So spoke Anchises; then led forth his son [Note 1],
The Sibyl with him, to the assembled shades
(A voiceful throng), and on a lofty mound
His station took, whence plainly could be seen
The long procession, and each face descried.

et tumulum capit unde omnis longo ordine posset
aduersos legere et uenientum discere uultus.
