Examples of using "Hoary" in a sentence and their french translations:

"Now die!" – So speaking, to the shrine he tore / the aged Priam, trembling with affright, / and feebly sliding in his son's warm gore. / The left hand twists his hoary locks; the right / deep in his side drives home the falchion, bared and bright.

" Mais avant, meurs ! " Il dit ; et, d'un bras sanguinaire, / du monarque traîné par ses cheveux blanchis, / et nageant dans le sang du dernier de ses fils, / il pousse vers l'autel la vieillesse tremblante ; / de l'autre, saisissant l'épée étincelante, / lève le fer mortel, l'enfonce, et de son flanc / arrache avec la vie un vain reste de sang.

"Then wars shall cease and savage times grow mild, / and Remus and Quirinus, brethren twain, / with hoary Faith and Vesta undefiled, / shall give the law. With iron bolt and chain / firm-closed the gates of Janus shall remain. / Within, the Fiend of Discord, high reclined / on horrid arms, unheeded in the fane, / bound with a hundred brazen knots behind, / and grim with gory jaws, his grisly teeth shall grind."

" De cent verrous d'airain les robustes barrières / refermeront de Mars les portes meurtrières ; / la Discorde au dedans, fille affreuse d'enfer, / hideuse, y rougira sous cent cables de fer, / et, sur l'amas rouillé des lances inhumaines, / de sa bouche sanglante en vain mordra ses chaînes. "
