Note 8 — Chapter V
Reading edition
Conington, Introduction to the Sixth Æneid. "A reader of the present day will, I think, be induced to award the palm of learning and ingenuity to Warburton." "The language and imagery of the sixth book more than once suggest that Virgil intended to embody in his picture the poetical view of that inner side of ancient religion which the mysteries may be supposed to have presented."—Suggestion on the Study of the Æneid, by H. Nettleship, p. 13.
