Note 127 — Chapter VIII

Κτίσσε δὲ Δαρδανίην· ἐπεὶ οὔπω Ἴλιος ἱρὴ Ἐν πεδίῳ πεπόλιστο, πόλις μερόπων ἀνθρώπων, Ἀλλ’ ἔθ’ ὑπωρείας ᾤκεον πολυπίδακος Ἴδης. “By Dardanus, of cloud-compelling Jove Begotten, was Dardania peopled first, Ere sacred Ilion, populous city of men, Was founded on the plain; as yet they dwelt On spring-abounding Ida’s lowest spurs.”
