The beautiful and wise goddess Calypso saved me and forced
herself to be my lover for seven years. The great messenger Hermes came to tell
Calypso to release me after Athene and Zeus had intervened on my part and she
gave me generous food and wood to make a raft. On the way to Scheria I met Ino
as I was about to drown and she gave me a cloak that would make me stay alive
for the next few days while he was on sea.
I decided to listen to Ino's instructions instead of doubt
her. At first I doubted her, but then
listened, of course I had no other choice. But by doing this I made it to Scheria.
