sion de vengar la muerte de los su-
yos. El propio Tarquino le cnvio "a
Delfos con Sis hijos para que les sir
viese de diversion.
Cuando ocurrio la tragica muerte de
Lucrecia, Bruto sc despojo de su mas
cara para ser cl iniciador de Ia revo-
En- efecto, con el puiial que habia EN-
pleado la virtuosa matrona, empufia-

que luchar frecuentemente contra los

por patricios desleales, entire los cua-

Bruto ordeno y presenci6 la muerte de
todos ellos.
