§2.803πολλοὶ γὰρ κατὰ ἄστυ μέγα Πριάμου ἐπίκουροι, §2.804ἄλλη δʼ ἄλλων γλῶσσα πολυσπερέων ἀνθρώπων· §2.805τοῖσιν ἕκαστος ἀνὴρ σημαινέτω οἷσί περ ἄρχει, §2.806τῶν δʼ ἐξηγείσθω κοσμησάμενος πολιήτας.
For many are the allies throughout the great city of Priam, and different is the tongue of different widely-scattered men; let each man give command to those whom he rules, and lead them forth, having marshaled his own citizens.
So she spoke, and Hector in no wise ignored the word of the goddess, but straightway dismissed the assembly; and they rushed to arms.
ἐπὶ τεύχεα δʼ ἐσσεύοντο· §2.809πᾶσαι δʼ ὠΐγνυντο πύλαι, ἐκ δʼ ἔσσυτο λαὸς §2.810πεζοί θʼ ἱππῆές τε· πολὺς δʼ ὀρυμαγδὸς ὀρώρει.
And all the gates were opened, and the host rushed forth, both footmen and charioteers; and a great din arose.
§2.811ἔστι δέ τις προπάροιθε πόλιος αἰπεῖα κολώνη §2.812ἐν πεδίῳ ἀπάνευθε περίδρομος ἔνθα καὶ ἔνθα, §2.813τὴν ἤτοι ἄνδρες Βατίειαν κικλήσκουσιν, §2.814ἀθάνατοι δέ τε σῆμα πολυσκάρθμοιο Μυρίνης· §2.815ἔνθα τότε Τρῶές τε διέκριθεν ἠδʼ ἐπίκουροι.
Now there is before the city a certain steep hill, out in the plain apart, with a clear way around it on this side and on that; which men indeed call Batieia, but the immortals call it the tomb of bounding Myrine; there then the Trojans and their allies were marshaled apart.
§2.816Τρωσὶ μὲν ἡγεμόνευε μέγας κορυθαίολος Ἕκτωρ §2.817Πριαμίδης· ἅμα τῷ γε πολὺ πλεῖστοι καὶ ἄριστοι §2.818λαοὶ θωρήσσοντο μεμαότες ἐγχείῃσι.
The Trojans indeed were led by great Hector of the flashing helm, Priam's son; and with him by far the most and the best hosts were armed, eager with their spears.
§2.819Δαρδανίων αὖτʼ ἦρχεν ἐῢς πάϊς Ἀγχίσαο §2.820Αἰνείας, τὸν ὑπʼ Ἀγχίσῃ τέκε δῖʼ Ἀφροδίτη §2.821Ἴδης ἐν κνημοῖσι θεὰ βροτῷ εὐνηθεῖσα, §2.822οὐκ οἶος, ἅμα τῷ γε δύω Ἀντήνορος υἷε §2.823Ἀρχέλοχός τʼ Ἀκάμας τε μάχης εὖ εἰδότε πάσης.
Of the Dardanians again, the noble son of Anchises was leader, Aeneas, whom divine Aphrodite bore beneath Anchises, on the spurs of Ida, a goddess bedded with a mortal; not alone, for with him were Antenor's two sons, Archelochos and Akamas, well skilled in every fight.
§2.824οἳ δὲ Ζέλειαν ἔναιον ὑπαὶ πόδα νείατον Ἴδης §2.825ἀφνειοὶ πίνοντες ὕδωρ μέλαν Αἰσήποιο §2.826Τρῶες, τῶν αὖτʼ ἦρχε Λυκάονος ἀγλαὸς υἱὸς §2.827Πάνδαρος, ᾧ καὶ τόξον Ἀπόλλων αὐτὸς ἔδωκεν.
And they who dwelt in Zeleia beneath the lowest foot of Ida, wealthy men, drinking the dark water of Aisepos, Trojans, of these again Lykaon's glorious son was leader, Pandaros, to whom Apollo himself gave the bow.
§2.828οἳ δʼ Ἀδρήστειάν τʼ εἶχον καὶ δῆμον Ἀπαισοῦ §2.829καὶ Πιτύειαν ἔχον καὶ Τηρείης ὄρος αἰπύ, §2.830τῶν ἦρχʼ Ἄδρηστός τε καὶ Ἄμφιος λινοθώρηξ §2.831υἷε δύω Μέροπος Περκωσίου, ὃς περὶ πάντων §2.832ᾔδεε μαντοσύνας, οὐδὲ οὓς παῖδας ἔασκε §2.833στείχειν ἐς πόλεμον φθισήνορα· τὼ δέ οἱ οὔ τι §2.834πειθέσθην· κῆρες γὰρ ἄγον μέλανος θανάτοιο.
And they who held Adresteia and the land of Apaisos, and held Pityeia and the steep mountain of Tereia, of these Adrestos was leader, and Amphios of the linen corslet, two sons of Merops of Perkote, who beyond all men knew prophesying, and would not suffer his sons to go into man-destroying war; but they in no wise obeyed him, for the fates of black death led them on.
§2.835οἳ δʼ ἄρα Περκώτην καὶ Πράκτιον ἀμφενέμοντο §2.836καὶ Σηστὸν καὶ Ἄβυδον ἔχον καὶ δῖαν Ἀρίσβην, §2.837τῶν αὖθʼ Ὑρτακίδης ἦρχʼ Ἄσιος ὄρχαμος ἀνδρῶν, §2.838Ἄσιος Ὑρτακίδης ὃν Ἀρίσβηθεν φέρον ἵπποι §2.839αἴθωνες μεγάλοι ποταμοῦ ἄπο Σελλήεντος.
And they who dwelt about Perkote and Praktios, and held Sestos and Abydos and divine Arisbe, of these again Hyrtakos' son, Asios, leader of men, was leader, Asios, son of Hyrtakos, whom horses bore from Arisbe, tall tawny horses from the river Selleis.
§2.840Ἱππόθοος δʼ ἄγε φῦλα Πελασγῶν ἐγχεσιμώρων §2.841τῶν οἳ Λάρισαν ἐριβώλακα ναιετάασκον· §2.842τῶν ἦρχʼ Ἱππόθοός τε Πύλαιός τʼ ὄζος Ἄρηος, §2.843υἷε δύω Λήθοιο Πελασγοῦ Τευταμίδαο.
And Hippothoos led the tribes of the Pelasgians, famed for their spears, of them that dwelt in fertile Larissa; of these Hippothoos was leader, and Pylaios, branch of Ares, two sons of Lethos, the Pelasgian, son of Teutamos.
But the Thracians were led by Akamas and the hero Peiroos, even all whom the strong-flowing Hellespont shuts in.
And Euphemos was leader of the Ciconian spearmen, son of Troizenos, son of Ceas, nurtured of Zeus.
§2.848αὐτὰρ Πυραίχμης ἄγε Παίονας ἀγκυλοτόξους §2.849τηλόθεν ἐξ Ἀμυδῶνος ἀπʼ Ἀξιοῦ εὐρὺ ῥέοντος, §2.850Ἀξιοῦ οὗ κάλλιστον ὕδωρ ἐπικίδναται αἶαν.
But Pyraichmes led the Paeonians, with curved bows, from afar, out of Amydon, from the wide-flowing Axios, Axios, whose water flows most fair over the earth.
§2.851Παφλαγόνων δʼ ἡγεῖτο Πυλαιμένεος λάσιον κῆρ §2.852ἐξ Ἐνετῶν, ὅθεν ἡμιόνων γένος ἀγροτεράων, §2.853οἵ ῥα Κύτωρον ἔχον καὶ Σήσαμον ἀμφενέμοντο §2.854ἀμφί τε Παρθένιον ποταμὸν κλυτὰ δώματʼ ἔναιον §2.855Κρῶμνάν τʼ Αἰγιαλόν τε καὶ ὑψηλοὺς Ἐρυθίνους.
And of the Paphlagonians, the shaggy heart of Pylaimenes was leader, from the land of the Eneti, whence is the race of wild mules, who held Kytoros and dwelt about Sesamos, and dwelt in glorious dwellings about the river Parthenios, and Cromna and Aigialos and high Erythini.
But of the Halizones, Odios and Epistrophos were leaders, from afar, out of Alybe, whence is the source of silver.
§2.858Μυσῶν δὲ Χρόμις ἦρχε καὶ Ἔννομος οἰωνιστής· §2.859ἀλλʼ οὐκ οἰωνοῖσιν ἐρύσατο κῆρα μέλαιναν, §2.860ἀλλʼ ἐδάμη ὑπὸ χερσὶ ποδώκεος Αἰακίδαο §2.861ἐν ποταμῷ, ὅθι περ Τρῶας κεράϊζε καὶ ἄλλους.
And of the Mysians, Chromis was leader, and Ennomos the augur; yet he did not ward off black death by his auguries, but was slain beneath the hands of the swift-foot grandson of Aiakos in the river, where he made havoc of the Trojans and of others as well.
§2.862Φόρκυς αὖ Φρύγας ἦγε καὶ Ἀσκάνιος θεοειδὴς §2.863τῆλʼ ἐξ Ἀσκανίης· μέμασαν δʼ ὑσμῖνι μάχεσθαι.
And Phorkys again led the Phrygians, and godlike Askanyos, from afar, out of Askania; and they were eager to fight in the press of battle.
§2.864Μῄοσιν αὖ Μέσθλης τε καὶ Ἄντιφος ἡγησάσθην §2.865υἷε Ταλαιμένεος τὼ Γυγαίη τέκε λίμνη, §2.866οἳ καὶ Μῄονας ἦγον ὑπὸ Τμώλῳ γεγαῶτας.
And the Meonians again were led by Mesthles and Antiphos, two sons of Talaimenes, whom the Gygaean lake bore; and they led the Meonians who were born beneath Tmolos.
§2.867Νάστης αὖ Καρῶν ἡγήσατο βαρβαροφώνων, §2.868οἳ Μίλητον ἔχον Φθιρῶν τʼ ὄρος ἀκριτόφυλλον §2.869Μαιάνδρου τε ῥοὰς Μυκάλης τʼ αἰπεινὰ κάρηνα· §2.870τῶν μὲν ἄρʼ Ἀμφίμαχος καὶ Νάστης ἡγησάσθην, §2.871Νάστης Ἀμφίμαχός τε Νομίονος ἀγλαὰ τέκνα, §2.872ὃς καὶ χρυσὸν ἔχων πόλεμον δʼ ἴεν ἠΰτε κούρη §2.873νήπιος, οὐδέ τί οἱ τό γʼ ἐπήρκεσε λυγρὸν ὄλεθρον, §2.874ἀλλʼ ἐδάμη ὑπὸ χερσὶ ποδώκεος Αἰακίδαο §2.875ἐν ποταμῷ, χρυσὸν δʼ Ἀχιλεὺς ἐκόμισσε δαΐφρων.
And Nastes again led the Carians of uncouth speech, who held Miletos and the mountain of Phthires, thick with leaves, and the streams of Maiandros and the steep crests of Mykale; of these indeed Amphimachos and Nastes were leaders, Nastes and Amphimachos, the glorious children of Nomion, who also went to war wearing gold like a girl, foolish one, nor did this in any wise ward off grievous destruction from him, but he was slain beneath the hands of the swift-foot grandson of Aiakos in the river, and warlike Achilles carried away the gold.
