Turnus who had outstripped his tardy column,
with twenty chosen horsemen after him,
comes first upon the city, unobserved.
He is mounted on a piebald Thracian stallion,
his golden helmet has a crimson crest:
"Young men, who will be first to face these Trojans
together with me? Look!" he cries and casts
his javelin high in the air. The fight
begins. Bold Turnus rides across the fields.
His comrades take his shout up, follow him
with horrid din; they marvel at the coward
hearts of the Teucrians, at how they shun
the level plain and will not fight but hug
their camp. Fantastic Turnus scans the walls;
he rides from this side back to that, seeking
an entrance where there is none. Even as
a wolf who waits outside the full sheepfold
will howl beside the pens at midnight, facing
both wind and storm; beneath their dams the sheltered
lambs keep bleating; fierce and desperate
with rage, the wolf is wild against his absent
prey; after such long famine now the frenzy
for food, his dry and bloodless jaws torment him:
just so, as he surveys the wall and camp,
is Turnus' anger kindled; indignation
is hot in his hard bones.
– Turnus attacks the new-built Trojan city, from Book IX of Virgil's Aeneid, translated by Allen Mandelbaum (1971)
