Or still old grudges foster in thy breast,
Because thou Troy, and I the Grecians aid?

These Heaven decrees, and ever-fixed Fate.
But say, blest prophet, and the truth relate;

Will speak to, nor so much as look upon:
Silent she sits by sacred blood: ah, how
May she, poor shadow! her dear offspring know?
