Answer: The meaning of the word 'rove' as used in this passage is wander.

Explanation: The word 'rove' has been used as a verb in this passage and its meaning is to travel long distances without knowing which is the destination. In that way, the meaning of the word 'rove' is closely related to the act of wandering. In this passage from The Odyssey, Athena disapproves Telemachus' idea of roving so far and tries to convince him to come back to his home in order to protect it from Penelope's suitors.
