The Odyssey - Closing

Then bright-eyed Athene spoke out to Odysseus:
"Zeus-born son of Laertes, Odyssey of many wiles,
Hold off and cease from the strife of impartial war,
Lest Zeus, the broad-seeing son of Cronos, in some way get angry."
So Athene said. He obeyed, and rejoiced in his heart.
Then Pallas Athene, daughter of aegis-bearing Zeus,
Established oaths for the future between both sides,
Likening herself to Mentor in form and in voice.
