All his music drove the silence in between the notes. At the age of 35 Amadeus Mozart fell ill.

His final illness was spent writing his Requiem: his meditation upon death.

He was nursed by his wife, Constanze. Was he poisoned by Salieri?

Who knows? Salieri was proud. The sin of pride is the sin of sins.

It was this sin which transformed Lucifer, an anointed cherub of God,

The very "seal of perfection, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty,"

Into Satan, the devil, the father of lies, the one for whom Hell itself was created.

Mozart was interred in a common grave, a pauper’s grave,at Sankt Marxer Friedhof, Vienna.

Salieri,Süssmayr,van Swietem and two other musicians were present.

They were assured of his death and breathed more easily as a consequence.

The tale of a storm and snow on his burial day is false, another lie;

The day was calm and mild for all the crowds of absent mourners.
