Answer:

Eumaeus

Explanation:

In The Odyssey, Eumaeus is Odysseus's friend and swineherd. He is the first person that Odysseus meets when he returns from Ithaca after the Trojan War. Eumaeus is extremely generous and hospitable, and he feeds Odysseus even though he does not know who he is (Odysseus is disguised as a pauper). This supports the passage, as in this text, Eumaeus tells Odysseus that it is a person's duty to help anyone who might come his way.
