The host to expiate next the king
prepares,
With pure lustrations, and with
solemn prayers.
Wash'd by the briny wave, the pious
train59
Are cleansed; and cast the ablutions
in the main.
Along the shore whole hecatombs were
laid,
And bulls and goats to Phoebus'
altars paid;
The sable fumes in curling spires
arise,
And
waft their grateful odours to the skies.
Off
Ulysses sails down the watery road, the water
here is seen as cleansing; with prayer and glam the prayers in unison with the waters
washes the pious train of ships returning to sacred shores, here all seem
sacred. Clean of dirt and disease Solemn
is the king’s heart as love and prize sacredly return to the shores treated
with the same piety and sacredness as his own lands. Chyses lands had become like his, even
though they will not be married. There is
a sacred procession of ascendance, more like a level passing to the next. The motion is seen as clean, safe and
blessed, this act equally is made to look the same. She is a hecatombs , which is a sacred
sacrifice to honour Godz and people.
Here sacred sacrifices light the way along the shores of the pious and
sacred watery path. Bulls and goats . cattle, were being sacrificed as part of the
procession of returning Chryses to sacred shores, was she sacred to begin with,
she is seen piously important by this point , so important that Ulysses brings
her home and incents and spice scents are used by sacred alters to truly
appease the gods with this gift of a prize returned It is a road to heaven ,well at least to be
seen so as a redemption and appeasement of the gods at the most sacred level,
thus the prayers are hoped as the sights for Gods , friends and enemies, that Chryses
is returned and the blessing of healing from the plagues that are running rapid
through the Greeks. All must be sacred to
achieve the highest sacred and blessed result.
Agamemnon
means general and is in charge if the armies
Ulysses
might be naval commander, could these names be titles?
