Reflection on lines 159-178

In these lines, Dido gives a speech to the Trojans in response to the one from Ilioneus. She says that they are welcome in her city and she will help them in any way that is possible. She also offers them a chance to permanently reside there if they so choose. Lastly, Dido wonders where their king is, and promises to send out a search party in hopes of finding him.
