Patroclus asks Achilles if he can go into battle and Achilles agrees. I was a little confused at this part but I think Achilles gives Partroclus his armor weapon and horse because it doesn't look like Achilles will be going into battle any time soon.
2. 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?
He means that Achilles is too caught up in his pride and confidence that it is imparing his thoughts and judgement.
3. Either ask questions about the text or write down vocab words from the text with definitions.
I like how Patroclus is finally taking place in the war but why in the world would Achilles sit back and let his best friend go out there and fight without him with the chance Patroclus could die?
