The
hystorye
of
Dares
Phrigius
,
of
the
ruyne
and
destruction
of
Troye
.
PElias
reignynge
in
Peloponesa
,
had
a
brother
named
Asō
.
Of
this
man
is
issued
Iason
,
&
very
excellent
man
in
vertu
:
the
whiche
for
because
he
hadde
ben
good
to
his
subiectes
,
intreatynge
them
humaynlye
and
gentlye
,
was
muche
set
by
,
and
beloued
of
all
men
.
Kynge
Pelias
perceauyng
that
Iason
was
in
suche
reputation
and
auctoritie
with
all
the
people
,
feared
greatly
least
he
shoulde
do
hym
some
wronge
,
depryuing
hym
of
his
kingdome
.
But
to
auoyde
the
effecte
of
suche
a
doubtefull
and
peryllous
suspition
,
Pelias
fained
that
there
was
in
the
Ile
of
Colchos
a
golden
flese
of
a
shepe
,
a
ryche
thyng
,
and
worthy
of
Iasons
puissance
and
strengthe
,
perswadynge
hym
through
promis
of
great
recompence
,
to
conquere
and
to
brynge
it
awaye
perforce
.
Wherevnto
Iason
,
as
one
of
hygh●
courage
and
muche
desyrous
to
se
manye
and
dyuers
countreys
,
thynking
by
such
meanes
greately
to
auaunce
,
and
to
augmente
his
honoure
,
consented
vnto
the
enterpryse
,
so
that
Pelias
woulde
so
furnyshe
hym
with
men
and
other
necessary
thinges
,
that
he
shoulde
want
or
lacke
nothynge
.
Then
Pelias
by
and
by
commaunded
his
chiefest
carpenter
named
Argus
,
to
make
and
prepare
suche
fayre
and
goodly
shyppes
,
that
they
myght
please
and
content
Iason
.
As
sone
as
the
br●te
was
spred
thorow
al
Grece
,
as
well
of
the
foresayde
shyppes
,
as
of
the
totall
and
whole
enterpryse
of
Iason
into
Colchos
,
his
frendes
&
familiares
presented
and
offred
theyr
seruyce
and
company
vnto
hym
.
After
that
Iason
had
geuen
them
thankes
,
he
prayde
them
to
be
ready
,
and
wayte
for
the
oportune
,
and
conueniente
time
of
his
departure
.
They
came
at
the
selfe
same
tyme
wel
minded
and
appoynted
vnto
the
place
signified
and
assigned
vnto
them
by
Iasons
letters
,
that
is
to
wyt
,
wher
the
shippe
was
,
called
Argo
.
Pelias
with
all
diligence
caused
the
nauye
to
be
furnyshed
with
all
thinges
necessary
,
and
exhorted
Iason
and
his
companye
,
coragiously
to
accomplish
the
thynge
whiche
was
begonne
,
&
so
doynge
that
not
they
onelye
,
but
also
all
Grece
shoulde
obtayne
greate
honour
and
glory
.
But
to
declare
by
name
all
those
that
accompanyed
Iason
,
I
thinke
it
not
mete
nor
to
anye
purpose
,
let
them
therefore
which
be
curyouse
to
knowe
these
thynges
,
reade
suche
authors
,
as
haue
specially
wrytten
of
the
Argonantes
.
Iason
then
ariuinge
&
comynge
into
Phrigia
,
came
and
broughte
his
shyppes
vnto
the
hauen
of
the
riuer
Simois
,
and
there
all
his
souldiers
landed
.
But
when
kynge
Laomedon
was
aduertised
therof
,
he
was
greatelye
moued
,
as
well
for
the
greate
number
of
shyppes
,
whiche
were
aryued
and
rested
there
,
as
for
the
multitude
of
the
yonge
men
of
Grece
,
which
were
commynge
thether
:
consydering
also
to
be
very
daungerous
vnto
his
people
in
tyme
to
come
,
yf
the
Grekes
accustomed
them selues
so
to
aryue
&
to
campe
in
his
dominions
and
countreys
.
Therfore
Laomedon
admonished
them
by
Ambassadoures
to
retyre
and
departe
out
of
his
countrey
,
or
els
that
he
was
mynded
rughelye
&
rudely
to
repulse
them
.
The
which
thinge
was
very
straunge
to
Iason
and
his
companye
,
and
not
easelye
to
be
suffred
,
so
vngentlye
to
be
entreated
of
hym
,
whome
they
neuer
offended
.
Neuerthelesse
,
they
fearing
that
through
the
ire
and
anger
of
the
kyng
,
they
might
be
destroyed
and
spoyled
by
the
multitude
of
the
barbarous
people
,
if
contrarye
to
the
will
and
commaundement
of
Laomedon
,
they
shulde
make
resistaunce
,
seinge
they
had
no
preparation
to
warre
,
departed
vnto
theyr
shyppes
,
and
finallye
came
to
Colchos
,
where
they
incontinent
obtayned
the
golden
flese
,
and
returned
vnto
theyr
owne
countrey
.
A
while
after
Hercules
hauynge
in
remembraunce
the
euill
receite
and
intreatinge
of
Laomedon
towardes
Iason
,
went
vnto
Sparta
,
to
desyre
Castor
and
Postur
,
in
Salamina
,
Che●amō
,
in
Thessalia
Peleus
,
in
Pile
Nestor
,
to
fauour
and
ayd
him
to
reuenge
the
iniurie
,
that
the
Grekes
had
receaued
of
the
king
of
Troy
:
the
whiche
thinge
was
willinglye
promysed
him
,
and
he
declaringe
his
minde
vnto
Nestor
,
sayd
he
was
sorye
to
be
constrayned
to
make
warre
against
the
Troians
,
whom
Nestor
dyd
well
alowe
.
Hercules
perceyuinge
the
good
wyll
of
them
all
,
caused
.
xv
.
shippes
to
be
made
,
and
suche
men
as
were
mete
for
the
warre
to
be
gathered
.
Whan
the
time
of
his
departure
was
come
,
and
that
he
had
assembled
by
his
letters
,
&
otherwise
those
whiche
he
had
desired
and
prayed
,
and
had
prepared
all
thinges
in
a
good
order
:
they
fayled
vntill
they
came
by
nighte
into
Phrigia
,
vnto
the
porte
and
hauen
of
Sige
,
wher
that
Hercules
Thelamon
,
and
Peleus
did
most
dyligently
cause
their
hoost
to
be
set
a
land
,
making
Castor
,
Pollux
,
and
Nestor
the
cheife
rulers
to
defende
the
shippes●
Laomedon
perceauinge
the
Grekes
armye
to
be
pitched
,
&
in
campe
at
the
port
of
Sige
,
by
and
by
went
thether
with
a
great
companie
,
and
began
to
fight
valiauntly
.
In
the
meane
season
Hercules
compassed
about
,
and
besieged
the
towne
Ilium
,
so
that
he
mo●ested
the
citisins
very
sore
,
hauinge
no
word
therof
,
and
vndefended
.
Then
Laomedon
goyng
thether
to
succour
and
to
ayd
them
,
was
slayne
of
Hercules
,
with
all
his
children
,
Priamus
excepted
whiche
at
that
time
(
by
his
fathers
commaundement
)
had
the
leadynge
of
an
Army
in
Phrigia
.
The
Troians
army
beynge
thus
destroyde
,
the
towne
battarde
,
taken
,
spoyled
,
and
ouerthrowen
,
the
Grekes
(
after
thei
had
fylled
theyr
shyppes
and
vessels
with
the
pillage
and
spoyle
)
purposed
to
retourne
home
agayn
.
Among
other
thinges
Thelamon
for
his
boty
toke
with
hym
Hesiona
kyng
Laomidons
daughter
,
whom
Hercules
for
the
vertue
and
excellencye
that
was
in
him
,
and
because
he
was
the
fyrste
that
boldely
approched
vnto
the
breche
,
and
entred
the
towne
,
gaue
for
a
rewarde
.
Priamus
therfore
perceauinge
that
his
father
was
deade
,
his
●itisens
of
Ilium
subdued
,
&
his
sister
Hesiona
to
be
genen
for
a
pray
,
was
very
sory
thus
to
se
the
state
of
the
common
welth
of
Troye
,
entre●ted
of
the
Grekes
.
Wherefore
he
returned
,
accompanied
with
his
wife
Hecuba
,
and
his
children
,
that
is
,
Hector
Alexander
,
Deiphobus
,
Helenus
,
Troilus
,
Andromacha
,
Cassandra
,
and
Po●exena
,
to
go
into
Ilium
.
He
had
also
other
chyldren
oute
of
wedlocke
,
but
yet
men
estemed
them
not
,
nor
called
none
the
kynges
chyldren
,
but
suche
as
were
lawfully
begotten
.
Assone
as
Priamus
was
come
agayne
to
Troye
,
he
edified
his
town
agayne
,
he
fortified
it
with
much
greter
and
stronger
walles
,
repaired
it
with
all
kyndes
of
munitions
and
fortresses
,
and
with
a
great
number
of
men
of
armes
,
fearynge
leaste
he
shoulde
be
destroyed
,
and
sodenlye
brought
to
ruyne
as
his
father
Laomedon
was
.
Besydes
all
this
,
he
buylded
a
palace
royall
,
where
he
consecrated
a
temple
and
an
ymage
vnto
Iupiter
.
The
names
of
the
gates
of
the
foresayde
towne
are
these
,
Antenorida
,
Dardamda
,
Ilia
,
Scea
,
Catumbria
,
Troiana
.
But
after
that
he
sawe
his
towne
,
and
other
thynges
aparteyninge
thervnto
sufficientlye
prepared
,
he
loked
for
a
conueniente
tyme
,
to
reuenge
the
wronge
that
was
done
vnto
hym
in
his
goodes
,
and
in
the
person
of
his
father
.
And
therefore
he
purposed
to
sende
one
of
his
an
Ambassador
into
Grece
,
named
Antenor
,
with
a
certayne
complaynt
to
demaunde
amense
,
aswell
for
the
death
of
his
father
,
and
taking
awaye
of
his
goodes
,
as
for
the
rauyshement
of
his
syster
Hesiona
:
promisinge
neuerthelesse
willinglye
to
indure
and
suffer
,
and
to
take
all
thinges
in
good
parte
,
so
that
his
syster
were
restored
hym
agayne
.
Antenor
obeyinge
the
kynges
commaundement
,
take
shyppyng
,
and
wandered
so
longe
vppon
the
sea
,
that
he
came
vnto
a
place
in
Grece
named
Manesia
:
where
Pelius
receaued
him
,
and
feasted
for
the
space
of
thre
dayes
.
At
the
fourth
daye
he
requyred
hym
to
declare
the
cause
of
his
legation
:
the
whiche
aunswered
that
it
was
onelye
to
admonishe
the
Grekes
,
to
restore
Hesiona
.
Peleus
vnderstandynge
that
,
and
that
the
matter
some
what
touched
hym
,
toke
it
vnpaciently
,
and
therfore
he
commaunded
him
incontinent
to
retyre
from
thense
vnto
some
other
place
.
Ante
nor
not
beynge
therwith
content
,
sayled
vnto
Salamina
,
to
perswade
and
induce
Thelamon
to
restore
Hesiona
kynge
Priamus
sister
,
declarynge
not
to
be
ryghte
nor
reasonable
,
to
kepe
the
doughter
of
a
kynge
in
suche
bondage
.
Whervnto
Thelamon
annswered
,
that
he
hadde
not
offended
Priamus
,
and
that
he
was
not
mynded
to
restore
the
thynge
,
whiche
was
geuen
him
for
his
vertu
and
valiauntnes
,
and
therefore
that
he
shulde
do
his
diligence
to
departe
.
Then
Antenor
toke
shyppynge
as
before
,
&
went
to
Achaia
,
and
there
solicited
Castor
and
Pollux
to
content
Priamus
,
aswell
for
the
rauysshinge
of
Hesiona
,
as
for
other
thinges
,
the
whiche
denied
with
great
boldnesse
,
that
in
no
wise
they
had
offended
Priamus
,
but
contrarywyse
that
they
and
the
other
Grecians
were
fyrst
prouoked
and
offended
by
Laomedon
,
therfore
they
commaunded
him
to
departe
.
Furthermore
Antenor
the
Ambassador
wente
to
Pile
vnto
Nestor
for
the
self
same
thing
,
the
which
threatenynge
dyd
saye
,
that
he
marueyled
that
Antenor
a
Troian
was
so
bold
and
hardy
to
come
into
Grece
,
considerynge
that
the
anset
of
malice
was
fyrst
geuen
by
the
Troians
.
Whan
Antenor
perceaued
his
labor
loste
,
&
also
had
heard
the
proude
and
bolde
aunswers
of
al
the
princes
of
Grece
,
he
returned
home
,
makynge
a
rekenynge
vnto
Priamns
of
his
iourny
,
and
dyd
him
to
vnderstande
and
perceaue
the
threatnynge
aunswers
of
the
Grecianes
,
and
therwithall
prouoked
him
to
make
warre
agaynste
them
.
Priamus
at
the
same
selfe
instant
,
called
all
his
chyldren
,
his
frendes
,
princes
,
and
lordes
,
as
Anchises
Eneas
,
Ucalegon
,
Talantus
,
Amphotes
,
Panthus
,
and
also
his
chyldren
begotten
of
his
concubines
,
and
recited
vnto
them
the
whole
order
of
the
legation
and
message
made
vnto
the
Grekes
by
Antenor
in
his
name
that
is
to
wyt
,
of
the
death
of
his
father
,
of
the
ruyn●
&
destruction
of
〈◊〉
,
&
of
the
rape
of
Hesiona
,
whose
restoryng
he
promised
to
be
a
full
satisfaction
of
all
wronges
,
and
therewith
the
aunswer
of
them
,
the
euyll
and
vnkynd
intreatinge
shewed
vnto
his
Ambassador
.
And
therfore
seynge
he
coulde
haue
no
parte
of
his
mynde
,
he
purposed
to
prepare
an
hoost
,
to
th
intent
that
the
Grecians
so
punyshed
,
shulde
not
at
anye
tyme
haue
the
barbarous
Troianes
in
de●ision
.
Fyrst
of
al
he
admonished
his
chyldren
to
take
the
principal
charge
of
this
thinge
,
and
speciallye
Hector
his
eldest
sonne
,
the
whiche
promysed
to
fulfyll
the
wyll
and
commaundement
of
his
father
,
and
also
that
he
woulde
not
onely
reuenge
the
death
of
his
graundefather
,
but
also
all
the
iniuries
and
offenses
committed
agaynste
his
elders
,
to
the
intente
the
misdedes
of
the
Grekes
shoulde
not
remayne
vnpunyshed
:
but
yet
he
doubted
muche
of
the
ende
of
his
enterpryse
,
because
that
the
Grecians
shuld
and
myghte
haue
great
succoure
and
ayde
of
diuers
nations
.
Also
because
that
in
Europe
were
verye
stronge
men
,
and
apte
vnto
warre
,
and
in
Asia
men
were
delicatelye
nourysshed
in
reste
and
ydlenes
,
and
therfore
destitute
of
a
nauy
mete
for
such
a
purpose
.
This
notwithstandynge
Alexader
exhorted
that
a
nauy
shuld
be
prepared
for
this
iorney
vnto
Grece
,
offerynge
him selfe
to
be
the
cheife
and
principal
conductor
of
the
army
,
yf
it
so
pleased
the
kynge
his
father
,
such
confidence
he
had
in
the
Gods
,
and
trusted
to
return
vnto
his
house
victorious
and
triumphing
ouer
his
enemyes
.
For
he
sayde
as
he
went
a
huntynge
in
the
forest
named
Ida
he
fell
a
s●epe
,
vnto
whome
Mercur●us
came
,
sayinge
he
had
chosen
hym
●udge
as
concernynge
the
beautie
of
thre
goddesses
there
present
.
Iuno
,
Minerua
,
and
Uenus
,
and
that
Uenus
had
promised
hym
the
fayrest
lady
of
all
Grece
,
if
amonge
those
thre
,
he
would
iudge
and
esteme
hyr
to
be
the
fayrest
:
and
that
for
this
reason
and
cause
,
Priamus
shulde
haue
the
better
hope
,
inasmuch
as
Uenus
did
fauer
Alexander
.
This
opinion
dyd
maruelouselye
well
please
Deiphobus
,
whereby
he
trusted
to
haue
righte
,
and
satisfaction
of
the
Greekes
,
yf
the
thynge
whyche
was
enterprised
,
were
folowed
.
Helenus
cleane
contrarye
,
as
a
true
Prophete
,
foretolde
the
commynge
of
the
Grekes
,
the
Destruction
that
they
shoulde
do
in
the
countreye
&
towne
of
Troye
,
the
ruyne
of
his
father
and
brethren
,
yf
his
brother
Alexander
broughte
awaye
perforce
a
woman
out
of
the
countrey
of
Grece
.
Troilus
the
yongest
sonne
,
but
yet
no
lesse
coragio●s
and
valiaunt
then
Hector
,
counseled
,
and
perswaded
a
nauye
to
be
prouided
,
and
with
al
diligence
to
set
forwarde
vnto
Grece
:
and
that
men
shulde
not
feare
,
nor
haue
no
regarde
vnto
his
brothers
wordes
.
Whose
counsell
was
greatly
alowed
and
approued
of
all
men
.
This
done
,
Priamus
sent
Deiphobus
and
Alexander
into
Licaonia
,
to
chose
oute
,
&
to
gather
together
men
,
mete
for
the
warre
,
and
to
assemble
the
people
to
the
counsell
.
After
that
Priamus
had
purposed
to
shewe
these
thinges
vnto
his
chyldren
,
he
,
to
the
entente
that
the
inferiors
shulde
be
obedient
vnto
theyr
elders
and
superiours
,
declared
vnto
them
the
iniuries
and
wronges
that
they
had
suffred
of
the
Grekes
.
And
that
he
had
sente
Antenor
into
Grece
,
to
the
intente
he
myghte
be
reasonably
aunswered
for
hys
syster
,
and
other
thynges
,
and
that
Antenor
was
ignominiouslye
receaued
and
entreated
,
nor
coulde
not
accomplyshe
,
nor
obtayne
anye
thynge
of
his
businesse
,
as
concernynge
his
legation
:
and
therefore
it
was
very
expediente
that
Paris
(
as
it
was
purposed
)
shulde
reuenge
the
death
of
his
graundfather
,
and
other
greuous
and
great
iniuries
committed
vnto
the
Troianes
.
He
also
commaunded
Antenor
to
shewe
his
minde
,
whiche
encouraged
the
Troianes
to
make
warre
vpon
the
Grekes
,
shewynge
them
in
few
wordes
what
he
had
done
,
in
Grece
.
Priamus
or
euer
he
went
anye
further
in
this
matter
,
dyd
openlye
yet
once
agayn
aske
them
,
whether
there
were
any
of
his
,
that
agreed
not
vnto
this
warre
,
to
th
ende
he
shoulde
tell
hym
in
open
fielde
.
Wherevnto
Panthus
in
the
presence
of
Priamus
&
other
,
aunswered
and
spake
the
thynge
,
the
whiche
as
he
sayde
,
he
had
learne●
of
his
father
Enphorbius
,
that
yf
Alexander
brought
a
woman
oute
of
Grece
,
it
shoulde
be
the
ruyne
and
extreme
misfortune
of
the
Troianes
:
and
that
it
were
muche
more
honest
and
better
to
lyue
in
tranquillitye
,
then
thoroughe
warres
,
and
other
troubles
to
lese
theyr
auncient
libertie
,
and
so
lyghtelye
to
put
them
selues
in
hasarde
and
icopardye
.
The
people
dispraysed
the
counsell
and
auctoritie
of
Panthus
,
and
submitted
theym selues
vnto
the
kynges
wyll
,
as
readye
and
disposed
to
do
that
shoulde
please
hym
to
commaund
.
And
after
that
Priamus
had
promysed
to
prepare
shyppes
,
and
other
thynges
to
go
into
Grece
,
and
that
in
suche
sorte
,
that
nothynge
shoulde
be
lackynge
,
they
all
with
one
boyce
promised
him
their
whole
obedience
.
Priamus
then
thanked
them
,
and
so
the
counsell
cesed
and
brake
vp
.
Therfore
with
al
spede
,
Priamus
did
send
labourers
into
the
forest
Ida
,
to
hewe
tymber
to
make
shyppes
.
And
in
the
meane
season
,
he
sent
Hector
into
the
hye
partes
of
Phrigia
to
assemble
an
Army
.
Canssandra
now
vnderstanding
and
perceauing
this
enterprise
,
foretolde
the
thynge
that
shoulde
chaunce
vnto
the
Troianes
,
yf
her
father
would
perseuere
and
go
on
to
moleste
the
Grecians
with
warre
.
But
the
tyme
beyng
now
come
,
and
the
shyppes
furnished
,
and
the
souldiers
of
Licaonia
brought
thether
by
Alexander
and
Deiphobus
,
there
lacked
nothinge
but
theyr
departure
.
Priamus
hauynge
thus
all
thynges
in
a
readines
made
Alexander
the
generall
captayne
of
his
armye
,
and
with
hym
as
guydes
,
Deiphobus
,
Eneas
,
and
Polidamus
:
commaundynge
Alexander
fyrste
to
go
vnto
Sparta
to
Castor
and
Pollux
to
commun
with
them
for
the
restoryng
of
Hesiona
,
and
that
perfourmed
,
the
people
of
Troye
woulde
be
ryghte
well
satisfied
and
contente
:
and
y●
they
denied
him
any
thinge
,
that
he
shulde
be
aduersited
therof
,
to
the
intent
he
myght
sende
hym
freshe
ayde
and
succour
.
Then
Alexander
with
his
,
and
Antenors
the
Ambassadors
companye
,
sayled
into
Grece
.
But
yet
or
euer
they
came
to
the
yle
Eitherea
,
they
recountred
and
mette
Menelaus
in
the
mid
waye
,
going
vnto
the
pyle
,
merueylynge
and
doubtynge
to
what
parte
or
coste
this
great
armie
went
.
And
so
they
met
bothe
together
,
and
although
they
saw●
and
beheld
one
another
,
yet
they
were
ignoraunte
nor
kn●we
not
whither
the
one
and
the
other
went
.
Euen
vpon
the
selfe
same
daye
Castor
and
Pollux
were
gone
with
their
gales
toward
Clitemnestra
,
&
had
brought
thet●er
Hermiona
Helena
her
doughter
.
The
daye
when
Alexander
came
to
Citherea
,
was
dedicated
and
holye
in
the
honour
of
Iuno
,
in
the
whiche
place
he
vnderstode
,
that
there
was
a
temple
of
Diana
and
Uenus
,
The
Citherians
demaundynge
throughe
great
admiration
what
he
was
,
and
frome
whence
this
great
and
triumphant
companye
was
come
,
had
thys
answere
:
that
it
was
Alexander
kyng
Priamus
ambassadour
to
Castor
and
Pollux
.
Helene
Menelaus
wyfe
knowynge
that
Alexander
was
in
Citharea
so
nobly
and
royally
appoynted
,
desyred
greatlye
to
see
hym
,
and
wente
to
a
towne
nye
vnto
the
sea
(
called
by
her
name
Helena
)
where
she
purposed
within
the
temple
to
doe
sacrifice
vnto
Appollo
and
Diana
.
Alexander
being
verye
ioyfull
of
the
approchement
and
commyng
of
Helena
,
mindyng
and
remembrynge
her
greate
bwetye
,
beganne
throughe
a
greate
desyre
and
affection
to
see
her
and
to
goe
and
mete
her
.
Helena
perceyuynge
that
Alexander
was
come
to
her
towne
,
no
lesse
desirous
on
her
parte
to
see
Alexander
,
mete
hym
by
the
waye
,
where
the
one
seynge
and
beholdynge
the
other
,
were
euen
forthwith
taken
with
suche
loue
,
that
they
appoynted
the
tyme
and
conuenient
houre
to
speake
and
commen
together
.
Therfore
Alexander
commaunded
all
hys
men
to
be
in
a
readines
in
their
shyppes
,
purposynge
in
the
night
folowing
to
take
Helena
and
a
certayne
numbre
of
her
damse●s
as
she
was
doynge
sacrifice
in
the
temple
.
The
whiche
thynge
was
fulfilled
&
done
.
The
citesyns
perceyuynge
that
,
sought
verye
longe
agaynst
hym
,
but
yet
they
fayled
so
muche
to
recouer
their
Helen
,
that
they
themselues
through
the
multitude
and
great
company
of
Alexander
,
were
ouercome
,
the
temple
and
the
towne
spoyled
,
manye
prysoners
caryed
away
:
thys
done
,
incontinent
they
loused
&
hoysed
vp
their
sayles
purposynge
to
returne
from
thence
,
he
came
to
an
hauen
named
Tenedon
,
where
after
he
had
conforted
Helen
beynge
verye
heauye
,
he
certified
hys
father
Priamus
by
letters
of
all
thynges
that
was
done
.
Menelaus
beynge
in
Pylas
was
certtfied
of
this
deede
whiche
wente
with
all
spede
vnto
Sparta
with
Nestor
from
whence
he
sent
Argos
desyrynge
his
brother
Agamemnon
to
come
thither
to
him
In
the
meane
tyme
Alexander
came
home
to
his
owne
house
with
his
praye
,
recited
the
order
and
disscourse
of
all
his
doynges
,
wherof
Priamus
was
verye
ioyfull
trustynge
that
at
the
lest
his
sister
Hesiona
throughe
the
recouerynge
of
Helen
shoulde
be
restored
with
other
recompence
and
satisfaction
of
all
that
here
to
fore
the
Grekes
had
destroyed
,
pylde
,
and
caryed
oute
of
the
countreie
,
&
from
the
people
of
Troye
.
And
after
he
had
with
fayre
wordes
conforted
the
desolate
Helen
,
he
maryed
her
to
his
sonne
Alexander
.
Assoone
as
Canssandra
behelde
her
she
beganne
to
prophesye
euen
as
before
.
And
therfore
by
the
commaundement
of
Priamus
she
was
taken
and
closed
vp
.
After
that
Agamemnon
was
come
into
Sparta
,
and
hadde
comforted
hys
brother
,
they
purposed
to
sende
into
al
Grece
to
complaine
them
of
thys
open
iniurie
,
and
that
to
reuenge
the
same
,
it
was
necessarye
to
proclayme
war
against
the
Troyans
.
Where
Achiles
,
Patroclus
,
&
Diomedes
went
purposely
into
Sparta
to
Agamemnon
ready
with
armes
to
reueng
the
iniurius
ded
of
the
Troyans
,
appointing
Agamemnon
to
be
chiefe
of
al
the
armie
.
After
this
they
signified
throughe
out
all
Grece
their
interprince
,
to
the
intent
that
euerye
man
shoulde
be
readie
in
armes
at
the
assemble
in
the
porte
of
Athens
,
to
defende
their
ryght
and
honoure
,
and
to
reuenge
the
rauishement
of
Helen
.
Amonge
whome
Castor
and
Pollux
folowed
the
companye
with
shyppes
vnto
the
porte
Lesbe
,
because
of
the
wronge
committed
in
the
persone
of
their
sister
Helen
,
but
yet
throughe
a
certay●e
rage
that
chaunsed
there
euen
sondenly
,
they
left
of
to
sayle
and
to
folowe
,
and
vanished
awaye
as
it
had
bene
the
ayre
,
in
so
muche
that
in
no

they
were
euer

Therfore

estemed
them
to
be

,
and
set
in

After
that
they
were
all
come
to
Athenes
,
Agamemnon
called
his
captaynes
to
counsel
,
praysed
them
and
exhorted
theym
to
mayntayne
theyr
ryght
and
quarel
,
promysyng
to

Furthermore
,
they
thought
it
very
good
,
or
euer
they
departed
to
take
counsel
of
Appollo
,
where
vnto
euery
man
accorded
.
And
to
do
thys
thing
,
Achilles
was
sent
with
Patroclus
vnto
Delphos
.
In
the
mene
while
Priamus
being
well
aduertised
of
the
wyll
&
preparation
of
his
enemies
gathered
men
thorowout
al
his
countreies
exhorting
euery
man
couragiously
to
defend
his
contrei
.
When
Achilles
and
Delphos
had
vnderstanded
by
the
oracle
,
that
the
Greekes
shoulde
beare
awaye
the
victorye
,
and
Troy
at
the
tenth
yeres
ende
shoulde
be
taken
and
destroyed
by
theym
,
he
dyd
sacrifice
vnto
God
Appollo
,
as
it
was
commaunded
.
At
the
selfe
same
tyme
likwise
Calchas
was
sent
to
Delphos
to
gratifie
Apollo
with
gyftes
and
ryche
Iewels
,
for
the
Troianes
,
&
to
counsel
with
him
of
the
state
of
hys
realme
&
other
goodes
,
vnto
who
it
was
answered
by
the
oracle
,
and
counseled
,
that
he
should
confederate
him self
with
thee
Grekes
agaynst
the
Troyanes
,
&
that
he
shoulde
beare
theym
asmuche
fauour
as
he
might
possible
in
disclosynge
the
thynge
that
he
might
per●eyue
and
vndersta●de
of
the
affayres
of
Troye
,
to
thys
entent
,
that
the
Grekes
should
not
leaue
of
nor
departe
vntyll
Troye
were
taken
and
destroyed
.
Achilles
&
Calchas
met
together
within
the
temple
,
&
after
they
had
confederate
their
answeres
of
the
oracle
together
,
the
which
were
lyke
and
agreable
,
thei
reioysed
&
confirmed
their
aliance
and
amitie
.
So
they
came
together
to
Athenes
,
where
Calchas
was
gentelye
receyued
of
all
the
Grecianes
.
Their
shyppes
beynge
nowe
prepared
to
sayle
,
they
were
sodenly
taken
,
and
troubled
with
an
horrible
&
a
merueilous
tempest
:
therfore
Calchas
as
a
prophete
counseled
them
to
tourne
their
sayles
to
some
other
parte
,
and
go
towardes
the
porte
named
Aulis
,
vnto
the
whiche
they
came
at
the
last
.
Af●e●
that
Agamemnon
had
with
sacrifice
apaysed
and
satisfied
Diana
,
he
cansed
to
hoyse
vp
their
sayles
,
and
to
go
on
vnto
Troy
,
and
to
do
this
more
easly●
Philocte
was
vnto
than
as
a
guyde
,
the
whiche
before
tyme
had
bene
with
the
Argonantes
in
the
land
of
Troy
.
By
the
wai
thei
came
vnto
a
towne
appertaynynge
to
Priamus
,
whiche
after
they
had
taken
and
sacked
,
they
wente
to
Tenedon
,
killynge
man
,
woman
and
child
,
the
whiche
they
tooke
in
like
maner
.
But
Agamemnon
deuided
the
spoiye
amonge
his
souldiers
.
This
done
,
he
called
a
counsel
wherin
it
was
concluded
,
that
Diomedes
and
Ulixes
shulde
goe
vnto
Priamus
,
requirynge
hym
to
restore
Helen
with
other
thynges
rauished
and
taken
awaye
by
Alexander
.
Durynge
the
tyme
that
these
men
communed
with
Priamus
,
Achilles
&
Thelephus
were
sent
to
take
Misia
for
a
praye
,
where
kyng
Teuthras
raigned
.
Where
when
they
came
,
they
spoyled
al
the
countrye
.
And
Achilles
so
wounded
the
kynge
commynge
in
armes
in
the
defence
of
hys
countreye
,
that
he
fell
to
the
grounde
,
whome
Telephus
couered
wyth
hys
shylde
,
that
Achylles
slewe
hym
not
oute
of
hande
,
and
that
because
in
tymes
paste
Teuthras
hadde
lyberallye
receyued
Telephus
Hercules
sonne
into
hys
house
,
beynge
yet
but
verye
younge
.
Some
other
do
saye
,
that
euen
then
Hercules
hadde
slayne
Diomedes
with
hys
pusiant
and
wylde
horses
,
and
delyuered
all
hys
kyngedome
into
the
handes
of
Teuthras
and
that
Telephus
therfore
had
succurred
hym
.
But
Teuthras
perceyuynge
that
throughe
that
stroke
he
coulde
not
escape
deathe
,
he
beynge
yet
alyue
delyuered
hys
kyngdome
of
Misia
vnto
Telephus
,
and
instituted
hym
kyng
as
his
heire
and
successur
,
whome
after
that
he
was
deed
Telephus
dyd
burye
most
honourably
.
Finallye
,
Achilles
shewed
Telephus
that
the
beste
conseruation
of
his
kyngedome
and
to
the
intent
that
in
his
necessitie
,
he
mighte
be
succuered
and
holpen
of
the
Grekes
:
was
to
furnishe
and
yerelye
to
prepare
a
certayne
quantitie
of
corne
oute
of
hys
realme
,
for
the
Grekes
campe
,
whereby
he
him selfe
with
his
hooste
shoulde
not
go
agaynst
the
Troianes
:
but
remayne
at
home
for
the
more
surer
conseruation
of
his
newe
kingdome
.
This
ended
,
Achilles
returned
with
a
great
praye
and
botye
from
Misia
to
Tenedon
:
recitinge
at
length
to
Agamemnon
and
his
companions
,
what
he
had
done
,
of
whome
he
was
greatlye
praysed
,
for
hys
industry
&
viligence
.
In
the
meane
whyle
the
Ambassadours
of
Grece
recited
and
declared
vnto
Priamus
the
causes
of
their
legation
,
and
the
wyll
of
Agamemnon
,
that
is
:
to
know
yf
the
Troianes
woulde
restore
Helen
with
the
other
botye
,
and
that
the
Grekes
beynge
satisfied
and
contented
for
those
thinges
,
would
pesably
returne
agayne
.
For
an
aunswere
Priamus
recited
the
iniurye
of
the
Argona●tes
,
the
destruction
and
sacking
of
Ilium
,
the
death
of
his
father
,
the
violent
rape
and
iniust
seruitute
,
in
the
whyche
his
sister
Hesiona
was
deteyned
by
the
Grekes
,
the
euyll
and
vngentle
intreatyng
of
Antenor
his
Ambassadour
in
Grece
:
therfore
he
denyed
the
peace
,
denunced
warre
,
and
commaunded
them
to
returne
,
and
depart
out
of
his
countreye
.
The
Ambassadours
beyng
returned
,
and
the
aunswere
of
Priamus
declared
to
the
Grekes
,
the
matter
was
reuoked
into
the
counsell
.
Nowe
we
thinke
it
good
to
recite
the
names
and
prouinces
of
the
Lordes
and
princes
,
whiche
came
with
them
hoostes
,
to
succoure
Priamus
agaynste
the
Grekes
.
First
from
C●●ia
came
Pandarus
and
Amphide●stns
frome
Colophonia
,
Amphimacus
and
Mnesteus
.
Frome
Licia
,
Sarpedon
and
Glaucus
.
Frome

Hippor●ogus
and
Cupesu●
.
From
Cironia
Remnes
.
Frome
Thracia
Pyrus
&
A●canus
.
From

Paractemesus
,
&
Teropeus
.
From

Ascanuis
Zantippus
,
and
Portius
,
from

.
Eusemeus●
from

Asuneus
and
Foricus
from

Epistropolis
and
Boccius
from
Palaconia
Philleminus
,
from
Ethiopia
Pirses
and
Mennon
,
from
Thracia
Heseus
&
Archilogus
,
from
Agrestia
Adrastus
and
Amphius
,
from
Auzoni●
Epistrophus
.
Unto
these
companies
and
hostes
,
Priamus
appoynted
Hector
for
chiefe
and
principall
Captayne
,
nexte
after
Deiphobus
,
consequently
Alexander
,
Troilus
,
Eneas
,
&
Memnon
.
And
as
Agamemnon
on
the
other
part
toke
deliberation
,
and
made
prouision
for
the
enterprise●
came
Palamedes
the
sonne
of
Nauplius
from
Corma
with
thirtye
shippes
,
and
excused
him selfe
,
that
he
came
not
to
the
assemble
at
Athens
,
withholden
and
let
by
sycknes
,
but
that
he
came
incontinent
,
and
assone
as
it
was
possible
for
him
to
come
,
and
as
the
oportunitie
of
time
would
serue
.
The
whiche
excuse
was
taken
of
all
other
in
good
parte
,
gaue
him
thankes
,
and
prayde
him
to
assiste
them
,
as
one
of
the
counsell
.
And
forasmuche
as
the
Grecians
doubted
of
theyr
settynge
forwarde
to
Troye
,
they
would
know
Palamedes
counsell
,
whether
they
shoulde
geue
the
assaulte
to
Troy
by
day
or
by
night
.
He
aunswered
,
that
he
founde
none
occasion
,
why
they
shoulde
geue
the
assaulte
by
night
,
but
in
the
middes
of
the
dai
,
as
he
thought
it
most
expedient
,
wherevnto
they
all
consented
and
agreed
,
and
choyse
Agamemnon
captaine
of
al
the
army
.
The
whiche
sent
forthwith
Hesiodus
Demorātes
&
Anius
into
Misia
&
other
places
for
sufficient
furniture
of
vitelles
&
other
munitions
:
whiche
donne
he
called
for
his
men
of
warre
,
and
praysed
,
admonished
,
and
exhorted
them
to
be
dilgente
,
faythfull
,
and
to
their
superiours
obedient
.
And
after
the
signe
was
geued
,
they
sayled
,
and
finally
came
with
all
their
shippes
vnto
Troye
.
The
Troyanes
beynge
aduertised
thereof
,
defended
theyr
borders
and
limites
manfully
.
Protesilaus
made
excurtions
and
rodes
by
lande
,
beate
downe
and
chased
al
before
him
,
vntyll
that
Hector
mete
him
,
whome
he
slewe
,
chased
the
other
,
and
put
them
out
of
order
.
But
where
Hector
was
not
,
there
,
the
Troyanes
were
chased
&
ouerthrowen
.
And
after
great
occision
and
murther
on
all
partes
,
at
lengthe
commeth
to
the
felde
Achilles
,
constraynynge
the
Troyanes
to
fle
,
and
chased
them
into
Troye
.
And
so
long
continued
the
skyrmysh
,
that
the
nyght
seperated
the
battel
.
Agamemnon
set
the
rest
of
hys
hooste
vpon
the
land
and
campt
all
his
men
together
.
Hector
the
nexte
daye
folowynge
broughte
his
men
out
of
the
citye
,
and
afterwardes
campt
,
and
set
them
al
in
good
order
.
Agamemnon
on
the
other
side
,
wente
with
a
greate
brute
to
mete
him
,
wherof
ensued
a
verye
sharpe
and
furius
battell
,
wherin
was
none
so
valiant
nor
so
strong
,
that
fel
not
to
the
grounde
.
Hector
euen
at
the
first
slewe
Patroclus
,
spoylde
and
cast
him
out
of
the
army
.
Furthermore
he
pursued
Merion
,
the
which
he
slew
in
like
maner
.
And
as
he
was
occupied
&
busy
about
the
spoyle
,
Mnesteus
gaue
him
a
strock
with
his
swerd
in
the
thighe
.
But
notwithstandynge
he
was
so
wounded
,
he
ceased
not
to
laye
on
and
strike
vntyl
he
had
smitten
downe
a
greate
numbre
of
hys
enemies
,
&
manfully
pursuyng
the
other
,
he
caused
than
to
forsak
the
filde
If
Aiax
Thelamonius
had
not
sodenlye
come
thither
,
with
whome
Hector
incountrynge
knewe
that
he
was
of
his
bloude
,
that
is
sonne
of
Hesiona
his
father
Priamus
sister
.
Therefore
at
hys
request
he
caused
the
fier
to
cease
and
to
be
remoued
from
the
Grecians
shippes
and
all
his
armie
to
retire
.
After
that
the
one
had
gratified
the
other
with
gyftes
,
they
departed
good
frendes
.
The
nexte
daye
folowyng
the
Grekes
obtayned
a
truce
.
Agamemnon
to
the
honor
of
Protesilaus
made
noble
funeralles
,
and
caused
al
other
to
be
buryed
.
Achilles
mourned
,
and
celebrated
funerall
playes
for
his
frende
Patroclus
.
Whilest
the
truce
continued
,
Palamedes
continually
moued
sedition
,
sayinge
that
Agamemnon
was
vnworthie
to
be
principal
of
the
army
and
therfore
in
the
presence
of
al
the
men
of
warre
he
shewed
him selfe
,
and
his
willyng
studye
&
diligence
to
the
thinges
pertayning
to
the
war
he
returned
out
of
the
campe
to
set
an
order
in
the
munitions
,
&
in
the
disposition
of
the
watche
,
to
know
and
vnderstand
the
vsual
signes
of
warre
,
to
see
equitie
of
measures
&
waightes
,
&
to
be
shorte
,
for
the
instruction
of
al
the
whole
campe
.
After
this
dede
he
sayd
that
it
was
not
reasonable
,
that
Agamemnon
which
was
chosen
of
a
smal
numbre
of
men
to
this
dignitie
,
shoulde
commaunde
,
and
be
superior
of
all
those
,
the
whiche
were
to
come
to
the
warre
,
consideryng
that
all
inferiours
and
subiectes
do
looke
and
hope
for
some
vertue
in
their
captaynes
In
the
meane
season
that
the
Grekes
quarelled
and
discorded
thus
amonge
them selues
for
the
superioritie
,
and
that
two
yeares
were
expired
,
the
warre
was
renued
and
set
vp
agayne
.
Wherein
of
the
Grecianes
part
were
chiefe
doers
Agamemnon
,
Achilles
and
Deomedes
and
Menclaus
.
Of
the
other
parte
:
Hector
,
Troylus
,
and
Eneas
.
And
when
they
recountred
and
mette
one
with
another
,
ther
was
great
murder
,
and
the
moste
valiantes
of
both
partes
were
slayne
.
Hector
amonge
all
the
other
slew
Boetes
,
Archilocus
,
and
Protenor
.
But
yet
the
nyght
departed
the
battell
.
Then
after
that
Agamemnon
hadde
called
hys
Captaynes
to
counsayle
,
he
boldelye
admonyshed
theym
to
prepare
theym
selues
to
fyghte
,
and
pryncypallye
agaynste
Hector
,
the
whiche
hadde
all
readye
slayne
the
mooste
Ualyaunte
Captaynes
amounge
theym
.
The
nexte
daye
folowynge
in
the
mornynge
,
the
Armye
of
the
Troyannes
was
leadde
and
guydyd
by
Hector
,
Eneas
,
and
Alexander
.
Agaynste
whome
the
force
and
the
wholle
Nobilite
of
the
Grecianes
so
sette
theym selues
,
that
of
bothe
sydes
in
thys
furious
imbekerynge
a
greate
numbre
of
menne
were
slayne
.
There
Meuelaus
&
Aiax
instantly
pursued
Alexander
which
thing
he
perceyuyng
,
with
a
fliyng
darte
smote
Menclaus
through
the
thighe
with
whiche
strocke
notwithstandynge
he
was
moued
with
greate
payne
,
yet
ceased
not
with
Aiax
the
kynge
of
Locrus
to
pursue
hym
.
But
Hector
perceyuyng
hys
brother
in
this
daunger
came
accompanied
with
Eneas
in
his
defence
,
whome
Eneas
brought
out
of
the
myddes
of
the
armye
into
the
city
,
but
the
nyght
ended
the
battell
.
The
next
day
folowyng
,
Achilles
and
Diomedes
guyded
the
armye
:
and
of
the
other
side
Hector
and
Eneas

There

Delpenor
,
Dorius

and
Polixemus

Agamemnon
consideryng
that
his

men
were
slayne
,
retired
,
wherof
the
Troyanes
beynge
verye
ioyfull

returned
to

Agamemnon
helde
a

,
styrde
vp
hys
captaynes
,
and
other
to
sustayne
and
manlye
to
fyght
for
that
that
was
to
come
,
and
by
no

to
leaue
of
:
and
in
asmuche
as
a
great
parte
of
his
armye
was
already
distroyed
,
he
trusted
daye
by
daye
that
a
freshe
company
of
souldiers
shoulde
come
from
Misya
to
ayde
and
succour
them
.
The
nexte
day
folowing
,
he
constrained
at
his
h●oste
and
captaynes
to
go
to
battel
,
and
contrary
wise
the
Troians
were
brought
to
the
filde
vnder
the
conduct
of
Hector
:
where
the
smote
so
rudely
on
the
one
part
and
on
the
other
,
that
there
fell
manye
thousandes
,
bothe
Greekes
and
Troyanes

And
thus
they
continued
manfully
fightynge
for
the

of
foure
score
dayes

Agamemnon
perceiuing
that
his
men
decayed
more
and
more
,
&
in
so
great
a
numbre
,
&
that
he
was
so
greatlye
letted
that
he
could
not
as
yet
intend
to
bury
,
his
deade
corpses
:
he
demaunded
of
Priamus
by

truce
for

yeres
,
that
thei
might
haue
a
conuenient
time
to

,
aswel
of

&
to

Ulixes

Diomedes
wer
sent
by

towards
Troy
on
this

,
whither
as
thei
were

thei
met
Dolon

which
questioned
with

wherfore
thei

To
whom
the
answered
,
that
thei

Agamemnon
to
Priamus

Priamus
knowing
that
thei
were
come
,
&
perceiuing
theyr
will
I
minde
,
caused
●continent
an
assemble
of
his

&
led
captai●es
,
&
in
the
counsel
he
opened
the
truce
required
of
Agemennon
for
iii.
yeres
,
the
which
Hector
founde
very
suspitius
&
strang
,
because
of
the
long
time
&
continuaunce
therof
.
But
Priamus
willed
●uer●
man
to

Thei
thought
it
good
al
,
to
suffer
the
Grecians
to
haue

for

.
In

These

The

vnder
the
conduct
of
Hector
&
Troylus
.
And
the
Grekes
vnder

They
made

Phidippus

Achilles

Troyanes
And
of

and
an

there
died
a
greate
number
of

and
foote
men
:
yet
that
notwithstandynge
they
ceased
not
to
fight
sharpelye
the
space
of
thirty
dayes
continuallye
.
Priamus
perceyuynge
that
he
had
lost
the
greatest
parte
of
his
host
,
sent
ambassadors
vnto
Agamemnon
to
demaunde
truce
for
sixe
monethes
:
The
whiche
thynge
by
the
deliberation
of
the
counsell
,
was

The
tyme
of

beynge
expired
,
they
fonghte
verye
manfullye
together
by
the
space
of
twelfe
dayes
,
where
that
on
bothe
sydes
manye
stoute
warryers
were
smytten
downe
,
manye
wounded

and

Agamemnon
demaunded
a
truce
of
Priamus
for
thirtye
dayes
,
to
bury
hys
men
the
whiche
wer
slayne
,
whiche
thinge
Priamus
throughe
good
counsel
dyd
graunt
him
.
The
time
of
the
warre
beinge
come
,
the
truce
ended
:
Andromacha
Hectors
wife
had
knowledge
by
her
dreame
which
she
recited
vnto
Hector
,
that
as
that
daye
he
shoulde
not
enter
into
the
battell
,
the
whiche
thinge
Hector
mispraised
and
tooke
it
for
a
fable
and
for
a
womans
dreame
.
Andromacha
beynge
full
of
heauinesse
,
praied
Priamus
to
let
Hector
as
that
day
from
the
battell
.
Therfore
Priamus
sente
Alexander
,
Helenus
,
Troilus
and
En●as
to
the
conflicte
and
battel
.
Hector
perceyuing
that
reproued
greatly
Andromacha
&
bad
her
bryng
hym
forth
his
harnesse
,
for
he
coulde
not
by
no
meanes
stay
hym selfe
.
For
thys
cause
Andromacha
(
the
whiche
had
moued
all
the
citie
with
her
complayntes
and
lamentacions
)
went
towards
Priamus
recytynge
vnto
hym
the
thynge
that
she
by
her
dreame
had
learned
of
Hector
,
and
that
he
not
withstandynge
that
,
by
force
and
hastinesse
hadde
caste
and
conueyed
hymselfe
into
the
myddest
of
the
battell
.
And
with
her
sonne
Ast●max
in
her
armes
she
kneled
down
to
Priiamus
,
besechynge
him
that
for
that
daye
,
he
woulde
withdraw
Hector
from
the
battell
Then
Priamus
sent
them
all
to
warre
,
onely
Hector
retayn●d
.
Agamemnon
Achilles
and
Diomedes
,
and
Aiax
Locrus
perceyuinge
the
absence
of
Hector
were
encouraged
,
and
bolded
to
fyght
the
more
sharpely
,
and
in
suche
sorte
that
they
slew
many
cap●aynes
,
and
other
greate
lorde●●
of
Troye
.
Then
Hector
beyng
aduertised
that
in
this
skirmyshe
the
Troynes
were
in
greate
trauayle
and
da●nger●cast
himselfe
into
the
battel
,
and
out
of
hande
kylde
Idumeus
,
L●outheus
,
woundyd
Hiphilus
verye
soore
,
and
with
a
dar●
pearsed
the
thygh
of
Steneleus
.
Achilles
seyng
diuers
of
his
moste
valiannt
menne
caste
downe
by
the
hande
of
Hector
,
prepared
him selfe
agaynste
hym
,
and
inforsed
hym
to
meete
hym
face
to
face
,
thynkyngeful
wel
that
if
he
ouercame
him
not
that
he
woulde
destroye
,
and
beate
many
of
hys
men
:
but
in
the
meane
season
the
battell
was
verye
soore
.
Hector
in
this
conflicte
and
battell
slewe
Polibetes
a
verye
excellent
captayne
,
and
as
he
enforsed
hym selfe
to
spoyle
hym
,
Achilles
came
,
so
that
the
fighte
was
augmented
,
and
a
great
brute
moued
thoroweout
all
the
campe
and
citie
,
whome
Hector
finallye
wounded
in
the
thighe
.
Therefore
Achilles
moore
cherelye
pursued
hym
,
and
lefte
not
of
his
enterprise
,
vntyl
he
had
smitten
hym
to
deathe
,
put
al
the
Troyanes
to
flyghte
&
chased
them
with
the
Dente
of
the
swearde
vnto
their
towne
gates
,
whome
Memon
resisted
manfullye
,
foughte
with
hym
vntyll
the
nyghte
seperated
theym
bothe
soore
wounded
.
And
amonge
all
other
Achilles
beynge
wounded
departed
frome
the
armye
.
All
that
nyght
the
Troyanes
cessed
not
to
lament
the
deathe
and
the
absence
of
valiaunt
Hector
.
The
nexte
daye
folowynge
the
Troyanes
entred
agayne
into
battel
,
vnder
the
conducte
of
Memon
.
Agamemnon
counsayled
and
perswaded
hys
men
to
require
a
truce
for
two
mouthes
,
that
men
myghte
burye
theym
whiche
were
slayne
in
battell
.
Therfore
they
sent
vnto
Priamus
,
of
whome
they
es●lye
obtayned
theyr
demaunde
.
Then
caused
Priamus
his
son
Hector
to
be
buryed
before
the
gates
Troye
,
and
magnificent
pompes
and
funerall
playes
to
be
celebrated
.
Whyle
the
tyme
of
the
foresayed
truce
endured
,
Palamedes
ceassed
not
to
complayne
of
the
impire
and
principallitie
of
Agamemnon
.
Therefore
Agamemnon
without
anye
contradiction
there
vnto
,
sayde
that
he
woulde
remitte
the
matter
to
the
descretion
and
wyll
of
the
people
.
The
nexte
daye
folowing
,
he
assembled
all
the
people
,
where
he
purged
hym selfe
,
and
shewed
that
he
neuer
coueted
suche
aucthoritye
,
consideryng
that
he
was
kynge
and
lorde
of
Mycenes
,
the
whiche
sufficed
hym
:
but
alonely
the
vtter
destruction
of
Troy
,
&
that
he
woulde
be
well
agreable
to
all
that
the
people
wolde
define
,
and
vnto
hym
that
should
be
set
and
appoynted
vnto
hys
estate
.
Then
in
presence
of
theym
all
,
he
demaunded
of
euerye
man
his
deuyse
.
There
Palamedes
presented
hym selfe
,
willynge
to
cause
men
to
perceyue
and
vnderstande
his
good
spirite
,
iudgement
and
counsayl
,
in
the
feates
of
warre
.
Of
whiche
occasion
,
the
Grekes
appoynted
him
their
graunde
captayne
,
whiche
after
he
had
geuen
theym
thankes
,
began
to
exercyse
the
right
of
that
,
that
not
longe
before
he
had
enterprised
.
Achilles
neuer
approued
but
vtterlye
blamed
this
alteration
,
yet
that
notwithstandynge
(
the
truce
beynge
ended
)
Palamedes
appoynted
his
hoste
in
good
order
,
and
incouraged
them
to
fyght
manfully
.
Deiphobus
on
the
other
parte
dyd
asmuche
for
the
Troyanes
,
the
whiche
at
the
sighte
triumphed
to
fighte
,
amonge
whome
Serpedon
with
his
men
dyd
so
muche
purswed
the
Greekes
,
that
he
kylde
and
smote
downe
a
great
numbre
.
In
this
fyghte
Tlepolemus
Rhodius
met
with
hym
,
the
whiche
aswel
in
the
battel
as
otherwise
was
finallye
ouercommed
.
Secondelye
,
in
hys
stede
and
place
,
Perses
the
sonne
of
Adneste
fortified
and
renued
the
conflicte
,
the
which
likwyse
commynge
to
the
battell
was
slayne
of
Serpedon
almoste
hande
to
hand
.
But
yet
Serpedon
being
soore
wounded
was
compelled
to
withdraw
him selfe
from
the
filde
.
Thus
for
a
certayne
dayes
the
skirmished
and
foughte
,
and
diuers
knyghtes
on
bothe
partes
were
destroyed
and
slayne
,
but
yet
of
Priamus
his
bounde
the
greater
number
.
The
Troyanes
ambassadours
obtayned
a
truce
,
and
for
the
tyme
that
it
endured
,
they
on
bothe
partes
buryed
the
deade
,
prouyded
to
heale
theyr
wounded
.
And
when
on
both
partes
they
had
taken
&
geuen
good
assuraunce
and
promis
,
they
Grekes
went
vnto
Troye
for
theyr
pastime
,
and
the
Troyanes
vnto
the
Greekes
campe
.
In
the
meane
season
Palamedes
sente
Agamemnon
Athamantes
&
Demophon
together
vnto
Thesida
to
prepare
muntitiōs
,
and
principallye
to
take
vp
corne
that
grewe
in
Misya
pertaynynge
to
Telephus
,
and
to
cause
it
to
be
broughte
vnto
theym
.
When
they
were
come
to
that
place
,
the
Ambassadours
recited
vnto
Telephus
the
sedicion
of
Palamedes
,
wherwith
he
was
greatlye
miscontent
.
Agamemnon
perceyuyng
this
,
desired
Telephus
not
to
be
displeased
,
seynge
that
the
thynge
was
done
by
hys
wyll
and
consent
.
When
their
shyppes
were
charged
,
they
retourned
.
Palamedes
in
this
passe
tyme
fortified
hys
campe
rounde
aboute
with
fortrases
and
rampers
.
In
the
meane
whyle
the
Trey●mes
also
ouersawe
●h●ir
armye
,
made
walles
,
towres
,
diches
,
and
other
mete
&
conuenient
thinges
aswell
for
the
protection
and
defence
of
the
towne
,
as
for
the
instruction
and
feates
of
wa●●e
.
While
these
thinges
now
were
a
doyng
,
Priamus
,
Hecuba
&
Polixena
with
other
prynces
of
●roye
,
celebrated
(
aboute
Hectors
●●aue
)
his
yeare
mynde
,
whither
there
came
Achilles
,
and
beholdyng
Polixena
kynge
Priamus
doughter
,
was
by
and
by
greatly
taken
with
her
loue
.
Then
as
an
impacient
louer
,
he
lyued
for
a
tyme
in
all
solicitude
and
anguyshe
,
partly
because
Agamemnon
was
deposed
from
the
impier
,
and
that
he
was
subiect
to
Palamedes
.
Then
he
sente
a
faythfull
seru●unte
of
hys
a
Troyane
,
vnto
Hecuba
to
demaunde
Polixena
to
be
hys
wyfe
,
and
so
doynge
heard
hys
Myrnidons
woulde
departe
,
and
by
that
meanes
the
reste
of
the
Greekes
.
The
seruaunte
beynge
nowe
come
to
Hecuba
,
shewed
the
content
of
his
legation
&
message
.
Whereunto
the
foresayed
Hecuba
answered
,
that
she
was
wel
contente
,
yf
it
so
pleased
Priamus
her
husbande
.
In
the
meane
whyle
that
she
declared
the
matter
to
Priamus
,
and
that
by
her
commaundement
the
seruaunte
was
departed
:
Agamemnon
wente
with
a
greate
companye
vnto
hys
campe
.
Then
Priamus
to
that
that
Hecuba
had
propounded
vnto
him
,
aunswered
,
that
it
was
a
thinge
impossible
,
not
because
he
estemed
Achilles
to
be
insufficient
,
or
otherwyse
vnworthy
of
hys
aliaunce
,
but
the
the
Grekes
(
although
he
gaue
him
Polixena
,
&
that
he
&
his
bond
departed
)
would
neuer
the
soonerdeparte
.
Furthermore
,
that
it
were
not
reasonable
to
ioyne
and
mary
his
doughter
to
dys
enemye
,
And
therfore
he
estemed
good
,
yf
Achilles
wolde
ensue
and
folowe
hys
interpryse
,
that
they
shoulde
first
and
aboue
al
thinges
,
make
a
perpetuall
peace
betwene
theym
,
and
that
the
Grekes
hooste
shoulde
returne
and
departe
,
so
that
their
aliaunces
and
agrementes
mighte
be
well
assured
and
confirmed
,
and
that
thynge
beynge
once
ended
,
he
woulde
wyllynglye
geue
hym
his
doughter
.
Achilles
euen
as
it
was
appointed
sent
his
seruaunt
agayne
vnto
Hecuba
,
for
to
knowe
the
wyl
and
deliberation
of
Priamus
,
the
whiche
beinge
knowen
,
the
seruaunte
by
and
by
brought
it
vnto
his
maister
.
Therfore
Achilles
beganne
in
presence
of
theym
all
,
greatly
and
by
al
meanes
to
complayne
hym
,
declaring
it
to
be
vnlawful
,
that
for
one
Helen
all
Europe
and
Grece
shuld
be
destroyed
,
and
that
by
so
longe
warre
,
so
great
a
number
of
menne
shoulde
be
loste
,
the
libertie
of
the
countrei
to
be
brought
vnto
bondage
and
caste
vnder
foote
:
therfore
it
wer
good
and
necessary
for
them
to
make
peace
,
and
to
go
their
wayes
.
Thus
thei
consumed
a
whole
yere
.
After
al
this
Palamedes
repayred
and
set
vp
his
army
.
And
on
the
other
part
Deiphobus
.
Achilles
being
not
therwith
content
,
was
not
at
the
skirmish
.
Palamedes
moued
by
a
certaine
occasion
,
〈◊〉
prepared
him selfe
against
Deiphobus
,
that
he
slew
him
:
the
warre
on
the
one
part
&
on
the
other
was
sharply
stird
vp
&
foughten
,
in
that
which
manye
a
man
did
perish
.
Palamedes
in
this
conflicte
held
the
point
,
and
the
voward
,
that
the
more
frely
he
might
●olden
&
stirre
vp
his
men
to
fight
,
&
euen
so
as
thei
met
,
he
slew
Serpedon
the
Troiane
.
And
thinking
to
glorifie
&
to
reioyce

dissembled

matter
,
but
Aiax
Thelamonius
valiantly
sustained
the
thinge
vntill
the
night

The

He

he
shewed
theym
also
,
how

prosperouslye
,
&
that
the
whole
hooste
lyued

vnder

Wherupon
Agamemno
was
chosen
superiour
by
the
whole
consente
of
theym
all
.
The
next
daye
folowing
the
Troyanes
went
forth
boldely
to
the
batell
,
and
so
dyd
Agamemnon
,
vntil
that
on
bothe
partes
thei
were
chased
one
from
the
other
.
But
after
the
daye
was
well
spent
Troylus
retourneth
with
the
firste
into
the
filde
,
and
foughte
strongly
,
killyng
and

,
insomuche
that
he
chased
the
Grekes
into

And
agayne
,
the
nexte
daye
folowynge
,
the
Troyanes
set
theym selues
firste
in
the
filde
.
And
Agamemnon
agaynst
them
:
ther
was
a
sore
conflicte
seuen
dayes
continuallye
,
in
so
much
that
the
Troyanes
slew
diuers
lordes
and
captaynes
of
the
Greks
.
And
Agamemnon
obtayned
a
truce
for
two
monethes
,
caused
Palamedes
and
other
Lordes
of
Grece
honourablye
to
be
buryed
.
Durynge
the
tyme
of
thys
truce
,
Agamemnon
sente
vnto
Achilles
,
Nestor
,
Ulixes
and
Diomedes
,
prayinge
and
desyryng
him
to
take
deliberation
,
and
to
go
to
warre
.
Achilles
being
heuy
and
sore
troubled
purposed
not
to
geue
one
strok
agaynst
the
Troyanes
,
as
he
had
promised
Hecuba
,
for
the
great
&
singuler
loue
that
he
bare
to
Polixena
,
nor
receyued
not
the
foresaied
embassadors
with
good
countenaunce
.
But
aunswered
theym
that
he
(
all
warre
set
a
parr
)
desired
peace
.
Agamemnon
perceiuing
that
,
calde
his
lordes
and
captaynes
,
and
also
the
better
part
of
his
men
of
warre
to
counsel
,
and
to
take
deliberation
what
were
beste
to
b●
done
in
this
matter
,
&
of
this
he
asked
eueri
mans
●duice
.
Menelaus
began
first
to
animate
Agamemnon
hys
brother
to
warre
,
and
that
for
one
Achilles
he
shuld
not
leaue
of
the
interprise
,
she
wyng
them
that
the
strength
of
the
Troyans
was
greatly
broken
and
demished
throughe
the
absence
of
Hector
,
consederynge
that
thei
in
al
their
bandes
hadde
none
lyke
vnto
hym
.
Contrarye
wyse
Diomedes
and
Ulixes
dyd
stifelye
affirme
that
Troylus
was
euen
as
wyse
,
and
as
valiaunt
as
euer
was
Hector
.
Agaynst
whome
Menelaus
resistynge
,
ceased
not
as
before
to
persuade
the
warre
.
And
to
this
purpose
Calchas
(
taughte
by
the
oracle
)
perswaded
the
warre
,
and
in
the
same
he
promysed
the
Greekes
to
be
victorious
.
The
tyme
of
truce
being
expired
,
the
Greekes
went
to
the
filde
,
vnder
the
conduct
of
Agamemnon
,
Mekelans
,
Diomedes
and
Aiax
,
where
thei
fought
very
strongelye
to
the
great
occision
of
the
one
part
and
of
the
other
.
Troylus
wounded
Menelaus
verye
greuouslye
,
and
slewe
manye
,
the
other
he
chased
at
the
poynte
of
hys
swearde
,
so
that
the
nighte
seperated
theym
.
The
nexte
daye
all
the
Greekes
foughte
strongelye
agaynste
the
Troyanes
,
prepared
to
fight
by
Troylus
and
Alexander
,
Troylus
hurte
Diomedes
,
and
did
asmuche
pursuynge
Agamemnon
,
and
afterwardes
manye
other
.
Thus
thei
continued
sharply
fightyng
for
certayne
dayes
,
and
a
great
numbre
of
men
were
smitten
down
on
euerye
parte
.
Agamemnon
considerynge
that
daye
by
daye
he
loste
a
great
number
of
his
men
,
&
that
he
could
no
longer
bere
such
losses
,
demaunded
a
truce
for
vi
.
monethes
,
that
whiche
thinge
Priamus
recited
vnto
the
counsell
,
where
that
amonge
all
the
assembles
,
some
with
all
their
power
withstode
it
,
because
of
the
longe
truce
whiche
they
demannded
:
but
rather
they
required
to
sacke
the
Grecianes
,
to
pille
and
to
spoyle
theym
of
all
their
goodes
,
and
to
sette
their
shyppes
a
fyre
.
Yet
notwithstandynge
after
that
euerye
man
had
sayde
hys
mynde
,
the
truce
by
the
consente
of
theym
all
,
was
graunted
.
Durynge
the
tyme
of
the
truce
,
Agamemnon
dyd
royallye
burye
his
people
,
and
caused
Diomedes
and
Menelaus
the
whiche
were
hurte
,
to
be
moste
diligentlye
intreated
,
and
asmuch
did
the
Troyanes
on
their
part
.
Thys
done
,
Agamemnon
(
the
tyme
of
truce
continuynge
)
wente
hym selfe
by
the
deliberation
of
the
counsell
,
to
Achilles
to
perswade
hym
to
the
warre
.
Achilles
troubled
as
before
,
withstode
it
,
&
wold
be
no
traytour
,
but
sayd
that
it
wer
better
to
demaunde
peace
:
But
because
that
in
this
cace
with
honesty
he
coulde
denie
Agamemnon
nothyng
,
he
promysed
hym
that
in
the
tyme
of
warre
he
woulde
sende
his
men
to
ayde
him
,
praying
him
that
for
the
rest
he
might
be
excused
.
Then
Agamemnon
heartly
thanked
him
.
The
time
of
the
war
comming
on
,
the
Grekes
&
the
Troyans
prepared
themselues
one
against
another
.
Achilles
first
sent
his
Myrmidons
prepared
&
apointed
in
good
&
sufficient
order
,
the
whiche
caused
the
war
to
be
a
great
deale
the
stronger
&
greater
:
this
not
withstanding
Troylus
at
the
firste
shocke

chased
the
Myrmidons
,
made

and
skyrmyges

and
for

that
Aiax
Thelamonius
thoughte
to
do
the
Troyanes
returned
to
their
citie
with
at
honour
and
victorie
.
The
nexte
daye
Agamemnon
with
the
Greekes
and
the
Myrmidons
came
firste
into
the
filde
,
agaynste
whom
Troylus
(
after
longe
&
terrible
war
vnto
the
death
of
many
a
man
)
had
so
strongly
sustained
&
persued
the
Myrmidons
,
that
some
he
chased
,
&
the
other
he
slew
on

For

dayes
,
the
whiche
Priamus
graunted
hym
,
to
do
the
lyke
thynges
on
hys
parte
.
After
the
truce
,
the
Troyanes
and
the
Grekes
as
before
,
beganne
the
war
agayne
,
and
foughte
sharplye
.
Troylus
the
moste
part
of
the
daye
was
the
first
in
the
battel
,
he
fought
merueylously
,
and
smote
manye
to
the
grounde
.
Then
the
Greekes
w●
a
great
clamor
&
crie
fled
their
waies
.
But
when
Achilles
vnderstod
that
Troylus
did
so
furiously
spoil
the
Grekes
,
&
therewith
without
ceasinge
smote
downe
the
Mirmidons
,
he
came
to
the
battel
,
w●
whom
Troylus
valiantly
incountred
,
that
he
wounded
him
very
sore
,
wherof
he
was
constrayned
,
euen
beynge
hurt
to
depart
frome
the
battell
.
Thus
thei
continued
the
space
of
sixe
daies
.
The
seuenth
daye
bothe
the
hoostes
chased
eche
other
,
&
wer
constrayned
mutually
to
retyre
.
Achilles
beyng
absent
for
a
while
because
of
his
woundes
&
paynes
,
set
in
a
raie
,
encouraged
&
commaunded
his
Myrmidons
with
strengthe
&
fiersnes
to
set
vpon
Troylus
person
.
The
same
day
about
the
end
therof
,
Troylus
entred
a
horse
backe
very
ioyful
into
the
battell
,
whereof
the
Grekes
beyng
aduertised
,
cried
out
mainlye
,
so
that
the
Myrmidons
comminge
to
there
ayde
made
theyr
whole
force
and
battel
according
to
Achilles
commaundement
agaynst
Troylus
,
by
whome
a
great
number
of
theym
were
slayne
.
In
this
cruell
and
stronge
battell
Troylus
horse
was
wounded
and
fel
downe
betwixt
his
legges
,
so
that
Troylus
being
let
through
the
fal
so
hys
horse
,
&
the
straytnes
of
his
harnes
,
was
constrained
to
fall
,
whereof
Achilles
being
aduertised
,
came
w●
al
spede
,
slew
him
,
and
would
haue
drawen
him
a
syde
and
caried
hym
away
,
but
that
he
was
let
by
Memnon
,
the
whiche
came
sodenly
vpon
hym
.
This
Memnon
after
he
had
taken
away
and
deliuered
the
body
of
Troylus
from
the
enemies
,
wounded
Achilles
,
by
meanes
wherof
he
departed
from
the
battel
,
the
which
Memnon
perceyuing
,
with
a
company
of
Troyanes
perswed
him
,
of
whom
Achilles
hauing
knoledge
,
and
his
woundes
beinge
somwhat
amended
,
fought
in
such
sorte
for
a
tyme
,
that
through
many
&
violent
woundes
he
kilde
him
,
&
so
wounded
departed
.
After
that
the
kynge
of
Perses
was
slayne
,
the
rest
fled
to
the
towne
,
so
that
the
night
did
seuer
and
depart
them
.
And
therfore
the
next
dai
(
the
gates
being
spard
)
Priamus
sent
vnto
Agamemnon
,
demaundynge
a
truce
for
twentye
day●s
,
the
whiche
was
graunted
him
.
Priamus
caused
Troilus
and
Memnon
to
be
buried
with
greate
pompe
and
triumph
,
and
aswell
the
Greks
as
the
Troyanes
caus●d
their
dead
corpses
to
be
buryed
.
Hecuba
with
all
he●nes
&
desolation
lamented
that
Achilles
had
so
cruellye
destroyed
her
two
sonnes
Hector
&
Troilus
so
strong
&
valiant
&
in
her
f●minine
counsell
,
she
thought
&
purposed
to
reuenge
such
iniurie
.
Therfore
she
〈◊〉
,
monished
,
and
persuaded
her
son
Alexander
to
reuenge
the
iniurye
done
to
him
&
hys
brethren
:
that
is
secretlye
,
and
by
spies
to
take
Achilles
vnprouided
,
and
to
kyll
hym
.
The
whiche
thinge
thei
might
easely
do
,
in
asmuche
as
Achilles
had
through
a
singuler
desire
demaunded
Polixena
in
mariage
,
and
that
she
,
after
the
will
and
aunswere
of
Priamus
hadde
promysed
her
vnto
him
,
that
there
mighte
be
betwene
theym
a
constante
and
a
perpetuall
peace
.
Then
was
it
purposed
to
lai
an
embushemente
of
men
within
the
temple
of
Apollo
Thymbreus
next
vnto
the
gate
of
Troye
,
whither
Achilles
should
come
and
entreate
of
thys
mariage
,
and
this
done
,
Hecuba
woulde
throughlye
holde
her
content
and
satisfied
,
so
that
Achilles
were
slayne
.
The
which
thinge
Alexander
promysed
to
doe
.
Therfore
in
the
nyght
a
certain
of
the
moste
strongest
of
al
the
hoste
were
chosen
,
and
layed
with
the
watche
worde
in
the
foresaied
temple
.
Hecuba
euen
as
she
promised
,
sent
vnto
Achilles
.
Then
he
being
in
great
loue
with
Polixena
,
purposed
not
to
be
faultye
in
his
parte
.
The
next
daye
folowing
when
Achilles
(
hauing
in
his
company
Antiochus
Nestors
sonne
)
was
come
to
the
place
appointed
,
by
and
by
,
euen
at
his
entring
in

Paris
stirde
vp

the
which
incontinent
began
to

Achilles
&
Antiochus
perceiuinge

with
cast
their
clokes
about
their

,
drewe
oute
their
swerdes
and
slew
many
.
Aleander
killed
firste
Antiochus
,
and
wounded
Achilles
with
many
strokes
.
Aud
thus
died
Achilles
,
whiche
coulde
not
resist
that
,
that
was
so
secretlye
prepared
agaynste
hym
.
Whose
body
Alexander
commaunded
as
a
pray
to
be
cast
to
the
foules
of
the
ayre
.
But
Helenus
be
sought
him
not
to
do
so
,
but
to
deliuer
it
vnto
the
Greekes
.
And
so
thei
bare
it
out
with
Antiochus
vnto
the
Grekes
campe
,
wher
Agamemnon
caused
theym
to
be
buried
with
greate
magnificence
&
honour
.
And
to
the
ende
he
might
the
more
commodiously
buylde
for
Achilles
a
proper
sepulchre
,
he
obtayned
a
truce
of
Priamus
.
After
this
his
great
lordes
&
familiers
amssēbled
vnto
the
consel
,
to
this
end
,
that
the
charges
and
affayres
of
Achilles
mighte
be
committed
to
Aiax

Where
vnto
Aiax
answered
,
that
Achilles
had
yet
one

,
named
Neoptolemus
,
vnto
whome
the
charges
of
hys
father
Achilles
were
moore

and
conuenient
,
then
to
any

and
therfore
it
were
mete

call
hym
to
the
war
,
&
to
restore
vnto
him
the
thing
which
pertayned
vnto
his

.
Whervpon
Menelaus
was
chosen
to
go
into
Scyria
,
to
bryng
Neoptolemus
oute
of
the
handes
of
hys
graundfather
Lycomedes
:
to
the
which
thyng
the
foresayd
Lycomedes
consented
very
wyllyngiye
.
Then
after
that
the
time
of
truce
was
finished
:
Agamemnon
prepared
&
led
forth
his
host
.
And
on
the
other
side
the
Troyans
issuing
out
of
their
citie
,
they
met
together
,
and
●ought
strongly
one
agaynst
the
other
.
Aiax
being
bare
&
without
armer
at
the
clamor
&
brute
that
was
made
,
set
him self
in
the
point
of
the
battel
,
wher
ther
sell
many
aswel
of
the
one
part
as
of
the

Alexander
w●
his
bow
wel

among
whom
he
persed

turned

and
persued
Alexander

.
Aiax
beinge
thus
brooken
,
and
not
able
to

anye
more
because
of
his
wound
which
he
had
receiued

Diomedes

But
the
Troyanes
beynge
very
werye
fled
vnto
their
citie
,
whome
Diomedes
chased

the
walles
.
Then
Agamemnon
with
his
men
of

,
came

and
campt
al

night
about
the
walles
of
the
citie
,
nor
thei
ceased
not
to
watche
and
spie
the
one
after
the
other
.
The
next
daye
folowyng
,
Priamus
caused
the
body
of
his
sonne
Alexander
to
be
buryed
with
great
pompe
,
whose
deth
Helen
for
the
greate
and
mutuall
loue
that
was
betwene
theym
lamented
most
sorofully
.
And
againe
because
that
Paris
hadde
receyued
her
into
his
countrey
most
honourably
,
and
humanely
had
intreated
her
,
Priamus
and
Hecuba
seing
her
in
suche
heuinesse
,
exhorted
her
not
to
forsak
the
Troyanes
,
nor
yet
desire
againe
the
company
of
the
Grecianes
.
The
nexte
daye
Agamemnon
approched
nie
vnto
the
gate
with
hys
armye
,
besiged
the
towne
,
and
prouoked
the
Troyanes
to
war
.
Priamus
on
the
other
syde
,
fortified
and
tamparde
his
citie
,
in
the
meane
space
euerye
man
toke
heede
to
hys
charge
,
lokynge
for
ayde
of
Pente●ilea
with
her
Amazones
.
The
which
comming
incontinentlye
with
her
company
,
brought
forth
her
armye
against
Agamemnon
,
fought
so
valiauntlye
for
certen
daies
,
that
the
Grekes
wer
chased
vnto
their
campe
,
&
partly
ouercomm●d
,
in
so
much
that
if
Diomedes
(
although
with
great
dificulte
)
had
not
resisted
,
the
noble
Penthesilea
had
burnt
the
Greks
shippes
,
&
finallye
spoiled
them
.
The
battell
ended
,
Agamemnon
retired
&
continued
in
his
campe
.
But
Pēthesileacesed
not
from
day
to
day
furiouslye
to
scermishe
,
spoile
,
&
to
prouoke
the
Grekes
to
fight
.
Agamemnon
by
deliberat
consel
fortified
his
campe
,
&
purposed
not
to
go
to
war
vntil
Menelaus
was
returned
,
Wherfore
Menelaus
being
now
returned
from
Sciria
,
deliuered
Achilles
armes
&
other
charges
to
Neoptolemus
the
whiche
after
he
had
receiued
lamented
very
greatly
in
the
Grekes
campe
about
the
tu●●e
of
his
father
Achilles
,
Penthesile●
euen
as
she
was
accustomed
prepared
&
set
her
men
to
the
fild
,
&
came
euen
to
the
Grekes
campe
.
Against
whom
Neoptolemus
the
capten
of
the
Myrmidons
prepared
him selfe
,
and
inlik
mane●
Agamemnon
,
so
that
thei
two
went
together
.
Neoptolemus
made
great
murder
,
against
whom
Penthesilea
resisted
,
&
valiantly
defended
,
&
for
certen
days
they
fought
so
vehementlye
that
of
one
and
other
ther
were
many
slayne
.
But
at
the
length
Penthesilea
hurt
Neoptolemus
,
the
whiche
being
mained
through
great
paine
and
anger
,
slew
Penthesilea
the
princes
of
the
Amozones
,
&
by
this
menes
,
the
rest
of
the
Troyans
fled
to
the
citie
.
Sodenly
the
Grekes
compassed
so
the
town
,
the
wals
,
&
fortes
of
the
Troians
,
that
it
was
impossible
for
theym
to
essue
oute
of
the
towne
anye
moore
.
Antenor
,
Polidamas
and
Eneas
considerynge
and
wayinge
well
this
thing
,
went
vnto
Priamus
solicityng
him
to
see
,
and
by
counsell
to
take
aduisement
,
what
wer
good
to
be
done
,
aswell
for
their
goodes
,
as
for
them selues
.
The
counsel
beinge
assembled
,
Priamus
admonished
euerye
man
to
saye
his
minde
.
Unto
whom
Antenor
shewed
that
the
most
valiauntest
princes
&
protectors
of
the
Troyanes
common
weale
and
libertie
,
the
kinges
children
,
and
like
wise
the
princes
and
captaynes
straungers
were
consumed
:
and
that
on
the
contrarye
syde
the
moste
strongest
and
viliauntest
of
Grece
were
yet
liuynge
,
that
is
,
Agamemnon
,
Menelaus
,
Neoptolemus
,
no
lesse
excellent
then
his
father
Achilles
,
beside
these
,
Diomedes
,
Aiax
Locrus
,
and
manye
other
stronge
,
craftie
,
and
experte
men
,
as
Nestor
&
Ulixes
,
&
that
the
Troyanes
wer
inclosed
on
all
sides
,
beseged
,
and
almost
broken
and
distroyed
.
He
counseled
therfore
to
be
much
better
to
restore
Helen
,
and
all
that
Alexander
and
his
had
taken
&
caried
awaye
,
and
that
so
the
peace
should
be
made
:
After
that
they
had
sufficiently
spoken
of
this
purpose
and
matter
,
the
pusante
Amphimachus
Priamus
sonne
stode
vp
,
and
accused
the
dedes
and
the
sayinges
of
these
,
whiche
fauoured
the
counsel
and
wil
of
Antenor
,
and
shewed
that
thei
shoulde
rather
take
vppon
them
to
send
their
hoost
to
the
feld
,
and
assayle
their
enemies
in
their
campe
,
so
that
they
myghte
other
bryng
the
victory
with
them
,
or
els
ouercommed
,
die
manfully
for
their
countreye
.
Thys
done
Eneas
by
swete
&
loueli
words
spake
against
Amphimacus
persuading
peace
.
It
the
last
Priamus
stode
vp
couragiously
,
embrading
&
laying
many
euill
dedes
vnto
Antenor
&
Eneas
,
as
to
them
that
wer
the
first
authors
of
the
war
,
&
that
embessadors
wer
sent
into
Grece
.
Also
that
the
selfe
same
Antenor
beinge
ambassador
,
&
returning
from
Grece
,
complained
him
that
he
was
con●umeliouslye
entreated
,
&
that
he
therfore
with
al
his
pouer
persuaded
war.
Further
more
,
he
cast
this
in
Eneas
tethe
,
that
he
with
Alexander
had
rauished
Helen
,
and
brought
awai
a
great
bouty
out
of
Grece
.
Therfore
Priamus
was
well
assured
that
peace
ought
not
,
nor
culd
not
be
made
betwene
them
.
The
Priamus
cōmiunded
them
to
be
redy
&
diligently
(
after
the
signe
were
geuen
)
to
issue
out
of
the
●ates
,
other
to
winne
triumphantlye
,
or
to
die
valiantly
.
After
that
Priamus
had
thus
spoken
,
he
dimissed
the
counsel
,
&
accompanied
with
Amphimacus
went
his
wates
,
saiyng
vnto
him
that
he
was
in
great
doubt
that
he
,
his
countre
and
his
goodes
shuld
be
betrayed
,
&
deliuered
by
them
that
had
demaunded
peace
,
into
the
handes
of
his
enemies
Also
he
perceiued
,
that
the●
mights
haue
ayde
&
fauour
of
the
best
parts
of
all
the
common
people
,
&
therefore
he
was
minded
to
put
them
to
death
,
and
if
the
thing
wer
wisely
handled
,
he
trusted
not
onelye
to
defende
his
countrey
,
but
also
to
ouercome
hys
enemies
.
Folowyng
this
purpose
,
he
prayed
and
induced
Amphimacus
to
be
faithfull
and
fauourable
vnto
him
,
&
daily
to
be
redy
&
prepared
to
accomplish
his
interprise
the
better
and
withoute
suspicion
.
And
to
bring
this
to
passe
,
Amphimachus
counseled
him
to
cal
them
to
supper
,
and
to
fayne
some
sacrifice
,
and
sodenly
so
to
take
them
.
Amphimachus
promysed
to
doe
it
,
and
afterwardes
departed
from
Priamus
.
The
self
same
dai
Antenor
,
Polidamas
,
Ucaligon
,
Amphidamas
,
and
Dolon
beinge
assembled
together
,
merueyled
greatly
at
the
pertinacite
of
the
king
,
and
founde
it
to
strang
a
thinge
that
he
loued
rather
to
suffer
his
countreye
,
his
princes
,
and
lordes
perishe
,
then
to
make
anye
peace
.
Wherunto
Antenor
answered
that
he
had
found
a
mete
remedye
for
them
al
,
so
that
al
they
wold
be
faythful
.
Ther
bounde
them
selues
with
one
mynde
vnto
it
.
After
that
he
saw
the
thyng
to
be
so
agreed
vnto
,
he
sent
vnto
Eneas
,
signifiyng
vnto
him
that
the
laud
muste
be
betraied
,
and
he
to
saue
himselfe
and
his
it
was
nedful
,
to
send
someone
to
Agamemnon
to
declare
with
dfligence
and
withoute
suspition
their
wil
and
minde
,
in
asmuche
as
thei
had
sene
Priamus
,
when
anye
man
spake
vnto
him
of
peace
depart
from
the
counsel
very
angrye
,
fearyng
lest
he
should
excogitate
&
inuent
some
new
interprise
.
Thei
all
promisynge
this
with
one
accorde
,
sent
secretly
Polidamas
the
which
was
lest
suspected
amonge
them
,
to
Agamemnon
.
Now
when
he
was
come
to
the
Grecianes
campe
,
hede
clared
vnto
Agamemnon
the
mind
and
wil
of
his
companions
.
Wherfore
Agamemnon
al
that
night
did
secretly
assemble
his
counsell
,
&
declared
what
he
had
perceiued
of
the
Troynes
,
and
hervpon
he
demaunded
euerye
mans
aduice
.
It
semed
good
vnto
them
al
that
f●delite
shulde
be
kept
with
the
traitours
Troyanes
.
But
Ulixes
and
Nestor
said
they
feared
the
enterprise
.
Agaynst
whome
spake
Neoptolemus
,
so
that
there
was
a
di●●sion
amonge
them
.
But
yet
finaliye
thei
agreed
,
to
haue
a
sure
watche
worde
of
Polidamas
the
which
shoulde
be
caried
by
Sinon
to
Eneas
,
Anchises
,
and
Antenor
.
Then
went
Sinon
vnto
Troye
,
&
for
asmuch
as
Amphimachus
has
not
yet
deliuered
the
keyes
to
the
kepers
,
Sinon
gaue
the
watche
worde
,
wherby
he
knewe
of
Eneas
and
Antenor
the
whole
matter
,
the
which
he
reported
to
Agamemnon
.
They
wer

of
this
mynde
,
to
promyse

faythe
,
to
confirme
their
aliaunce
,
and
on

that
in

of
the

Polydamas

the

they
connted
among
them selues
to
be
the

tooken
of

,
that
is
to

that

and
that
ther
were

After
that
the
compacte

Polidamas
returned
into

,
declared

Eneas
and

Antenor

,
vnto

And
doing

thei
thought
vpon

as
a
souerayne
remedy
of
their
prodition
and
treason
,
wherevnto
Neoptolemus
dyd
succoure

Neoptolemus
entred
in
,
&
sette
an
order
and
a
garrison
in
the
towne
:
and
by
Antenor
was
conueyed
and
brought
into
the
kinges
palace
,
wher
was
the
garrison
,
and
the
soueraigne
defence
of
al

Troianes
,
and
from
thence
he
pursued
and
chast
Priamus
vntyll
he

,
where
he
at

Hecuba
also
fliyng
with
Polixena
met
Eneas
,
&
delyuered
her

,
whome
he
set
in
his

Anchises
house
.
Andromacha
and
Cassandra
hid

temple
,
the
Grekes
reased
not
al
that
night
long
to
pylle
,
destroy
,
spoyle
and
cary
away
,
when
it
was
daye
,
Agamemnon
caused
all

called
into
the
castel
,
and
ther
he
gaue
thankes
vnto
the
gods
maysed
his

very
greatly
,
commaunded
the
bouty
to
be
brought
in
,
which
he
equallye
deuided
to
euery
one
of
them
.
This
done
,
he
asked
counsell
and
euerye
mans
aduise
,
whether
it
wer
mete
to
obserue
&
kepe
their

promised
to
Eneas
and
Antenor
the
betraiers
of
their
countrey
.
Wherunto
euery
man
with
one
voyce
aunswered
to
be
lawfull
.
Then
they
called
for
them
to
deliuer
them
such
thynges
as
pertayned
vnto
theym
.
Then
Antenor
demaunded
licence
to
speake
,
the
whiche
thinge
Agamemnon
graunted
him
.
Antenor
at
the
beginnyng
of
his
oration
gaue
thankes
vnto
the
lordes
of
Grece
.
Furthermore
,
he
declared
howe
that
Helenus
&
Cassandra
at
all
times
had
desired
&
counselled
their
father
to
peace
,
and
that
Achilles
at
the
persuation
of
the
foresaid
Helenus
was
buried
.
Therefore
Agamemnon
by
the
minde
of
his
counsell
,
set
Helenus
and
Cassandra
at
liberty
.
Helenus
praied
Agamemnon
for
Hecuba
&
Andromacha
,
geuing
him
to
vnderstande
,
that
they
alwaies
bare
him
good

,
vnto
whom
also

In

,
he
deuided

,
praised
a

,
offered

,
&
purposed
to
returne

:
vpon
the
which
day
,
there
sodenly
arose
greate
and
horrible
tempestes
,
so
that
they
were
for

to

.
Calchas
answered
them
,
that
they
had
not
done
their
duetye
to
the
gods
infernall
.
Neoptolemus
remembred
that
Polixena
for
whom
his
father
Achilles
perished
was
not
founde
in
the
kinges
castel
.
Then
Agamemnon
caused
Antenor
to
be
called
,
&
commaunded
him
to
finde
out
Polixena
with
al
diligence
,
and
to
present
her

hym
.
Then
went
Antenor
to
seeke
for
Polixena
whiche
was
hidden
in
Eneas
house
,
and
brought
her
to
Agamemnon
,
&
deliuered
her

the
whiche
nye
vnto

Agamemnon
prouoked

commaunded
him
quickely
to

After
