Excerpt from Seneca's Morals, by Way of Abstract: To Which Is Added, a Discourse, Under the Title of an After-Thought
And again; as Seneca has it in the books of Moral Phi los0phy, 'f He 18 the brave man, whose splendor and authority IS the least part of his greatness, that can look death ln the face without trouble or surprise who, if his body were to be broken upon the wheel, or melted lead to be poured down his throat, would be less concerned fo1 the pain itself than for the dignity of bear in it.
