ὡς οἱ μὲν θεοὶ ἄντα θεῶν ἴ+σαν: αὐτὰρ Ἀχιλλεὺς
Ἕκτορος ἄντα μάλιστα λιλαίετο δῦναι ὅμιλον
Πριαμίδεω. τοῦ γάρ ῥα μάλιστά γε θυμὸς ἀνώγει
αἵματος ᾶσαι Ἄρηα ταλαύρινον πολεμιστήν:
Αἰνείαν δ' ἰ+θὺς λαοσσόος ὦρσεν Ἀπόλλων
ἀντία Πηλείωνος. ἐνῆκε δέ οἱ μένος ἠΰ:
υἱέϊ δὲ Πριάμοιο Λυκάονι εἴσατο φωνήν:
τῷ μιν ἐεισάμενος προσέφη Διὸς υἱὸς Ἀπόλλων:
Αἰνεία. Τρώων βουληφόρε ποῦ τοι ἀπειλαὶ.
ἃς Τρώων βασιλεῦσιν ὑπίσχεο οἰνοποτάζων.
Πηλείδεω Ἀχιλῆος ἐναντίβιον πολεμίξειν.
Thus gods went forth to meet with gods. But Achilles was fain to meet with Hector, Priam's son, above all others in the throng, for with his blood as with that of none other did his spirit bid him glut Ares, the warrior with tough shield of hide. Howbeit Aeneas did Apollo, rouser of hosts, make to go forth to face the son of Peleus, and he put into him great might: and he likened his own voice to that of Lycaon, son of Priam. In his likeness spake unto Aeneas the son of Zeus, Apollo: "Aeneas, counsellor of the Trojans, where be now thy threats, wherewith thou wast wont to declare unto the princes of the Trojans over thy wine, that thou wouldst do battle man to man against Achilles, son of Peleus?"
