Long labors, both by sea and land, he bore, And in the doubtful war, before he won The Latian realm, and built the destin\\'d town; His banish\\'d gods restor\\'d to rites divine, And settled sure succession in his line, From whence the race of Alban fathers come, And the long glories of majestic Rome\".”",
