fore we close our eyes, we will bequealh to our
posterity the remembrance, that although cru

convinced US both by words and deeds that they
were really our friends; we will teach our chill
dren that Philheenic women aided Greece by
their sympathetic efforts, and lent her all pos
sible assistance; that they rejoiced with the wo-
men OF Greece when their country triumphed,
and wept with them at her misfortunes, and
that, in word, they really became Greeks in
their wishes for our prosperity.
owe shall leave as an advice to our country
women to pray that no harm may happen to
those who are without cause our enemies,
that they may be permitted TO live and see the
victory and triumph of Greece, which they SO
shatnefully and unreasonably prosecuted; for we
think they will be sufficiently punished by the
reproaches of their conscience, by the opprobri-
um which will be attached to their names, and
by the infamous and dishonorable inheritance
which they will leave TO their children.
"We will command them, generous friends Of
Greece, 10 praise and celebrate on every occa-
sion, the love YOU have shewn our country;
never to forget the gratitude they owe you, and
TO hand it down TO their children. Although
we do not as yet wear on our bosoms medal

ness is engraved on the tablets of our hearts,
and that your mueh-loyed names will be the
constant theme of our admratio
