Examples of using "Portais" in a sentence and their english translations:
Those fifty bridal chambers I behold / (so fair the promise of a future reign) / and spoil-deckt pillars of barbaric gold, / a wreck; where fails the flame, its place the Danaans hold.
"Then wars shall cease and savage times grow mild, / and Remus and Quirinus, brethren twain, / with hoary Faith and Vesta undefiled, / shall give the law. With iron bolt and chain / firm-closed the gates of Janus shall remain. / Within, the Fiend of Discord, high reclined / on horrid arms, unheeded in the fane, / bound with a hundred brazen knots behind, / and grim with gory jaws, his grisly teeth shall grind."
