is why the voice of god and I was not banned because I, against my accusers, against those who have condemned me, I have no hard feelings, though they have me charged and convicted with no this intention, but to hurt me: in this are to blame. But I want them to pray for one thing: when my children are grown up, punish them, citizens, stategli behind as I was with you, if you will see that are more concerned with wealth or other material goods of virtue, and if you think they are worth something then nothing without Valer, rimproverateli, as I am reproached you, for what they do not care and, instead, should take care, if they believe to be " great men "and then they are nothing. If you do this, me and my children we have had from you what is right. But it has come, now, time to go, I die, you live. Those of us who go to a better fate, no one knows, except God
