[219]
Bear all this in mind and
memory so long as you sit in that box. Dismiss all the fallacious reasons they
will allege; do not allow them to be uttered. Tell them to show you the clause
in which he has proposed a trial, or the clause that punishes a man duly
convicted of murder. If he had provided for the due punishment of a man tried
and found guilty elsewhere, or if he had himself proposed a trial to determine
whether homicide has been committed or not, and if so whether justifiably or
not, he would have done no wrong.
