The Cyclops is compared to Zeus because of his size. The Cyclops is compared to Zeus because of his power. The Cyclops is compared to a mast, or flagpole, because of his surrender.

This section is not adequate to portray the activities that Rolfe did during his youth and adulthood, but rather to portray his years of old age, close to his date of death.
