Helen. Troy.

Incidentally, the line about launching a thousand ships comes from this:

Faustus

Was this the face that launch'd a thousand ships,
And burnt the topless towers of Ilium?--
Sweet Helen, make me immortal with a kiss.

This is from The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus, a play published in 1604, by William Shakespeare's contemporary, Christopher Marlowe, after whom Will, Ophelia, and Mercutio's boss is named.
