[L'île de Calypso]


The Mysterious Island

Calypso could not console herself over the departure of Ulysses. However, Ulysses comes back for the last time to the island where she dwells, and during his sleep is discovered by the nymphs of the goddess, who determine that he must be kept with her at any cost. She covers him with flowers and causes the most voluptuous airs of a heavenly music to resound. At his awakening, Ulysses strives to pursue Calypso into the interior of a grotto, but he is stayed by the giant hand of the monster Polyphemus, the hideous cyclop with one eye. The latter crawls into the grotto, and with his head toward the opening, he blocks up the entire entrance. The bold Ulysses seizes his spearhook; he smashes in the eye of the giant who disappears. Ulysses then decides to leave this mysterious island, and resists the solicitations of Calypso who succeeds in taking possession of his cloak only.
