In the poem "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud" by William Wordsworth, the author compares the daffodils that he is seeing to stars. He tells us that the daffodils looked like stars on the milky way. Moreover, he personifies them by saying that they were "tossing their heads." The mood that is created in the text is one of happiness and relaxation.

<em>Continuous as the stars that shine</em>

<em>And twinkle on the milky way,</em>

<em>They stretched in never-ending line</em>

<em>Along the margin of a bay:</em>

<em>Ten thousand saw I at a glance,</em>

<em>Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.</em>

Question about the Odyssey “nobody” in greek is outis, which sounds like odysseus. in his conflict with the cyclops, how does od
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Odysseus made it sound as if "nobody" stabbed Polyphemus in the eye, so the other cyclops let him go.  The curse that is revealed a the end of his encounter with the Cyclops foreshadows Odysseus's difficult journey.  

Explanation:

The clever word play:

Odysseus tries to outsmart and taunt the Cyclops at every turn, first by getting him drunk on wine and then by telling the Cyclops that his name is Outis, which means nobody. This is so that when the Cyclops is telling the other giants who injured him, it sounds like Polyphemus is shouting "Nobody" stabbed him in the eye. This confuses the other Cyclops who may have otherwise tried to help Polyphemus catch Odysseus.

The Curse:

Odysseus and his men sail away from the island by tricking the now blinded Cyclops that they were part of the herd of sheep that Polyphemus was tending. The curse comes when Odysseus decides to try to taunt the monster further and shouts out his real name.  What this does is reveal his identity and allows the Cyclops to curse Odysseus in revenge. Polyphemus prays to his father, the great Poseidon, asking that Odysseus's journey back home to Ithaca be fraught with the loss of his friends and his ship.
