Excerpt from The Works of Virgil, Vol. 2 What gusts of weather from that gath'ring cloud My thoughts presa e Ere yet the tempest Stand to your tack e, mates, and stretch your oars; Contract your swelling sails, and lufi' to wind.

Mark, how 'the shifting winds from west arise, And what collected night involves the skies! Nor can our shaken vessels live at sea, Much less against the tempest force their way.

Book Description

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
