be mine the rights and honours of a power divine?

by soft phaeacians, my degenerate race!
against yon destined head in vain i swore,
and menaced vengeance, ere he reach'd his shore;
to reach him natal shore was the decree;
mild i obey'd, for who shall war with thee?
behold him landed, careless and asleep, from all the eluded dangers of the deep;
lo where he lies, amidst a shining store
of brass, rich garments, and refulgent ore;
and bears triumphant to his native isle
a prize more worth than ilion's noble spoil.
