Odysseus and Polyphemus

              After the Trojan war, Aeneas with sword of Troy and his people escaped from the peril. Then they sailed on the land of the Cyclopes, to ask for some helps.
              When they arrived, they first have break on the pasture. They climb up to tops of hills where Cyclopes usually live in, to meet them.
              Polyphemus, a name of a cyclope, has eyed on the Aeneas and his people and called them strangers killing them without mercy, squeezing the head eating organs. blocking the rest not to come out 'till he got hungry again.
              By the chance, one of a comrades of on the ship, Noman tries to bribe Polyphemus the wine. Tho' it worked successfully, no mercy found from Polyphemus that he would be eating Noman at the last of the comrade.
              Noman spear the Polyphemus' only eye to blind him with the burning sharp olive stake. So Polypehemus was no longer a cyclope with an eye.
              By that, Noman and all his comrades were able to flee with the foods.
