Epithet- "greathearted Odysseus"
Epic Simile- "longed for as the sunwarmed earth is longed for by a swimmer"
Odysseus as an epic hero- Odysseus proves himself as an epic hero in this episode by remembering how he made that bed on the oak tree with Penelope. "There is our pact and pledge, our secret sign, built into that bed-my handiwork and no one elses."
Resolution- "you make my stiff heart know that it is yours."
Symbolism- "An old trunk of olive grew like a pillar on the building plot" The tree represents Penelope and Odysseus's love that is strong and can not be harmed by man.
Theme- True love always finds its way -"his dear wife, clear and faithful, in his arms"
Conflict- "Woman, by heaven, you've stung me now! Who dared to move my bead?"
Penelope's Test
