Which event is described in this excerpt from Book 13 of Homer's Odyssey?

She spake, then touch'd him with her powerful wand:
The skin shrunk up, and wither'd at her hand;
A swift old age o'er all his members spread;
A sudden frost was sprinkled on his head;
Nor longer in the heavy eye-ball shined
The glance divine, forth-beaming from the mind.
His robe, which spots indelible besmear,
In rags dishonest flutters with the air:
A stag's torn hide is lapp'd around his reins;
A rugged staff his trembling hand sustains;
And at his side a wretched scrip was hung,
Wide-patch'd, and knotted to a twisted thong.
So looked the chief, so moved: to mortal eyes
Object uncouth! a man of miseries!


a). Minerva hides Ulysses in a gray mist.

b). Minerva gives Ulysses a divine appearance.

c). Minerva disguises Ulysses as an old beggar.

d). Minerva disguises Ulysses as a shepherd.

C, Minerva disguises him as an old beggar. The idea is that he wants to go unrecognized when he returns home to his people. You can figure that he's an old beggar based on phrases like "a man of miseries" and "uncouth". 

However, if you have trouble reading older texts, websites like Sparknotes and Shmoop are great for getting summaries.
