Iliad
Book 2, Line 445 by Samuel Butler (English)
The chiefs about the son of Atreus chose their men and marshaled [ krinô ] them, while Athena went among them holding her priceless aegis that knows neither age nor death. From it there waved a hundred tassels of pure gold, all deftly woven, and each one of them worth a hundred oxen.
