Eft-soons a sound strange to the realms of Dis, Roll'd o'er the Ninefold River to the hall Wherein, returned, sate Pluto ; loathed sound Of laughter mocking woe.
What daring ghosts by impious mirth profane The sanctity of Hades ?' asked thg King.
Answered a Shape that just before the Three Had brought a conqueror's soul, UpQn the earthward margin of the St}TC, Merry as goat-song makes wine-tippling boors, Shoulder on shoulder pressing, the pale mob Drink into greedy ears Death and Sisyplms, 'jj... ' The quips and cranks of an unburied droll Fresh from Greek suns, named Sisyphus. Dread King, Charon, provoked to mutiny by mirth.
Swears he will break his oars ' Unless thou free him from the ribald wit Which stings him as the gadfly lo stung.' As Sisyphus, unburied, could not come To Pluto— Pluto went.
Striding the Ninefold stream, to Sisy]3hus.
' Cease thy vile mime-tricks,' said the Laughterless, ' Or dread the torments doom'd to laughter here.' ' Pluto,' replied the knave, ' There are no torments, by thy righteous law, To any ghost until his case be judged ; But to be judged he must have crossed the Styx : The unburied cannot cross.
