Laurence Hutton adopts tone of
facetious humor occasionally when
writing of the ancients. Here is a
sample of his style:
All students will remember that
Julius Caesar announced that all
Gaul was divided into three parts,
each of which, with all the gall in
his possession, he attached to him.
self This celebrated man of letters,
against the advice of his wife, Cal

a famous March morning, from the
Regia, close to the Temple of Vesta
in the Forum, and here his widow
received his body, brought back
with all its gaping wounds by few
of his faithful slaves. Alas, it was
too late for her to tell him that she
had told him SO, but no doubt in all
her great grief she thought it.
