Book 22 - The battle in the hall

• His life blood gushed from


  His nostrils in a turbid jet [Antinous]
• Dawned upon the fools that 


  the fate of all of them was sealed
• Spattered with blood

  and gore like a lion
• I will not give a

  decent death to women (Telemachus)
• For a little while their feet


  twitched but not for very long [female slaves]
• Ripped away his genitals


  as raw meat for the dogs [Melanthius]
