Helen, after the death <strong>of</strong> Paris, married<br />

Deiphobus his brother, and at the taking<br />

<strong>of</strong> Troy betrayed him, in order to reconcile<br />

herself to Menelaus her first husband,<br />

who received her again into favour.<br />

Agamemnon at his return was barbarously<br />

murdered by Ægysthus, at the instigation<br />

<strong>of</strong> Clytemnestra his wife, who<br />

in his absence had dishonoured his bed<br />

with Ægysthus.<br />

Diomed, after the fall <strong>of</strong> Troy, was expelled<br />

his own country, and scarce escaped<br />

with his life from his adulterous<br />

wife Ægiale; but at last was received by<br />

Daunus in Apulia, and shared his kingdom;<br />

it is uncertain how he died.<br />

Nestor lived in peace with his children, in<br />

Pylos, his native country.
