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

He leant down from his chariot and caught up a great stone in his hand and ran at Tusa, that he might crush him to the earth.

And Tusa, when he saw him coming, made haste, and took an arrow from his quiver and fitted it to the sling.

But, even as he drew back the string to his shoulder, the great stone struck him where the collarbone stands out against the neck and the arm.

It broke the bowstring, and made his arm and wrist all weak and numb, so that he could not hold the bow.

And he fell upon his knees, dropping the bow to the ground.

But Ajax stood over him and covered him with his shield, and two of his comrades took him up in their arms, and carried him groaning deeply to the ships.

when the trojans saw the great archer carried away from the battle they took fresh courage and drove back the greeks to the ditch for there was a ditch in front of the wall and hector was always in the very front as a dog follows a wild beast and catches him by the hip or the thigh as he flies so did hector follow the greeks and slay the hindmost of them then hera as she sat on the top of olympus said to athena

But perhaps he may now listen to me, and will let me help the Greeks.'

Make your chariot ready, therefore, and I will put on my armour, so we will go together to the battle.

Maybe that Hector will not be glad when he sees us coming against him.

So Hera made her chariot ready, and Athena put on her armour, and took a great spear, and prepared us for battle.

Then the two mounted the chariot, and the hours opened the gates of heaven for them, and they went towards Troy.

But Zeus saw them from where he sat on the top of Mount Ida,

and he called to iris who is the messenger of the gods and said to her go now iris and tell these two that they had better not set themselves against me if they do then i will lame their horses and throw them down from their chariot and break the chariot in pieces if i do but strike them with my thunderbolt they will not recover from their hurts for ten years and more so iris made all the haste she could and met the two goddesses on their way and gave them the message of zeus
