Brown-haired Achilles stayed in Philyras home, A child whose play was mighty exploits. Often his hands threw The short iron javelin to rival the winds; He dealt death in battle to ravening lions And boars were his prey. Their panting bodies He brought to the Centaur, Kronos son, In his sixth year at first, then through all his days. Artemis marvelled at him, and bold Athena, That he killed deer without hounds or treacherous traps. Pindar, Nemean III
