I will not do it; I offer you peace.

I forget your injuries; I put up with your insults; but on one condition, that is, you join me in opposing the factions which distract our country, and, the most dangerous of all, that of La Fayette: this pseudo-hero of the two worlds, who, after having been present at the revolution of the New World, has only exerted himself here in arresting the progress of liberty in the old hemisphere.

You, Brissot, did not you agree with me that this chief was the executioner and assassin of the people, that the massacre of the Champ-de-Mars had caused the Revolution to retrograde for twenty years?
Is this man less redoubtable because he is at this time at the head of the army?
No.

Hasten then! Let the sword of the laws strike horizontally at the heads of great conspirators.

The news which has arrived to us from the army is of threatening import.
