In <em>The Odyssey</em>, Odysseus spends seven years with the goddess Calypso in her island as her lover. Calypso is in love with Odysseus, and wants him to remain with her forever. However, Odysseus continues to love his wife Penelope, and wants to get back with her. In this excerpt, Odysseus assures Calypso that, although he wants to leave, this is not because of any shortcomings on her part.
