This section was Juno pleading for help from Aeolus and his response to her. She tells him about how she despises Aeneas and needs his help to wreak havoc on him while in return promising him beautiful nymphs (especially Deiopea) as a reward. Aeolus agrees to help her (although he really shouldn't because it's against the rules of his job) and what he does is also described within this passage.
Some vocabulary I had trouble with:
- agmine
- litora
- gens
- puppes
- victosque
Grammar:
- There are imperatives in line 69!
- I was confused as to what 'bis' agrees with in line 90
- I couldn't find the direct object in line 79
- I wasn't sure about the ablative absolute in line 81
- or the case of 'nubes' in line 88
