AT school we were taught that parents
had very limited authority over their
children. whom, according to the law,
they had no right to chastise,' his letter
says. THAT theft committed to the det-
riment Of parents was not theft. and
that the law could not punish us for it.
AS I was already inclined to evil, all
these ideas which I had expressed-that
all men ought to be equal. that there
ought not to be any rich-only excited
me, who had already too much inclina-
ton in that direction. and this was the
cause of my first offense.
But this offense, which has cut me of
from society, has become a blessing to
me, for it is in this prison at LIE Mans,
where I am writing these lines. that

what life really is. I confess that l

that these lines could serve as a lesson to
