 Graeci, qui iam decem annos Troiam obsidebant, domum regredi
valde cupiebant. Mussabant igitur, “Quomodo Troiani vincentur?
Consilium novum et melius capiemus. Equum ligneum aedificabimus
quem extra muros urbis relinquemus. In eo ponentur fortissimi e
militibus nostris. Deinde ad insulam vicinam ipsi proficiscemur et nos
ibi celabimus. Fortasse equus in urbem a Troianis trahetur.”
Posquam Graeci abierunt, laetissimi ex urbe egressi sunt Troiani.
Equum ligneum spectant. “Quid est hoc?” rogant. “Cur equus tantus e
ligneo factus est? Cur Graeci hunc equum reliquerunt?”
Alii, “Cavete Graecos!” inquiunt. “Nolite eis credere.” Alii,
“Gaudete!” inquiunt. “Equus, si intra muros ductus erit, urbem nostram
custodiet et defendet.”
Itaque maximo gaudio equum intra muros trahere constituerunt. Nox
erat. Troiani somno vinoque oppressi per totam urbem dormiebant.
Ecce! De equo descenderunt Graeci. Interea ceteri ex insula
regrediebantur et urbem quam celerrime petebant. Ei qui in equo celati
erant portas Graecis aperuerunt. Magno cum strepitu irruperunt.
Undique clamor et tumultus, undique incendia et caedes. Matres
sollicitae cum liberis per vias currebant; flammae omnia delebant. Urbs
tandem capta est.
