Read the excerpt from the odyssey.

now zeus the lord of cloud roused in the north
a storm against the ships, and driving veils
of squall moved down like night on land and sea.
the bows went plunging at the gust; sails
cracked and lashed out strips in the big wind.
we saw death in that fury, dropped the yards,
unshipped the oars, and pulled for the nearest lee:
then two long days and nights we lay offshore
worn out and sick at heart, tasting our grief,
until a third dawn came with ringlets shining.
then we put up our masts, hauled sail, and rested,
letting the steersmen and the breeze take over.
