ILIAD NOUN

ild.08 Hector was greatly grieved at the loss of his Charioteer, but let him lie for all his sorrow, while he went in quest of another driver; nor did his steeds have to go long without one, for he presently found brave Archeptolemus the son of Iphitus, and made him get up behind the Horses, giving the reins into his hand.
ild.08 Again he aimed at Hector, for he was longing to hit him, and again his arrow missed, for Apollo turned it aside; but he hit Hector s brave Charioteer Archeptolemus in the breast, by the nipple, as he was driving furiously into the fight.

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