Question
This scene marks the only appearance of a “most righteous” character whom Dante is baffled to see in the eyebrow of the eagle of Jupiter in Paradiso. A retelling of this scene is the only surviving work by the author of a lipogrammatic Odyssey, Tryphiodorus. The action of this scene is compared to woodsmen felling a “proud, veteran ash on its mountain summit” after the mist that dulls the protagonist’s mortal sight is cleared, allowing him to see the gods participating in this scene. Rhipheus and Coroebus (*) die in this scene. In this scene, a man agrees to depart after a shooting star appears and his son’s hair is licked with divine fire. Sinon’s treachery allows this scene. In Book II of an epic, the hero’s wife Creusa appears as a ghost as he escapes this scene with his father on his back. For 10 points, name this scene in which Priam is killed in the Aeneid. ■END■
