Troy

One pound troy weighs 12 oz.

The Greeks besieged Troy for ten years.

I sing of arms and the man, who first from the mouth of Troy, exiled by fate, came to Italy and the Lavinian shore.

Troy uses his position for personal gain.

Do that for me, my son, delay no more, nor mention Troy again.

I sing of arms and the man, made a fugitive by fate, who first came from the coasts of Troy, to Italy and the Lavinian shores.

Saturn's daughter, fearing it, and remembering the protracted war which she had first waged at Troy on behalf of her beloved Argives -- the causes of her anger and her fierce grievances had still not died down in her soul.

Juno then, as a suppliant, addressed him in these words: "Aeolus (for the father of the gods has granted you authority to calm the seas and to stir them up with the winds), a race hateful to me is sailing upon the Tyrrhenian sea, carrying Troy along with its conquered gods to Italy."

With a sudden chill weakening every part of his body, Aeneas groans and, stretching both hands to the stars, cries out thus: "O thrice and four times blessed, whose lot it was to perish before the faces of their fathers under the high walls of Troy!"

Of arms I sing, and of the man, whom Fate / first drove from Troy to the Lavinian shore.
