    to tell her mistress that her dear husband was within;

  3. 3

    her knees moved fast, and her feet stumbled with haste.

  4. 4

    She stood above her head and spoke a word to her:

  5. 5

    "Wake up, Penelope, dear child, so that you may see

  6. 6

    with your own eyes what you have longed for all your days.

  7. 7

    Odysseus has come, he has reached his home, late though he comes.

  8. 8

    He has killed the proud suitors, who used to trouble his house,

  9. 9

    and devour his goods, and bully his son."

  10. 10

    Then wise Penelope answered her in turn:

  11. 11

    "Dear nurse, the gods have made you mad — they who can

  12. 12

    make foolish even one who is very prudent,

  13. 13

    and set the feeble-minded on the path of good sense;

  14. 14

    it is they who have hurt you, for before your wits were sound.

  15. 15

    Why do you mock me, when my heart is full of grief,

  16. 16

    telling me this wild tale, and rousing me from sleep,

  17. 17

    sweet sleep, that bound me and wrapped close my dear eyelids?

  18. 18

    Never have I slept so soundly since Odysseus

  19. 19

    went away to see that evil Ilion, not to be named.

  20. 20

    Come now, go back down and away into the hall.

  21. 21

    For if any other of the women who serve me

  22. 22

    had come and told me this and roused me out of sleep,

  23. 23

    I would soon have sent her packing in bitter disgrace

  24. 24

    back into the hall; but this time your age will save you."

  25. 25

    Then the dear nurse Eurycleia answered her:

  26. 26

    "I am not mocking you at all, dear child; truly

  27. 27

    Odysseus has come, he has reached his home, as I tell you —

  28. 28

    the stranger whom they all dishonored in the hall.

  29. 29

    Telemachus has long known that he was within,

  30. 30

    but in his prudence he kept his father's plans hidden,

  31. 31

    so that he might punish the violence of those overbearing men."

  32. 32

    So she spoke, and Penelope rejoiced, and leaping from her bed

  33. 33

    she threw her arms around the old woman, and let a tear fall from her eyes;

  34. 34

    and she spoke to her and addressed her with winged words:

  35. 35

    "Come now, dear nurse, tell me truly:

  36. 36

    if he has really reached his home, as you say,

  37. 37

    how then did he lay his hands on the shameless suitors,

  38. 38

    being alone, while they always stayed gathered within?"

  39. 39

    Then the dear nurse Eurycleia answered her:

  40. 40

    "I did not see it, I did not learn it, I only heard the groaning

  41. 41

    of men being killed; we sat in a corner of the strong-built chambers,

  42. 42

    cowering in fear, and the close-fitted doors held us fast,

  43. 43

    until your son called me out from the hall —

  44. 44

    Telemachus; for his father had sent him to call me.

  45. 45

    Then I found Odysseus among the slaughtered corpses,

  46. 46

    standing; and around him, covering the hard-packed floor,

  47. 47

    they lay one upon another; you would have warmed your heart to see him.

  48. 48

    But now they are all together at the courtyard gates,

  49. 50

    in a heap, while he is fumigating the lovely house,

  50. 51

    having kindled a great fire; and he sent me to call you.

  51. 52

    So come, that you both may enter into joy

  52. 53

    in your two dear hearts, since you have suffered many evils.

  53. 54

    Now at last this long-cherished wish has been fulfilled:

  54. 55

    he has come alive himself to his own hearth, and found both you

  55. 56

    and his son in the halls; and those who did him wrong,

  56. 57

    the suitors — he has paid them all back in his own house."

  57. 58

    Then wise Penelope answered her in turn:

  58. 59

    "Dear nurse, do not yet exult and laugh aloud too soon.

  59. 60

    You know how welcome he would appear in these halls

  60. 61

    to all, and most of all to me and to the son we bore;

  61. 62

    but this is not a true account, the way you tell it.

  62. 63

    Rather, some immortal has killed the proud suitors,

  63. 64

    in outrage at their heart-grieving insolence and evil deeds.

  64. 65

    For they honored no one of men who walk the earth,

  65. 66

    neither base nor noble, whoever came among them;

  66. 67

    so through their own recklessness they suffered evil. But Odysseus

  67. 68

    has lost his return from Achaea, far away, and is himself lost."

  68. 69

    Then the dear nurse Eurycleia answered her:

  69. 70

    "My child, what a word has escaped the barrier of your teeth,

  70. 71

    you who said your husband would never come home,

  71. 72

    though he is here within, beside the hearth; but your heart is always doubting.

  72. 73

    Come, let me tell you yet another clear and certain sign:

  73. 74

    the scar that long ago a boar dealt him with its white tusk.

  74. 75

    I noticed it while washing him, and I wanted to tell you,

  75. 76

    yes, you yourself; but he, gripping my mouth with his hands,

  76. 77

    would not let me speak, in the great cunning of his mind.

  77. 78

    So come with me; and I will wager my own self on it:

  78. 79

    if I am deceiving you, kill me by the most wretched death."

  79. 80

    Then wise Penelope answered her in turn:

  80. 81

    "Dear nurse, it is hard for you to trace the designs

  81. 82

    of the gods who live forever, however shrewd you are.

  82. 83

    But all the same let us go to my son, so that I may see

  83. 84

    the suitors lying dead, and the man who killed them."

  84. 85

    So saying she went down from the upper room; and much her heart

  85. 86

    debated, whether to question her dear husband from a distance,

  86. 87

    or to stand beside him and kiss his head and take his hands.

  87. 88

    But when she had entered and crossed the stone threshold,

  88. 89

    she sat down across from Odysseus, in the firelight,

  89. 90

    by the far wall; and he sat against a tall pillar,

  90. 91

    looking down, waiting to see whether his noble wife

  91. 92

    would say something to him, now that she saw him with her eyes.

  92. 93

    But she sat a long time in silence, and astonishment came over her heart;

  93. 94

    at one moment she would gaze straight into his face,

  94. 95

    and at another she failed to know him in the poor clothes he wore.

  95. 96

    Then Telemachus rebuked her, and spoke and called her by name:

  96. 97

    "Mother of mine, cruel mother, with your unfeeling heart,

  97. 98

    why do you hold yourself so far from my father? Why not sit

  98. 99

    beside him, and ask him questions and inquire?

  99. 100

    No other woman would stand off like this, with stubborn heart,

  100. 101

    from her husband, who after suffering many hardships for her

  101. 102

    had come in the twentieth year to his native land;

  102. 103

    but your heart is always harder than a stone."

  103. 104

    Then wise Penelope answered him in turn:

  104. 105

    "My child, the heart within my breast is stunned,

  105. 106

    and I am unable to say a word to him or to ask anything,

  106. 107

    nor even to look him in the face. But if truly

  107. 108

    this is Odysseus, and he has reached his home, then surely we two

  108. 109

    shall know each other, and the better for it; for we have

  109. 110

    signs, secret ones, that the two of us know, hidden from all others."

  110. 111

    So she spoke, and much-enduring noble Odysseus smiled,

  111. 112

    and at once spoke winged words to Telemachus:

  112. 113

    "Telemachus, leave your mother there in the halls

  113. 114

    to test me; soon she will recognize me even better.

  114. 115

    For now I am filthy, and wear poor clothes on my body,

  115. 116

    and for that reason she scorns me and does not yet say I am he.

  116. 117

    But let us consider how things may turn out best by far.

  117. 118

    For even when a man has killed a single person among his people,

  118. 119

    one who leaves behind no great host of avengers,

  119. 120

    he flees, abandoning his kinsmen and his native land;

  120. 121

    but we have killed the bulwark of the city, the very best

  121. 122

    of the young men in Ithaca; this I urge you to weigh."

  122. 123

    Then wise Telemachus answered him in turn:

  123. 124

    "See to this yourself, dear father; for they say your counsel is the best

  124. 125

    among men, and no other man

  125. 126

    of mortal men could rival you.

  126. 127

    We will follow eagerly at your side, and I think we will not

  127. 128

    fall short in courage, so far as our strength holds out."

  128. 129

    Then Odysseus of many devices answered him and said:

  129. 130

    "Then I will tell you how it seems to me to be best.

  130. 131

    First wash yourselves and put on your tunics,

  131. 132

    and bid the serving-women in the halls to take up their garments;

  132. 133

    and let the divine singer with his clear-toned lyre

  133. 134

    lead off for us a merry dance,

  134. 135

    so that anyone hearing from outside might say there is a wedding,

  135. 136

    whether passing along the road, or among those who dwell nearby;

  136. 137

    so that no wide rumor of the slaughter spreads through the town

  137. 138

    of the suitors, before we have gone out

  138. 139

    to our farm with its many trees; and there afterward

  139. 140

    we will consider whatever advantage the Olympian may grant us."

  140. 141

    So he spoke, and they listened well to him and obeyed.

  141. 142

    First, then, they washed and put on their tunics,

  142. 143

    and the women dressed; and the divine singer took up

  143. 144

    his hollow lyre, and stirred in them the desire

  144. 145

    for sweet song and for the faultless dance.

  145. 146

    And the great house resounded all around with the feet

  146. 147

    of dancing men and fair-girdled women.

  147. 148

    And thus would one say, hearing it from outside the house:

  148. 149

    "Truly someone has married the queen with her many suitors.

  149. 150

    Hard-hearted woman, she could not bear, for her wedded husband,

  150. 151

    to guard the great house to the end, until he should come."

  151. 152

    So one would say, but they did not know how things truly stood.

  152. 153

    Meanwhile great-hearted Odysseus, in his own house,

  153. 154

    was bathed by Eurynome the housekeeper and anointed with oil,

  154. 155

    and she cast about him a fair cloak and a tunic;

  155. 156

    and over his head Athena poured down great beauty,

  156. 157

    making him taller and broader to look upon; and from his head

  157. 158

    she let his curling locks fall, like the hyacinth flower.

  158. 159

    As when a man pours gold over silver,

  159. 160

    a skilled man whom Hephaestus and Pallas Athena have taught

  160. 161

    every kind of craft, and he completes graceful works;

  161. 162

    so she poured grace over his head and shoulders.

  162. 163

    He stepped out of the bath, in body like the immortals;

  163. 164

    and he sat down again on the chair from which he had risen,

  164. 165

    facing his wife, and he spoke a word to her:

  165. 166

    "Strange woman, beyond all soft women

  166. 167

    the dwellers on Olympus have given you an unyielding heart;

  167. 168

    no other woman would hold herself apart, with such a steadfast heart,

  168. 169

    from her husband, who after suffering many hardships

  169. 170

    comes home in the twentieth year to his native land.

  170. 171

    But come, nurse, spread me a bed, so that I myself

  171. 172

    may lie down; for surely the heart in her breast is of iron."

  172. 173

    Then wise Penelope answered him in turn:

  173. 174

    "Strange man, I am neither setting myself above you nor making light of you,

  174. 175

    nor am I overly amazed; I know very well what kind of man you were

  175. 176

    when you went away from Ithaca on the long-oared ship.

  176. 177

    But come, Eurykleia, spread for him the well-made bed,

  177. 178

    outside the well-built bedchamber that he made himself;

  178. 179

    there set out the strong bedstead for him and throw bedding upon it,

  179. 180

    fleeces and cloaks and glossy coverlets."

  180. 181

    So she spoke, testing her husband; but Odysseus,

  181. 182

    in anger, spoke to his wife, who knew careful thoughts:

  182. 183

    "Woman, truly this is a word that pains the heart, that you have spoken!

  183. 184

    Who has set my bed elsewhere? It would be hard,

  184. 185

    even for one very skilled, unless a god himself came

  185. 186

    and easily, if he wished, set it in another place.

  186. 187

    But of living men no mortal, not even one in his prime,

  187. 188

    could easily pry it loose, since a great token is built

  188. 189

    into the well-made bed; I worked it, and no one else.

  189. 190

    A long-leafed olive tree grew inside the courtyard,

  190. 191

    in full flourish, thick as a pillar.

  191. 192

    Around it I built my bedchamber, until I finished it,

  192. 193

    with close-set stones, and I roofed it over well,

  193. 194

    and added jointed doors, closely fitted.

  194. 195

    And then I cut away the crown of the long-leafed olive,

  195. 196

    and trimming the trunk up from the root, I smoothed it with bronze

  196. 197

    well and skillfully, and made it true to the line,

  197. 198

    fashioning the bedpost, and I bored it all through with an auger.

  198. 199

    Beginning from this, I planed the bed until I finished it,

  199. 200

    inlaying it with gold and silver and ivory;

  200. 201

    and I stretched across it an oxhide thong, bright with crimson.

  201. 202

    So I declare this token to you; but I do not know,

  202. 203

    woman, whether my bed is still fixed in place, or whether by now some

  203. 204

    man has set it elsewhere, cutting through the olive's base."

  204. 205

    So he spoke, and on the spot her knees and dear heart went slack,

  205. 206

    as she recognized the sure tokens Odysseus showed her.

  206. 207

    Then weeping she ran straight to him, and around his neck

  207. 208

    she threw her arms, and kissed his head, and spoke:

  208. 209

    "Do not be angry with me, Odysseus, since in all else you were

  209. 210

    the most understanding of men; the gods gave us misery,

  210. 211

    they who begrudged us that we should stay beside each other

  211. 212

    and take our joy in youth, and reach the threshold of old age.

  212. 213

    But now do not be angry with me for this, nor resentful,

  213. 214

    that I did not greet you so lovingly the moment I first saw you.

  214. 215

    For always the heart in my own breast

  215. 216

    was shuddering, lest some mortal should deceive me with his words,

  216. 217

    coming here; for many men plot wicked gains.

  217. 218

    Not even Argive Helen, born of Zeus,

  218. 219

    would have joined a foreign man in love and bed,

  219. 220

    had she known that the warlike sons of the Achaeans

  220. 221

    would bring her back home, to her own dear native land.

  221. 222

    It was a god that drove her to commit that shameful deed;

  222. 223

    and she had not stored up in her own heart, before that,

  223. 224

    that grievous blindness, from which sorrow first came upon us too.

  224. 225

    But now, since you have recounted the unmistakable signs

  225. 226

    of our marriage-bed, which no other mortal has ever seen,

  226. 227

    but you and I alone, and one single handmaid,

  227. 228

    Aktoris, whom my father gave me when I came here,

  228. 229

    who kept the doors of our close-built bedchamber for us both,

  229. 230

    you do indeed convince my heart, hard though it has been.

  230. 231

    So she spoke, and in him she stirred still more the longing for tears;

  231. 232

    and he wept, holding his heart's-delight wife, who knew his loyal mind.

  232. 233

    As when land appears, welcome, to men swimming for it,

  233. 234

    whose well-built ship, out on the deep, Poseidon

  234. 235

    has smashed, as it was driven on by wind and swollen wave;

  235. 236

    few have escaped the grey sea, swimming toward the shore,

  236. 237

    and thick is the brine crusted all over their skin,

  237. 238

    and gladly they set foot on land, having fled disaster;

  238. 239

    so welcome to her was her husband as she gazed upon him,

  239. 240

    and her white arms she would not at all let go from his neck.

  240. 241

    And now rosy-fingered Dawn would have shone upon them weeping,

  241. 242

    had not the goddess, grey-eyed Athena, devised otherwise.

  242. 243

    The long night she held back at its setting, and Dawn in turn

  243. 244

    she stayed at Ocean, the golden-throned, nor let her yoke the horses

  244. 245

    the swift-footed, that bring the light to mortals,

  245. 246

    Lampos and Phaethon, the colts that draw the Dawn.

  246. 247

    And then to his wife spoke Odysseus of many counsels:

  247. 248

    "Wife, we have not yet come to the end of all our trials;

  248. 249

    but there will still be ahead of us toil beyond measure,

  249. 250

    much and hard, all of which I must carry through to the end.

  250. 251

    For so the spirit of Teiresias foretold to me

  251. 252

    on that day when I went down into the house of Hades,

  252. 253

    seeking a way home for my companions and for myself.

  253. 254

    But come, let us go to bed, wife, so that now at last

  254. 255

    we may take our delight beneath sweet sleep, lying down together."

  255. 256

    Then wise Penelope answered him in turn:

  256. 257

    "Your bed shall be ready for you at whatever time

  257. 258

    your heart desires, now that the gods have brought you back

  258. 259

    to your well-built house and to your own native land.

  259. 260

    But since you have spoken of it, and a god has put it in your heart,

  260. 261

    come, tell me of this trial, since later, I think,

  261. 262

    I shall learn of it, and it is no worse to know it at once."

  262. 263

    Then Odysseus of many counsels answered her:

  263. 264

    "Strange woman, why do you so urgently press me

  264. 265

    to tell it? Still, I will speak out and hide nothing.

  265. 266

    Yet your heart will take no joy in it; nor do I myself

  266. 267

    rejoice, since he bade me go to very many cities of men,

  267. 268

    carrying in my hands a well-balanced oar,

  268. 269

    until I come to those men who know nothing of the sea

  269. 270

    and eat no food mixed with salt;

  270. 271

    nor do they know of ships with crimson-painted cheeks,

  271. 272

    nor of well-balanced oars, which are the wings of ships.

  272. 273

    And he told me this unmistakable sign — I will not hide it from you:

  273. 274

    when another traveler, meeting me,

  274. 275

    says I have a winnowing-fan on my shining shoulder,

  275. 276

    then he bade me fix my oar in the earth

  276. 277

    and make fine offerings to lord Poseidon,

  277. 278

    a ram, a bull, and a boar that mounts the sows,

  278. 279

    and then to set off home and offer sacred hecatombs

  279. 280

    to the immortal gods who hold the wide heaven,

  280. 281

    to all in due order; and for me death from the sea

  281. 282

    will come, a death so gentle, that will slay me

  282. 283

    worn out by sleek old age; and around me my people

  283. 284

    will be prosperous. All this, he said, would come to pass."

  284. 285

    Then wise Penelope answered him in turn:

  285. 286

    "If the gods are bringing to pass a better old age,

  286. 287

    then there is hope that there will be an escape from troubles."

  287. 288

    So they spoke such things to one another;

  288. 289

    meanwhile Eurynome and the nurse were making ready the bed

  289. 290

    with soft bedding, by the light of blazing torches.

  290. 291

    But when they had busily spread the close-built bed,

  291. 292

    the old woman went back to her own room to lie down,

  292. 293

    and Eurynome the chambermaid led the way for them,

  293. 294

    as they went to bed, holding a torch in her hands;

  294. 295

    and when she had brought them to the chamber she went back. They then,

  295. 296

    gladly, came to the place of their old bed, its custom established.

  296. 297

    Meanwhile Telemachus and the herdsman and the swineherd

  297. 298

    stayed their feet from the dance, and made the women stay too,

  298. 299

    and they themselves lay down to sleep throughout the shadowy halls.

  299. 300

    But when the two had taken their delight in lovely love,

  300. 301

    they took delight in talk, telling each other their stories,

  301. 302

    she, the queenly woman, all she had endured in the halls,

  302. 303

    looking upon the ruinous throng of the suitors,

  303. 304

    who for her sake slaughtered many cattle and fat sheep,

  304. 305

    and much wine was drawn from the jars;

  305. 306

    and Zeus-born Odysseus, all the woes he had brought

  306. 307

    upon men, and all that he himself had toiled through in misery,

  307. 308

    he told it all; and she rejoiced to listen, nor did sleep

  308. 309

    fall upon her eyelids before he had recounted everything.

  309. 310

    He began with how he first overcame the Kikones, and then

  310. 311

    how he came to the rich land of the Lotus-eaters;

  311. 312

    and all that the Cyclops did, and how he made him pay the penalty

  312. 313

    for his strong companions, whom he ate and showed no pity;

  313. 314

    and how he came to Aeolus, who received him kindly

  314. 315

    and sent him on; but it was not yet his fate to reach

  315. 316

    his dear native land, for a storm-gust snatched him up again

  316. 317

    and bore him over the fish-filled sea, groaning heavily;

  317. 318

    and how he came to Telepylos of the Laestrygonians,

  318. 319

    who destroyed his ships and his well-greaved companions

  319. 320

    all of them; Odysseus alone escaped in his black ship;

  320. 321

    and he told of Circe's guile and her many wiles,

  321. 322

    and how he went to the dank house of Hades

  322. 323

    to consult the spirit of Theban Teiresias,

  323. 324

    in his many-oared ship, and saw all his companions

  324. 325

    and his mother, who bore him and reared him when he was little;

  325. 326

    and how he heard the voice of the thronging Sirens,

  326. 327

    and how he came to the Wandering Rocks and dread Charybdis

  327. 328

    and Scylla, whom no men have ever escaped unscathed;

  328. 329

    and how his companions slew the cattle of the Sun;

  329. 330

    and how Zeus the high-thunderer struck the swift ship with a smoking bolt,

  330. 331

    Zeus the high-thunderer, and his brave companions perished,

  331. 332

    all alike, while he alone escaped the cruel fates of death;

  332. 333

    and how he came to the island of Ogygia and the nymph Calypso,

  333. 334

    who held him back, longing for him to be her husband,

  334. 335

    in her hollow caves, and fed him, and kept promising

  335. 336

    to make him immortal and ageless for all his days;

  336. 337

    but never did she persuade the heart within his breast.

  337. 338

    And how he came to the Phaeacians after much suffering,

  338. 339

    who honored him in their hearts like a god

  339. 340

    and sent him by ship to his own dear native land,

  340. 341

    giving him bronze and gold and clothing in abundance.

  341. 342

    This was the last word he spoke, when sweet sleep,

  342. 343

    loosener of limbs, fell upon him, releasing the cares of his heart.

  343. 344

    Then the goddess, grey-eyed Athena, thought of another thing.

  344. 345

    When she judged that Odysseus had in his heart

  345. 346

    taken his fill of his wife's bed and of sleep,

  346. 347

    at once from Ocean she roused gold-enthroned Dawn,

  347. 348

    the early-born, to bring light to humankind; and Odysseus rose

  348. 349

    from the soft bed, and laid a charge upon his wife:

  349. 350

    "Wife, by now we have had our fill of many trials,

  350. 351

    both of us: you here weeping over my grief-laden return,

  351. 352

    while Zeus and the other gods kept fettering me with sorrows

  352. 353

    as I yearned to return, far from my native land.

  353. 354

    But now that we have both come to the bed we longed for,

  354. 355

    take care of the property that is mine here in the halls.

  355. 356

    As for the flocks the overbearing suitors have ravaged,

  356. 357

    many I will plunder back myself, and others the Achaeans

  357. 358

    will give, until they have filled all my pens again.

  358. 359

    But now I am going to the well-wooded farm

  359. 360

    to see my noble father, who grieves bitterly for me.

  360. 361

    And to you, wife, I give this charge, though you are prudent:

  361. 362

    for at once, with the rising of the sun, word will spread

  362. 363

    about the suitors whom I killed in the halls;

  363. 364

    go up to your upper room with your serving women

  364. 365

    and sit there; look at no one and ask no questions."

  365. 366

    He spoke, and around his shoulders he put on his fine armor,

  366. 367

    and roused Telemachus and the cowherd and the swineherd,

  367. 368

    and bade them all take their war-gear in their hands.

  368. 369

    They did not disobey him, but armed themselves in bronze,

  369. 370

    and opened the doors and went out; Odysseus led the way.

  370. 371

    By now there was light over the earth, but Athena

  371. 372

    hid them in night and swiftly led them out of the city.
