ILIAD NOUN

ild.18	It would have gone hardly with me had not Eurynome, daughter of the ever encircling waters of Oceanus, and Thetis, taken me to their bosom.
ild.18	Nine years did I stay with them, and many beautiful works in Bronze, brooches, spiral armlets, cups, and chains, did I make for them in their cave, with the roaring waters of Oceanus foaming as they rushed ever past it; and no one knew, neither of Gods nor men, save only Thetis and Eurynome who took care of me.

Arise Greece! from thy silent sleep, 2000 years long it is! Forget not, thy ancient culture, beautiful and marvelous it is!
