Odysseus' adventure never ends well with his men because it didn't seem like, after all they had suffered, it hadn't occurred to him that maybe Circe he was luring men into a trap. The verdict on how the men of his crew judge good and evil in this poem seems that if the person sings beautifully or offers good food and drink, then he is good. Poor Odysseus, most of his men were fools, perhaps even him. It is strange that even the second time, when one of his men came running down in tears, it is so natural to once again enter Circe's lair and stranger that Odysseus sensed a trap but did not warm any of his crew. Another god appears again to help Odysseus, Hermes. After following Hermes' guidance and consuming his magic and Circe's magical drink, he must wait: "The moment Circe strikes with her long, thin wand, you draw your sharp sword sheathed at your side and thrust it quickly as if to pierce it." .” Then she would have to beg him and make an oath that he would then take her to bed, at what point didn't that seem a little hard to believe? After a year of pleading with his men, Odysseus finally speaks to Circe asking him to return home when he is in bed with her, although once again Odysseus is next to a beautiful woman in bed and asks about home and his wife.
