At once Allecto, steeped in Gorgon poison,
makes first for Latium and the high palace
of the Laurentian chieftain. There she sits
before the silent threshold of the queen,
Amata, who is kindled by a woman's
anxieties and anger, seething over
the Trojans' coming, Turnus' thwarted wedding.
Then from her blue-gray hair the goddess cast
a snake deep in Amata's secret breast,
that, maddened by the monster, she might set
at odds all of her household. And the serpent
glides on, between the queen's smooth breasts and dress,
and winds its way unnoticed; by deceit
it breathes its viper breath into her frenzy.
The giant snake becomes a twisted necklace
of gold, a long headband to bind her hair,
and slithers down her limbs.
– Allecto's serpent possesses Queen Amata, from Book VII of Virgil's Aeneid, translated by Allen Mandelbaum (1971)
