How Great Are The Dangers I Face

How Great Are The Dangers I Face To Win A Good Name In Athens.

Bury My Body And Don't Build Any Monument. Keep My Hands Out So The People Know The One Who Won The World Had Nothing In Hand When He Died.

Shall I Pass By And Leave You Lying There Because Of The Expedition You Led Against Greece, Or Shall I Set You Up Again Because Of Your Magnanimity And Your Virtues In Other Respects?

Now You Fear Punishment And Beg For Your Lives, So I Will Let You Free, If Not For Any Other Reason So That You Can See The Difference Between A Greek King And A Barbarian Tyrant, So Do Not Expect To Suffer Any Harm From Me. A King Does Not Kill Messengers.

Every Light Is Not The Sun.
