the gods can fend it away from a man they love, when once
the destructive doom of leveling death has fastened upon him.”
Homer, The Odyssey
“Hear me, men of Ithaca! Hear what I have to say, though my revelations strike the suitors first of all — a great disaster is rolling like a breaker toward their heads. Clearly Odysseus won’t be far from loved ones any longer— now, right now, he’s somewhere near, I tell you, breeding bloody death for all these suitors here, pains aplenty too for the rest of us whi live in Ithaca’s sunlit air.”
Homer, The Odyssey
