Telemachus sends Eumaeus to the city to tell his mother of his return. And how, in the meantime, Odysseus discovers himself to his son.
Now these twain, Odysseus and the goodly swineherd, within the hut had kindled1 a fire, and were making ready breakfast at the dawn, and had sent forth2 the herdsmen with the droves of swine. And round Telemachus the hounds, that love to bark, fawned3 and barked not, as he drew nigh. And goodly Odysseus took note of the fawning5 of the dogs, and the noise of footsteps fell upon his ears. Then straight he spake to Eumaeus winged words:
‘Eumaeus, verily some friend or some other of thy familiars will soon be here, for the dogs do not bark but fawn4 around, and I catch the sound of footsteps.’
While the word was yet on his lips, his own dear son stood at the entering in of the gate. Then the swineherd sprang up in amazement6, and out of his hands fell the vessels7 wherewith he was busied in mingling8 the dark wine. And he came over against his master and kissed his head and both his beautiful eyes and both his hands, and he let a great tear fall. And even as a loving father welcomes his son that has come in the tenth year from a far country, his only son and well-beloved, for whose sake he has had great sorrow and travail9, even so did the goodly swineherd fall upon the neck of godlike Telemachus, and kiss him all over as one escaped from death, and he wept aloud and spake to him winged words:
‘Thou art come, Telemachus, a sweet light in the dark; methought I should see thee never again, after thou hadst gone in thy ship to Pylos. Nay
