The History of Troilus and Cressida

Summary

From the book:In Troy, there lies the scene. From isles of GreeceThe princes orgillous, their high blood chaf'd,Have to the port of Athens sent their shipsFraught with the ministers and instrumentsOf cruel war. Sixty and nine that woreTheir crownets regal from th' Athenian bayPut forth toward Phrygia; and their vow is madeTo ransack Troy, within whose strong immuresThe ravish'd Helen, Menelaus' queen,With wanton Paris sleeps-and that's the quarrel.To Tenedos they come,And the deep-drawing barks do there disgorgeTheir war-like fraughtage. Now on Dardan plainsThe fresh and yet unbruised Greeks do pitchTheir brave pavilions: Priam's six-gated city,Dardan, and Tymbria, Helias, Chetas, Troien,And Antenorides, with massy staplesAnd corresponsive and fulfilling bolts,Sperr up the sons of Troy
