Then Peneleus and Lycon engaged in close combat, for they had missed each other with their spears, and both had hurled in vain;[521] therefore they ran on again with their swords; then Lycon on his part struck the cone of the horse-hair-crested helmet, and the sword was broken at the hilt.

[Footnote 521: On [Greek: meleos] see Kennedy. Suidas: [Greek: O men Poietes] (_i.e._ Homer) [Greek: epi tou mataiou endechetai to Meleos oi de tragikoi, epi tou oiktrou.] So Hesych. [Greek: meleos' mataios].]
