NTA (pic rel) but how can you possibly call a work better in a language you cant read, when so much is lost in translation for how "pretty" the words are? I mean you can say the narrative is better, because the translation doesn't really lose that but Virgil lifted entire similes and passages directly from homer (like Aeneas' armor), so I don't think he's that good for those reasons.
