The Kings daughter

By Ava, Zach, and Sam

The Kings Daughter

Summary

In "The Kings Daughter" Odysseus is under

olive trees and he hears the princess playing.
(She did this because Athene persuaded her to
wash her clothes and them after they were done
the princess decided to play.) he covers himself
with a branch and asks for clothes so they give
him soap and clothes. Then the princess tells him
that he could ask for help at the palace and gives
him directions. And after asking the princesses
parents say that he has the princesses hand in
marriage and that they can give him a boat.

Chapter title setting

At the beginning of the chapter (on page 64) Odysseus is

sleeping under a covering of olive trees on a river bank up in the
high palace of the King of that country. I know this because the
text says (on page 64) "now while Odysseus slept under his
covering of olive leaves on the river bank , up on the high palace
of the king of that country the princess Nausicaa slept also."

Theme in CER

In The Wanderings Of Odysseus by Rosemary

Sutcliff one of the themes is that life is full of
surprises. We know this because it's says (on
page 73) how Poseidon for an ancient grudge
bore him had wrecked his boat. And the King
said (on page 75) "but if your heart is set
beyond all changing on returning to your own
land, then assuredly a ship shall be ready for
you manned by the best rowers in my kingdom."
This shows that life is full of surprises because
his boat was wrecked and they built him a new
one. Therefore life is full of surprises is one of
the themes in the wanderings of Odysseus.

In the Wanderings Of Odysseus by Rosemary Sutcliff

Odysseus is kind. Even though it's been a long time since
he's seen other mortals he's very polite. On page 67
Odysseus says "oh young mistress are you goddess or
mortal maiden?" This shows that he's kind, also he asked
kindly for a ship. Also on page 66 he puts on a branch in
front of ladies because he's still polite after all these
years it says "and, breaking off a branch of wild olive to
cover his nakedness."Therefore Odysseus is kind.
