The religion of Rome appears many times throughout this work. The poet mentions Apollo. Apollo was a major god, and is associated with the Sun. He had a personified set of stories and myths if only to enable people to relate with him. He was a kind god. He was a musician and a healer. It was also thanks to him that oracles were established to provide answers to humans for the questions they posed.
