Euclid


Angling from eternity

to eternity to

eternity

 

Papyrus Oxyrhynchus 29,

discovered 1897, Pennsylvania

 

If a straight line be cut

into equal

and unequal segments

[…] equal to the square on the half

 

He was convicted by Ælfwald

smuggling liquor, narcotics

from Juteland to Norfolk

 

Set down his pen

set down

this hook

 

<0, Sa; if a ≠ b, then Sa ≠ Sb>

 

Set fire to his craft

and drowned

say Euclid

(Reign of Ptolemy I)

 

First Plato

then Spinoza
