“juridical (sic) punishment.".......................O
Marcy        “The convention may set itself up for a jury; but
“it can be only to judge the crime, and not the
“criminal.   To pass a definitive judgment upon
“Louis is, in my opinion, an outrage against the
“definitive will of the nation.   To pronounce
“sentence of death, is an usurpation of the right
“of the Sovereign.   I will not be a judge—­I
“cannot, and I ought not to be one.
" Representatives of the people!   You have
“destroyed the despot; suffer the man to live.   Let
“him drag in captivity a groveling life.   You are
“the depositaries of French honour.   Europe has her
“eyes upon you.   Posterity is advancing.   It will
“judge you, and its voice will pass through ages.” .O

Rameau “It is not in your power to give me the quality of
             “judge, which I have not received from the
             “sovereign.  Accordingly I do not think myself
             “bound by this monstrous decree.” ..................O
