Act 5, Scene 9: Another part of the plains

SCENE IX. Another part of the plains.

    Enter AGAMEMNON, AJAX, MENELAUS, NESTOR, DIOMEDES, and others, marching. Shouts within

AGAMEMNON

    Hark! hark! what shout is that?

NESTOR

    Peace, drums!

    Within
    Achilles! Achilles! Hector's slain! Achilles.

DIOMEDES

    The bruit is, Hector's slain, and by Achilles.

AJAX

    If it be so, yet bragless let it be;
    Great Hector was a man as good as he.

AGAMEMNON

    March patiently along: let one be sent
    To pray Achilles see us at our tent.
    If in his death the gods have us befriended,
    Great Troy is ours, and our sharp wars are ended.

    Exeunt, marching
