quis genus Aeneadum, quis Troiae nesciat urbem virtutesque virosque aut tanti incendia belli? non obtusa adeo gestamus pectora Poeni, nec tam aversus equos Tyria Sol iungit ab urbe.
Who could be ignorant of the race of Aeneas people, who of Troys town and her brave deeds and brave men, or of the fires of that great war? Not so dull are our Punic hearts, and not so far from this Tyrian city does the sun yoke his steeds.
