Δηΐπυρον δ' Ἕλενος ξίφεϊ σχεδὸν ήλασε κόρσην
Θρηϊκίῳ, μεγάλῳ, ἀπὸ δὲ τρυφάλειαν ἄραξεν:
ἡ μὲν ἀποπλαγχθεῖσα: χαμαὶ πέσε. καί τις Ἀχαιῶν
μαρναμένων. μετα ποσσὶ κυλινδομένην ἐκόμισσε
τὸν δὲ κατ' ὀφθαλμῶν ἐρεβεννὴ νὺξ ἐκάλυψεν.
Then in close fight Helenus smote Deïpyrus on the temple with a great Thracian sword, and tore away his helm, and the helm, dashed from his head, fell to the ground, and one of the Achaeans gathered it up as it rolled amid the feet of the fighters; and down upon the eyes of Deïpyrus came the darkness of night, and enfolded him.
