THE AENEID: VIRGIL
Translated by
ROBERT FITZGERALD
.
An excellent translation.
I sing of warfare and a man at war.
From the sea-coast of Troy in early days
He came to Italy by destiny,
The Latin is also beautiful but a bit more succinct.
Arma virumque cano, Troiae qui primus ab oris
Italiam, fato profugus, Laviniaque venit litora....

I am still on THE AENEID.
This is going to take some time.
Robert Fritzerald translation is best read after dinner while sipping
something with fortification.
