In these lines, Aeneas is trying to think of how to break the news to Dido, but she finds out on her own. She knew, seemingly right away, that something was wrong, and she went to Aeneas in a mad rage. Dido goes crazy at the thought of him leaving her, and expresses it in the speech she makes to Aeneas during this passage.
