Read the excerpt from The Odyssey.
Now from his breast into his eyes the ache of longing mounted, and he wept at last, his dear wife, clear and faithful, in his arms, longed for as the sunwarmed earth is longed for by a swimmer spent in rough water where his ship went down under Poseidon's blows, gale winds and tons of sea. Few men can keep alive through a big surf to crawl, clotted with brine, on kindly beaches in joy, in joy, knowing the abyss behind.
How does this excerpt from the end of the story show that Odysseus has changed in the course of his adventure?

Explanation:

Homer's The Odyssey tells the journey of Odysseus and his men after the Trojan War. The journey led him through many encounters with gods and monsters along the way, thus taking him a long time to be finally home in Ithaca.

The given excerpt is from Book XXIII of the text after he had reached Ithaca and had been reunited with his wife and son. The given passage especially reveals how he had changed along the course of the story. Now, Odysseus values home and family more than anything and did not seem to prize it less than personal glory. He no longer has his previous desires of traveling and seeking adventures, preferring the warmth of his home and family more than any of the joys that adventures can give.
