- this is a short part of the poem the odyssey: Of the cunning hero, The wanderer, blown off course time and again After
he plundered Troy’s sacred heights. Speak Of all the cities he saw, the minds he grasped, The suffering deep in his heart
at sea As he struggled to survive and bring his men home But could not save them, hard as he tried— The
fools—destroyed by their own recklessness When they ate the oxen of Hyperion the Sun, And that god snuffed out
their day of return. Of these things, Speak, Immortal One, And tell the tale once more in our time. By now, all the others
who had fought at Troy— At least those who had survived the war and the sea— Were safely back home. Only
Odysseus Still longed to return to his home and his wife. The nymph Calypso, a powerful goddess— And beautiful—was
clinging to him In her caverns and yearned to possess him.
