QUOTE : In this night too, in this night of his mortal eyes into which he was now descending, love and danger were again waiting...<br />a murmur of glory and hexameters, of men defending a temple the gods will not save, and of black vessels searching the sea for a beloved isle;<br />the murmor of the <i>Odyssey</i>s and <i>Iliad</i>s it was his destiny to sing and leave echoing concavely in the memory of man.<br />These things we know, but not those he felt descending into the last shade of all.
