Abstract

“It is clear that the reward lies in the action itself, and that the power of the honorable to attract the minds of men is immense: Its beauty floods our minds and sweeps us along, enchanted with wonder at its brilliance and splendor.”(Seneca, De Beneficiis 22.2).He advanced to the council-table:And, “Please your honors,” said he, “I’m able,By means of a secret charm, to drawAll creatures living beneath the sun,That creep or swim or fly or run,After me so as you never saw!”(Robert Browning, The Pied Piper of Hamelin 1842).
