TROILUS AND CRESSIDA 5.9
| Another part of the plains. |
| |
| | [Enter AGAMEMNON, AJAX, MENELAUS, NESTOR, DIOMEDES, |
| | and others, marching. Shouts within] |
| AGAMEMNON | |
Hark! hark! what shout is that? | |
| NESTOR | |
Peace, drums! | |
| | [Within] |
| | Achilles! Achilles! Hector's slain! Achilles. | |
| DIOMEDES | |
The bruit is, Hector's slain, and by Achilles. | |
| AJAX | |
If it be so, yet bragless let it be; | 5 |
| | Great Hector was a man as good as he. | |
| AGAMEMNON | |
March patiently along: let one be sent | |
| | To pray Achilles see us at our tent. | |
| | If in his death the gods have us befriended, | |
| | Great Troy is ours, and our sharp wars are ended. | 10 |
| | [Exeunt, marching] |
