Achilles, son of [Pilea] and Nereid [Thetidas], was the most capable and worthy warrior from their [Achaioys] heroes. The effort of his mother to keep him far from the war, sending him in Skyros, was proved fruitless. Even if it had not been committed with oath, Achilles decides follows their [Achaioys] in the war, having conscience of his faculties, the particular role that will play the himself in the conduct of war, as well as fact that, with cause of this decision, it will find in all probability premature death. When it was leaves for [Troia], his [Pileas] gave his arms, nuptial gift of gods, when it was wedded with [Thetida]. It still gave him the gift of [Kentayroy] [Cheirona], a [kontari] from timber [melias], so much heavy, so that cannot no one mortal him raise. It did not omit it gives him also the nuptial gift of Neptune, the Blond and [Balio], the immortal horses, that they had also human voice and that him had given birth [Arpyia] [Podargi]. Aged while was [Pileas], it could not accompany the himself his son in the war. Because however Achilles was still [amatho] child, roughly fifteen years, judged [Pileas] deliberate he asks from the Palm, the son of [Amyntora], to accompany him in the expedition as the person that him will advise also his instructor. Front it bids farewell Achilles, made [Pileas] [tama] in the river [Spercheio] him sacrifice fifty [kriaria] and to him offer the hair of his son, if it turned live. And thus, when anymore it had made what passed from his hand, bidded him. Achilles was head of fifty boats manned with [Myrmidones]. It dominates already with his action from the first moment where step their leg [Achaioi] in the coast of [Troias]. Little afterwards the landing it kills the Swan, the son of Neptune, and it forces their [Troes] to withdraw itself in the city. In the first nine years of war it plunders eleven states round [Troia] and twelve in neighbouring islands. The loot from these expeditions it delivered always him in [archistratigo] [Agamemnona], who, after it kept for the portion of lion, shared the rests with choice or with lot ............ Finally, when it reaches the situation in the deadlock, gives his armor in his beloved friend, [Patroklo], in order to it supports their [Achaioys]. And in point of fact, [Patroklos] accomplished it forces in their escape [Troes], it was killed however from [Ektora], who took the arms of Achilles. His [Thetida] brought then new arms made from [Ifaisto] and Achilles, after it was reconciled with [Agamemnona], it was thrown in the battle, in order to it revenges the loss of his friend. It filled then the panic in the orders of [Troon] killing very many from them and forcing them remainder to be closed in the castle of [Troias]. After dramatic duel it killed also [Ektora]. Afterwards it buried with prices [Patroklo] and organised to price sepulchral fights. The corpse of [Ektora] kept him without it buries outside from his scene, in order to him it finally delivers in his father, [Priamo]. The results of anger of Achilles were disastrous for their [Achaioys]. Anger this it will curse him afterwards. His penitence however will come very late for [Patroklo] and for those who other they had been killed.
