Tiber (Italy) (search for this): book 8, commline 42
Iamque may either indicate a
transition (see Wagn. Q. V. 24. 9) or may
have its ordinary sense of just now or
already, implying that what is prophesied
will take place immediately. The
incompleteness of v. 41 makes the precise
sense here uncertain. The omen here
promised by the Tiber as a confirmation
of the vision had been promised already
by Helenus 3. 388 foll., though with a
different object: see on v. 46. Here
the white sow is Alba; the thirty young
ones are the thirty years that were
to elapse between the building of Lavinium
and Alba (v. 47); an explanation of
the legend as old as Varro, R. R. 2. 4, L.
L. 5. § 144. For the various forms of the
legend see Lewis vol. 1. pp. 334, 354, 5. The
symbolizing of the thirty years by the
thirty pigs is like the symbolizing of the
nine years of unsuccessful siege by the
sparrow and her eight young ones in Il. 2.
326 foll. For ne Rom. has nec. The
lines 43—45 are repeated from 3. 390—
392, where see no
