"Then Said the Lady Circe: 'so, all those trials over. Listen with care to this, now, and god will arm your mind.' "
How does Odysseus survive the dangers posed by Scylla, the Sirens, and Charybdis?
Without the help of Lady Circe, it would be hard for any mortal to cross through the dangerous waters consumed by Scylla, The Sirens, and Charybdis. At the beginning at page 46 ( Book 12) We hear about all the dangers that the crew is going to have to go through. We are also told that Odysseus doesn't tell his men about certain journey's that they will have to trudge to, but once the times comes, he does. When it comes to the Sirens, Odyssey is tied to the mast of the ship, because he wishes to hear the sound of the Sirens, and the rest of the men are ordered to put beeswax into their ears, for the music of the sirens is sweet yet deadly.
