{ Inglorious let him live, without a crown:

{ The father may be cast on coasts unknown,

{ Struggling with fate; but let me save the son.

Mine is Cythera, mine the Cyprian towers:

In those recesses, and those sacred bowers,

Obscurely let him rest; his right resign

To promised empire, and his Julian line.

Then Carthage may the Ausonian towns destroy,

Nor fear the race of a rejected boy.
