What are epithets, allusions, and/or epic similes found in book 12 of the Odyssey?
An example of an epic simile in book 12 of The Odyssey is "During his meditation, a heavy surge was taking him, in fact, straight on the rocks. He [would have] been flayed there, and his bones broken, had not grey-eyed Athena instructed him: he gripped a rock-ledge with both hands in passing and held on, groaning as the surge went by, to keep clear of its breaking. Then the backwash hit him, ripping him under and far out. An octopus, when you drag one from his chamber, comes up with suckers full of tiny stones:" Thanks for using ChaCha!
