Dialogue: 0,0:14:58.90,0:15:04.14,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And then the senior leader of the Achaean fleet,
Dialogue: 0,0:15:04.14,0:15:08.31,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,when the Achaean host was grievously afflicted by foul weather

Dialogue: 0,0:17:11.91,0:17:17.27,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And when he put on the yokestrap of necessity,
Dialogue: 0,0:17:19.23,0:17:23.23,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,from that point he turned to a mindset
Dialogue: 0,0:17:26.52,0:17:30.45,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that would stop at nothing.

Dialogue: 0,0:18:01.84,0:18:05.34,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,like a yearling goat, face down,
Dialogue: 0,0:18:05.34,0:18:09.94,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so that her robes fell around her,
Dialogue: 0,0:18:11.20,0:18:14.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and by putting a guard on her fair face and lips
Dialogue: 0,0:18:14.32,0:18:18.86,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to restrain speech that might lay a curse on his house—
Dialogue: 0,0:18:19.12,0:18:24.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,by force, by the silencing power of a bridle.
Dialogue: 0,0:18:24.56,0:18:26.79,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,As she poured saffron dye
