Meanwhile, nearly at sunset, the sea grows rough, darkness gathers, the blackness of night and of the storm-clouds hides the world, the lightning flashes between the clouds, the heaven is shaken with the thunder, hail mixed with torrents of rain dashes down in sudden showers; from all quarters all the winds burst forth, the wild whirlwinds arise, the sea boils with the surging waters.'--Quoted partly from Cic. De Div. i. 14; partly from De Orat. iii. 39.] [Footnote 29: 'The groaning of the ships' tackling, the dashing together of the ships, the uproar, the crash, the rattle of the thunder, and the whistling of the ropes.'] [Footnote 30: 'Give me your foot, that with the brown waters I may wash away the brown dust with those hands with which I have often rubbed gently the feet of Ulysses, and with my hands' softness soothe your weariness.'] [Footnote 31: 'It represented the deeds of Roman kings and generals: hence it is evident that at least it wanted the unity of time of the Greek tragedy; that it was a history like Shakspeare's.'--Niebuhr's Roman History, vol. i. note 1150.] [Footnote 32: Brutus, 28.] [Footnote 33: 'Decimus quidem Brutus, summus ille vir et imperator, Accii, amicissimi sui, carminibus templorum ac monumentorum aditus exornavit suorum.'--Chap. 11.] [Footnote 34: Hist. Nat. xxxiv. 10: 'Notatum ab auctoribus, et L. Accium poetam in Camenarum aede maxima forma statuam sibi posuisse, cum brevis admodum fuisset.'] [Footnote 35: Pro Plancio, 24.] [Footnote 36: De Orat. iii. 58.] [Footnote 37: 'Tereus, in his wild mood and savage spirit, gazed upon her, maddened with burning passion, quite desperate; in his madness, he resolves a cursed deed.'] [Footnote 38: 'Withdraw him within: for the lofty dignity of his aspect has moved my mind to compassion.'] [Footnote 39: 'That man indeed we pity whose nobleness gives distinction to his misery.'] [Footnote 40: 'Dost thou not know, that whatever rank fortune has assigned to a man, no meanness of station ever weakens a fine nature?'] [Footnote 41: 'This was the part of a man, to bear adversity easily.'] [Footnote 42: 'Though fortune could strip me of kingdom and wealth, it cannot strip me of my virtue.'] [Footnote 43: 'No nature is so strong, no breast so savage, which is not shaken by words, does not melt at misfortune.'] [Footnote 44: 'I trust not those augurs, who enrich the ears of others with their words, that they may enrich their own houses with gold.' There is of course a pun on the _auris_ and _auro_.]
