[633] Expedior: Emm. comp. Hor. 4 Od. 4. 76, “curae sagaces Expediunt per acuta belli.” Ovid (ex Ponto 1. 1. 33), either mistaking Virg., or following another legend, supposes that Aeneas was protected from the flames afterwards when he was rescuing his father; but Virg. gives no hint of this, and Aeneas' own language, 6. 110, rather contradicts it.
