<P> During these events ( in which only men participate ) , Juno incites the womenfolk to burn the fleet and prevent the Trojans from ever reaching Italy , but her plan is thwarted when Ascanius and Aeneas intervene . Aeneas prays to Jupiter to quench the fires , which the god does with a torrential rainstorm . An anxious Aeneas is comforted by a vision of his father , who tells him to go to the underworld to receive a vision of his and Rome 's future . In return for safe passage to Italy , the gods , by order of Jupiter , will receive one of Aeneas 's men as a sacrifice : Palinurus , who steers Aeneas 's ship by night , falls overboard . </P>
