  2. up from his bed arose the dear son of Odysseus

  3. and put on his clothing. About his shoulder he slung his sharp sword,
    εἵματα ἑσσάμενος, περὶ δὲ ξίφος ὀξὺ θέτ' ὤμῳ,
  4. and beneath his shining feet bound his fair sandals,
    ποσσὶ δ' ὑπὸ λιπαροῖσιν ἐδήσατο καλὰ πέδιλα,
  5. and went forth from his chamber like a god to look upon.
