"Nothing is heard upon the mountains now,  
But pensive herds that for their master low,  
Straggling and comfortless about they rove,  
Unmindful of their pasture and their love."  
Moschus, id. 3, parodied, ibid.  
"
To close the pomp, Æthon, the steed of state,  
Is led, the funeral of his lord to wait.  
Stripp'd of his trappings, with a sullen pace  
He walks, and the big tears run rolling down his face."  
Dryden's Virgil, bk. ii

49 --Some brawny bull.  
"Like to a bull, that with impetuous spring  
Darts, at the moment when the fatal blow  
Hath struck him, but unable to proceed  
Plunges on either side."  
--Carey's Dante: Hell, c. xii.
