And yet it was by your mighty aid they sacked Ilium . Athena For which cause I would join with you to do them harm. Poseidon My powers are ready at your will. What is your intent? Athena I will impose on them a return that is no return. Poseidon While they stay on shore, or as they cross the salt sea? Athena When they have set sail from Ilium for their homes. On them will Zeus also send his rain and fearful hail, and inky tempests from the sky; and he promises to grant me his thunder-bolts to hurl on the Achaeans and fire their ships. And you, for your part, make the Aegean strait to roar with mighty billows and whirlpools, and fill Euboea ’s hollow bay with corpses, that Achaeans may learn henceforth to reverence my temples and regard all other deities.
