To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Ulysses goes into the cave of the Cyclop with some of his companions. The Cyclop was a one-eyed shepherd, and his cave is described as a dairy ; his flocks were goats and sheep, which he milked when he came home : — " Scarce twenty-four wheeled cars compact and strong.
The massy load could bear or roll along. '' He was a giant, therefore, living under ground ; and he ate two of the strangers raw. He spoke Greek, but claimed to be of a race superior to the Greek gods. He ate two more Greeks for ...breakfast, and two for supper. Then got drunk on wine given him by Ulysses, which was better than his own. Ulysses said, ** No man is my name ; " and the giant promised to eat him last, as a return for his gift of rosy wine, and went to sleep.
Then they heated a stake in the fire, and drilled his eye out.
The Cyclops assembled at his "well-known roar," asked what was the matter, and were told — *' Friends, no man kiUs me, no man in the hour Of sleep oppresses me with fraudful power.
If no man hurt thee, but the hand divine Inflicts disease, it fits thee to resign.
