What Greek value is being illustrated in this excerpt?

"Here is your part: at break of day tomorrow home with you, go mingle with our princes.
The swineherd later on will take me down
the port-side trail – a beggar, by my looks, hangdog and old. If they make fun of me
in my own courtyard, let your ribs cage up
your springing heart, no matter what I suffer,
no matter if they pull me by the heels
or practice shots at me, to drive me out.
Look on, hold down your anger."

–The Odyssey,

Answer:

self-control

Explanation:

In these lines, the Greek value that is being illustrated is self-control. We learn that Odysseus is going to dress as a beggar and go to his house to meet the suitors. They will most likely mistreat him and make fun of him. However, we are reminded of the value of exercising self-control and not act in impulse. This is expressed in the lines "let your ribs cage up" and "look on, hold down your anger."
