The Slaughter

"Laughing rowdily, men prepared their noonday meal, succulent, rich-they'd butchered quite a herd. But as for supper, what could be less enticing than what a goddess and a powerful man would spread before them soon? A groaning feast-for they'd been first to plot their vicious crimes."

-The Odyssey (Book 20; Line 434)
