Ides of March

Post by Naga_Fireball »

Greetings!
Take me to your litre.

Anyhow CNN website said yesterday, last week a hiker in Israel found a hyper rare (2 of 2!!) solid gold coin depicting the Divine Caesar, or iirc, Caesar Augustus -- nephew of Julius Caesar for whom Shakespeare named his famous play..

"Caesar! Caesar, beware the ides of march!"
"Who is it that calls me? I hear a voice shriller than all the instruments in the orchestra!"
"Tis a soothsayer, Caesar, bidding you beware the ides of march."
Brotherhood falls asunder at the touch of fire!
He finds his fellow guilty of a skin
Not coloured like his own, and having power
To enforce the wrong, for such a worthy cause
Dooms and devotes him as his lawful prey.
~William Cowper
