She brought them in and seated them on chairs And settles, and prepared for them a mess Of cheese and barley meal and yellow honey With Pramnian wine, and in the food she mixed Dark drugs, to make them utterly forget Their native land. Now when she gave it them And they had drunk, she rapped them with her rod At once, and fell to penning them in styes: And so they had the heads and voice and bristles And shape of pigs, but even as before Their minds abode unchanged. Thus were they penned There crying, and before them Circe tossed Acorns and mast and cornel fruit for food, Such things as wallowing pigs are wont to eat."
