Tell me, Muse, of the man of many ways,
The Man, O Muse, informe that many a way
The man for wisdom’s various arts renown’d,
Muse, tell me of the man of many wiles,
Sing in me, Muse, [...] of that man skilled in all ways of contending,
Tell me, Muse, about the man of many turns,
Sing to me of the man, Muse, the man of twists and turns
Tell me, O muse, of that ingenious hero
Tell me, Muse, the story of that very resourceful man
Muse, tell me of a man: a man of much resource
These are ten English translations of the opening line of the Odyssey. There are many more.
