What does the list think of this reading of the line, "The ant's a centaur
in his dragon world: the ant is "ego scriptor," the ant fleeing the
anthill of Europe in an earlier Canto. He thinks he is the wise centaur in
his world of fantasy. Ironic, self-deprecating, followed by "Pull down thy
vanity," which is NOT  addressed to the U.S. Army.
