Text Appearing Before Image:
hroughtheir tears, and Hector took off his helmetand set it on the ground. Now, come, he said, and taking the 56 Achilles and Hector babe, he kissed him tenderly and tossedhim up until the little one laughed withglee. Then, for the time was short. Hec-tor held his little son close, while heprayed to Zeus : Great Zeus, grant that this boy maylive and grow, and some day nobly ruleamong the Trojans. May they say, This man is greater than his fatherwas, so that his mother may be glad atheart. He gave the boy into the mothersarms, and she received him, weeping asshe smiled. Hector laid his hand uponher forehead tenderly. Do not grieve for me, beloved wife,he said. I shall not die before my time,and no man, coward or brave, can shunhis destiny. Go home and keep thehouse for us. The cares of war belongto every man in Troy, and most of all tome. He stooped and took his helmet, thenstood by the gate and watched her as shewent toward home, turning often to lookback at him, and weeping silently.
