Summary/Abstract: The author conducted a stylistic analysis of the last 65 poems of the Book XII of “The Aeneid” by Virgil in terms of the effects the dactylic hexameter and sound instrumentation provided the Roman poets with. The very analysis should make the readers of Virgil and other Ancient authors aware of the fact that translating words is only a preliminary activity to understanding an extremely refined art of word which astonishes us.
