The Iliad: Book IX

1. Achilles says he will not fight again until Hector and kills many Argives. Lines 795-798. I will not think of arming for bloody war again, not till the son of wise King Priam, dazzling Hector batters all the way to the Myrmidon shipss and shelters, slaughtering Argives, gutting the hulls with fire.
2. When he had finished talking to Odysseus. Lines 802-805. So he finished. Then each man, lifting his own two-handled cup, poured it out to the gods, and back they went along the ships, Odysseus in the lead.
3. Odysseus says Achilles is still very angery. Lines 825-829. And the steady, long-enduring Odysseus replied, "Great marshal Atrides, lord of men Agamemnon, that man has no intention of quenching his rage. He's still bursting with anger, more than ever--he spurns you, spurns all your gifts.
4. Lines 835-837. You will never set your eyes on the day of doom that topples looming Troy. Thundering Zeus has spread his hands above her.
5. Diomedes says that Agamemnon should be done with Achilles. He challanges Agamemnon to fight in the front ranks. Line 856. I say have done with the man.(Achilles). Lines 860-865. Go to sleep now, full to your heart's content with food and wine, a soldier's strenghth and nerve. Then when the Dawn's red fingers shine in all their glory, quickly deploy your chariots and battalions, Agamemnon, out in front of the ships-- you spur them on and you yourself, you fight in the front ranks.
