Some answer, We shall do what others do. These are words of cowards, and they will do harm. Moreover, I will not submit to it also because I have taken an oath in the name of God.

None can swim with another s buoy.
We are to swim with our own strength. In a similar spirit, everyone should answer, I don t care what others do, but I for my part will not submit to the law.

Everyone has to think over all this. This is no time for fear or secrecy.
