The Iliad - Homer ยท 59 words
So spoke the fair, with sorrow streaming eye. Distressful beauty melts each stander by. On all around the infectious sorrow grows; But Priam checkd the torrent as it rose. Perform, ye Trojans. what the rites require, And fell the forests for a funeral pyre; Twelve days, nor foes nor secret ambush dread; Achilles grants these honours to the dead.299
