Question

Which lines in this excerpt from Homer’s Odyssey depict the theme of overindulgence?

Answer 1

The excerpt that is explaining the theme of Overindulgence in the story of Homer’s Odyssey is:

“not so the rest,

Who stay'd to revel, and prolong the feast:

The fatted sheep and sable bulls they slay,

And bowls flow round, and riot wastes the day.”

Some might confuse the theme with the morning flamed star statement this is more to the point.
