For I tell thee that thy lady mother bare thee not of such might as to draw a bow and shoot arrows : but there be others of the proud wooers that shall draw it soon.' 350 ODYSSEY XXI, 175-202.
So he spake, and commanded Melanthius, the goatherd, saying : ' Up now, light a fire in the halls, Melanthius ; and place a great settle by the fire and a fleece thereon, and bring forth a great ball of lard that is within, that we young men may warm and anoint the bow therewith and prove it, and make an ...end of the contest.' So he spake, and Melanthius soon kindled the never-rest- ing fire, and drew up a settle and placed it near, and put a fleece thereon, and he brought forth a great ball of lard that was within. Therewith the young men warmed the bow, and made essay, but could not string it, for they were greatly lacking of such might. And Antinous still held to the task and godlike Eurymachus, chief men among the wooers, who were far the most excellent of all.
But those other twain went forth both together from the house, the neatherd and the swineherd of godlike Odysseus; and Odysseus passed out after them.
