Ἕκτορος ὄρσωμεν κρατερὸν μένος ἱπποδάμοιο,
ἤν τινά που Δαναῶν προκαλέσσεται οἰόθεν οἶος
ἀντίβιον μαχέσασθαι ἐν αἰνῇ δηϊοτῆτι,
οἳ δέ κ’ ἀγασσάμενοι χαλκοκνήμιδες Ἀχαιοὶ
οἶον ἐπόρσειαν πολεμίζειν Ἕκτορι δίῳ.
Lets encourage strong horse-taming Hector in the hope that he will challenge one of the Danaans to fight in mortal combat man to man. The bronze-greaved Achaeans will be piqued into putting up one man to fight god-like Hector.
Homer Iliad 7.38-40
