    Summary

    For many of the shades in the underworld, even those in the ostensible paradise of Elysium, the only distraction from their own eternal gloom is observing the tribulations of another. And Patroclus, son of Menoetius attracted an ample audience to his wretched suffering. Of course, he had ignored you and all the rest during that time, giving no indication he even deigned to make himself aware of your presence. In any case, you and others kept a respectful distance.
