So Venus proposes to remove Ascanius
to Paphos or Cythera, and says
positis inglorius armis Exigat hic aevum
10. 52. For the feeling comp. G. 2. 486.,
4. 564, and the language of Atys in Catullus'
poem.

Amathus in Cyprus, Hdt. 5. 104.
The temple of Venus there is mentioned
by Tac. A. 3. 62 (Forb.). For that in
Cythera see Hdt. 1. 105. Comp. 1. 680.
Rom. and Gud. have celsa mihi Paphus
(or Paphos) atque alta Cythera, alta
being marked in Gud. for omission, and
Pal. has alta added in the margin:
which shows that the error may have
arisen from some one's recollection of
alta Cythera below, v. 86. Wagn. reads
from the expositus Palatinus codex of
Pierius and Menag. prim. est celsa
Paphus atque alta Cythera, in which the
juxtaposition of celsa with alta would
be weak.
