A MODERN POLITICIAN, EXEMPLIFIED, in the Punishment of
Sisyphus, as related by Homer, mortalized by Lucretious.
  There saw I Sisyphus, in endless pain,
  Who toils for ever and yet toils in vain:
  With many a weary step, and many a groan,
  Up an high hill he heaves an heavy stone;
. . . [6 more lines, 12 lines from Homer's Odyssee]
