Illiad Book 16: pp. 412-421 (1-333)

What does Patroclus propose to Achilles and what is Achilles’ response? Why does Achilles grant Patroclus’ request?
Patroclus states that Achilles send him to the battle of troy, radther than Achilles himself going.

On p. 413 line 35 (approximately), Patroclus tells Achilles that Achilles is “cursed in [his] own courage.” What does Patroclus mean by that and do you agree with him?
Meaning Achilles is confident in himself and that he is the best.

Either ask questions about the text or write down vocab words from the text with definitions.
