The Odyssey
Translated by Barry B. Powell
Oxford 2014

[Sample from the Opening Lines]

Sing to me of the resourceful man, O Muse, who wandered
far after he had sacked the sacred city of Troy. He saw
the cities of many men and he learned their minds.
He suffered many pains on the sea in his spirit, seeking
to save his life and the homecoming of his companions.
