'''Context:''' Cassius ordered his freedman to kill him (an usual mode of suicide in those days), which he executed by severing his head from his body. Brutus, after having taken an affectionate leave of his friends and having assured them, that he was only angry with fortune for his country’s sake, since he esteemed himselt in his death more happy than his conquerors, advised them to provide for their own safety; and then retiring he used the assistance of his intimate Strato to run his sword through his body. This is Plutarch’s account in his life. But Dion Cassius (Lib. XLVII.) puts the words of disappointment and chagrin into Brutus’s mouth at his death making him quote a passage from Euripides in his Hercules furens. “O wretched virtue, thou art a bare name! I mistook thee for a substance. But thou thyself art the slave of Fortune.”</ref><ref>Forbes Winslow, ''The Anatomy of Suicide'' (1840), "Suicides of the ancients", page 12 ([https://books.google.pl/books?id=a3dCAAAAIAAJ&pg=PA12&dq=%22O+wretched+Virtue%22 ~~page~~Google], [http://archive.org/stream/anatomyofsuicide00winsrich#page/12/mode/2up Archive]). '''Context:''' Plutarch makes Brutus die most stoically. After having taken an affectionate leave of his friends, and having assured them that he was only angry with fortune for his country’s sake, since he esteemed himself in his death more happy than his conquerors, he advised them to provide for their own safety. He then retired, and, with the assistance of Strato, he ran his sword through his body. Dion Cassius (Lib. xlvii) represents Brutus as far from acting the stoic at his last moments. He is said just before his death to have quoted the following passage from Euripides – “O wretched virtue! thou art a bare name! I mistook thee for a substance; but thou thyself art the slave of fortune.”</ref> ? (Latin)<ref>John Owen, ''Diatriba de Divina Justitia'' (1658)</ref> * ?
