Then he added cogita- tively that, if it were thought necessary, Anicetus and his sailors could finish the work already begun. Thus Burrhus gave the same advice as Seneca, but he, like his colleague, meant to pass on to Nero 123 some one else the task of execution. He chose better than Seneca: Anicetus, if Agrippina Hved, ran a serious risk of becoming the scapegoat of all this affair. In fact, as soon as Nero gave his as- sent, Anicetus and a few sailors hastened to the villa of Agrippina and ...stabbed her. The crime was abominable. Nero and his circle were so awed by it that they attempted to make the people believe that Agrippina had committed suicide, when her conspiracy against her son's life had been discovered. This was the official version of Agrippina 's death, sent by Nero to the Senate. But this audacious mystification had no success. The public divined the truth, and roused by the voice of their age-long instincts, they cried out that the Emperor no less than any peasant of Italy must revere his father and his mother.
