"These leaders who support the take down of the cabal
will be remembered as heroes for all history to come."
XXVII
Then out spake brave Horatius,
The Captain of the Gate:
To every man upon this earth
Death cometh soon or late.
And how can man die better
Than facing fearful odds,
For the ashes of his fathers,
And the temple of his gods."

One yields the blade of Perseus.
First in battle at dawn's lighting,
No scars mar his marble back.
Long will we sing his praises.
Long will we mourn his fall.
