the-scarlet-crown:The Homeric Epics - Greek Fancast [Cassandra (Κασσάνδρα) - Tety Kalafati (Τέτη Καλαφάτη)] [After the Greeks had killed Hector and were dragging his body around the walls of Troy]No one saw them at first, neither man nor woman,none before Cassandra, golden as goddess Aphrodite.She had climbed to Pergamus heights and from that pointshe saw her beloved father swaying tall in the chariot,flanked by the herald, whose cry could rouse the city.And Cassandra saw him too …drawn by the mules and stretched out on his bier.She screamed and her scream rang out through all Troy:“Come, look down, you men of Troy, you Trojan women!Behold Hector now-if you ever once rejoicedto see him striding home, home alive from battle!He was the greatest joy of Troy and all our people!”- “The Iliad” Book 24 (transl. Robert Fagles) -- source link
