then thus the son: "from alybas i came,
my palace there; eperitus my name
not vulgar born: from aphidas, the king
of polyphemon's royal line, i spring.
some adverse demon from sicania bore
our wandering course, and drove us on your shore;
far from the town, an unfrequented bay
relieved our wearied vessel from the sea.
five years have circled since these eyes pursued
ulysses parting through the sable flood:
prosperous he sail'd, with dexter auguries,
and all the wing'd good omens of the skies.
well hoped we then to meet on this fair shore,
whom heaven, alas! decreed to meet no more."
