His disciples, draped in their woolen cloaks,

In myrtles and flowers grouped at random,

Received in their hearts, mute and breathless.

The balm that flowed from the old man’s lips.

And beneath the sarcasms, the clamors of ignorance, the vociferations of hatred, the gibes of ministerial prevaricators, the had retired to the Aventine Mount of the iniquitous capital to live there as a cenobite, nourished by the pure wheat of magnanimous ideas, drinking nothing but the hydromel of generous dreams.

But the day came when human beings finally perceived that their own interests and those of Nature are implacably antagonistic. The hour sounded when they understood that, by virtue of having proliferated without measure, and amusing themselves by proclaiming, to the extent of the extinction of all lyricism, the beauty and bounty of Isis, their pitiless enemy, they had not emerged from the cycle of barbarism, had not been able to do what, since their advent, the laborious ants and musical bees had achieved.

“Only the bees raise their offspring communally,” says the fourth Georgic. Children raised communally, with no privileges, that is definitive civilization. It was finally recognized that the maternal love that pours children into the mold of their parents’ stupidity, which hastens to revere the different sorts of cretinism in honor in the epoch, and the instinct of servitude inherent in any conglomerate of individuals, had been until then the two principal obstacles to the duration of the equitable City.

After the great upheaval of communism, Societies became perspicacious. All laws were abolished, and the superiority of one individual over another having been decreed to be abusive, humans no longer bent their knees or bowed their heads before their fellows.

In the wake of a reciprocal agreement, the Nations immersed in mid-Ocean, at a depth of four thousand feet, all the gold and metallic money—sources of so many crimes—that they had. Any citizen found guilty of having removed a part of it, however minimal, from the common destruction, was immediately punished by death, the agreed general interest. Soon, by the force of circumstance, as the possession of an effigy-embossed coin could no longer serve any purpose whatsoever, except to attract legitimate punishment the thieves destroyed what they had stolen of their own accord.

Then the Societies no longer had any but the children whose well-being they could ensure, whom they procreated prudently and selectively. A human race improved in intelligence and physique, exonerated, so far as possible, from ancestral flaws, took the place of the preceding one, engendered under the pressure of instinct, by the hazard of couplings and the supremacy of bestial drives. The Hellenic conception of Beauty was realized without further delay, thanks to the work of commentators on the Antiquity that, after having recovered the formula so many times, had finally had it accepted as the ideal. Youths clad in white wool were brought up at the expense of Just Communities, and in the palaestras, their foreheads circled by flowering reeds, threw the discus as in the time of Plato, coming thereafter to
