Read this passage from the odyssey,
and i with my fighting heart, i thought at first
to steal up to him, draw the sharp sword at my hip
and stab his chest where the midriff packs the liver -
i groped for the fatal spot but a fresh thought held me
back
there at a stroke we'd finish off ourselves as well -
how could we with our bare hands heave back
that slab he set to block his cavern's gaping maw?
what explicit detail is the reader given about odysseus in this passage?
