Problematic Prose

Posted by jenn on 15 Oct 2014 in Documentation
Note this prose verse from 15.514:

"At that moment the valiant warrior Dolops son of Lampos sprang upon Lampos was son of Laomedon and for his valor, while his son Dolops was versed in all the ways of war. He then struck the middle of the son of Phyleus' shield with his spear, setting on him at close quarters, but his good corselet made with plates of metal saved him;"

I checked it against the OpenLibrary edition, and copied two small grammatical changes which give the passage greater clarity. It now reads:

"At that moment the valiant warrior Dolops son of Lampos sprang upon him; Lampos was son of Laomedon and noted for his valor, while his son Dolops was versed in all the ways of war. He then struck the middle of the son of Phyleus' shield with his spear, setting on him at close quarters, but his good corselet made with plates of metal saved him;"
