Read the selection below from Gulliver’s Travels by Jonathan Swift and answer the question that follows. Caesr freely confessed to me that the greatest actions of his own life were not equal, by many degrees, to the glory of taking it away. I had the honor to have much conversation with Brutus; and was told that his ancestor Junius, Socrates, Epaminondas, Cato the Younger, Sir Thomas More, and himself, were perpetually together: a sextumvirate to which all the ages of the world cannot add a seventh. Which excerpt from the passage above illustrates allusion?
