even so glorious Aias charged tumultuously over the plain on that day, slaying horses and men. Nor did Hector as yet know anything thereof, for he was fighting on the left of all the battle by the banks of the river Scamander, where chiefly the heads of warriors were falling, and a cry unquenchable arose, round about great Nestor and warlike Idomeneus.
οὐ δέ πω Ἕκτωρ πεύθετ' , ἐπεί ῥα μάχης ἐπ' ἀριστερὰ μάρνατο πάσης ὄχθας πὰρ ποταμοῖο Σκαμάνδρου , τῇ ῥα μάλιστα ἀνδρῶν πῖπτε κάρηνα , βοὴ δ' ἄσβεστος ὀρώρει Νέστορά τ' ἀμφὶ μέγαν καὶ ἀρήϊον Ἰδομενῆα .
οὐ δέ πω Ἕκτωρ πυνθάνομαι , ἐπεί ἄρα μάχη ἐπί ἀριστερός μάρναμαι πᾶς ὄχθη παρά ποταμός Σκάμανδρος , τῇ ἄρα μάλιστα ἀνήρ πίπτω κάρηνον , βοή δέ ἄσβεστος ὄρνυμι Νέστωρ τε ἀμφί μέγας καί ἄρειος Ἰδομενεύς .
