Answer: Come, my friends, 'Tis not too late to seek a newer world.
Push off, and sitting well in order smite The sounding furrows;
for my purpose To sail beyond the sunset, and the baths Of all the western stars, until I die.
One equal temper of heroic hearts, Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
Explanation:
In the first line the author exhorts his friends to search a new world.
Ulysses exhorts his sailors to set sail; the phrase "smite / the sounding furrows" compares the act of rowing to beating or striking something; beating something that makes a sound is here a metaphor for rowing. ... "Beyond the sunset" is a metaphor.
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield. Ulysses yet again tells us that even though he and his sailors are not young and don't have a lot of stamina, there's enough left to go for a while. "Abides" is a word that means "remains."
