Amphimedon,

What ruin brought you into this undergloom?

All in a body, picked men, and so young?

One could not better choose the kingdom's pride.

Were you at sea, aboard ship, and Poseidon

blew up a dire wind and foundering waves,

or cattle-raiding, were you, on the mainland,

or in a fight for some stronghold, or women,

when the foe hit you to your mortal hurt?

Tell me, answer my question. Guest and friend

I say I am of yours-or do you not remember

I visited your family there?"
