"Ye kings and warriors! may
your vows be crown'd,
And Troy's proud walls lie level
with the ground.
May Jove restore you when your toils
are o'er
Safe to the pleasures of your native
shore.
But, oh! relieve a wretched parent's
pain,
And give Chryseis to these arms
again;
If mercy fail, yet let my presents
move,
And dread avenging Phoebus, son of
Jove."
The suit was reinforced by the vows
of those it elicited.
Yet troy had already fallen` and the
walls were leveled.
May jove restore troy when their
deeds be seen as correct and done.
So does this vow and suit elicit the
post Trojan unity or is it inciting the old sustem now lying unburied to rot
with its now defunct authority?
Afe to thine own pleasures native to
a free unity that is no more. Is this
also a call to sedition? Or is this the time
of the forming of the troy found later in the tale? Do`es troys authority hold sway with the council?
It is the parent’s dismay with the
wedding and not the authority of past and present If not resolved it will cause
conflict again and the divine ideas will lead to war and the right to do so, as
it did with the incident of Paris and Helen of Greece. For the dread of Phoebus will be avenged as he is also a son of
Jove
Is the word troy mean triyea?
