570 Now fearless enter, and prefer thy pray'rs ; Adjure him by his father's silver hairs, His son, his mother ! urge him to bestow Whatever pity that stern heart can know." Thus having said, he vanish'd from his eyes, 575 And in a moment shot into the skies : The king, confirm'd from heav'n, alighted there, And left his aged herald on the car.
With solemn pace through various rooms he went, And found Achilles in his inner tent : 580 There sate the hero ; Alcimus the brave And great Automedon at...tendance gave ; These serv'd his person at his royal feast ; Around, at awful distance, stood the rest.
Unseen by these, the king his entry made ; 585 And, prostrate now before Achilles laid, Sudden (a venerable sight !) appears ; Embrac'd his knees and bath'd his hands in tears ; Those direful hands his kisses press'd, imbru'd Ev'n with the best, the dearest of his blood !
590 As when a wretch (who, conscious of his crime, Pursu'd for murder, flies his native clime) Digitized by Google BOOK XXIV 97 Just gains some frontier, breathless, pale, amaz'd : All gaze, all wonder : thus Achilles gaz'd : Thus stood th' attendants stupid with surprise ; 595 All mute, yet seemed to question with their eyes : Each look'd on other, none the silence broke.
