Quocirca nihil magis in tota tua liberalitate laudaverim, quam quod congiarium das de tuo, alimenta de tuo, neque a te liberi civium ut ferarum catuli sanguine et caedibus nutriuntur; quodque gratissimum est accipientibus, sciunt dari sibi quod nemini sit ereptum, locupletatisque tam multis pauperiorem esse factum principem tantum.
And so nothing in your generosity commands my admiration so much as the fact that these donations and allowances are paid from your own purse, so that the nations children are not fed like wild beasts cubs on blood and slaughter; and what is most welcome to the recipient is his knowledge that no one has been robbed to provide for him, that there is one alone who is the poorer for so many thus enriched'his prince.
