     summary: When Eumæus had entered the house, Odysseus lingered awhile, gazing sadly at the faithful Argus. Peiræus readily undertook the charge, and this point being settled they thrust out from the shore and rowed away in the direction of the harbour, while Telemachus strode off with rapid footsteps along the path which led to the swineherd's hut. II On the evening before the arrival of Telemachus Odysseus was sitting after supper with Eumæus and the other herdsmen, and wishing to learn the purpose of Eumæus towards him he said: I will no longer be a burden to thee and thy fellows.

     summary: But Eumaeus made answer: It is not I, old man, that shall ever pay the reward of good tidings. He spake to Ulysses:-- Give place, old man, lest I drag thee forth; the young men even now would have it so, but I think it shame to strike such an one as thee.

     summary: As he spake these words, the steps of one crossing the front court were heard, and a noise of the dogs fawning and leaping about as for joy; by which token Eumaeus guessed that it was the prince, who, hearing of a traveller being arrived at Eumaeus's cottage that brought tidings of his father, was come to search the truth; and Eumaeus said, It is the tread of Telemachus, the son of king Ulysses. They expostulated that the nerves of Ulysses seemed to be made of steel, and his limbs not liable to lassitude like other men's; that waking or sleeping seemed indifferent to him; but that they were men, not gods, and felt the common appetites for food and sleep.
