De poena possum equidem dicere, id quod res habet, in luctu atque miseriis mortem aerumnarum requiem, non cruciatum esse, eam cuncta mortalium mala dissolvere, ultra neque curae neque gaudio locum esse.
Concerning the penalty, I can indeed say, in keeping with the facts of the matter, that amid grief and wretchedness death is a relief from woes, not torment; that it puts an end to all mortal ills and leaves no room either for anxiety or for joy.
