Tell
me, O Muse, of that many-sided hero who traveled far and wide after
he had sacked the famous town of Troy. Many cities did he visit, and
many were the people with whose customs and thinking
[noos] he was acquainted; many things he suffered at
sea while seeking to save his own life [psukhê]
and to achieve the safe homecoming [nostos] of his

heaven grant you a gentle easy passage to eternity? Tell me also
about my father, and the son whom I left behind me; is my property
still in their hands, or has some one else got hold of it, who thinks
that I shall not return to claim it? Tell me again what my wife
intends doing, and in what mind [noos] she is; does
she live with my son and guard my estate securely, or has she made
