" [Footnote 1: The sun god. ] [Footnote 2: The very words of Polyphemus, p. 93. ] [Footnote 3: The oar. ] When he had thus spoken Teiresias vanished into the darkness; and oneby one the spirits came up to the trench, as Odysseus suffered them, and having drunk of the blood obtained strength to speak and answerhis questions. First among them was the spirit of his mother, Anticleia, daughter of Autolycus, who had been hovering near duringhis conference with Teiresias. When she had drunk she said:... "Whencecomest thou, my son? Art thou still wandering on thy long voyage fromTroy, or hast thou been in Ithaca, and seen thy wife?" "Nay, mother, " answered Odysseus, "I am wandering still, stilltreading the path of woe, since the day when I followed Agamemnon toTroy. But tell me now, and answer me truly, what was the manner of thydeath? Came it slowly, by long disease, or did Artemis lay thee low ina moment with a painless arrow from her bow?[1] And tell me of myfather and my son whom I left in Ithaca; do they still hold mypossessions, or hath some other thrust them with violence from myseat?
