ARGUMENT OF THE SIXTEENTH BOOK.
Homer
Achilles, at the suit of Patroclus, grants him his own armor, and
permission to lead the Myrmidons to battle. They, sallying, repulse the
Trojans. Patroclus slays Sarpedon, and Hector, when Apollo had first
stripped off his armor and Euphorbus wounded him, slays Patroclus.
