Fig. 40: Sleep and Death Carrying Sarpedon’s Body to Lycia.
(Henry Fuseli 1803).
However, Sarpedon with the Lycians behind him, who were
thrown into the trenches of Troy like a fearless lions, have now
become a great danger for the enemy. Thereupon, the mighty
Patroclus, friend of Achilles, and his army appear before them.
Seeing this powerful commander and the military power under
his command, the Lycians are frightened. The valiant Sarpedon,
who witnessed the retreat of his soldiers, motivates the Lycians
to fight again, even though he is a little uneasy in the face of the
commander Patroklos.
