Read the excerpt from The Odyssey.

though I have been detained long by Calypso,
loveliest among goddesses, who held me
in her smooth caves, to be her heart's delight,

his own home and his parents? In far lands
he shall not, though he find a house of gold.

O confidence and courage
O leadership and perseverance
O character and loyalty
