Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Aeneid of Virgil: Translated Into English Blank Verse In translation of the great Roman epic here offered to the public, I have endeavored to fulfil two necessary requirements: first, to render the original Latin as literally and concisely into pure idiomatic English as could be consistent with strict metrical form; and, secondly, to make it, as ably as I could, a poem, retaining somewhat of the spirit of the original. I have made an earnest attempt to do what I believe has not yet been successfully done, - a faithful rendering of the Æneid into fluent, poetic, yet compact and carefully constructed blank verse. All the best poetical translations of it into English, hitherto, have been done chiefly in rhymed couplets; and all, whatever their other merits, have failed more or less in fidelity, for the simple reason that they are rhymed. One need only compare the best known version, Dryden's, with the Latin, to see the lamentable transformations the old Roman bard has suffered (even when piloted by a poet) at the hands of that seductive siren, Rhyme.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Aeneid of Virgil: Freely Translated Into English Blank Verse I would ask, however, to be judged on my dealing with the best portions and passages of my author; and a little reflection will, I think, suffice to acquit me of presump tion herein There is no end of passages in Homer, ' writes Cowper, in his Preface to the second edition of his translation of the Iliad, which must creep unless they are lifted; and to give relief to such without seeming unseasonably tumid, is extremely difficult.' And although Virgil has very few indeed of such passages, yet has he occasionally - and this only in common with all fiction writers of antiquity - narratives and details wholly and exclusively belonging to the 'classical age, to which it is impossible, in anything of a faithful rendering, to impart positive interest or attractiveness for a modern who reads them in his own language - omarz' res z'psa negat. The portions, then, of my work on which I would desire to be specially tried are those which purport to render what the classical reader will pronounce to be the best passages and portions of the original; in the other parts of my version I shall be content, as I trust my reader will also be, if I do not sink below the level of ordinary poetical diction and style.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Virgil's AEneid: Translated Literally, Line by Line, Into English Dactylic Hexameter The second noteworthy attempt at a metrical version in English of any part of the [eneid was in 1557, by Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey, who translated the 2d and 4th Books into blank verse, a meter invented by himself, but which has since taken such high rank in English versifica tion. This was a work of much literary ability; but unfortunately his public duties prevented him from carrying it to completion. It is still by many highly prized for its closeness to the original, being a line by line translation, and for its vigorous and pure English diction.
