The Iliad 10.364–369
But when he was now about to come among the sentinels, as he fled towards the ships, then verily Athene put strength into Tydeus' son, that no man among the brazen-coated Achaeans might before him boast to have dealt the blow, and he come too late. And mighty Diomedes rushed upon him with his spear, and called:
λαοῦ ἀποτμήξαντε διώκετον ἐμμενὲς αἰεί.
ἀλλʼ ὅτε δὴ τάχʼ ἔμελλε μιγήσεσθαι φυλάκεσσι
φεύγων ἐς νῆας, τότε δὴ μένος ἔμβαλʼ Ἀθήνη
Τυδεΐδῃ, ἵνα μή τις Ἀχαιῶν χαλκοχιτώνων
φθαίη ἐπευξάμενος βαλέειν, ὃ δὲ δεύτερος ἔλθοι.
δουρὶ δʼ ἐπαΐσσων προσέφη κρατερὸς Διομήδης·
