Euthanasia dei Adimari quotes

Florence was free, and Dante was a Florentine; none but a freeman could have poured forth the poetry and eloquence to which I listened

I had rather woo the lion in his den to be my husband, than become the bride of a conqueror.

As the enemy of Florence I will never be yours

She was never heard of more; even her name perished.

Earth felt no change when she died; and men forgot her.
