Even though the law requires, you must refrain from killing a person thoughtlessly, on the pretext of complying with the law; even when someone offends the law, it doesn't matter to commute a penalty by taking the circumstances into consideration.' |
「定りは宜しくても、其法を守るとして、却て軽々しく人をころす事あり、よくよく慎むべし。たとひ少々法にはづるる事ありとも、ともかく情実をよく勘へて軽むる方は難なかるべし。」 |
