I have translated Homer's The Iliad, Book 1.  I began posting my translations
on this listserv for corrections; but, no corrections or comments have come
forth.  I would love to have an absolutely correct translation of Homer; I
simply doubt that I did not make any mistakes.  Perhaps more of you will read
my The Iliad and help with your ideas.  Then, I will feel more like posting
more of it because we will be working together toward accuracy.

Thank you all in advance, peHruS
