Story of King Arthur, in Twelve Tales · Iliad for Boys and Girls-Alfred John Church · 6 Aug 2026 podcast

He was one of the sons of King Priam.

If it had not been for him the city would have been taken long before.

When he saw Paris run away, he was very angry, and said, O Paris, you are good to look at, but you are worth nothing, and the Greeks think that you are the bravest man we have.

You were brave enough to go across the sea and steal the fair Helen from her husband, and now, when he comes to fight with you, you run away.

The Trojans ought to have stoned you to death long ago.

Paris answered, You speak the truth, great Hector.

I am indeed greatly to be blamed.

As for you, you care for nothing but battles, and your heart is made of iron.

But now listen to me.

Set Mendeleus and me to fight, man to man, and let him that conquers have the fair Helen and all her possessions.

If he kills me, let him take her and depart.

But if I kill him, then she shall stay here, so whatever may happen, you will dwell in peace."

hector was very glad to hear his brother paris speak in this way and he went along the line of the trojans holding his spear in the middle this he did to show that he was not meaning to fight and to keep his men in their places that they should not begin the battle at first the greeks made ready spears and stones to throw at him

but agamemnon cried out hold your hands great hector has something to say then every one stood still and listened and hector said hear trojans and greeks what paris says paris who is the cause of this quarrel between us let menelaus and me fight together every one else whether he is greek or trojan shall lay his arms upon the ground and look on while we two fight together

for the fair Helen and her riches we will fight, and the rest will cease from war and be good friends for ever.

When Hector had spoken, King Menelaus stood up and said, Listen to me, for this is my affair.

It is well that the Greeks and the Trojans should be at peace, for there is no quarrel between them.

Let me and Paris fight together, and let him of us two be slain, whose fate it is to die.

And now let us make a sacrifice to the gods, and swear a great oath over it, that we will keep our agreement.

Only let King Priam himself come and offer the sacrifice, and take the oath, for he is more to be trusted than the young men his sons.
