Tost

Full many an evil, through the mindful hate / of cruel Juno, from the gods he bore, / much tost on earth and ocean.

So fired with rage, the Trojans' scanty train / by fierce Achilles and the Greeks unslain / she barred from Latium, and in evil strait / for many a year, on many a distant main / they wandered, homeless outcasts, tost by fate.

While up the crag AEneas climbs, to gain / full prospect far and wide, and scan the distant main. / If aught of Phrygian biremes he discern / Antheus or Capys, tost upon the seas, / or arms of brave Caicus high astern.

"Whosoe'er thou be, / be kind, for strangers and in evil case / we roam, tost hither by the stormy sea."

"From ancient Troy – if thou the name dost know – / a chance-met storm hath driven us to and fro, / and tost us on the Libyan shores."

"Me hath Fortune willed / long tost, like you, through sufferings, here to rest / and find at length a refuge. Not unskilled / in woe, I learn to succour the distrest."

"Thou know'st, who oft hast sorrowed with my pain, / how, tost by Juno's rancour, o'er the main / thy brother wanders."

How then ſhould I without another wit : thinck euer to endure ſo tædious toyle, ſins that this one is toſt with troublous fit,

A wanderer, here by fortune tost, / My way, my friends, my courser lost, / I ne'er before, believe me, fair, / Have ever drawn your mountain air, / Till on this lake's romantic strand, / I found a fay in fairy land.

Go, fetch me a quart of Sacke, put a toſt in't.
