Yes, a man hostile to me in the past, and especially now.AthenaAnd is not the sweetest mockery the mockery of enemies?OdysseusI am content that he stay within his tent.AthenaDo you fear to see a madman right before your eyes?OdysseusI would not shrink from him in fear, if he were sane.AthenaBut he will not see you now, even though you stand nearby.OdysseusHow could that be, if he still sees with the same eyes?AthenaI shall darken them, though their sight is keen.
