Look,
who’s that Achaean there, so stark and grand?
Many others afield are much taller, true,
but I have never yet set eyes on one so regal.
so majestic…That man must be a king!
– Homer
The Iliad, Book 3, lines 202-206. King Priam is speaking to Helen, asking about Agamemnon. He is very impressed by the Achaean leader’s kingly appearance and heroic presence.
