They gave a long shout. And godly Odysseus woke up.He sat there and deliberated in his mind and heart:
"Ah me, to what land of mortals have I come this time?Are these men proud and savage and without justice,Or are they friendly to stranders and have a fod-fearing mind?How the sound of girls' voices has sussounded me,Of nymphs, who hold the lofty peaks of mountains,And the sources of rivers and the grassy meadows!Or am I somewhere near men who are of clear speech?Well, come, I shall make a trial myself and see."
