Line Information

Differences among the manuscripts and editions:
English translations (Windeatt: 1998): Just at that moment Antenor emerged from the Greek host, and everyone was glad about it and said he was welcome. And Troilus—although he was far from light-hearted—tried with all his might to restrain himself from weeping at least, and he kissed Antenor and made much of him.
Japanese translations (Sasamoto: 2012): ちょうどその時ギリシャ軍のもとからアンテノールが姿をあらわしたので、誰もがそのことを喜び、よくぞ帰って来てくれたと言った。トロイルスは心が重かったけれども、せめて泣くことは差し控えようと、全力を尽くして努力し、アンテノールにキスをして出迎えた。
Chinese translations (Fang: 1956): 这时恩吞诺由希腊营中出来，大家高兴，都来欢迎。特罗勒斯却不曾轻松一点，但勉强收住眼泪，吻着恩吞诺，表示应有的厚谊。

Comments from the Editor

Ironically, although the Trojans are happy and welcome Antenor, it is he who later betrays Troy. See also my comment of ‘final’ (adj., Tr4.145).
