Strange at first sight as appears the proposition that the Massacre of St. Bartholomew, the order for which was given by Charles IX., was not the result of his will, and that it was only in his fancy that the command he had given was the cause of it, and that the Borodino slaughter of eighty thousand men was not due to Napoleon's will (though he gave the order for the commencement of the battle), and that it was only his fancy that it was his doing, strange as this proposition appears, yet human dignity, that tells us that every one of us is neither more nor less a man than Napoleon, bids us admit that solution of the question, and historical researches abundantly confirm the proposition.

有一种看法乍一看来很奇怪，那就是：巴托洛缪之夜的屠杀事件，虽然发命令的是查理九世，但不是按照他的意志发生的，他不过觉得是他命令这样做的；波罗底诺八万人的大屠杀事件也不是按照拿破仑的意志发生的（虽然开战及战斗中的命令都是他发出的），他不过觉得命令是他发布的罢了，——不管这个看法多么奇怪，但是，人的尊严告诉我，我们每一个人，作为一个人来说，纵然不比伟大的拿破仑强，无论如何不会比他差多少，人的尊严叫我们这样看问题，历史的研究也充分肯定了这种看法。

We have no common name for a mime of Sophron or Xenarchus and a Socratic Conversation; and we should still be without one even if the imitation in the two instances were in trimeters or elegiacs or some other kind of verse--though it is the way with people to tack on 'poet' to the name of a metre, and talk of elegiac-poets and epic-poets, thinking that they call them poets not by reason of the imitative nature of their work, but indiscriminately by reason of the metre they write in.

索夫农 、森那库斯和苏格拉底式的对话采用的模仿没有一个公共的名称；三音步诗、挽歌体或其他类型的诗的模仿也没有——人们把&诗人&这一名词和格律名称结合到一起，称之为挽歌体诗人或者史诗诗人，他们被称为诗人，似乎只是因为遵守格律写作，而非他们作品的模仿本质。
