		+
		+	Juno Regina, as it is prescribed for you in those books – and for
		+	this reason may every good fortune attend the Roman people, the
		+	Quirites – let sacrifice be made to You with a fine cow. I beg and
		+	pray [that You may increase the sovereign power and majesty of the
		+	Roman people, the Quirites, in war and peace; as You have always
		+	watched over us among the Latins. Forever may You grant safety,
		+	victory and health to the Roman people, the Quirites. May You bestow
		+	Your favor on the Roman people, the Quirites, and on the legions of
		+	the Roman people, the Quirites. May You preserve the health and
		+	welfare of the people of Rome, the Quirites, and may You always
		+	remain willingly favorable and propitious to the people of Rome, the
		+	Quirites, to the college of the quindecimviri, to me, to my house and
		+	household. May You accept [this sacrifice of (a fine cow), to be
		+	burnt whole for You in sacrifice. For these reasons may You be
		+	honored and strengthened with the sacrifice of this female (cow), and
		+	become favorable and propitious to the Roman people, the Quirites, to
		+	the college of the quindecimviri, to myself, to my house, and to my
		+	household.]
		+
		+	==Corpus Inscriptiones Latinae VI 32323, Acta Sacrorum Saecularium, Rome, 17 BCE Lines 125-31==
		+
		+	Juno Regina, if there is any better fortune that may attend the Roman
		+	people, the Quirites, we one hundred and ten mistresses of households
		+	of the Roman people, the Quirites, married women on bended knee, pray
		+	that You bring it about, we beg and beseech that You increase the
		+	power and majesty of the Roman people, the Quirites in war and peace;
		+	and that the Latins may always be obedient; and that You may grant
		+	eternal safety, victory and health to the Roman people, the Quirites;
		+	and that You may protect the Roman people, the Quirites, and the
		+	legions of the Roman people, the Quirites; and that You may keep safe
		+	and make greater the state of the Roman people, the Quirites; and
		+	that You may be favorable and propitious to the Roman people, the
		+	Quirites, to the quindecimviri sacris faciundis, to us, to our
		+	houses, to our households. These are the things that we one hundred
		+	and ten mistresses of households of the Roman people, the Quirites,
		+	married women on bended knee, pray, beg, and beseech.
		+
		+	==Corpus Inscriptiones Latinae VI 32329. 10 sqq. Acta Sacrorum Saecularium addition==
		+
		+	Juno Regina, we, one hundred and ten the mothers of the families of
		+	the people of Rome, the Quirites, pray You allow what is now
		+	beneficial to the people of Rome, the Quirites, may then be made
		+	better, and we brides implore You to aid and increase the sovereign
		+	power and majesty of the people of Rome, the Quirites, in war and
		+	peace, and always to watch over the fame of the Latins. And may You
		+	favor the people of Rome, the Quirites, and the legions of the people
		+	of Rome, the Quirites, and preserve the republic of the people of
		+	Rome, the Quirites, and may You willingly favor and prosper us, our
		+	homes, and our families. This is what the one hundred and ten
		+	mothers of the families of the people of Rome, the Quirites, we
		+	brides of our families, pray, entreat, and implore (You to grant.)
		+
		+	==Livius Andronicus Equos Troianos==
		+
		+	Grant me the strength, Goddess, to whom I ask, to whom I pray; extend
		+	your assistance to me.
		+
		+	Da mihi hasce opes, quas peto, quas precor porrige opitula
		+
		+	==Plautus Amphitryon 831-834==
		+
		+	By the Highest Gods ruling in the heavens, by Juno, too, She whom
		+	most of all I fear and venerate, I swear that no mortal man has ever
		+	come near enough to touch me or in any way impugn upon my chastity or
		+	has give me cause for shame.
		+
		+	==Seneca Hercules on Oeta 256-62==
		+
		+	Wherever You may be in the ethereal regions, O wife of Jupiter
		+	Tonans, send a wild beast against Alcides as may satisfy my need. If
		+	a serpent moves through the marsh with a fruitful head, more vast
		+	than all others born in this region, if a feral beast lives that is
		+	so immense, so dire, so horrible that Hercules Himself would avert
		+	His eye, let this beast come forth from some vast cave.
		+
		+	==Silius Italicus Punica 7.78-85==
		+
		+	Be present O Queen of the Heavenly Gods, we Your chaste daughters
		+	pray and bring forth this venerable gift, we, all the Roman women of
		+	noble name, have woven this mantle with our own hands, embroidered it
		+	for You with threads of gold. This veil You shall wear for now, O
		+	Juno, until we mothers grow less fearful for our sons. But if You
		+	will grant that we may repel these African storm clouds from our
		+	land, we shall set upon You a flashing crown of diverse gems set in
		+	gold.
		+
		+	==Statius Thebaid 10.67-69==
		+
		+	Look, O Juno, upon the sacrilegious citadel of the Cadmean whore, and
		+	cast asunder that rebel mound. O Queen of Heaven, who rules the
		+	stars circling about the northern pole, with another thunderbolt, for
		+	You have the power, drive out Thebes as well.
		+
		+	==Tibullus 4.6.1 ff.==
		+
		+	Accept, O Juno Lucina, this offering of incense. Cheerfully, O
		+	Lucina, she has come to adorn your shrine of matrons...
		+
		+	Come, most chaste Queen of Heaven, appear in royal robes and nod your
		+	assent to the wine that is poured and the cakes piled high to await
		+	you. With you bring every herb for ending pain, and soothing songs
		+	to sing; across the ocean from distant shores bear such herbs as will
		+	cure our most severe ills, or whatever else we most fear. Rack this
		+	girl no more with pain, or cruelly delay her birthing.
		+
		+	==Valerius Flaccus Argonautica 1.80-90==
		+
		+	Almighty Queen of Heaven, remember when Jupiter made the skies grow
		+	wild with black clouds and sheets of rain; remember when Thundering
		+	Jupiter commanded Your return to the marriage bed and how You,
		+	frightened with sudden capture and at being left destitute following
		+	Your rape, sought only how to flee; remember how it was I who carried
		+	You upon my shoulders across the storm swollen Enipeus, when it
		+	carried away its banks to flood the Thessalian plane, and all were
		+	carried before its torrents. Grant, Juno, that I may arrive safely
		+	to Scythia where the Phasis flows. And You, virgin Minerva, snatch
		+	me away from harm. I, even I then, will set that plucked fleece in
		+	your shrine, and my father, relieved and grateful, will dedicate snow-
		+	white cattle from herds and lead them to Your altar with gilded horns.
		+
		+	==Virgil Aeneid 6.195-98==
		+
		+	Be my guide, if there is any way, and make Your course from the sky
		+	above into this grove, where rich boughs shade fertile land. And
		+	you, Holy Mother, do not desert us in our hour of indecision.

==Apuleius Metamorphoses 6.4==

Then kneeling, Psyche embraced the altar of Juno and, wiping at her
tears, once more prayed. "O spouse and sister of Mighty Jupiter,
whether You are worshipped and adored in the public rites of the
temples of Samos, or whether You are called upon singularly by women
in their tearful moment of giving birth, Your glory is nourished.
You dwell in ancient temples, whether at haughty Carthage, whose
temples You frequently bless when they celebrate Your journey from
heaven on the back of a lion, or whether in Your temple beside the
riverbank of Inachus where You are celebrated as the wife of
thundering Jupiter Tonans and as Queen of the Gods. Famous among the
Argives whose walls You defend, You who all the east venerates as
Life-giving Zygia, who all the west names Lucina, may You be an
advocate for me against my utter downfall, Juno Sospita, and endure
until the end in all my weary labors, exhausted as I am, deliver me
from imminent peril and free me from my fears, for I know You are
accustomed to come of Your own accord to the assistance of such women
who are pregnant and in danger."

==Corpus Inscriptiones Latinae VI 32323, Acta Sacrorum Saecularium,
Rome, Lines l21-22; ref. 92-99==

Juno Regina, as it is prescribed for you in those books – and for
this reason may every good fortune attend the Roman people, the
Quirites – let sacrifice be made to You with a fine cow. I beg and
pray [that You may increase the sovereign power and majesty of the
Roman people, the Quirites, in war and peace; as You have always
watched over us among the Latins. Forever may You grant safety,
victory and health to the Roman people, the Quirites. May You bestow
Your favor on the Roman people, the Quirites, and on the legions of
the Roman people, the Quirites. May You preserve the health and
welfare of the people of Rome, the Quirites, and may You always
remain willingly favorable and propitious to the people of Rome, the
Quirites, to the college of the quindecimviri, to me, to my house and
household. May You accept [this sacrifice of (a fine cow), to be
burnt whole for You in sacrifice. For these reasons may You be
honored and strengthened with the sacrifice of this female (cow), and
become favorable and propitious to the Roman people, the Quirites, to
the college of the quindecimviri, to myself, to my house, and to my
household.]

==Corpus Inscriptiones Latinae VI 32323, Acta Sacrorum Saecularium,
Rome, 17 BCE Lines 125-31==

Juno Regina, if there is any better fortune that may attend the Roman
people, the Quirites, we one hundred and ten mistresses of households
of the Roman people, the Quirites, married women on bended knee, pray
that You bring it about, we beg and beseech that You increase the
power and majesty of the Roman people, the Quirites in war and peace;
and that the Latins may always be obedient; and that You may grant
eternal safety, victory and health to the Roman people, the Quirites;
and that You may protect the Roman people, the Quirites, and the
legions of the Roman people, the Quirites; and that You may keep safe
and make greater the state of the Roman people, the Quirites; and
that You may be favorable and propitious to the Roman people, the
Quirites, to the quindecimviri sacris faciundis, to us, to our
houses, to our households. These are the things that we one hundred
and ten mistresses of households of the Roman people, the Quirites,
married women on bended knee, pray, beg, and beseech.

==Corpus Inscriptiones Latinae VI 32329. 10 sqq. Acta Sacrorum
Saecularium addition==

Juno Regina, we, one hundred and ten the mothers of the families of
the people of Rome, the Quirites, pray You allow what is now
beneficial to the people of Rome, the Quirites, may then be made
better, and we brides implore You to aid and increase the sovereign
power and majesty of the people of Rome, the Quirites, in war and
peace, and always to watch over the fame of the Latins. And may You
favor the people of Rome, the Quirites, and the legions of the people
of Rome, the Quirites, and preserve the republic of the people of
Rome, the Quirites, and may You willingly favor and prosper us, our
homes, and our families. This is what the one hundred and ten
mothers of the families of the people of Rome, the Quirites, we
brides of our families, pray, entreat, and implore (You to grant.)

==Livius Andronicus Equos Troianos==

Grant me the strength, Goddess, to whom I ask, to whom I pray; extend
your assistance to me.

Da mihi hasce opes, quas peto, quas precor porrige opitula

==Plautus Amphitryon 831-834==

By the Highest Gods ruling in the heavens, by Juno, too, She whom
most of all I fear and venerate, I swear that no mortal man has ever
come near enough to touch me or in any way impugn upon my chastity or
has give me cause for shame.

==Seneca Hercules on Oeta 256-62==

Wherever You may be in the ethereal regions, O wife of Jupiter
Tonans, send a wild beast against Alcides as may satisfy my need. If
a serpent moves through the marsh with a fruitful head, more vast
than all others born in this region, if a feral beast lives that is
so immense, so dire, so horrible that Hercules Himself would avert
His eye, let this beast come forth from some vast cave.

==Silius Italicus Punica 7.78-85==

Be present O Queen of the Heavenly Gods, we Your chaste daughters
pray and bring forth this venerable gift, we, all the Roman women of
noble name, have woven this mantle with our own hands, embroidered it
for You with threads of gold. This veil You shall wear for now, O
Juno, until we mothers grow less fearful for our sons. But if You
will grant that we may repel these African storm clouds from our
land, we shall set upon You a flashing crown of diverse gems set in
gold.

==Statius Thebaid 10.67-69==

Look, O Juno, upon the sacrilegious citadel of the Cadmean whore, and
cast asunder that rebel mound. O Queen of Heaven, who rules the
stars circling about the northern pole, with another thunderbolt, for
You have the power, drive out Thebes as well.

==Tibullus 4.6.1 ff.==

Accept, O Juno Lucina, this offering of incense. Cheerfully, O
Lucina, she has come to adorn your shrine of matrons...

Come, most chaste Queen of Heaven, appear in royal robes and nod your
assent to the wine that is poured and the cakes piled high to await
you. With you bring every herb for ending pain, and soothing songs
to sing; across the ocean from distant shores bear such herbs as will
cure our most severe ills, or whatever else we most fear. Rack this
girl no more with pain, or cruelly delay her birthing.

==Valerius Flaccus Argonautica 1.80-90==

Almighty Queen of Heaven, remember when Jupiter made the skies grow
wild with black clouds and sheets of rain; remember when Thundering
Jupiter commanded Your return to the marriage bed and how You,
frightened with sudden capture and at being left destitute following
Your rape, sought only how to flee; remember how it was I who carried
You upon my shoulders across the storm swollen Enipeus, when it
carried away its banks to flood the Thessalian plane, and all were
carried before its torrents. Grant, Juno, that I may arrive safely
to Scythia where the Phasis flows. And You, virgin Minerva, snatch
me away from harm. I, even I then, will set that plucked fleece in
your shrine, and my father, relieved and grateful, will dedicate snow-
white cattle from herds and lead them to Your altar with gilded horns.

==Virgil Aeneid 6.195-98==

Be my guide, if there is any way, and make Your course from the sky
above into this grove, where rich boughs shade fertile land. And
you, Holy Mother, do not desert us in our hour of indecision.
