quos circumfusos sic est adfata Sibylla, Musaeum ante omnis; medium nam plurima turba hunc habet atque umeris exstantem suspicit altis: dicite, felices animae, tuque, optime vates, quae regio Anchisen, quis habet locus? illius ergo venimus et magnos Erebi tranavimus amnis.
These, as they streamed round, the Sibyl thus addressed, Musaeus before all; for he is centre of that vast throng that gazes up to him, as with shoulders high he towers aloft: Say, happy souls, and you, best of bards, what land, what place holds Anchises? For his sake are we come, and have sailed across the great rivers of Erebus.
