Excerpt from The Choice of Achilles, and Other Poems 'Long life and ease, or glory and the grave, Still in my prime Oh for an oracle To sound above these tortures of the mind, And strike their brawling silent Never yet Since deepening manhood darkened first these lips, Bringing the larger choices of the soul, I doubted so before. Or better were it, Being so called by countrymen and friends, The eyes of Greece and Asia looking on As on a stage, to rise, to arm, to go With Godlike men, and on the plains of Troy Do battle for another's scath and wrong? Or to stay here, here honoured, here beloved, A little land's sole greatness? What to me Is Helen? What Atrides? Or the wrong Done to the hospitable board? Avenge, Zeus, thine own wrongs Nay, were she all in one, White as the blossom on an April thorn; Chaste Artemis, with Pallas' wisdom crowned On Aphrodite's bloom; the perfect flower, Not as she is the weed of womankind; Still, were she worth this stir? Ye Gods, I chafe That we, with weightier quarrels of our own, Old feuds unstanched, proud vassals ill-subdued, Life's sweet, strange thirst unslaked, unsatisfied, Should natheless for a woman's lightness bleed, And all too soon end all. Yet am I called, The eyes of Greece and Asia looking on, Watching me choose. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact.
