One of the first differences is simply the way that each witch detains Odysseus. When Odysseus meets Circe, he subdues her with a plan given to him by Hermes, Zeus' personal messenger: "'As soon as Circe gives you a tap with her long rod, draw your sword...she will be terrified, and will invite you to come in with her. Do not refuse'" (Rouse 118). His plan works; Circe says, "'Come now, put your sword in the sheath'"(Rouse 11).
