Answer:

"Get thee back into the tempest and the Night's Plutonian shore!

On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door;

An allusion is a reference to an object or a circumstance from an unrelated context. This reference tends to be done indirectly, and usually without explanation, so that the reader can make the connection by himself. In this case, the "Plutonian shore" refers to the afterlife (guarded by Pluto), while the bust of Pallas refers to the goddess of wisdom, Athena.

The following question references the novel The Call of the Thild by Jack London
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

The word "idle" could also be described as "pointless" in the context. It basically means that John Thornton knows it is pointless to come between Hal (the fool) and his "folly" (meaning a lack of good sense), or his decision of making the tired dogs run on thin ice. Thornton probably thinks it is useless to intervene because Hal won't listen to common sense. Hal has already made a number of bad decisions on the trip, including not knowing how to properly ration food for the dogs.
