As soon as Jove's dear wife sees that her Dido
is in the grip of such a scourge and that
no honor can withstand this madness, then
the daughter of Saturn faces Venus: "How
remarkable indeed: what splendid spoils
you carry off, you and your boy; how grand
and memorable is the glory if
one woman is beaten by the guile of two
gods."
– Juno reproaches Venus for inciting Dido to love Aeneas, from Book IV of Virgil's Aeneid, translated by Allen Mandelbaum (1971)
