After being blown off course, Odysseus and his men land on the island of the Lotus-Eaters. The island's inhabitants offer them the lotus plant, which makes those who eat it forget their home and want to stay forever. Odysseus has to drag his affected men back to the ship to prevent them from staying behind.
Untie me! Let me go to them!

As Odysseus and his men sail past the Sirens, whose enchanting song lures sailors to their doom, Odysseus orders his men to plug their ears with beeswax. However, he has them tie him to the mast so he can hear the song without steering the ship into danger. He struggles against the ropes, desperate to go to the Sirens, but his crew ignores his pleas.
