Helen urges Telemachus to go home and get married because of the omen. She sends a gift for his bride.
"I too, my son," said she, "have something for you as a keepsake from the hand of Helen; it is for your bride to wear upon her wedding day. Till then, get your dear mother to keep it for you; thus may you go back rejoicing to your own country and to your home."
