As shown in the picture: Ulysses, put to his last trick to avoid going to Troy, pretended to be mad, and yoking a horse and a bull to the plough began to plough the sea sand. Palamedes, suspecting the genuineness of his attack, put his son Telemachus on the sand in the line of his furrow, and Ulysses, showing sense enough to turn aside, was forced to confess his trick.
