The Argvment.
Achilles orders Iusts of exequiesFor his Patroclus; and doth sacrifise
Twelue Troian Princes; most lou'd hounds and horse;
And other offerings, to the honour'd Corse.

Where Diomed, for horse-race, wins the fame:
For foote, Vlysses; others otherwise
Striue, and obtaine: and end the exequies.
