Often The Test Of Courage Is Not

Thou Knowest Not The Endless Artifices Of A Court. Invented Crimes Are Often There Alleged; But Real Ones, And Those Especially, Which May Offend His Pride, Are Oftentimes Not To A King Divulged.

Alas, 'tis Force Alone That Can Compel To Virtuous Actions A Degenerate People.

A Conquering King Will Banish From His Breast Hatred Towards One Whom He No Longer Fears.

Ofttimes The Test Of Courage Becomes Rather To Live Than To Die.

Heaven Takes Care That No Man Secures Happiness By Crime.
