n Was he mad? For what sensible man would dare such a thing? Teucer Do you know a certain Achilleus, the son of Peleus? Helen Yes; he came to woo Helen once, so I hear. Teucer When he died, he left a contest for his armor to his allies. Helen Well, if he did, what harm is this to Aias? Teucer When someone else got the arms, he took his own life. Helen Then are you ill through his suffering? Teucer Yes, because I did not die together with him. Helen So you went to the famous city of Ilion, stranger?

If I were not in a foreign land, you would have died by this well-aimed arrow as a reward for your likeness to the daughter of Zeus. Helen What is it, poor man—who are you, that you have turned away from me and loathe me for the misfortunes of that one?
