While Odysseus and some of his men are driving a stake through the Cyclops's eye, the text states, "The pike of olive, green though it had been, reddened and glowed as if about to catch. I drew it from the coals and my four fellows gave me a hand, lugging it near the Cyclops as more than natural force nerved them; straight forward they sprinted, lifted it, and rammed it deep in his crater eye, and I leaned on it turning it as a shipwright turns a drill in planking, having men below to swing the two-handled strap that spins it in the groove." (lines 231 - 240)
While Odysseus and his men are escaping, the text states, " 'O Cyclops! Would you feast on my companions? Puny, am I, in a Caveman's hands? How do you like the beating that we gave you, you damned cannibal? Eater of guests under your roof! Zeus and the gods have paid you!' " (Line 335 - 339)
I will make you pay for this!
You have been beaten by tiny humans. How dare you eat your guests? Zeus will make you pay!
As Odysseus tries to escape, the text states, "Three abreast I tied them silently together, twining cords of willow from the ogre's bed; then slung a man under each middle one to ride there safely, shielded left and right. So three sheep could convey each man." (lines 281 - 286)
Where are you! Show yourself!
Owww! My eye!
I need to stay hidden and escape now. I can't let him see me.
