Then King Latinus called a council of the chiefs, and sat him down upon his throne, and bade the men say on.
And King Latinus had not a son, but a daughter only, Lavinia by name, who was now of an age to be married.
Turnus, when he found that he was to be superseded, left the court of Latinus, and went away out of the country in a rage.
Latinus the King, now growing old, ruled in a long peace over quiet tilth and town.
He lived in his hut on some of the domains of Latinus, and had charge of the flocks and herds belonging to the king.
