To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Digitized by Google 223 Nero had received a very good education, and so he was familiar with the great poem of Ho'mer which tells about the war of Troy. He wished to enjoy the sight of a fire, such as Homer describes when the Greeks became masters of that city. He therefore, it is said, gave orders that Rome should be set afire, and sat up on his palace tower, watching the destruction, and singing the verses about the fall of Troy, while he accompanied himself on his lyre.
A great part of the c...ity was thus destroyed, many lives were lost, and countless people were made poor ; but the sufferings of others did not trouble the monster Nero, who delighted in seeing misery of every kind.
Ever since the crucifixion of our Lord, during the reign of Tiberius, the apostles had been busy preaching the gospel. Peter and Paul had even visited Rome, and talked to so many people that there were by this time a large number of Roman Christians.
The Christians, who had been taught to love one .an- other, and to be good, could not of course approve of the wicked Nero's conduct.
