They fill the dome with supplicating cries.
The priestess then the shining veil displays,
Placed on Minerva's knees, and thus she prays:
"Oh awful goddess! ever-dreadful maid,
Troy's strong defence, unconquer'd Pallas, aid!
Break thou Tydides' spear, and let him fall
Prone on the dust before the Trojan wall!
So twelve young heifers, guiltless of the yoke,

Dryden's Virgil, ii. 825.

"Wherefore do I assume
These royalties and not refuse to reign,
Refusing to accept as great a share
Of hazard as of honour, due alike to him
Who reigns, and so much to him due
Of hazard more, as he above the rest
High honour'd sits."
--"Paradise Lost," ii. 450.
227 --_Each equal weight._
"Long time in even scale
The battle hung."
--"Paradise Lost," vi. 245.

_Gloomy as night._"
--"Paradise Lost," vi. 831
