13
Do not thou share the madness of thy brethren: but give regard to the king, and save thyself.
14

15
By the blessed death of my brethren, and the eternal punishment of the tyrant, and the glorious life of the pious, I will not repudiate the noble brotherhood.
16
Invent, O tyrant, tortures; that you may learn, even through them, that I am the brother of those tormented before.
