-the belly curved with seems provides a vivid image for the how the horse must have looked.

Mood: Aeneas shows his frustration at the inability of the Trojans to see the horse for what it was there by preventing the history of things to come

Theme: How the Trojans should have seen the horse for what it was but because of events beyond their control their fate was sealed.

Allusions: using feri to stand in for the horse (Metonymy) using the word feri or wild beast to represent the horse illustrates the danger of the horse to the civilization of Troy.

Grammar: Note the grammar of the word fatus in line 50. The PPP serves as your subject as it is utilized as a substantive adjective. Having spoken thus. Note also that fatus is a deponent verb.

Aeneid II 31-56

Pars stupet innuptae donum exitiale Minervae
et molem mirantur equi; primusque Thymoetes
duci intra muros hortatur et arce locari,
sive dolo seu jam Trojae sic fata ferebant.
At Capys, et quorum melior sententia menti,
aut pelago Danaum insidias suspectaque dona
praecipitare jubent sujectisque urere flammis, (Jubent is main verb, praecipitare, urere, terebrare and temptare are complimentary infinitives)
aut terebrare cavas uteri et temptare latebras.
Scinditur incertum studia in contraria vulgus.
Primus ibi ante omnis magna comitante caterva (Ablative Absolute)
Laocoon ardens summa decurrit ab arce,
et procul: 'O miseri, quae tanta insania, cives?
Creditis avectos hostis? Aut ulla putatis (Creditis avectos is an indirect statement)
dona carere dolis Danaum? Sic notus Ulixes?
Aut huc inclusi ligno occultantur Achivi,
aut haec in nostros fabricata est machina muros,
inspectura domos venturaque desuper urbi
aut aliquis latet error; equo ne credite Teucri.
Quidquid id est, timeo Danaos et dona ferentis.'
Sic fatus validis ingentem viribus hastam
in latus inque feri curvam campagibus alvum
contorsit. Stetit illa tremens, uteroque recusso
insonuere cavae gemitumque dedere cavernae.
Et, si fata deum, si mens non laeva fuisset,
impulerat ferro Argolicas foedare latebras,
Trojaque nunc staret, Priamique arx alta maneres.

Book I.1-11

Arma virumque cano, Troiae qui primus ab oris
Italiam fato profugus Laviniaque venit
litora-multum ille et terris iactatus et alto
vi superum, saevae memorem Iunonis ob iram.
multa quoque et bello passus, dum conderet urbem
inferretque deos Latio-genus unde Latinum
Albanique patres atque altae moenia romae.
Musa mihi causas memora, quo numine laeso
quidve dolens regina deum tot volvere casus
insignem pietate virum tot adire labores
impulerit. Tantaene animis caelestibus irae?

I sing of wars and a man, who came first from the shores of Troy
to Italy and the Lavinian shoreline a fugitive from
fate-that man was tossed a great deal on the lands and sea
by the power of the gods,

13-20

Fracti bello fatisque repulsi
ductores Danaum tot jam labentibus annis
instar montis equum divina Palladis arte
aedificant, sectaque intexunt abiete costas;
votum pro reditu simulant; ea fama vagatur.
Huc delecta virum sortiti corpora furtim
includunt caeco lateri penitusque cavernas
ingentis uterumque armato milite complent.

1-12

Conticuere omnes intentieque ora tenebant.
Inde toro pater Aeneas sic orsus ab alto:
"Infandum, regina, jubes renovare dolorem,
Trojanas ut opes et lamentabile regnum
eruerint Danai, quaeque ipse miserrma vidi
et quorum pars magna fui. Quis talia fando
Mymidonum Dolopumve aut duri miles Ulixi
temperet a lacrimis? Et jam nox umida caelo
praecipitat suadentqe cadentia sidera somnos.
Sed si tantus amor casus cognoscere nostros
et breviter Trojae supremum audire laborem,
quamquam animus meminisse horret luctuque refugit
incipiam,

Book 2.391-401

Arma dabunt ipsi.' Sic fatis deinde comantem
Androgeo galeam clipeique insigne decorum
induitur laterique Argivum accommodat ensem.
Hoc rhipeus, hoc ipse Dymas omnisque juventus
laeta facit: spoliis se quisque recentibus armat.
Vadimus immixti Danais haud numine nostro
multaque per caecam congressi proelia noctem
conserimus, multos Danaum demittimus Orco.
Diffugiunt alii ad navis et litora cursu
fida petun; pars ingentem formidine turpi
scandunt rursus equum et nota conduntur in alvo.

Book 2.378-390

Obstipuit retroque pedem cum voce repressit.
Improvisum aspris veluti qui sentibus anguem
pressit humi nitens trepidusque repente refugit
attollentem iras et caerula colla tumentem,
haud secus Androgeos visu temefactus abibat.
Inruimus densis et circumfundimur armis,
ignarosque loci passim et formidine captos
sternimus. Aspirat primo Fortuno labori.
Atque hic successu exsultans animisque Coroebus
'O socci, qua prima' inquit 'fortuna salutis
monstrat iter, quaque ostendit se dextra, sequamur:
mutemus cipeos Danaumque insignia nobis
aptemus. Dolus an virtus, quis in hoste requirat?
