The Odyssey - pg. 66

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."
