Notes
The exchange of love tokens provides a strand that connects this
scene to the later scenes involving TroilusÂ’ sleeve. In fact, a lot of
the events in this scene connect to later episodes. When Troilus
tells Cressida of the attraction of the Greeks, the reader knows
know she will soon succumb.
This scene also marks the meeting of Diomedes and Cressida and
contrasts Diomedes with Troilus. In his customary way, Troilus
asks Diomedes to treat Cressida well. Troilus is irritated at what
he perceives as flippancy and irreverence. It seems it is hate at
first sight for Troilus and Diomedes.
