[264]
What treatment does a man, who recovered his
high spirits on the death of a thousand of his fellow-citizens, deserve at the
hands of the survivors? I shall omit a great many other facts that I might
relate; for I do not think that I ought to recount glibly all his discreditable
and infamous qualities, but only such as I may mention without discredit to
myself.
