This is no deception sent by Queen Persephone, this is just the way of mortals when we die. Sinews no longer bind the flesh and

bones together – . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . the spirit rustling, flitters away . . . flown like a dream. Who says the above quote and why? Anticleia is explaining why Odysseus cannot embrace her. Agamemnon is explaining that he is real. Elpenor is asking Odysseus to give him a proper burial. Tiresias is explaining why he needs blood to tell the truth.

Answer:

Anticleia is explaining why Odysseus cannot embrace her.

Explanation:

When Odysseus went to the land of the dead in Book XI of "The Odyssey", he also met his mother Anticleia's soul. He wasn't aware of her presence until he finished his meeting with the seer. Once he sees her, they tried to embrace thrice but failed because she was no longer blood and bones. The provided passage is that of Anticleia explaining why Odysseus cannot embrace her, saying that "<em>This is no deception sent by Queen Persephone, this is just the way of mortals when we die. Sinews no longer bind the flesh and bones together – . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . the spirit rustling, flitters away . . . flown like a dream</em>".
