the dank night is sweeping down from the skyand the setting stars incline our heads to sleep.

~ Virgil

Virgil Aeneas Greek Myth Mythology The Aeneid Trojan Troy Virgil

The signs of the old flame, I know them well.I pray that the earth gape deep enough to take me downor the almighty Father blast me with one bolt to the shades,the pale, glimmering shades in hell, the pit of night,before I dishonor you, my conscience, break your laws.
