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

The spear-point grazed his neck, so that the blood spurted out.

Then Hector caught up a great stone that lay upon the ground, and threw it.

and yet once more the great shield stayed him.

Nor could he break through it, and the stone which Ajax threw was heavier by far, and it broke Hector's shield and bore him to the ground, so that he lay on his back upon the ground with the broken shield over him.

Truly it had fared ill for him, but that Apollo raised him up and set him on his feet.

Then the two warriors drew their swords, but before they could get close together,

The two heralds came up and thrust their staves between them, and the Trojan herald said, "'It is enough, my sons, fight no more.

You are great warriors both of you, and Zeus loves you both.

But now the night is at hand, and bids you cease, and you will do well to obey.'

Then said Ajax, "'Yes, herald, but it is for Hector to speak.

For he began this matter, challenging the bravest of the Greeks to fight with him, and what he wills, that I will also.'

Hector said, The herald speaks well.

Verily the gods have given you, O Ajax, stature and strength and skill.

There is no better warrior among the Greeks.

Let us cease them from fighting.

Happily we may meet again another day, and the gods may give victory to you or to me.

But now let us give gifts to each other, so that the Trojans and Greeks may say, Hector and Ajax met in battle, but parted in friendship.

So Hector gave to Ajax a silver-studded sword, with a scabbard and a belt, and Ajax gave to Hector a buckler splendid with purple.

So they parted, and the Trojans were right glad to see Hector coming back, safe from the battle.

On the other hand, the Greeks rejoiced yet more, for indeed their champion had prevailed.
