Guerrier en armure bouclant ses grèves et levant un grand bouclier

Patroclus put upon him the glorious armor of the son of Peleus. First he set about his legs the beautiful greaves fitted with silver ankle-clasps. Next he donned about his chest the corselet of the swift-footed son of Aeacus, richly wrought and starred. About his shoulders he slung the bronze-studded silver sword, and thereafter the great and mighty shield. Upon his strong head he set the well-fashioned helmet with its horsehair crest, and terribly the plume nodded from above. Then he took two stout spears that fitted his grasp.
