Note (return) — BOOK THE SIXTH.
Theodore Alois Buckley translation · Edition 4
“Take me alive, O son of Atreus, and receive a worthy ransom; in my wealthy father’s [house] 236 lie abundant stores, brass and gold, and well-wrought steel; out of which my sire will bestow on thee countless ransom-gifts, if he shall hear that I am alive at the ships of the Greeks.”
