23. The next day was very eventful…..
There were
games, singing, dancing, and sports
And he DOMINATED in sports
24. That night, he began to tell the tale
of his EPIC journey back in time
From the lotus eaters
To Circe’s Island
25. His journey began at Ismarus:
“There [he] sacked the city, killed the
men, but as for the wives and plunder,
that rich haul [they] dragged away
from that place – [they] shared it
round so no one, not on [his] account,
would go deprived of his fair share of
spoils.”
Book 9 lines 45 to 49
26. But, that was also where the
trouble began:
They were driven out by the Cicones
and rode out to sea…..
35. But that wasn’t enough for
Odysseus III
No, that would be too easy…..
He had to go and TAUNT him….
36. This is where Poseidon’s hate
started
But not where it ended
37. After the escape from the land of the
Cyclops,
They received help from King Aeolus
in the shape of bags of wind
But they were undone by these
bags, as well as…
43. “’Put your backs in the oars – now
row or die!’ “
Book 10 line 141
With these words, Odysseus urged
his crew on
44. After this, he met his last trouble
that will be talked about now
And that is his time at Circe’s Island
45. At this point, half of his men were
turned into swine
One person made it back, and
warned Odysseus
Odysseus III went off alone for his
men
46. On his way, he met Hermes, who
helped him
Hermes arms him with protection
and plans
This keeps him safe from Circe’s
power
47. In a long while, they were happy
and content for a whole year
Then, they desired to return
home, finally
But before they could go, they
needed to go the Kingdom of the
Dead
48. And that is the story thus far of
Odysseus III
49. And how did he measure up?
Quite well, very much like a
hero, such as Achilles
50. He has proven himself to be
Wise and witty
Brave and courageous
Caring for his men
51. But most of all he has proven
himself to be
HUMAN
52.
