參考譯文

亞當和夏娃男耕女織時,又有誰是紳士呢?

上帝造人之初,把所有的人都造得彼此相同,我們被束縛、奴役,都是萬惡之人不公正的壓榨帶來的。因為如果上帝一開始就要創造奴隸,他必定會指定誰為奴隸,誰該享有自由。因此我勸你們考慮,上帝為我們指定的時刻現已到來,現在(隻要你們願意)就可以擺脫身上的枷鎖,重獲自由了。因此我建議你們深思,鼓足勇氣,就像一個精明的農夫,先耕耘田地,再拔除扼殺莊稼的惡草一樣,你們也可以先消滅國王的大貴族,然後清除那些法官、律師、探子和一切與平民百姓作對的人。隻有這樣,在未來的某一天,你們才能獲得和平與安寧。除掉那些大人物後,就能得到平等自由,不會再有高低貴賤的等級差別。你們將得到在一切事物上的同等尊嚴和權威。
