<Ancient History>: (4) Ulysses' introduction to Nausicaa. At the sight of the hero soiled with black mud, / All flee, but Nausicaa, in her naïve modesty; / Blushingly says to him, without quitting her laundry: / Which God, noble stranger, leads you to my wash-house? (Unpublished translation by Mr. Casimir Delavigne)
