The Iliad: Book III: 1-315

1. Paris- Lines 24-25. Paris parading there with his big loping strides, flauting before the troops. Paris seems cocky at the beggining of the Book.
2. Hector- Lines 72-75. The heart inside you is always tempered hard, like an ax that goes through wood when a shipwright cuts out ship timbers with every ounce of skill and the blade's weight drives the man's stroke. Hector seems very hardened by war.
3. Priam- Line 127. And lead on Priam too, Priam in all his power. Lines 194-195. Priam, raising his voice, called across to Helen, "Come over here dear child, sit in front of me". Priam is a very powerful king and he usually gets his way.
4. Helen- Lines 216-218. That man is Atreus' son Agamemnon, lord of empires, both a mighty king and a strong spearman too, and he used to be my kinsman, (girl in many relationships) that I am! Helen has a lot of relationships with men and is forced into many of them.
