| Back | Women, children, and ecclesiastics, as they cannot defend themselves, though they may receive offence cannot be insulted, because between the offence and the insult there is, as your excellence very well knows, this difference: the insult comes from one who is capable of offering it, and does so, and maintains it; the offence may come from any quarter without carrying insult. |

| Front | Las mujeres, los niños y los eclesiásticos, como no pueden defenderse, aunque sean ofendidos, no pueden ser afrentados; porque entre el agravio y la afrenta hay esta diferencia, como mejor Vuestra Excelencia sabe: la afrenta viene de parte de quien la puede hacer, y la hace y la sustenta; el agravio puede venir de cualquier parte, sin que afrente. |
