Your heads and eyes are like, I mark,
For we were well to one another known;
But ’twas before he did for Troy embark
With other princes of the Argive youth;
But never saw him since.+

Wondrously like his are thy head and beautiful eyes;
for full often did we consort with one another
[210] before he embarked for the land of Troy, whither others, too,
the bravest of the Argives, went in their hollow ships.
But since that day neither have I seen Odysseus, nor he me.”
