And Telemachus, in his clear-headed way:

“My dear guest, you speak to me as kindly

[325] As a father to his son. I will not forget your words.

I know you’re anxious to leave, but please stay

So you can bathe and relax before returning

To your ship, taking with you a costly gift,

Something quite fine, a keepsake from me,

[330] The sort of thing a host gives to his guest.”

And Athena, her eyes grey as saltwater:

“No, I really do want to get on with my journey.

Whatever gift you feel moved to make,

Give it to me on my way back home,

[335] Yes, something quite fine. It will get you as good.”
