This book collects phrases and sayings from the poetry of Vergil. The sayings are organized into centuries and decades, with a listing at the front of the book. Each of the sayings is then accompanied by a brief essay in Latin, usually just a paragraph but sometimes longer. Sometimes they are true proverbs, while in other cases they are phrases that have been popularized precisely by their use in Vergil.
