“O'er both their marks it flew; till fiercely flung From Polypoetes' arm the discus sung: Far as a swain his whirling sheephook throws, That distant falls among the grazing cows, So past them all the rapid circle flies: His friends, while loud applauses shake⟳ the skies, With force⟳ conjoin'd heave off the weighty prize.”
“For the shepherd of that unhappy sheepfold also had climbed up some other way before he knew how to hold⟳ a sheephook, till, week after week, the hungry sheep looked up and were not fed.”
