Hermes warns Odysseus before his encounter with the enchantress Circe, and gives Odysseus a magical herb to protect him from Circes' spells, as well as exact advice as to what to do. Circe tries to turn Odysseus into a pig but fails. Odysseus rushes Circe with his sword, but she acquiesces, and tries to bed Odysseus. Odysseus commands her to swear an oath to do him no further harm, and after she has, he beds her. Afterwards he refuses to eat, and explains he cannot until he sees his men.
