Iliad 17: 304-311

From the Venetus A MS

Ἕκτωρ δ' αὖτ' Αἴαντος ἀκόντισε δουρὶ φαεινῷ:

ἀλλ' ὃ μὲν ἄντα ἰδὼν ἠλεύατο χαλκεον ἔγχος

τυτθὸν: ὁ δὲ Σχεδίον μεγαθύμου Ἰφίτου υἱόν

Φωκήων ὄχ' ἄριστον: ὃς ἐν κλειτῷ Πανοπῆϊ

οἰκία ναιετάασκε πολέσσι' ἄνδρεσσιν ἀνάσσων:

τὸν βάλ' ὑπὸ κληϊδα μέσην. δια δ' ἀμπερὲς ἄκρη

αἰχμὴ χαλκείη παρὰ νείατον ὦμον ἀνέσχεν:

δούπησεν δὲ πεσὼν: ἀράβησε δὲ τεύχε' ἐπ' αὐτῷ:

And Hector in turn cast at Aias with his bright spear, but Aias, looking steadily at him, avoided the spear of bronze albeit by a little, and Hector smote Schedius, son of great-souled Iphitus, far the best of the Phocians, that dwelt in a house in famous Panopeus, and was king over many men. Him Hector smote beneath the midst of the collar-bone, clean through passed the point of bronze, and came out beneath the base of the shoulder. And he fell with a thud, and upon him his armour clanged.
