Excerpt from Aeneid I, Vol. 1: Edited With Introduction and Notes; Introduction and Text
Rome], and in G. 3. 46 (on the occasion of the triumph of Augustus after his victories in the East, B. C. 29) the poet announces his intention of celebrating the event in verse. Whether any poem directly in praise of Augustus was begun or not, it must have been speedily abandoned for one of more comprehensive design, for some three years later we find Augustus asking for a specimen of the Aeneid then in progress, and in 23 B. C., three entire books (the second, fourth, and sixth according to Suetonius) were recited before the court. There are certain indications that the Third Book was written before the Secondz, and it is likely, in default of any direct evidence, that the composition of the First Book (or parts of it) preceded that of the Fourth.
