Aeneid Fully Scanned

Hello,

I was just wondering whether there exists a free site displaying the Aeneid completely scanned? I know that there are a few textbooks with this feature but I'm not keen on paying that much money.

Thanks,

Even with textbooks, it'll usually only be individual books. I'm not seeing anything with all 12 books scanned (though there might be something).

With enough practice, it shouldn't give you much trouble besides the occasional tricky line. Or are you interested in aspects like caesuras too?

Thank you for your reply :)
I'm just focusing on Aeneid VI at the moment, and yes, caesuras would also be preferable.
The reason I ask is that I'm first scanning all the lines by myself, but after that is done, I would like a source to cross-check with.

Yeah, I just don't think there's anything like that.

Here's some from 1, 2, 4, and 6:

Thank you for linking these.

If there are lines I'm still unsure about, I guess I will just ask on Latin Discussion.

Click "metrical scansion" at the top. The website is called "Musisque Deoque" and you can find scansion for a bunch of Latin poetry. Note that it is automated, so there may be a few mistakes, but it should be pretty much accurate; you may still have to ask if there are any points of confusion.

Btw, is that site down for anyone else?
