The Argvment.

Hector, by Hellenus aduice doth seeke
Aduenturous combat on the boldest Greeke.
Nine Greeks stand vp, Acceptants euery one,
But lot selects strong Aiax Telamon.
Both, with high honor, stand th' important fight,
Till Heralds part them by approched night.
Lastly, they graue the dead: the Greeks erect
A mightie wall, their Name to protect;
Which angers Neptune. Ioue, by haplesse signes,
In depth of night, succeeding woes diuines.
