Iliad 2 list of beinmgs and atainment to plains needed to be divine leaders.



And Mycalessia's ample piny plain;
Those who in Peteon or Ilesion dwell,
Or Harma where Apollo's prophet fell;

n     These are spiritual plains or attainments a real divine leader obtains. 
Heleon and Hyle, which the springs o'erflow;
And Medeon lofty, and Ocalea low;
Or in the meads of Haliartus stray,
Or Thespia sacred to the god of day:
Onchestus, Neptune's celebrated groves;
Copae, and Thisbe, famed for silver doves;
[pg 041]

n    Refers to all people wgo were leaders including thespian from the future or the godthetic spirit of Christos wife.

For flocks Erythrae, Glissa for the vine;
Platea green, and Nysa the divine;
And they whom Thebe's well-built walls inclose,
Where Myde, Eutresis, Corone, rose;
And Arne rich, with purple harvests crown'd;
And Anthedon, Boeotia's utmost bound.
Full fifty ships they send, and each conveys
Twice sixty warriors through the foaming seas.102
n     Here some of the greater leaders and divine beings are listed as leaders of the graceans who now set sai.
n    The number of worriors are worth noting for a war game.
