Verse
Iliad
Book 6, Line 11 by Samuel Butler (English)
Then Diomedes killed Axylos son of Teuthranos, a rich man who lived in the strong city of Arisbe, and was beloved by all men; for he had a house by the roadside, and entertained every one who passed; howbeit not one of his guests stood before him to save his life, and Diomedes killed both him and his squire [ therapôn ] Kalesios, who was then his charioteer - so the pair passed beneath the earth.
