Again,

"--_Fotum Gremio dea tollit in altos
Idaliæ lucos._

Dr. _Trapp_,

"--And on her Bosom hush'd,
Carries him to _Idalia_'s lofty Groves.--

Mr. _Pit_,

"Lull'd in her Lap to rest, the Queen of Love
Conveys him to the soft _Idalian_ Grove.

Again,

"--_Ubi tot Simois correpta sub undis
Scuta virûm, galeasque, & fortia corpora volvit,_

Dr. _Trapp_,

"Where _Simois_ in his rapid Torrent rolls
So many Warriour Bodies, Helms and Shields.

Mr. _Pit_,

"Where _Simois_ Streams incumber'd with the Slain,
Roll'd Shields, and Helms, and Heroes to the Main.
