Iliad 2 musy to do

"Canst thou, with all a monarch's cares oppress'd,

O Atreus' son! canst thou indulge the rest?⁷⁸

Ill fits a chief who mighty nations guides,

Directs in council, and in war presides,

To whom its safety a whole people owes,

To waste long nights in indolent repose.⁷⁹

Monarch, awake! 'tis Jove's command I bear;

Thou, and thy glory, claim his heavenly care.

In just array draw forth the embattled train,

Lead all thy Grecians to the dusty plain;

[pg 027]

E'en now, O king! 'tis given thee to destroy

The lofty towers of wide-extended Troy.

For now no more the gods with fate contend,

At Juno's suit the heavenly factions end.

Destruction hangs o'er yon devoted wall,

And nodding Ilion waits the impending fall.

Awake, but waking this advice approve,

And trust the vision that descends from Jove."

n    A call to awaken all senses and arms as the trial and battles are called to be.  Be sharp in thy repose oh Atriedes.

The phantom said; then vanish'd from his sight,

Resolves to air, and mixes with the night.

A thousand schemes the monarch's mind employ;

Elate in thought he sacks untaken Troy:

Vain as he was, and to the future blind,

Nor saw what Jove and secret fate design'd,

What mighty toils to either host remain,

What scenes of grief, and numbers of the slain!

n    Take into account what you are about to endevour forth doing.    Be wise to what is about to occure.  Even the after math must be forseen and all possibilities taken into account.

Eager he rises, and in fancy hears

The voice celestial murmuring in his ears.

First on his limbs a slender vest he drew,

Around him next the regal mantle threw,

The embroider'd sandals on his feet were tied;

The starry falchion glitter'd at his side;

And last, his arm the massy sceptre loads,

Unstain'd, immortal, and the gift of gods.

Now rosy Morn ascends the court of Jove,

Lifts up her light, and opens day above.

The king despatch'd his heralds with commands

To range the camp and summon all the bands:

The gathering hosts the monarch's word obey;

While to the fleet Atrides bends his way.

In his black ship the Pylian prince he found;

There calls a senate of the peers around:

The assembly placed, the king of men express'd

The counsels labouring in his artful breast.
