Verse
Iliad
Book 5, Line 647 by Samuel Butler (English)
And Sarpedon, leader of the Lycians, answered, "Tlepolemos, your father overthrew Ilion by reason of Laomedon's folly in refusing payment to one who had served him well. He would not give your father the horses which he had come so far to fetch. As for yourself, you shall meet death by my spear. You shall yield glory to myself, and your soul [ psukhê ] to Hades of the noble steeds."
