Peneleus

“and ArcesilausArAr and Prothoënor and CloniusClCl; these were they that dwelt in Hyria and rocky Aulis and Schoenus and Scolus and Eteonus with its many ridges, Thespeia, Graea, and spacious Mycalessus; and that dwelt about Harma and Eilesium and Erythrae;”

“lightly passing among them, aroused their strong battalions. To TeucerTeTe first he came and to Leïtus, to bid them on, and to the warrior PeneleosPePe, and Thoas and Deïpyrus, and MerionesMeMe and AntilochusAnAn, masters of the war-cry; to these he spake, spurring them on with winged words:”

“that a kinsman be left him in his halls, to be a warder off of ruin. So spake he, and upon the Argives came sorrow by reason of his exuIting, and beyond all did he stir the soul of wise-hearted PeneleosPePe. He rushed upon Acamas, but Acamas abode not the onset of the prince PeneleosPePe. Howbeit PeneleosPePe thrust and smote Ilioneus,”

“and through the nape ot the neck, and he sank down stretching out both his hands. But PeneleosPePe drawing his sharp sword let drive full upon his neck, and smote off to the the ground the head with the helmet, and still the mighty spear stood in the eye; and holding it on high like a poppy-head”

“Then PeneleosPePe and Lyco rushed together, for with their spears either had missed the other, and both had cast in vain; but again they rushed together with their swords. Then Lyco let drive upon the horn of the helm with horse-hair crest, and the sword was shattered at the hilt;”

“and lightened and thundered mightily, and shook the aegis, giving victory to the Trojans, but the Achaeans he drave in rout. First to begin the rout was PeneleosPePe the Boeotian. For as he abode ever facing the foe he was smitten on the surface of the shoulder with a spear, a grazing blow,”
