The main thing the "beggar" tells Penelope is that Odysseus is alive. He says that he has met Odysseus on his travels. Penelope isn't convinced that the beggar is telling the truth and asks him for proof which the beggar presents in the form of the perfect description of Odysseus. Penelope is then so moved that she starts to cry.

Answer:
The sentence explains a time of struggling when we get nothing at the end and are brought back to our past or near past. Like a boat which is continuously rowed but is found at the same place at the end of the day.
Explanation:
This refers to the dualities of Gatsby and America. Nick is saying he will get into Gatsby's boat, the one that only sailed backwards on the sea of history--into the past to recapture his childhood dreams.
This book was written in 1922 and accordingly it was a time of struggling. In the boat rowing a continuous struggle is required to move it forward, likewise a continuous struggle was required in 1922 to improve the country's situation. But everything seemed useless as the struggle took them to their past to a place from where they had begun.
