ILIAD NOUN

ild.11	The son of Tydeus speared Agastrophus son of Paeon in the hip joint with his spear.
ild.11	Diomed had taken the cuirass from off the breast of Agastrophus, his heavy helmet also, and the shield from off his shoulders, when Paris drew his bow and let fly an arrow that sped not from his hand in vain, but pierced the flat of Diomed s right foot, going right through it and fixing itself in the ground.

Arise Greece! from thy silent sleep, 2000 years long it is! Forget not, thy ancient culture, beautiful and marvelous it is!
