This book contains one of the most famous literary works in history, "The Odyssey" rendered into beautiful English prose. There can be, however, it appears, no final English translation of Homer. In each there must be, in addition to what is Greek and eternal, the element of what is modern, personal, and fleeting. A prose translation cannot give the movement and the fire of a successful translation in verse; it only gathers, as it were, the crumbs which fall from the richer table, only tells the story, without the song. Yet to a prose translation is permitted, perhaps, that close adherence to the archaisms of the epic, which in verse become mere oddities.

Excerpt from The Odyssey of Homer: Done Into English Verse To get him back to his homestead, sore yearning for his wife, Did the noble nymph Calypso, the Godhead's glory, hoard In the hollow rocky places 3 for she longed for him for lord, Yea and e'en when the circling seasons had brought the year to hand, Wherein the Gods had doomed it that he should reach his land, 20 E'en Ithaca his homestead, not even then was he, Though amidst his kin and his people, of heavy trouble free. Know now, that of all the God-folk there was none but pitied him. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
