Su piel, suave y tersa,

hacía sentir cálidas a mis manos, al tocarla;

esa piel rosada, fresca y con su aroma dulce, me envolvía.

Quise probar tan solo un pequeño bocado,

saborear y llenar mi paladar con su dulzor;

era la más deliciosa fruta que alguna vez probé,

sus carnosos labios, esa boca apetitosa,

y un néctar exquisito e inigualable.

Pero ese fruto que tantas veces

disfruté y probé,

ahora me amarga el paladar, y el corazón.

The attack yesterday morning was no stain on the honour of France, and certainly no disgrace to the fighting men of this nation. But this Court Martial is such a stain, and such a disgrace. The case made against these men is a mockery of all human justice. Gentlemen of the court, to find these men guilty would be a crime, to haunt each of you till the day you die. I can’t believe that the noblest impulse for man - his compassion for another - can be completely dead here. Therefore, I humbly beg you… show mercy to these men.
