Odysseeeee
Storyboard Text
- Odysseus and his men get stuck in a cyclops cave, "...to let his sheep go through but he, behind,reset the stone as one would cap a quiver."
- My name is Nohbdy
- "Nohbdy s my meat, then, after I eat his friends.Others come first. There s a noble gift, now. "
- "rammed itdeep in his crater eye, and I leaned on itturning it as a shipwright turns a drillin planking, having men below to swingthe two-handled strap that spins it in the groove"
- Ah well, if nobody has played you foulthere in your lonely bed, we are no use in pain given by great Zeus. Let it be your father, Poseidon Lord, to whom you pray.
- Polyphemus? Why do you cry so sorein the starry night? You will not let us sleep.Sure no man’s driving off your flock? No manhas tricked you, ruined you?
- Nohbdy, Nohbdy’s tricked me, Nohbdy’s ruined me!
- So three sheep could convey each man. I tookthe woolliest ram, the choicest of the flock,and hung myself under his kinky belly,pulled up tight.
- Polyphemus throws a mountain top and pushes the boat back to shore but Odysseus gets away in the end
- At this he stretched his hands out in his darkness toward the sky of stars, and prayed Poseidon: O hear me, lord, blue girdler of the islands, if I am thine indeed, and thou art father: grant that Odysseus, raider of cities, never see his home: Laertes son, I mean, who kept his hall on Ithaca. Should destiny intend that he shall see his roof again among his family in his father land, far be that day, and dark the years between. Let him lose all companions, and return under strange sail to bitter days at home. In these words he prayed, and the god heard him.
