    Episode 18: Introjection

    Episode 18: Introjection

    Staring grimly, the proud runner Achilles answered,
    "Beg no more, you fawning dog--begging me by my parents!
    Would to god my rage, my fury would drive me now
    to hack your flesh away and eat you raw--
    such agonies you have caused me! Ransom?
    No man alive could keep the dog-packs off you,
    not if they haul in ten, twenty times that ransom
    and pile it here before me and promise fortunes more--
    no, not even if Dardan Priam should offer to weigh out
    your bulk in gold! Not even then will your noble mother
    lay you on your deathbed, mourn the son she bore...
    The dogs and birds will rend you--blood and bone!"
