shall then no more, o sire of gods! be mine
the rights and honours of a power divine?
scorn'd e'en by man, and (oh severe disgrace! )
by soft phaeacians, my degenerate race!
against yon destined head in vain i swore,
and menaced vengeance, ere he reach'd his shore;
to reach his natal shore was thy decree;
mild i obey'd, for who shall war with thee?
behold him landed, careless and asleep,
from all the eluded dangers of the deep;
lo where he lies, amidst a shining store
of brass, rich garments, and refulgent ore;
and bears triumphant to his native isle
a prize more worth than ilion's noble spoil.
