And the wounded Eurypylus:

“We’ll all be piling into our black ships soon.

We have no defense left. All our best

Have been hit and are laid up in camp,

And the Trojans only get stronger.

Lend me a hand here. Lead me back to my ship

And cut this arrow out of my thigh.

[870] Wash the blood off in warm water

And put some soothing poultices on it,

The good stuff. They say Achilles taught you

And that he learned from Chiron, the just centaur.

Our medics, Podalirius and Machaon—

One is laid up wounded and needs a doctor himself,

And the other is out there fighting the Trojans.”
