Chorus
O famous ships, you that once with countless oars went to Troy, conducting dances with the Nereids, [435] where the music-loving dolphin leapt and rolled at your dark-blue prows, bringing Achilles, the son of Thetis, light in the leap of his foot, [440] with Agamemnon to the banks of Trojan Simois.
