He was put to death by Lygdamis, the tyrant of Halicarnassus, for assisting his native town in a fight for free- dom. He was the author of a poem in 14 books and 9000 verses, entitled Beraclea {Exploits of Heracles), which led the critics of the Alexan- drian school to rank him among the five great epic poets. There are extant a few elegantly written fragments on the use and abuse of wine- drinking, which are said to resemble the elegies on the same subject by Xenophanes and Theognis. According to Suidas he was also the author of lonica ('luw/td), an elegiac poem of 7000 lines on the history of Neleus, Codrus, and the Ionian colonies. The fragments have been edited by Tzschimer (1842). and by Kinkel in the Epicorum Grcecorum Fragmenta (1877).

PAOLI, pa'6-1.', Pasqlale (1725-1807). A Corsican patriot, born at Morosaglia. His father, having taken a leading part in the insur- Tcction against the Genoese, was obliged to flee to Naples in 1739. There Paoli rec-eived an excellent education. In .July, 1755, he was sum- moned to Corsica, and elected Captain-General of the island, and the chief of a democratic government. He energetically and successfully applied himself to the reformation of the bar- barous laws and customs of the island, and at the same time to the expulsion of the Genoese, who lost, in a short time, nearly all their strong- holds. The fleet of the Genoese was also defeated and they were obliged to .seek help from France. Finally, in 17tJ8, Genoa ceded the island to France. Paoli refused all ofl'ers of the French Government, and continued to struggle for the independence of his country, but was defeated by the superior force of the Count de Vaux. and the Frencn became masters of the island. After continuing the vain .struggle for a year, Paoli was compelled to take refuge on board a British frigate, in which he sailed for England, where he was well received and granted a pension by the King (1769). Twenty years afterwards the French Revolution of 1789 retailed him to Cor- sica as lieutenant-general and military governor. Subsequently, when the island Ijecame a depart- ment, he was made president of the administra- tion and commander of the National Guard. .After the e-xecution of Louis XVI. Paoli's attitude toward the Convention changed. With the active sympathy of England, he organized in 1793 a revolt against the Convention. He was pro- scribed by that body and made general-in-chief and president of the Council by a Consulta which assembled at Corte. He now openly allied him- self with Circat Britain, and favored the landing of 2000 British troops on the island in 1794, with whose aid he drove out the French. He was forced, however, to surrender the island to the English. Disappointed in his hope of being made Viceroy, and finding his influence over the Corsi- cans gone, he retired from the island in 1790, and spent the remainder of his life in England, where he died near London, February 5, 1807. In 1889 his body was removed to Corsica and there buried with great honor and solemnity. The earliest account of Paoli is found in Boswell's Account of Corsica (Glasgow. I7C8).
