“Beloved Glaucus, mighty among men! Now prove thyself a hero, now be bold. Now, if thou have a warrior’s spirit, think Of nought but battle. Go from rank to rank, Exhorting all the Lycian chiefs to fight Around Sarpedon. Combat thou for me With thy good spear, for I shall be to thee A shame and a reproach through all thy days, If here the Greeks, beside whose ships I fall, Bear off my armor. Stand thou firm, and stir Thy people up to combat valiantly.”
