    The earth ran black with blood,

    under Achilles’s chariot splashed with blood,

    Blood on the handrails sweeping round the car,

    sprays of blood shooting up from the stallions hoofs,

    Bloody filth splattering both strong arms


    Achilles storming on with brandished spear
    ❖ Stabbed Dryops right through his neck,
    ❖ Smashed Demuchus’ knee,
    ❖ Slammed both Laogonus and Dardanus,
    ❖ Even though Tros begged to spear him, Achilles slit
    C
    open his liver,
    ❖ Reared and jammed Mulius’s ear, jutting out the ear,
    ❖ Split Agenor’s head,
    ❖ Split Deucalion’s elbow-tendon’s grip,
    ❖ Pierced Rhigmu’s belly,
