Plot, picture and thoughts

Picture

Rather disappointingly the picture has nothing to do with this lesson, but with the second B-part. So forget about the picture for the moment. You'll get 2 pictures with 7b, none with 7a.

Plot

See this link for mythological monsters and Cyclopes in particular.

This first part of their adventure with the Cyclops just tells us why they got themselves in that particular predicament. Sound of delicious meat still on the bone gets them to the island, and the curiosity that killed the cat drives Odysseus into the lion's den and keeps him there, and his poor, rather unwilling companions too. How will it all end?
