And when she was gone, Achilles left his companions and sat upon the sea-shore, weeping aloud and stretching out his hands to his mother Thetis, the daughter of the sea.

She heard his voice where she sat in the depths by the side of her father, and rose from the sea as a cloud rises.

and came to him where he sat weeping, shaking him with her hand and calling him by his name.

Why do you weep, my son?

she said.

And he told her what had been done.

THE ILLIAD FOR BOYS AND GIRLS by Alfred J. Church What Thetis Did for Her Son When the twelve days of feasting were over, Thetis rose out of the sea and went away to Olympus.

There she found Zeus, sitting alone on the highest peak of the mountain.
