The Argvment.
Achilles mournes, told of Patroclus end;When Thetis doth from forth the sea ascend,
And comfort him; aduising to abstaine
From any fight, till her request could gaine
Fit armes of Vulcan. Iuno yet commands
To shew himselfe. And at the dike he stands
In sight of th' enemie; who with his sight
Flies; and a number perish in the flight.
Patroclus person (safe brought from the warres)
His souldiers wash. Vulcan the armes prepares.
