Read this passage from the odyssey,
and i with my fighting heart, i thought at first
to steal up to him, draw the sharp sword at my hip
and stab his chest where the midriff packs the liver -

that slab he set to block his cavern's gaping maw?
what explicit detail is the reader given about odysseus in this passage?
