OF CATO (3) by LUCIUS ANNAEUS SENECA

First Line: THE HAND OF SACRED CATO, BADE TO TEAR
Last Line: "AND IS THERE AUGHT GREAT CATO CANNOT DO?"
Subject(s): CATO THE YOUNGER (95-46 B.C.);
THE hand of sacred Cato, bade to tear
His breast, did start, and the made wound forbear;
Then to the gash he said, with angry brow,
"And is there aught great Cato cannot do?"
