…..Rage:

……….Sing, Goddess, Achilles’ rage,

Stanley F. Lombardo (New Orleans, 1943)

Black and murderous, that cost the Greeks

Incalculable pain, pitched countless souls

Of heroes into Hades’ dark,

And left their bodies to rot as feasts

For dogs and birds, as Zeus’ will was done.

..Begin with the clash between Agamemnon—

The Greek warlord—and godlike Achilles.

.

Iliad, I, 1-7
