'Sailinig back from Tyrsinia and Iberia they reached Ithaca, and it happened that Melisigenis (Homer) developed a serious eye disease that nedeed to be cured. Mentes had to sail to Leucas, so he left Homer at his good friend Mentor son of Alkimos, an Ithacan, entreating him to cure him and he take him back after his return. Mentor cured him thoroughly, for he was very well off; his justice and hospitality were renown in Ithaca. It was here that the story of Odysseus was told to him and he was convinced.' From Lives of Homer. Pseudo-Herodotus.
