The Argvment.
When Ioue to all the Gods had giuen command,That none, to either host, should helpfull stand;
To Ida he descends: and sees from thence
Iuno and Pallas haste the Greeks defence:
Whose purpose, his command by Iris giuen,
Doth interuent; then came the silent Euen;
When Hector chargde fires should consume the night.
Left Greeks in darkenesse tooke suspected flight.
