By invoking the muse at the beginning of the epic, the poet is indicating that the story he is about to tell is of great importance and worthy of divine inspiration. The allusion to the muse also suggests that the poet is humble and recognizes the role of external sources of inspiration in his work, rather than taking credit solely for himself. This shows that the poet values tradition and seeks to honor the muses in creating his epic.
