SCENE X. The same. Enter Agamemnon, Ajax, Menelaus, Nestor, Diomedes, and the rest, marching.

Aga.
Hark! hark! what shout is that?

Nest.
Peace, drums.

Sol.
Achilles! Achilles! Hector's slain! Achilles!

Dio.
The bruit is—Hector's slain, and by Achilles.

Ajax.
If it be so, yet bragless let it be;
Great Hector was as good a man as he.

Aga.
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.
[Exeunt.
