Dispatch from Athena to my Servant at Ithaca

Penelope, faithful wife of Odysseus,
Stand your guard against those who seek to harm you!
Sleep with one eye open.
Build up your defenses during the day.
If furniture must be dragged to your door,
to keep out the men and other women who wish to see you fall,
then find a way to make it happen.
Do not be downhearted!
Odysseus has vowed to return to you.
He is on his way.
Remain confident.
Fill your heart with hope.
In good faith,
Athena
