and rocky Aulis,
and Schoenos, and Scholos, and hilly Eteonus, Thespia, Graea, and the
ample plain of Mycalessus; and those who dwelt about Harma, and Ilesius,
and Erythrae; and those who possessed Elion, Hyle, Peteon, Ocalea, and
the well-built city Medeon, Copae, Eutressis, and Thisbe abounding in
doves; and those who possessed Coronaea, and grassy Haliartus, and
Plataea; and those who inhabited Glissa, and those who dwelt in
Hypothebae, the well-built city, and in sacred Onchestus, the beauteous
grove of Neptune; and those who inhabited grape-clustered Arne, and
those [who inhabited] Midea, and divine Nissa, and remote Anthedon:
fifty ships of these went to Troy, and in each embarked a hundred and
twenty Boeotian youths.

Those who inhabited Aspledon, and Minyean Orchomenus, these Ascalaphus
and Ialmenus, the sons of Mars, led, whom Astyoche bore to powerful Mars
in the house of Actor, son of Azis: a modest virgin, when she ascended
the upper part of her father's house; but the god secretly embraced her.
Of these thirty hollow ships went in order.

Moreover, Schedius and Epistrophus, sons of magnanimous Iphitus, the son
of Naubolus, led the Phoceans, who possessed Cyparissus, and rocky
Python, and divine Crissa, and Daulis, and Panopea; and those who dwelt
round Anemoria and Hyampolis, and near the sacred river Cephissus, and
those who possessed Lilaea, at the sources of Cephissus: with these forty
dark ships followed. They indeed,[121] going round, arranged the lines
of the Phoceans; and they were drawn up in array near the Boeotians, and
towards the left wing.

[Footnote 121: Schedius and Epistrophus.]

Swift-footed Ajax, the son of Oileus, was leader of the Locrians; less
in stature than, and not so tall as Ajax, the son of Telamon, but much
less. He was small indeed, wearing a linen corslet, but in [the use of]
the spear he surpassed all the Hellenes and Achaeans, who inhabited
Cynus, Opus, Calliarus, Bessa, Scarpha, and pleasant Augeia, and Tarpha,
and Thronium, around the streams of Boagrius. But with him forty dark
ships of the Locrians followed, who dwell beyond sacred Euboea.

The Abantes, breathing strength, who possessed Euboea, and Chalcis, and
Eretria, and grape-clustered Histiaea, and maritime Cerinthus, and the
towering city of Dium, and those who inhabited Carystus and Styra: the
leader of these was Elephenor, of the line of Mars, the son of
Chalcodon, the magnanimous prince of the Abantes. W
