Verse
Iliad
Book 13, Line 1 by Samuel Butler (English)
Now when Zeus had thus brought Hektor and the Trojans to the ships, he left them to their never-ending toil [ ponos ], and turned his keen eyes away, looking elsewhere towards the horse-breeders of Thrace , the Mysians, fighters at close quarters, the noble Hippemolgoi, who live on milk, and the Abians, the most just [ dikaioi ] of humankind. He no longer turned so much as a glance towards Troy , for he did not think that any of the immortals would go and help either Trojans or Danaans.
