The Trojan Women
River running by Troy, named as both the site of the captives' distribution and the Achaeans' original landing point.
Scamander’s banks re-echo long and loud the screams of captive maids, as they by lot receive their masters.
For from the day that they landed upon Scamander’s strand, their doom began, not for loss of stolen frontier nor yet for fatherland with high towers;
one toil however I have already spared you, for I crossed Scamander’s stream and bathed the corpse and cleansed its wounds.
