In the next line again the poet describes the eel with yet another object – lasso. Now this term is used to describe its mouth and tail. The nose of a lasso signifies the mouth of the eel and the pipe of lasso resembles the tail of the eel. Also interesting is the use of word Ouroboros. The connection of this word is in the line of almost human skin. Like snake biting its tail, the poet wants to convey that we humans are trapped in our worldly pleasures and are in an illusion.
