To Hector's lance? Who knows the will of heaven?"  
Pensive he said; then pressing as he lay  
His breathless bosom, tore the lance away;  
And upwards cast the corse: the reeking spear  
He shakes, and charges the bold charioteer.  
But swift Automedon with loosen'd reins  
Rapt in the chariot o'er the distant plains,  
Far from his rage the immortal coursers drove;  
The immortal coursers were the gift of Jove.
