Romans,—Brutal force has overcome your city, but it has
not changd or vanquished your rights. Tile Roman Re-
public line eternal and inviolable, in the suffrages of the
tree who proclaimed it, and in the spontaneous adhesion of
all elements of the state—in the faith of the people who have
prolonged oar defence, and in the blood of the martyrs who
fell for it under your Wills. Our invaders have betrayed all
their premises; God will betray them. Remain constant and
firm is the faith during the short trial to which you are now
'spoiled, and despair not of the future. Short is the dura-
tion of violence, and certain mast be the triumph of a people
who hope, fight, and suffer for the cause of justice and for
that of true liberty.
You have given many proofs of military daring—give now
leash of civil courage.
Sy all that is sacred• with you, citizens, do not yield
either to bane tear or stupid egethre. Make visible to the
world the separation that exists between you and your
betrayers. Let Rome be their wimp, but not their city ;
sad let the IMMO of baiter Nome be given to him who,
contrary to his hamar and conscience, has any dealings
with the enemy. The necessities of Europe will not permit
Rome to biome the conquest of name or of another wales.
Let their occupation have all the character of a conquest.
