I am free to own that I cannot dismiss from my mind the suspicion that what the poet means to convey to us in these darkly veiled expressions is the devouring of the wretched children by their parent. (Inferno, xxxiii. 75.)

[888] The translation in Pope’s Odyssey, which in the most material parts has a more highly charged colouring than the Greek original, here reverses the sense. Homer says Neptune did not laugh, οὐδὲ Ποσειδάωνα γέλως ἔχε: Pope says, ‘even Neptune laughs aloud.’ Pope’s work is a great work: but it is not a good rendering, nor a bad rendering, of Homer: it is no rendering at all.
