Aeneid, Book 1: Lines 247-260

Summary: Peace and Promises. Oh, and Jupiter smackin' a peck on Venus' lips. Incest! But not really.

Aeneid, Book 1: Lines 479-497

Summary: Well, the Trojan women go to the temple of Minerva who hates them and then Achilles drags Hector around for some gold. Aeneas doesn't like that and helps Priam out while some Africans and Amazon warriors get ready to kick butt. While all this is happening, Dido comes out of no where and Aeneas thinks she's finer than sliced...bread? 

Vocabulary to Know.

A general word list I found in the back of my copy of the Aeneid in Latin.
These should be good words to know when reading the Aeneid or in prep for the exam.

Aeneid, Book 1: Lines 335-352

Summary: Venus is talking to Aeneas while disguised as a huntress in very revealing clothes. She brushes it off as just being a custom (but we know better) before telling the tale of Dido's misfortune. Basically, she gets married to an awesome rich dude she loves but her brother is a hater and kills him.

Aeneid, Book 10: Lines 420-447

 Summary: Not much to say expect that people are fighting.

Rest of Book 4; English

So, Dido finishes her "Aeneas sucks" speech at this point. Aeneas, being the nice bro he is, actually pities Dido. Still, the gods are like "Nu-uh boy" so he's still going to Italy. He says "I sail for Italy not of my own free will." Isn't that nice? I'd think that should mean something to Dido but she still can't handle it and sends in her sister to persuade him (how would that accomplish anything?). Obviously, this doesn't work out.

Aeneid, Book 4: Lines 367-392

Summary: Dido complaining and more of a crazy ding dong than ever!
