can not see that way Socrates
I do
not want to see me crying said Phaedrus.
Only
Socrates was serene and calm
he
said that no one knows what is best
for
him who dies.
He
does not know that goes while those who will live
they
do not know what awaits them.
Socrates
drank the Hemlock
as
if he drank a glass of wine,

and unruffled followed the path
of
Destiny replied Plato.
He
is the first man in history
who
died for his ideas,
the
first man who died for what he believed.

be
caught fire. Fire fighters were running like crazy

was burning down, all run distraught be saved,

and
immediately drew great evacuation plan.
Nero

and
the guitar in his hands waiting his friends,
The
gardens of wealthy Mecene.
Fumes
they covered the sky of city,
what
a terrible night and this.
Nero
went up splendid in the tallest tower
the
garden to see what happens.
From
here I see better the fire that rages
under
my legs.
Recite
to you verses that will remain in the centuries,
with
divine inspiration I will sing the burning Troy,
in
ecstasy with the help of Apollo

of
Logoustas.
What
do you suggest Tigelino
what
to do to be saved.
Praetorian

not want to spill fraternal blood.
Nero

flooded
the room, something to do.
Oh

Let
me close the wound with this handkerchief.
I
hear steps of soldiers sounding
as
death drums coming to get me.

upside
down, then leaned over and died.
He
died as Emperor
as
Julius Caesar
