Hi all,
i'm looking for a small part of the Iliad translated by Fagles, in particular where in book 22 Hector faces Achilles, starting from line 260!.
I'll copy the translation of Richmond Lattimore to better understand of what i'm talking about:
Hektor, argue me no agreements!. I cannot forgive you!.
As there are no trustworthy oaths between men and lions,
nor wolves and lambs have spirit that can be brought to agreement
but forever these hold feelings of hate for each other,
so there can be no love between you and me, nor shall there be
oaths between us, but one or the other must fall before then
to glut with his blood Ares the god who fights under the shield's guard!.
