_Codicil of the 4th Vendémiaire, Year II._
_of the Republic._
In the name of the Father, of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
Receive, O Lord, the sacrifice of my life; I give my spirit into thy
hands. Help me, O my God! Leave me not when my strength fails.
I have always lived, and hope by the grace of God to die, in the Roman
Catholic Apostolic religion.
I forgive all my enemies (if I have any) from the bottom of my heart; I
pray that God may grant them his fullest pardon.
