When Athena departs from Telemachus and Nestor how does she reveal that she is a Goddess?

In the early sections of the Odyssey, Athena appears to Telemachus in disguise as Mentor. As Mentor, she gives Telemachus the confidence to speak to Nestor about his father, Odysseus. Nestor relates what he knows (which is little), but bids Telemachus seek his father with the same zeal Orestes took in avenging Agamemnon’s death. Nestor sends Telemachus to Sparta to seek information about his father, and the wise old king sends his son, Pisistratus, as a companion. Athena departs following these events.

When Athena departs from Telemachus and Nestor, she reveals herself to be a goddess by putting off her disguise and flying away in the likeness of a vulture (or eagle, depending on your translation). As the Richard Lattimore translation relates in Book 3, lines 371-377 (the spellings in his translation differ from some spellings in other translations):

So speaking, gray-eyed Athene went away in the likeness 
of a vulture, amazement seized on all the Achaians,
 and the old man was amazed at what his eyes saw. He took
Telemachos by the hand and spoke a word to him and named him:
‘Dear friend, I have no thought that you will turn out mean and cowardly
if, when you are so young, the gods go with you and guide you
thus.

Answer:

An example

A hypothetical situation

A fact

Explanation:

  • Hypothetical situation: This is a situation that is depicted based on imagination.

The author gave a hypothetical situation of Alice encrypting a message to bob using Bob's public key and Bob decrypting the message on his own end using his own private key.

  • Example

The author cited an example that Alice cannot afford to encrypt a hundred messages one by one due to the long time it takes. This is to back up the point earlier stated that encrption and decyption take time for long. messages.

  • Fact: This a point that is generally true

The point that encryption and decryption can take several minutes on a personal computer if the message is long is a fact
