Homer Quotes About Heaven

• Zeus most glorious and most great, Thundercloud, throned in the heavens!

May many of his men fall about him prone in the dust and bite the earth!

You took my house to plunder,/ twisted my maids to serve your beds. You dared/ bid for my wife while I was still alive./ Contempt was all you had for the gods who rule wide heaven,/ contempt for what men say of you hereafter./ Your last hour has come. You die in blood.
