Telemachus relates to his mother what he had heard at Pylos and Sparta.

So soon as early Dawn shone forth1, the rosy-fingered, then Telemachus, the dear son of divine Odysseus, bound beneath his feet his goodly sandals, and took up his mighty2 spear that fitted his grasp, to make for the city; and he spake to his swineherd, saying:

‘Verily, father, I am bound for the city, that my mother may see me, for methinks that she will not cease from grievous wailing4 and tearful lament5, until she beholds7 my very face. But this command I give thee: Lead this stranger, the hapless one, to the city, that there he may beg his meat, and whoso chooses will give him a morsel8 of bread and a cup of water. As for myself, I can in no wise suffer every guest who comes to me, so afflicted9 am I in spirit. But if the stranger be sore angered hereat, the more grievous will it be for himself; howbeit I for one love to speak the truth.’

And Odysseus of many counsels answered him saying: ‘I too, my friend, have no great liking10 to be left behind here. It is better that a beggar should beg his meat in the town than in the fields, and whoso chooses will give it me. For I am not now of an age to abide12 at the steading, and to obey in all things the word of the master. Nay13 go, and this man that thou biddest will lead me, so soon as I shall be warmed with the fire, and the sun waxes hot. For woefully poor are these garments of mine, and I fear lest the hoar frost of the dawn overcome me; moreover ye say the city is far away.’
