He spake, and bade choose horses out from all his noble tale,

Whereof three hundred sleek and fair stood in the stables high:

These biddeth he for Teucrian men be led forth presently,

Wing-footed purple-bearing beasts, with pictures o'er them flung

Of woven stuff, and, on their breasts are golden collars hung:

Gold-housed are they, and champ in teeth the yellow-golden chain

But to Æneas, absent thence, a car and yoke-beasts twain

He sends: the seed of heaven are they, and breathing very fire,

The blood of those that Circe stole when she beguiled her sire,

That crafty mistress, winning them, bastards, from earthy mare.

So back again Æneas' folk high on their horses fare,

Bearing Latinus' gifts and words, and all the tale of peace.
