Document Summary
The two sides meet; helen; men"s space and women"s space; two brother contrasted. In the simile there is always some sort of nature involved such as birds, animals or storms. When paris is presented he was way too much gear, he has a sword, a bow, a shield, and two spears, which says he either doesn"t know what he is doing or he isn"t taking the battle seriously. Every warrior has one speciality weapon of choice. Menelaus vs paris= recreating the rings of the war. Summoned by iris (messenger of the gods) (rainbow swoops down every time she delivers a message) Helen is working on making a tapestry (on the war that is occurring) King prium on the wall, is very kind and gentle while talking to helen. The other king is angry with her almost for staring the way in the rst place. Sacri ces and prayers (almost like superstition before the battle)
