My child, when you reach
strange shores, and your food
Is gone, and hunger makes you eat
your tables,
[Anchises said]
Then trust that home
and rest are there. Be mindful,
Lay buildings out and raise
defensive walls.
This is that hunger [said Aeneas],
waiting till the end
To put a limit to our exile.
