And Odysseus knew that the spear had in no way lighted on a fatal spot, and he drew back and spoke to Socus, saying:
γνῶ δ' Ὀδυσεὺς ὅ οἱ οὔ τι τέλος κατακαίριον ἦλθεν , ἂψ δ' ἀναχωρήσας Σῶκον πρὸς μῦθον ἔειπεν ·
γιγνώσκω δέ Ὀδυσσεύς ὅτι ἕ οὐ τις τέλος κατακαίριος ἔρχομαι , ἄψ δέ ἀναχωρέω Σῶκος πρός μῦθος εἶπον ·
