The Argvment.
Ioue waking, and beholding Troy in flight,
Chides Iuno, and sends Iris to the fight,
To charge the sea-god, to forsake the field;
And Phœbus, to inuade it, with his shield,
Recouering Hectors broosde, and crased poures.
To field he goes, and makes new conquerours;
The Troians giuing now, the Grecians chace,
Euen to their fleete. Then Aiax turnes his face,
And feeds, with many Troian liues, his ire;
Who then brought brands to set the fleete on fire.
