Thought mythical Odysseus.
All together, Ithacans and others were
on the-same-boat
Erotic Nostos brought us in Signoria
said resourcaful Odysseus.

Goddess Fog sucks Venice as a fierce
dragon
with huge mouth replied Helen Foskari.
An unearthly conqueror ends up each
freedom
Dressed in white death.
Black Rider rounded us wearing silver
armors.
Countless soldiers walking on the sea.
Come with me said Helen resourceful
Helen- Eleni
and caught Ulysses from the hand.
The bow of t boat crossed-Nebbia-(fog)
like flying in clouds with wings of
Cupid.
Beautiful Helen you are a goddess
- a fairy
Hearing the lapping of the waves-wind
blowing,
How do you kiss so passionately-'re a

magic.
mythical lovers planeftikan from
multimode Fog.
Who are multymode Ulysses
An invincible warrior-an irresistible
lover.
Two lovers experienced the communion of
love,
The figures took the unusual-volumes
diverse dimensions.
THE ISLAND OF SAN LATSARO
After the Greeks nobody can ignore the
Greeks.
The son of Laertes never spoke-never
said
What happened when he turned behind in
Ithaca.
Multimode Penelope had to deal with over
a hundred Suitors.
Wretched and lustful clan ate and drank
at the palace
Shattering the royal estate.
The shameless Suitors pressed the
faithful Penelope
To choose one of them for husband.
8
They said that tortured Odysseus - King
of Ithaca
Lost to foreign-nobody knew whether he
lived or died.
One day resourceful Penelope cried
suitors Fiancees,
And she said that whoever manages to
stretch the string
of the bow,
And pass an arrow through twelve axes
forked,
He wins-will become her husband-the new
king of Ithaca.
Suitors immediately accepted
ordeal
But nobody has been able to stretch the
chord of arc.
Resourceful Odysseus realized that now
is the time
He stood up and asked to try his luck.
A ragged old man has managed the
impossible,
He took his arc -breathe deeply
and stretched the nerves- chord with
power,
Then he put the arrow and it has left
the bow
Penetrating the chippers without firing
anyone.
Everyone was speechless looking at one
another.
Suitors are caught in the trap set up
the resourceful Penelope.
The-Same-bow was the murder weapon.
With the help of his son Telemachus
killed the brainless
Fiancees.. Became savage massacre-no one
was spared.
Ithaca saved from civil war-won throne
And his wife Penelope divine.
In between came ιn the garden of monastery of San Latsaro
And the Greeks Brotherhood - the
Ithakisios -Michelangelo
The Abbot Maximus Roussos-and many
monks.
Holy abbot
We will never forget
What you did for us.
You put in jeopardy the Monastery
Said multiform Ulysses .
MAXIMOS ROYSSOS – ABBOT OF ABBEY SAN
LATSARO
Some sovereigns of Venice
They do not want another engagement with
Turks.

Even if they are not opposite
with the Revolution of Greeks.
Nobody in Serene wants Turks.
For Venetians first came the
interest and then the faith.
The revolution of Greeks created
the second big wave of exile
afterwards Fall of Constantinople.
Greeks scattered to the ends of the
Universe.
Ithakisioi chartered a boat - loaded
into munitions
and weapons and started with
destination beleaguered Missolonghi.
The freedom fighters crossed great
canal withe ship
When two shadows or two ghosts made
sense to stop.
Lord Byron and Dionysios Solomos-two
poets
warriors of Messolonghi climbed aboard
and said with sadness.
It's late, too late for Messolonghi
The poets told what happened to
witness-town at-Output-Expense.
The Greek warriors were thrown into
battle shouting
FREEDOM OR DEATH
And fell heroically from the vaccines of
Turks.
I Gave in Greece the property, my time,
Now I gave also my life said Byron.
Whoever dies today dies a thousand times
.
Saturday Night -to Sunday of Vaios -Palm
became the heroic - EXIT.
A wild slaughter – a merciless war burst
out without limits.
Opponents fought with bare swords
killing opponents mercilessly.
A terrible explosion the most critical
moment made the night -day.
The old man Kapsalis shook
gunpowder in air,
And then Joseph the windmill, they took
together thousands of Turks.
Chieftain Mark Botsaris - Present
Athanasios Razikostas-General - Absent
Fell heroically fighting.
Kitsos Tzavelas - chieftain-Present

DUEL IN T SQUARE OF SAINT
MARK
FOR BEAUTIFUL HELEN
The rebellious Greeks - a company -
Stratioti-
Multiform Ulysses and Ithacans
came
toward the center of square from the
side of St. Mark's.
Doge Ntantolo the Suitors of Venice was
the opposite side.
Greeks had revolted against Turks
And lovers of Venice believed that
multiform Odysseus
Kept by force the daughter of duke
Franzesko Foskari,
beautiful Helen-Eleni.
The grap of Helen was the cause of
Trojan War
I hope will not happen-the
Same-let free the women.
Brave-Stratioti-If you do not discipline
this means death.
Resourceful Odysseus answered that
Helen
was there because she wanted it.
No one did not steal famous Venetians
The Turks are the common enemy, Venice
is the second home.
who completed me said Helen
Foskari
Who will understand me-what I want- if
I'm in love.
Multiform Helen unfairly mock
suitors of Venice
Replied Casanova - the biggest lover in
Signoria.
It's time to choose who you want for
man
And let the games of love.
Resourceful Odysseus can not keep Helen
with deceit.
MURDER OF SUITORS in Ithaca was to
protect the throne,
And my wife faithful Penelope.
Now we have to defend the freedom of
another woman
And a whole nation.
The voices - the screams of
warriors roused Venetians,
And all ran in Square.
11
Do not look at from where comes the
death
does not look at from where leaves the
Life
The bodies of lads fell under dead.
On the battle Giacomo Casanova beat
unwittingly
Beautiful Helen with his sword in
breast.
A knight would never beat a woman
shouted.
An accident was answered Helen
Somebodies wanted to die to save Venice.
Multimode Odysseus ran saying-let to see
the injury
care your wound . A superficial wound
was gone-closed.
Helen Foskari was saved upright
All together Greeks and Venetians broke
into applause.
Mythical Odysseus is useless to continue
the fight
said Ntantolo , unfairly lost so many
lives.
I have no objection Big Doge
replied divine Odysseus.
Only sorry lads, my heart is torn
When I see the corpses of
warriors.
Greeks never forgot-how Serene accepted
refugees
Became the second home-the Other
Byzantium.
Therefore accept a gift.
The warriors of Greek Code
went into lifeless corpses,
And with the tips of swords formed the
shape of a cross,
And Venetians became well but
could not make nothing.
You have the power to restore the dead
to life
Asked Ntantolo.
The blows were not fatal, only lost
consciousness.
Multimode Ulysses and you tormented
Greeks
Just proof that you are worthy children
of Serenissima.
All Venetians ran to embrace and
congratulate
the resourceful GREEKS.
This is the Democracy of Big Time
This is the story.
