Read the excerpt from Part 2 of The Odyssey.

‘Why not

take these cheeses, get them stowed, come back,
throw open all the pens, and make a run for it?
We'll drive the kids and lambs aboard. We say
put out again on good salt water!'

Ah,

to see the caveman, what he had to offer—
no pretty sight, it turned out, for my friends.
