Archimedes - the First Pioneering Streaker of History !

Friends , I present to you a slice of History about the ancient Greek scientist and mathematician Archimedes , who ran naked across the street of Syracuse , in his birthday suit, after he discovered the Theory of Buoyancy , with which he could find out the quantity of pure gold in the Kings crown ! Kindly read my 'Prose poetry' ! Archimedes: The First Pioneering Streaker Of History ! ( Prose Poetry) There lived in the third century BC, in the Sicilian town of Syracuse, A Greek mathematician called Archimedes. He was tasked by King Hiero of his town, To find the purity of gold in his crown; Suspicious of the goldsmith having mixed in it , Some impure material of inferior kind, Which he wanted Archimedes to find ! Archimedes lost in thought one day, Entered the public bath on his way! And as his body began to get submerged, He happened to notice perchance , Water spilling over from the tub ! The answer suddenly flashed across his mind, And he jumped up leaving everything behind, Wearing only his birthday suit! Running through the street of Syracuse , Exclaiming, ' Eureka! Eureka! ', (I have found it! I have found it!) Perhaps to become the first streaker of History! While establishing the Principles of Buoyancy! @ Archimedes, son of Pheidias the astronomer, Studied at the great Alexandrian city, Remembered even this day for his pioneering works, In Hydrostatics, Mechanics and Geometry! With his ingenious mechanical discoveries, Held the great Roman galleys of Marcellus at bay, For more than three years, as Plutarch says! Later one day, while lost in deep thought, Trying to resolve a problem of geometry, Refused to hear Marcellus' bidding ; To be slain by the Roman soldier who had come to fetch him! O those Romans, with lesser brains and more brawns ! And some hundred and thirty years after his death, in 75 BC , Cicero, the Governor of Sicily, Found the tomb of great Archimedes, near the Agrigentine gate, Over grown with bushes and thorns , Lying buried in the scented dust of History! -Raj Nandy New Delhi @ Principle of Buoyancy = any floating object displaces its own weight of fluid ! Wt. displaced by a crown of pure gold and the one already made could be compared to find the truth !
