Thither his warlike train the Trojan led,

Refreshed his men, and wearied horses fed.

Meantime the mother goddess, crowned with charms,

Breaks through the clouds, and brings the fated arms.

Within a winding vale she finds her son,

On the cool river's banks, retired alone.

She shews her heavenly form without disguise,

And gives herself to his desiring eyes.

"Behold (she said) performed, in every part,

My promise made, and Vulcan's laboured art.
