Virgil: Aeneid IV by Virgil
Dido, queen of Carthage, is inflamed by love for Aeneas. The goddesses Juno and Venus plot to unite them, and their 'marriage' is consummated in a cave during a hunt. However, Jupiter sends Mercury to remind Aeneas of his duty, and the hero departs despite Dido's passionate pleas. Dido commits suicide.
Keith MacLennan was Head of Classics at Rugby School. He is the editor of Virgil: Aeneid VI, also published by Duckworth.
