Question

Which stanza from Homer's Odyssey shows that Telemachus is not yet ready to take the place of his father, Ulysses? "I too may try, and if this arm can wing The feather’d arrow through the destined ring, Then if no happier night the conquest boast, I shall not sorrow for a mother lost; But, bless’d in her, possess those arms alone, Heir of my father’s strength, as well as throne." He spoke; then rising, his broad sword unbound, And cast his purple garment on the ground. A trench he open'd: in a line he placed. The level axes, and the points made fast (His perfect skill the wondering gazers eyed, The game as yet unseen, as yet untried). Then, with a manly pace, he took his stand: And grasp'd the bow, and twang'd it in his hand. Three times, with beating heart, he made essay: Three times, unequal to the task, gave way; A modest boldness on his cheek appear'd: And thrice he hoped, and thrice again he fear'd. The fourth had drawn it.
