Translation of "Recebidas" in English

Rápido, as ordens recebidas executa, / conseguindo que os penos renunciem / às suas intenções inamistosas; / e, o que é mais importante, a soberana / assuma, em relação aos teucros, sentimentos / de paz e um coração benevolente.

The Tyrians, yielding to the god, abate / their fierceness. Dido, more than all the rest, / warms to her Phrygian friends, and wears a kindly breast.

Mas, temendo esse risco, o pai onipotente / em caverna sombria os encerrou, / pondo por cima a massa colossal / de altos rochedos, e lhes deu um rei / que soubesse, mediante certo pacto, / as rédeas encurtar, ou afrouxá-las, / conforme as ordens recebidas.

- But in fear of this, the almighty father hid them in black caves, and placed a mound and high mountains over them, and he gave them a king who, under a binding agreement, would know both to suppress them and to give them loose reins, when ordered.
- But, fearing this, the Sire omnipotent / hath buried them in caverns dark and deep, / and o'er them piled huge mountains in a heap, / and set withal a monarch, there to reign, / by compact taught at his command to keep / strict watch, and tighten or relax the rein.
