Read the beginning of Odysseus’s next adventure. When this story begins, Circe has just finished giving Odysseus advice.
As Circe spoke, Dawn mounted her golden throne,
and on the first rays Circe left me, taking
her way like a great goddess up the island.
I made straight for the ship, roused up the men
to get aboard and cast off at the stern. 5
They scrambled to their places by the rowlocks
and all in line dipped oars in the grey sea.
But soon an off-shore breeze blew to our liking –
a canvas-bellying breeze, a lusty shipmate
sent by the singing nymph with sunbright
hair.10
So we made fast the braces, and we rested,
letting the wind and steersman work the ship.
–The Odyssey,
Homer
