Round their city the Trojans had built a strong wall so that no enemy should attack
Them from the sea. The wall was so broad that people could stand and sit and walk on it.
The great gates stood open and people could go to the seashore outside and come in as they
pleased. But in times of war the gates would be closed ; and then the city was like a strong
fortress, quiet safe from all as by the hills behind. Thus, Troy a strong city, was strongly
protected by the walls and strongly defended by its brave soldiers. But all the kings and
heroes of Greece had declared war against the Trojons, because Paris, a prince of Troy, had
persuaded Helen, wife of a Greek King Menelaus, to elope with him. He had brought her
to Troy. The Greeks wanted to take revenge on Troy for the wrong done to Menelaus. They
sailed to Troy and laid siege to the city. The Trojans, too, foughthard and the siege
continued for ten long years.
