[207]
Does
not this man, then, deserve, if possible, not one but three sentences of death,
because, standing by himself, and of course with no expectation of crushing you,
but rather of meeting his own doom in this court, if you do justice as you
ought, he nevertheless imitated that crime, and attempted to release men whom
the tribunals have imprisoned, by his impudent enactment that if the penalty of
imprisonment has already been inflicted, or if you hereafter inflict it, upon
any man, that man shall be discharged from prison?
