The Odyssey 21.200–202
“Father Zeus, oh that thou wouldest fulfil this wish! Grant that that man may come back, and that some god may guide him. Then shouldest thou know what manner of might is mine, and how my hands obey.”
And even in like manner did Eumaeus pray to all the gods that wise Odysseus; might come back to his own home.
Ζεῦ πάτερ, αἲ γὰρ τοῦτο τελευτήσειας ἐέλδωρ,
ὡς ἔλθοι μὲν κεῖνος ἀνήρ, ἀγάγοι δέ ἑ δαίμων·
γνοίης χʼ οἵη ἐμὴ δύναμις καὶ χεῖρες ἕπονται.
