Translation of "Labouring" in Portuguese

- The hands trying to untie the knots / the ribbons speckled on the forehead / of poisonous spit, horrendous cries / he goes vibrating, making the air pulsate.
- Both hands are labouring the fierce knots to pull; / black gore and slime his sacred wreaths distain. / Loud are his moans.

As mãos tentando os nós desapertar, / salpicadas as fitas sobre a fronte / de peçonhenta baba, horrendos gritos / ele vai desferindo, os ares atroando.

"But who are ye, pray answer? on what quest / come ye? and whence and whither are ye bound?" / Her then AEneas, from his inmost breast / heaving a deep-drawn sigh, with labouring speech addressed: / "O Goddess, should I from the first unfold, / or could'st thou hear, the annals of our woe, / eve's star were shining, ere the tale were told."

"Mas vós enfim quem sois, de onde é que vindes / e para onde estais indo?” A tais perguntas, / Eneias, suspirando e tendo a voz tocada / de profunda emoção, assim responde: / “Ó deusa, se eu tiver de relatar / desde o princípio as nossas desventuras, / e se vagar tiveres para ouvi-las, / Vésper do Olimpo as portas vai fechar, / findando o dia, antes que eu finde a história".
