Passage preview

Book 1 · Passage 52

As he spoke, he took a double cup of nectar, and placed it in his mother’s hand. ‘Cheer up, my dear mother,’ said he, ‘and make the best of it. I love you dearly, and should be very sorry to see you get a thrashing; however grieved I might be, I could not help, for there is no standing against Jove. Once before when I was trying to help you, he caught me by the foot and flung me from the heavenly threshold. All day long from morn till eve, was I falling, till at sunset I came to ground in the island of Lemnos, and there I lay, with very little life left in me, till the Sintians came and tended me.’
