Cried
i think you mean the verticies in the word mantle
It's just a fanciful way of saying you cried a lot, as though you cried so much your eyes were washed right out of your head.
Penelope gave Odysseus a glistening shirt, a purple wool, double-lined mantle, and a gold brooch to fasten the mantle. The gold brooch had two catches for the pin, and a dog strangling a struggling spotted fawn between its forepaws on the face of it. The shirt was soft and fitted Odysseus 'like the skin of an onion', while it glistened in sunlight.
she cried and cried and cried and cried and cried and cried and cried and cried and cried and cried and cried and cried and cried and cried and cried and cried and cried and etc. etc. etc.
What does mantle mean
False. Penelope does not immediately recognize Odysseus when he returns home in the epic "The Odyssey." She tests him to see if he is truly her husband by setting up the challenge of stringing his bow and shooting an arrow through a line of axes.
Odysseus cried when the blind man sang a song because the lyrics recounted the events of the Trojan War, reminding Odysseus of his long and arduous journey home. The song stirred deep emotions in Odysseus, evoking memories of the comrades he lost and the challenges he faced during his travels.
Depends what he was crying about.
Odysseus. His name is related to odune, grief. He spends an awful lot of the Odyssey weeping for Penelope. One of the central themes of the Odyssey is that emotions or human functions like sleeping, eating, etc, are things that are to be avoided in excess. We see Odysseus run into trouble every time something like that happens (his men eat the sacred cattle, he falls asleep and they let the Winds out of the bag, etc). It seems kind of odd, but it's a prevalent theme in Ancient Greek religion: meden agon, "nothing in excess". I'm pretty sure whoever the questioner is asking about is NOT Odysseus. Odysseus did cry for his wife, Penelope, but it he did not cry enough for her for it to be considered "too much". In fact, Penelope cried more for Odysseus than Odysseus did for her.
