Translated the first ten lines of the Iliad last night, went over them in class today. It is THE very first, the MOST fabulous, the totally most INFLUENTIAL work in the entire history of Western civilization, and WHO gets to read that immortal first line:

"Sing of wrath, Muse, the destructive wrath of the son of Peleus, Achilles"?

Oh yes.
