Hello! If you are wondering, I did not copy. Another person asked the same question, so I answered his, and yours!

Read the excerpt from Part 2 of The Odyssey by Homer.
We would entreat you, great Sir, have a care
for the gods' courtesy; Zeus will avenge
the unoffending guest.'

telling me, mind the gods! We Cyclopes
care not a whistle for your thundering Zeus
or all the gods in bliss; we have more force by far.
