Dido's Lament, from The Heroides

While stormie seas grow calme,

    while custom tempers love:

How patiently mishaps to beare,

    I shall the practise prove.

If not, my life to spill

    with full intent I mind:

Of crueltie thou canst not long

    in me a subject find.

Would God thou didst but see

    mine Image as I wright:

I wright, and full against my breast

    thy naked sword is pight.*

And downe my cheeks along

    the teares do trickling fall:

Which by and by in stead of teares,

    ingrayne in blood I shall.

– Ovid (43 BC-AD 17), translated by George Turberville (1567)

*pight - past tense of pitch, here signifying thrust
