Iliad
Book 24, Line 372 by Samuel Butler (English)
And Priam answered, "It is indeed as you say, my dear son; nevertheless some god has held his hand over me, in that he has sent such a wayfarer as yourself to meet me so Opportunely; you are so comely in mien and figure, and your judgment [ noos ] is so excellent that you must come of blessed parents."
