After being told he is a “hard man to convince,” this character leaps from his chariot and runs through an army gleaming like a “mountain topped with snow.” This character refuses wine from his mother to keep his strength and does not pray while “spattered with blood and filth.” When this character proposes a pact, he is told that “There can be no covenants between men and lions.” This character and his wife laugh when their son is scared by his (*) plumed helmet. This “breaker of horses” is tricked into not running away from a “swift-footed” rival when he thinks he has help from his brother Deiphobus. An epic poem ends with this character properly buried after his corpse was dragged behind a chariot for 12 days. For 10 points, name this prince of Troy killed in single combat by Achilles in the Iliad. ■END■
