Chief of the third of the bands, was the warrior-leader Pisander ; Maimalus' warlike son ; above all of the Myrmidon armies Skilled in the use of the spear — thou only excepted, Patroclus !
Phoenix, driver-of-steeds, was the aged chief of the fourth band : Over the fifth and last, was Alcimedon, son of Laerces.
So, having marshall'd all, well under their leaders, Achilleus, Standing amid their ranks, with vehement ardor address'd them.
" Myrmidons ! do not forget what threats, so long, ye indul...ged in ; ^^ How, in the sharp-beak'd galleys, ye ever were daring the Trojans, — ^While mine anger raged,- — and taunting myself with reproaches.
' Hard-hearted Peleus' son ! 'Twas on gall that thy mother has rear'd thee ; ' Cruel ! to coop up, thus, in the ships, thine unwilling companions !
' Better it were, in the galleys that bound o'er the face of the Ocean, ' Back to return, at once : — So fell is the anger within thee !' Such were the taunts that ye used in your mutinous meetings !
