READING HISTORY A Laconic Answer The Spartans (спартаниы) lived in that part of southern Greece called Laconia. Sometimes people call them Spartans and sometimes Laconians. Those people were very brave and their way of life (1) was veiy simple. One of their rules (правила) was that they must always speak very briefly (кратко) using no more words than were necessary. To this day (2), we often call a short answer laconic; that is, such an answer as a Laconian might give. There was in northern Greece a land called Macedon, ruled over (3) by a king, Philip by name. Philip wanted to become head of all Greece. He had a great army and conquered state after state. But although his strength was so great, Laconia remained free. When Philip reached Laconia he sent a letter to the brave Spartans saying, "If I conquer your country, I will level your great city to the ground". (4) In a few days he saw the answer brought to him. On opening the letter he found only one word written in it That word was IF. PROVERBS Life is not all cakes and ale. Accidents will happen in the best regulated families. There is many a slip between the and the lip. 185 |
