Translation of "L'infortuné" in English

L'infortuné Priam, dans ses tendres alarmes, / pour ce malheureux fils craignant le sort des armes, / l'avait au roi de Thrace, infidèle allié, / avec de grands trésors en secret envoyé, / pour conserver ses jours et former sa jeunesse.

This Polydorus Priam from the war / to Thracia's King in secret had consigned / with store of gold, when, girt with siege, he saw / Troy's towers, and trust in Dardan arms resigned.

" Elle-même, tonnant du milieu des nuages, / bouleversa les mers, déchaîna les orages, / dans un noir tourbillon saisit l'infortuné / qui vomissait des feux de son flanc sillonné, / et de son corps lancé sur des roches perçantes / attacha les lambeaux à leurs pointes sanglantes. "

- "She herself hurled the swift lightning bolt of Jupiter from the clouds, scattered the boats, and overturned the seas with the winds; she snatched him in a whirlwind while he was breathing out flames from his pierced chest, and impaled him on a sharp rock."
- "She, hurling Jove's winged lightning, stirred the deep / and strewed the ships. Him, from his riven breast / the flames outgasping, with a whirlwind's sweep / she caught and fixed upon a rock's sharp crest."
