Dido was abandoned by Aeneas, as Mercury told Aeneas that he must travel to Italy and leave Dido, as Mercury reminds Aeneas that Dido is not part of his fate. Dido proceeds to kill herself out of sorrow by stabbing herself with an "ensis" (sword).
The story of Dido and Aeneas is based on Book 4 of Virgil's epic poem, the "Aeneid." In this book, Dido is the queen of Carthage and falls in love with Aeneas, a Trojan hero. Their tragic love story ends with Dido's despair and eventual suicide.
