Iliad 1 divine guardian justice incited



"Descends Minerva, in her guardian care,
A heavenly witness of the wrongs I bear
From Atreus' son?—Then let those eyes that view
The daring crime, behold the vengeance too."
The incitation of Minerva sets her in a guardian capacity.  Heavenly wit concerning the doings of one good or bad.  This blessing is sent from the son of wisdom intellect. let those who have viewed the crime and even caused it view and even suffer the retribution.
