Diomede From the Iliad of Homer (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Diomede: From the Iliad of Homer <p>Of Diomede now Pallas takes control She spreads enchantment through the hero's soul The touch divine invigorates his powers; His heart grows big and his ambition towers With high resolves this day to give his name, Excelling all the Greeks, to deathless fame. She bathes her hero in celestial rays, And sheds around him an incessant blaze; In mutual fires the radiant armor burns. <p>About the Publisher <p>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
