1. iam primum omnium satis constat Troia capta in ceteros saevitum esse Troianos; duobus, Aeneae Antenorique, et vetusti iure hospitii et quia pacis reddendaeque Helenae semper auctores fuerunt, omne ius belli Achivos abstinuisse; [2] casibus deinde variis Antenorem cum multitudine Enetum, qui seditione ex Paphlagonia pulsi et sedes et ducem rege Pylaemene ad Troiam amisso quaerebant, venisse in intimum maris Hadriatici sinum, [3] Euganeisque, qui inter mare Alpesque incolebant, pulsis Enetos Troianosque eas tenuisse terras. et in quem primum egressi sunt locum, Troia vocatur. pagoque inde Troiano nomen est; gens universa Veneti appellati.

[4] Aeneam ab simili clade domo profugum, sed ad maiora rerum initia ducentibus fatis primo in Macedoniam venisse, inde in Siciliam quaerentem sedes delatum, ab Sicilia classe ad Laurentem agrum tenuisse. Troia et huic loco nomen est. [5] ibi egressi Troiani, ut quibus ab inmenso prope errore nihil praeter arma et naves superesset, cum praedam ex agris agerent, Latinus [p. 5] rex Aboriginesque, qui tum ea tenebant loca, ad arcendam vim advenarum armati ex urbe atque agris concurrunt. [6] duplex inde fama est: alii proelio victum Latinum pacem cum Aenea, deinde affinitatem iunxisse tradunt; [7] alii, cum instructae acies constitissent, priusquam signa canerent, processisse Latinum inter primores ducemque advenarum evocasse ad conloquium; percunctatum deinde, qui mortales essent, unde aut quo casu profecti domo quidve quaerentes in agrum Laurentem exissent, [8] postquam audierit multitudinem Troianos esse, ducem Aeneam, filium Anchisae et Veneris, cremata patria domo profugos sedem condendaeque urbi locum quaerere, et nobilitatem admiratum gentis virique et animum vel bello vel paci paratum dextra data fidem futurae amicitiae sanxisse. [9] inde foedus ictum inter duces, inter exercitus salutationem factam; Aeneam apud Latinum fuisse in hospitio; ibi Latinum apud penates deos domesticum publico adiunxisse foedus filia Aeneae in matrimonium data. [10] ea res utique Troianis spem adfirmat tandem stabili certaque sede finiendi erroris. [11] oppidum condunt; Aeneas ab nomine uxoris Lavinium appellat. brevi stirpis quoque virilis ex novo matrimonio fuit, cui Ascanium parentes dixere nomen.
