In another legend, Philoctetes was left on Lemnos by the Greeks on their way to Troy; and there he suffered ten years' agony from his wounded foot, until Odysseus and Neoptolemus induced him to accompany them to Troy.
Noutra lenda, Filoctetes foi deixado en Lemnos polos gregos no seu camiño a Troia, e sufriu dez anos de agonía co seu pé ferido, ata que Odiseo e Neoptolemus inducírono a acompañalos a Troia.
