But
Ulysses found a club lying there, and with the help of four comrades he sharpened it, and,
having heated it in the fire, he blinded him. And when Polyphemus cried to the Cyclopes
round about for help, they came and asked who was hurting him, and when he said,
“ Nobody,” they thought he meant that he was being hurt by nobody, and
so they retired.
