Verse
Iliad
Book 1, Line 590 by Samuel Butler (English)
Once before when I was trying to help you, he caught me by the foot and flung me from the heavenly threshold. All day long from morn till eve, was I falling, till at sunset I came to ground in the island of Lemnos , and there I lay, with very little life left in me, till the Sintians came and tended me."
