These two in the shelter, Odysseus and the noble
swineherd, stirred the fire at dawn, and arranged their breakfast, and sent
the herdsmen out with the pasturing pigs. At this time the clamorous dogs

and great Odysseus noticed
that the dogs were fawning; above them he heard the loud noise of
footsteps.
