THE RETURN OF ULYSSES. / AT THE DOOR TO THE PALACE HIS FAITHFUL POODLES / THE ONLY TO RECOGNIZE HIM - REFUSED THEIR NOODLES / THEY CAME WITH THEIR PLATES TO HELP IN THE FIGHT / TO AN ENDEVAOUR THAT BROUGHT ITHACA BACK TO LIGHT.
Honoré Daumier
Le retour d'Ulysses. / Aux portes du palais, son caniche fidèle / Seul de ses vieux amis le reconnut soudain, / Et fut, sublime instinct! s'emparer d'une écuelle / Pour seconder Ulysse en son rusé dessein. / (Odyssée, Poésies légères de Mr. Vatout.)
1841
