Odyssey
Book 19, Line 406 by Samuel Butler (English)
‘Son-in-law and daughter," replied Autolykos, "call the child thus: I am highly displeased with a large number of people in one place and another, both men and women; so name the child ‘Odysseus,’ or the child of anger. When he grows up and comes to visit his mother's family on Mount Parnassus , where my possessions lie, I will make him a present and will send him on his way rejoicing."
