Step-by-step explanation:

Wuen a question asks to paraphrase something, it is asking you to write down a text or phrase using different words from the original. This is useful when you are writing a text and need to cite some source or another text summarizing its arguments and ideas.

In the quote from The Iliad, we can see that it is a warning that helps us to remeber of the story: if Chryseis, Chryses' daughter, is not sent back to her city (Chrysa), the plagues shall spread and funeral fire increase, that is death and illness will keep increasing.
